“Be silent, for you lack the qualifications to speak here. I have numerous responsibilities that demand my attention, and I’m not inclined to engage in a dispute with you over the cultivation bead. Otherwise, I’ll be compelled to address matters with your family,” Gu Chaoyan stated bluntly.
She had always been the one to make decisions for the Xu family.
The Xu family held a prominent position, maintaining their unique way of life within Jinwei Land over the years.
Xu Yuanlong, however, believed that his actions diverged significantly from the teachings and principles.
He strongly disagreed.
Since the Xu family was in disagreement, her course of action was to sever ties with them. If the Emperor of Jinwei Land continued to rely on the Xu family, all would proceed harmoniously. However, if the Emperor of Jinwei Land harbored reservations about the Xu family because of her, she would discreetly ensure their welfare. After all, the Xu family had shown immense kindness to
Xu Xunnan.
In reality, under normal circumstances,
If the Emperor of Jinwei Land possessed wisdom, he would avoid interfering with the Xu family.
The Xu family’s future would remain untroubled.
Xu Yuanlong did not dare to add anything further, fearing that it might prolong the matter, and thus, he remained silent.
As for the Emperor of Jinwei Land, he was in a state of profound despondency.
He saw no other alternative.
Only he could make this decision.
He was not an imprudent ruler. He was willing to be a wise ruler, unwilling to disrupt the ancestral norms.
Gu Chaoyan could discern his thoughts.
At her side, she remarked, “Your Majesty, why fret about potential criticism from the masses? If this task is accomplished, all the women of Jinwei Land will be indebted to you. It’s not as if you won’t gain anything from it.”
“Furthermore, even if women can engage in cultivation, men still hold significant influence. In reality, it doesn’t substantially threaten men’s interests.”
“If all goes as planned, this could turn out to be a favorable policy. You could potentially become one of the most exceptional emperors in history, setting yourself apart from the ordinary ones.”
“But, remember, as time passes, pressures may mount. Do you truly believe that peace will persist indefinitely?” Gu Chaoyan cautioned.
The Emperor of Jinwei Land wore a conflicted expression.
Well…
Xu Xunnan’s argument had merit.
In recent years, Jinwei Land had maintained its authority through suppression. Although it seemed peaceful on the surface, the passage of time would inevitably lead to unrest.
If he consented to this proposal…
The women of Jinwei Land would be deeply appreciative of their emperor.
However, many men might harbor resentment.
There were pros and cons.
At this moment, he couldn’t definitively determine whether this was a positive or negative development.
If he had to make a judgment now…
It appeared to be a positive step.
After all, he found himself in a desperate situation.
“Very well, I promise,” the Emperor of Jinwei Land agreed without hesitation, not even waiting for an incense stick to burn. “Tomorrow, I will personally issue a decree allowing the women of Jinwei Land to cultivate openly. Are you content with this?”
Gu Chaoyan smiled and nodded.
It went more smoothly than she had anticipated.
Initially, she had expected a lengthy process, perhaps even having to cause some turmoil within the palace. Fortunately, the Emperor of Jinwei Land was not lacking in intelligence; he was capable of rational thinking.
“Alright,” she responded.
The Emperor of Jinwei Land breathed a sigh of relief. His face no longer held that forlorn expression. Instead, he appeared more self-assured, as if he was also looking forward to something.
“Lady Xu, is there anything else you desire? Even if I grant your request, I can offer you the choice of selecting a distinguished man from Jinwei Land or the opportunity for wealth and recognition..”
