Chapter 170 Harmony
There is a lot of information in this.
One interpretation is that Chu Yu's title of top scholar will be retained, and after the ancestral worship ceremony, he can return to the Hanlin Academy in the capital to take up his post as a sixth-rank compiler.
Another one is about the marriage between Kong Xuan and Chu Hanwen.
If Kong Xuan is willing, His Majesty will grant her permission to immediately divorce Chu Hanwen.
"...So be it."
After the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, he said, "Your Excellency, Chu Yu, may receive the decree."
"Your subject Chu Yu accepts the imperial decree." Chu Yu stepped forward, took the imperial decree, and couldn't hide his excitement.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty was so merciful. Not only did he not pursue her crime of deceiving the emperor, but he also preserved her position as the top scholar and the position of compiler, and even made such a decision for her mother.
However, Chu Yu soon realized that Princess Fuqing might be involved in this.
After all, she was saved thanks to Princess Fuqing's intercession.
If Emperor Xuanhe were here at this moment and heard Chu Yu's thoughts, he would definitely say: You are right, it is indeed my little imperial aunt who is pleading and making decisions for you and your mother, otherwise I would not care so much about these things.
After Chu Yu received the imperial edict, the eunuch looked at the people still kneeling below and asked, "Who is Kong Xuan?"
"Ahem, Kong Xuan is here." When the imperial edict arrived, even though Kong Xuan was bedridden, she still had to come down to receive it, especially since the edict concerned her daughter's life and death.
"Kong Xuan, His Majesty has asked me to ask you: Are you willing to divorce Chu Hanwen? If so, His Majesty will decide, and you can divorce immediately."
"No, Xuan'er, how can you divorce me? Have you forgotten our friendship?"
Before Kong Xuan could answer, Chu Hanwen spoke first.
He stepped forward and tried to grab Kong Xuan's hand, but she dodged it. Chu Yu and Kong De also shielded Kong Xuan behind them.
"The friendship from back then?" Kong Xuan looked at Chu Hanwen and Liu Piaoxu beside him. "Chu Hanwen, don't you think what you're saying is ridiculous?"
If their past friendship still existed, why would Chu Hanwen have married Liu Piaoxu again?
"You could sit idly by and watch Liu Piaoxu poison me, what kind of affection do you have left?"
Kong Xuan felt that Chu Hanwen was utterly shameless.
The fact that she was deceived by Chu Hanwen when she was young can only be attributed to her youthful ignorance.
But now that she knows Chu Hanwen's true colors, if she can still be deceived by him, then it can only mean that she is incredibly stupid.
"No, Xuan'er, that was all Liu Piaoxu's decision. I had no idea about it."
"If you want to divorce me, what will happen to Yu'er? Without her father's support, how will she establish herself in the officialdom? You and your child will definitely be bullied outside."
"You'll only be bullied in this family!" Chu Yu said firmly, shielding her mother. "It's in this family that my mother and I will die!"
"Just now, didn't you kill me?"
Chu Yu's eyes were filled with icy coldness.
She no longer held any hope for Chu Hanwen, her father.
Chu Yu turned to look at her mother, took her hands in her hands, and said, "Mother, nowadays it's possible to establish a female household. After you get divorced, I will establish a female household. Don't worry, I will also become an official and achieve great things. I will definitely be able to protect myself and you, Mother."
"Yes, Yu'er, Mother believes in you."
Kong Xuan patted Chu Yu's head, her eyes filled with tenderness and affection.
She then looked at the eunuch and said earnestly and solemnly, "My lord, I am willing to divorce Chu Hanwen."
"it is good."
"Xuan'er!"
……
With the Emperor's decree and the eunuch's urging, Kong Xuan quickly divorced Chu Hanwen and even received one-third of the Chu family's assets.
Originally, it could have been divided in half, but considering there was still a willow catkin, it ultimately couldn't be divided in half.
But a third is not bad either.
Moreover, Kong Xuan didn't actually have any expectations for dividing the family property. As long as she could divorce Chu Hanwen and get Yu'er out of this cage, she would be satisfied.
Even if Chu Hanwen was unwilling, he had no choice but to do so.
After the divorce, Kong Xuan took one-third of her family's assets and temporarily moved to her parents' home.
Chu Yu also moved in.
As for ancestor worship.
She will no longer offer sacrifices to the ancestors of the Chu family; instead, she will offer sacrifices to the ancestors of the Kong family.
Chu Yu not only established a female household, but also changed her surname to Kong.
Therefore, the current Chu Yu is no longer Chu Yu, but Kong Yu, and she takes her mother's surname.
Chu Yu plans to stay in her hometown for a while until her mother's health improves.
She plans to take her mother and some of her family members to the capital to take up their jobs.

It's no secret that this year's top scorer in the national championships is a woman.
However, the people of Daqing all know that the two policies His Majesty has recently promulgated that are beneficial to women are because of Chu Yu.
Of course, Chu Yu was the one who facilitated these two policies, while Princess Fuqing was the one who promoted them.
Therefore, the women of Daqing were very grateful to Chu Yu and Princess Fuqing.
They never expected that after these two policies were announced, the first person to get a divorce would be the mother of the newly appointed top scorer, Kong Xuan.
It was still His Majesty who decided on the divorce.
After everyone learned about Kong Xuan's situation...
They all condemned Chu Hanwen as a heartless man, and understood that Chu Yu had no choice but to disguise herself as a man.
Of course, they also applauded Kong Xuan and Chu Hanwen's divorce.
Therefore, the women of Daqing generally support and approve of Chu Yu and Kong Xuan's actions.
They were the first newly appointed female champions in Daqing, and the first women to voluntarily divorce and still receive a share of the family property. These two events destined them, mother and son, to be recorded in the annals of Daqing.
Thanks to the leadership of Chu Yu and her mother, women in Daqing have also risen up.
As a result, more and more women demanded to study and participate in the imperial examinations together with their brothers.
As a result, those women whose husbands had been betrayed by unfaithful men or tormented by wicked mothers-in-law also rose up and resolutely divorced, taking their children with them!
The women of Daqing are destined to usher in a different kind of spring this year.
-
These two policies spread quickly in Daqing and soon reached Qinghai.
Qinghai was where Yue Jinyu was stationed.
When the news reached them, Yue Jinyu was leading his navy in training on the newly arrived warships.
This training was conducted in a secret location, to prevent Chen Guo from discovering it.
After all, Daqing and Chen State are separated by only a sea.
Moreover, the Chen Kingdom has recently been making moves.
Upon hearing the contents of these two policies, Yue Jinyu was stunned for a long time.
He then burst into laughter.
"As expected of our ancestors, only with our ancestors around could these two policies be promulgated and implemented."
