Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 27 How about a woman?
"Empress!" Hearing Chi Xinian's voice suddenly, the concubines who were arguing were startled in shock.

They hurriedly saluted Chi Xinian's blessing, and at the same time, they took steps in unison, and quietly moved half a step away from Zhou Guiren.

The disrespectful words just now were said by nobleman Zhou, and it has nothing to do with them.

Zhou Guiren probably also knew that she had spoken the wrong words outspokenly, but she was unwilling to bow her head when facing Chi Xinian.Gritting her teeth, she still braced herself and raised her chin and said: "Maybe martial arts has its own advantages, I really don't understand it, but I know that the words virtuous and virtuous have nothing to do with martial arts.

"Since the empress is in the middle palace, she should set an example for our sisters.

"You are so...really unreasonable, if you say it, you will be laughed at.

"It means that the Empress Dowager and Concubine Xue are not here. Otherwise, if you mess up like this, even if the concubine doesn't talk about it, there will be other people talking about it behind your back!"

Zhou Guiren's voice was quite low at first, but later on, perhaps because he felt that what he said made sense, he became louder.

Even when Lin Jieyu tugged at her sleeve to signal her not to speak, she also broke free from the other party's hand, unwilling to stop there.

Everyone around was scared pale by Zhou Guiren's words, except Chi Xinian, who was accused, looked calm.

She had been quietly listening to Zhou Guiren's words, and then she bent her lips and said: "The virtuous and virtuous are the models in the middle palace? Who set up such rules, and who taught you? Has the person who taught you ever said that? , what are the benefits of being such a woman?"

"Naturally, it's the rules set by the ancestors! As for the benefits..." Zhou Guiren was stuck, "Benefits... What benefits does this have? Isn't it supposed to be like this for women?! If not, who would like it?!"

She doesn't know the benefits of being virtuous and virtuous, she only knows that if she can't do this, her reputation must be bad!

"Look, you can't tell why." Chi Xinian handed the sword in his hand to the maidservant next to him, and asked them to sit down in the garden before continuing, "Actually, these things are just what others said. There are many people who say it, and you will naturally take it as the truth.

"But when you think about it carefully, these so-called demands don't make any sense.

"What kind of personality a person should have and what role they should play in life are never defined by others.

"What you like and what you want is the most important thing.

"Is it because everyone says that women's hobbies should be embroidering and playing the piano, reciting poems and making flowers, so women should like these? Maybe you can think about this question carefully."

After Chi Xinian finished speaking, she ordered the servant girl beside her to prepare water.

She didn't care about the reaction of the group of people after listening to her words, they just went to take a bath.

And it wasn't until she walked away that the people sitting at the small round stone table slowly came back to their senses.

"Your Majesty's words just now..." Concubine Qing was the first to speak out, shaking her lips and hesitating.

What Chi Xinian said just now was something they had never heard before.

As long as they can remember, everyone around them has been telling them what they should do as official ladies.What is OK and what is absolutely not.Even after being enlightened by reading, the family will tell them that women study only for talent, not for them to pursue other things.
