Chapter 253: Women are Circulating Tools?
ated, turning his head to look at Fu Zi Mo's carriage. It seemed quiet inside. After some thought and another hesitation, he said, "Alright then, I'll take him with me. I'll have my deputy lead you in...Xiao Changyue also frowned, "You've annoyed her now, do you want to ruin our plans for tomorrow"
"Tomorrow is tomorrow, today is today!" Yun Xiaoxue was unwilling to accept it.
Xiao Changyue shook his head and became even more dismissive of Yun Xiaoxue's attitude, "No wonder your little tricks didn't work. With your shallow schemes, how can you possibly compete with him He is King Wuxuan, not an ordinary mediocre man. The more you act today, the greater the chance you'll reveal a flaw and alert him! A small lack of forbearance leads to great disorder. Can't you even endure for one night"
Yun Xiaoxing was scolded by Xiao Changyue like this, her heart was also burning with anger, and she growled: "Just pray that your plan will succeed! Otherwise, I think you won't be able to keep your position as the princess! But I warn you, don't think about crossing the river and dismantling the bridge, this mansion, I will marry into it sooner or later."
After saying that, Yun Xiaoying turned and left, leaving Xiao Changyue with a resentful back.
Seeing Yun Xiaoxue like this, Xiao Changyue couldn't help but shake her head. But in her eyes was an undeniable killing intent, "With just you, a country girl from the mountains, and if it weren't for your special bloodline, would you even be worthy of bargaining with me You are greedy and insatiable, like a serpent trying to swallow an elephant, one day you will pay for your current rudeness!"
Because Xiao Changyue and Yun Xiaoying's sudden arrival, Qin Luoyan's mood for eating was affected. Especially that "father-in-law" made her heart still inevitably feel resentment, as if it were reminding her, in name, she still had a senior wife, and she, even though she received his favor, was only a concubine, a junior wife.
"What are you thinking about Are you going to feed the porridge up your nose" Fu Zi Mo saw Qin Luo Yan's absent-mindedness, his face darkened, and before she could answer, he said, "They're just some insignificant people, why would you care"
Why bother
He said it lightly, but was he really just someone unimportant
She knew about the social hierarchy in this society. Normally, it wasn't a big deal, out of sight, out of mind. But during festivals and holidays They said according to ancestral rules, during festivals and holidays, the family members of Wuxuan Wangfu had to go to the palace for a family banquet. It was said that there was a big difference between the main wife and concubines at the banquet. The concubines had to kneel and offer tea to the main wife. She really didn't dare to think about those formal occasions, whether she had the courage to face such a cruel side.
"Fu Zimo, if... I mean if, if in the future the emperor bestowed another woman upon you, would you marry her" Qin Luo'yan put down her chopsticks and still couldn't help but ask this question.
It turns out that when a person truly uses their heart, they become anxious and insecure. Even someone as rational as her started asking questions that didn't have right answers to begin with.
Fu Zimo glanced at her with a strange expression, “You’re thinking about this” His face returned to its usual calm, as he gently patted the little Imperial Tutor in his arms and nonchalantly said, “There are so many courtyards in the Prince’s Mansion, raising a few more people isn't difficult. I can tell you, it won't be if, but when. If Fu Zi Heng finds someone suitable for him, he will definitely give me a marriage proposal. On the imperial court, using this kind of reward to solidify one's position isn’t a big deal either. Especially those useful families, he always uses this method to win them over. So, in the future, there will definitely be other women in this Prince’s Mansion.”
“Yes, is that so……” Qin Luoyan’s heart gradually turned cold. She had anticipated this result before, but when it actually came out of his mouth, her heart was still not at ease. Moreover, he could say it so lightly. Did it really not matter to him whether he married a few more or a few less In the eyes of people like them, women were merely tools to be used, and whether these tools had feelings was beyond their consideration.
She didn't like the feeling at all, not one bit.
Fu Zi Mo raised an eyebrow and glanced at her again, sighed softly, and said in a gentler tone: "At most, this king promises you, I won't pay attention to those women."
Ignore them, but they do exist.
If those women were all as vicious as Xiao Changyue, he would treat them coldly as a kind of punishment. But what if those women were also abandoned by their own families, just like Qin Tiancheng wanted to marry her off to that man in his fifties If they weren't vicious, wouldn't they be innocent too Were they simply powerless against fate and destined to spend their lives alone in a small courtyard within the palace
This is the status of women in society
For Fu Zimo's words, Qin Luo'yan's mood not only did not improve in the slightest, but instead added a kind of indescribable feeling of unease.
That night, she hardly slept. After much thought, she figured out why she felt so uneasy. Perhaps it was her deep-seated belief in gender equality that was causing this. Even though she had arrived in this unfamiliar time and place, she still couldn't bring herself to live according to the rules of this society.
She wasn't a savior, nor a paladin. Yet, she couldn't simply become as numb and callous as those around her, like a walking corpse.
She felt a deep pain, as if she held the truth but was forced to live by a wrong way!
So, the next morning before dawn had broken, she got up, washed her face and brushed her teeth, and then had Mu He prepare a carriage to take her to Prince Wu Xuan's armory.
She was thinking, if one day, she, as a woman, succeeded, would that also raise the status of women in this society Although it might not completely change the patriarchal system, wouldn't raising their status even a little bit be able to change the fate of many women
She wasn't a great person, but she tried to do what she could, striving to live without regret.
As dawn was breaking, the blacksmith's workshop was still quiet. A few early birds were washing their faces in wooden basins in the yard, chatting about gossip they had heard from the kiln workers.
When Qin Luoyan brought Mu He into the courtyard, several blacksmiths hastily stopped talking and hurriedly retreated to their rooms, grumbling as they ran that on a bright morning like this, a woman would run to such a place where so many men lived, what propriety was there
Qin Luoyan suddenly ignored their reactions and, under Mu He's lead, went straight to find a foreman of the weaponry workshop. The foreman said that Zhou Li had been in a workshop all night and hadn't come out yet. Qin Luoyan immediately asked the foreman to lead the way, and several people walked towards that workshop.
