Chapter 297 Selection
In the court, the atmosphere was turbulent, and the voices of discussion were like surging waves. Today's topic was about the selection of female military officers, and the ministers held their own opinions and argued with each other. Among them, someone said that women were weak, how could they wield swords and guns? Isn't this treason? When this was said, everyone looked at him sideways and talked about it.
However, just as the ministers were arguing, Empress Xu Jiaoran walked gracefully into the inner palace. Her gait was like a crane in the clouds, and her posture was extraordinary. Empress Xu spoke softly, her voice flowing like a spring, with a certain unquestionable majesty: "Why can't women wield swords and guns?"
The prime minister looked embarrassed and bowed slightly, saying, "Empress, the harem should not interfere in government affairs. It is inappropriate for you to come to the court in person this time." However, Xu Jiaoran smiled indifferently. She did not back down because of the prime minister's words.
"I am not here to interfere in government affairs," she said softly, "but to prove to you that women can also pick up bows and arrows, swords and guns, and defend their country." Her words revealed a firm belief and endless courage.
At this time, Xu Jiaoran motioned Yao Miaoer to come forward. Yao Miaoer was agile and light-footed, like a blooming lotus. She walked to the front of the hall, holding a long sword, and began to perform sword skills for the court officials. The sword flashed, dancing in her hand like a dragon. Although her sword skills were not top-notch, her tenacity and perseverance were admirable.
During Yao Miaoer's sword dance, the court officials who had been against female military officers seemed to be deeply shocked. They watched Yao Miaoer's slender figure shuttle through the sword light, as if they saw the strength and tenacity of women. They may not have the strength and skills of men, but they have their own uniqueness.
Although Yao Miaoer's sword dance is not as mighty and domineering as those of veteran warriors, it has a different charm. Her sword dance reveals a rhythm of softness and strength, as if telling the indomitable spirit of a woman in the face of difficulties and challenges.
Xu Jiaoran stood quietly by the side, her eyes revealing her admiration and encouragement for Yao Miaoer. She was not only fighting for the rights and status that women deserve, but also proving to everyone that women are not weak and they can also shoulder responsibilities and missions.
The court officials seemed to be lost in thought at this moment. They began to re-examine the woman and her sword dance. They saw the woman's courage and determination in the face of challenges, and also saw their tenacity and perseverance in the face of difficulties.
Finally, Xu Jiaoran spoke calmly: "My dear ministers, women are not as weak as you think." Her voice revealed a kind of confidence and determination, "They can also pick up bows and arrows, swords and guns to protect their homes and loved ones." Her words shook everyone's hearts like spring thunder.
As Xu Jiaoran finished speaking, the court officials seemed to understand something. They began to re-examine the power and value of women. From then on, the controversy about female military officers in the court gradually subsided. Because everyone understood a truth: women can also become warriors to defend their country.
But since this matter violated etiquette, the court officials were still a little stubborn.
"In ancient times, women had the ability to reproduce, and they were often the heads of families, and men listened to them. But now women listen to men. Why can't we change this?"
After these words were spoken, the hall fell into a brief silence. The court officials looked at each other, they knew that what Empress Xu said was true, but they still had doubts in their hearts.
"Your Majesty," a loyal old minister said, "In ancient times, people did not understand etiquette and laws, but the situation today is different."
"What's the difference?" Empress Xu raised her eyes.
The old minister hesitated to speak, and finally said: "The will of heaven may not always be in line with the will of the people."
Li Zhen listened to the debate silently behind the curtain. He knew that his wife was not only the master of the harem, but also a woman who understood justice and made decisive decisions. Every choice she made was carefully considered. Although he was the emperor at this moment, he was more like a listener, waiting for her analysis and decision on the situation.
"My desire to select female military officers is not a momentary impulse." Xu Jiaoran spoke slowly, "There are many women in the court who care about their country and their ambitions. Now that I am in a high position, I am not only concerned about my own safety, but also hope to establish a situation where women can have a place in the court."
The court fell into a deep silence. The ministers were in a conflict, knowing that the queen's words were profound and weighty. She was not only seeking her own safety, but also for the status and future of women in the entire royal family and the entire country.
"Your Majesty," a minister finally spoke up, "if the selection of female military officers can really ensure peace in the palace and stability in the country, we are willing to offer our opinions for your decision."
Li Zhen slowly stood up from behind the curtain with the demeanor of a king: "This matter concerns the safety of both the country and the royal family. Since you have expressed your support, I hope you will go all out to select a true heroine."
His voice was not loud but it was full of the majesty and expectation of the royal family. Seeing this, the ministers had to agree and were determined to do their best to complete the task. Xu Jiaoran breathed a sigh of relief. It was the power brought to her by her expectations for the future and her sense of responsibility to the royal family. She knew that this road was not easy, but she was willing to go on for herself, the royal family, and the country.
The flickering candlelight in the hall seemed to be cheering for the upcoming changes. And in this quiet night, the selection of female military officers officially kicked off...
The selection of the female military attaché was finally finalized, and this news aroused Yao Miaoer's infinite enthusiasm like a spring breeze. For this ambitious female military attaché, this is a great opportunity and the key to opening her career.
Her eyes were bright and determined, like a blazing star illuminating the entire starry sky.
In pursuit of that glorious goal, Yao Miaoer threw herself into the arduous training. The night was as dark as ink, and the stars were like bright fragments inlaid in the sky, but none of this could interfere with her training. Whenever the moon rose and the night sank, she stood alone in the yard, holding a sword and standing alone in the wind, like a proud poplar tree, looking even more heroic in the night.
Her training was full of challenges and hardships. Her figure shuttled through the swords and shadows, following her like a shadow, and every move was full of her determination and perseverance. Every time she swung her sword, it seemed to tell of her love and pursuit of martial arts. Her tenacious will and incomparable perseverance were like a sharpened blade, becoming sharper and sharper.
Day after day of training, her figure became more agile and her eyes sharper. Her sweaty figure was like a poem engraved on an ancient stone tablet, recording her efforts and persistence. She was like a butterfly in metamorphosis, and every struggle and pain was for a more beautiful flight.
When she was exhausted, she would look up at the starry sky, and those twinkling stars seemed to be telling her their own stories. Those stories were full of tenacity and perseverance, making her feel that she was not alone. She knew that only through continuous efforts and persistence could she light up her own path like those stars.
When she faces difficulties, she will think of the days and nights of training and tempering. Those hardships and pains are like the ladder of growth, allowing her to keep climbing up. Every setback makes her more determined in her faith and determination.
Finally, when the day of selection finally came, Yao Miaoer was fully prepared. Her figure was agile and powerful, and her eyes were full of confidence and determination.
