The result of this battle quickly spread throughout the entire Yangtze River. The Yuan clan was defeated and their power fell apart. The Shen family's power rose to a higher level and greatly increased their influence. They seized several cities of the Yuan clan. Many small families that had once relied on the Yuan clan also joined the Shen family, but they also paid a considerable price to ensure their safety.
In this chaotic world, one could either fight with all their might or form a good team. If they failed, the entire clan would be destroyed in an instant.
The old forces disappeared, and new families rose. This was an era of change.
In the Le family's camp in the Northern Lands.
Le Yao looked at the new information regarding Shen Yuan's battle and could not help but clap her hands in praise." Shen Lingluo is indeed a hero of the era.”
Zhao Bingqi, who was dressed in military attire and had an imposing appearance, frowned slightly. Then, he recovered his gentle expression and smiled." It seems that Yao Le admires the Shen family's head, Shen Lingluo.”
Le Yao nodded," Shen Lingluo was an extraordinary woman at that time. She was truly a hero. If not for her…"
She seemed to have realized something and stopped talking.
Zhao Bingqi seemed to have noticed her unsatisfied words and changed the topic." The aristocratic families won't let this go.”
"I agree with General." Le Yao nodded.
Bai Zu didn't die, he didn't die, let alone a behemoth like the aristocratic families. Although the Yuan family was defeated, the aristocratic family did not suffer much losses. Moreover, the enmity between the aristocratic family and the Shen family could be considered to be deeply rooted.
Zhao Bingqi felt a little regretful. It would be great if the Shen family could deal a heavy blow to the aristocratic families in this battle. In fact, all the forces that were interested in the world were quite afraid of the aristocratic families. Although they did not become the Emperor, they all set themselves at the highest point of the secular world. No matter who became the Emperor, they would be invincible.
How can others sleep beside the couch? Zhao Bingqi's seemingly gentle eyes flashed with ruthlessness.
This time, the Shen family not only accepted many forces to rely on, but also a large area of land, population and wealth that originally belonged to the Yuan family. War was originally a method to plunder people, land and wealth.
To suddenly have such a large piece of fat meat, even if the Shen family was prepared, it was still somewhat unbearable and they were so busy that their feet could not even touch the ground after a few days.
"Looks like I have to develop peacefully for a period of time.”He closed a booklet and supported his chin with his brush as he spoke slowly.
Other than that, they were still lacking a few talents who were good at managing government affairs. It seemed that the recruitment list was still too little.
Lingluo wouldn't do it all by herself. Wouldn't that tire her out? She wouldn't be able to become the emperor before she collapsed. This was too much of a loss. Thinking of this, Lingluo couldn't help but kick Ji Ze, who was dozing off on the soft couch.
"Hey, don't you know how to read people's faces?"
Ji Ze was dreaming that he had become the Emperor's teacher that everyone respected. However, he was kicked awake. When he opened his eyes, he saw the prerequisite for him to become the Emperor's teacher---the current evil-looking student, Shen Lingluo.
He thought to himself, I'm indeed dreaming.
Ji Ze lifted his sleeve and wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of his mouth. This was originally a vulgar and rude action, but he did it in a different way. "I'm your teacher, after all. How can you call me 'hey'?”
Lingluo laughed coldly." If it's useful, then it's Teacher. If it's useless, then it can only be this.”
He was so good at burning bridges after crossing the river and killing donkeys when they were done with their work. As expected of the good disciple that Ji Ze had found. His master would rest in peace if the heavens were watching.
Lingluo urged," Hurry up and find me a few people who can handle these matters.”
Ji Ze tidied his clothes slowly." Is it that easy to find talent? A wise and wise monarch will naturally have all his talents in his pocket. Don't be anxious. As the old saying goes, when the heavens are about to give a great responsibility to a person, they must first…"
Lingluo sneered again and laid on the soft couch. She said calmly," I'm not in a hurry. You can do these things. I think you can handle them anyway. If you can't finish them, I'll inform the servants to send Mr. Ji's food later."”
Ji Ze immediately said," I've been observing the stars at night. I've already found someone who meets your requirements.”
Lingluo gave him a sidelong glance." Aren't you only good at physiognomy? When did you learn how to read astrology?”
"Because you and I have met that person before.”Ji Ze said confidently," Leyao is a true assistant of a king.”
Lingluo thought for a moment." The person you suggested is good, but he's a little far away.”
It was not just a little far away. He was clearly the strategist in the Le family's camp in the north. However, the two of them had never thought of this.
"No matter how far away it is, I believe that my lord has a way.”Ji Ze said with a smile. As long as he wielded the hoe well, he was not afraid that he would not be able to dig up the wall.
Lingluo agreed. She nodded and said," You're right.”
Before the master and disciple could think of a way to lure Le Yao away from her camp, the aristocratic families had played tricks again, and this time it was a big one.
The last time they heard news about the aristocratic families, it was the Xi family who claimed that Xi Feng's new wife was killed by soldiers during the war. The Xi family was devastated.
This time, when the secret letter about the aristocratic family was presented, Ji Ze couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. The aristocratic family had written a book," Women's Commandments." The book was divided into the weak, husband and wife, respect and obedience, women's behavior, concentration, Qu Cong, and uncle and sister. It advocated the way of women's submissiveness and promoted the deeds of the previous dynasty's "chaste women and virtuous women" and "good wives and good mothers".
This book was written by Liu Weizhi, the daughter of an aristocratic family. She was a world-famous and talented female literary artist. She was talented at a young age and was good at poetry. When she reached adulthood, she married Xi You, who had a family friend. The two of them were harmonious. Unfortunately, Xi You died early. Since then, Liu Weizhi lived in seclusion and occasionally taught a few female students from aristocratic families.
Her talent was widely spread among the aristocratic families. Now that her masterpiece was born, it would definitely attract people to copy and recite it everywhere.
The aristocratic families 'move was really ruthless. It was clearly aimed at Shen Lingluo, who now had a large influence.
Because she was also a woman.
Ji Ze put down the memorial and looked up at Lingluo. Her expression was unusually calm, as if there was no fluctuation. Ji Ze had been with her student for so many years, so he knew her character.
The angrier Shen Lingluo was, the calmer she would appear. When she acted as if nothing had happened, it meant that she had the intention to kill.
This student of his had never been gentle and kind. He had always been decisive in killing.
"You have an idea?" Even so, Ji Ze couldn't help but ask. This game was difficult to solve. The aristocratic families wanted to kill Shen Lingluo this time. It was either you die or I die.
"Let's wait and see." Lingluo closed her eyes and said lightly.
Lingluo had already received the news, so the dukes of the other forces could not have been later than her. However, when they saw the aristocratic families spending so much money to create this book, they could not help but suck in a breath.
How much hatred and hatred was this? Even if he had to drag his own daughter along, he would definitely kill Shen Lingluo.
It looked like a mere book, but in reality, it was using the reputation and foundation of the aristocratic families for hundreds of years to go against Shen Lingluo. If Shen Lingluo's reputation could not be compared to this book that the aristocratic families used to guarantee their reputation, then this book would definitely be regarded as the standard for women. Shen Lingluo, who was the most deviant of them all, would also become the target of public criticism. It would be difficult for her to break through the boundaries of secular morality, and the power she had accumulated now could only be handed over to others.
Those who had a slightly far-sighted view could see that once this book became popular, it would definitely have a profound impact on future generations.
However, these people were either afraid of the aristocratic families and unwilling to compete with them, or they were unwilling to say it out of selfishness. Compared to the future, they were more concerned about the current situation. If the aristocratic families were to succeed, Shen Lingluo would either die or be crippled. They would also have one less powerful competitor to fight for the world.
Why not?
Hence, many factions chose to watch from the sidelines. This was a game between the aristocratic families and Shen Lingluo. If the aristocratic families lost, they would have one less faction to fear. If Shen Lingluo lost, they would have one less opponent on their path to fight for the world. The best outcome was that both sides would suffer.
Although Le Yao was in the north, she didn't get the news too late. In just two days, the book written by Liu Weizhi was in her hands.
The more she read, the paler her face became. After she finished reading, her eyes turned dark and her body almost fell back. Fortunately, she held onto the table.
The soldier who delivered the book saw that it was not good and asked worriedly,"Advisor Yao, are you alright?"
Le Yao held onto the table and shook her head." It's nothing. You can leave first."”
"Yes." The soldier retreated to the outside of the tent, leaving Le Yao alone. She looked at the thin book of commandments for women again, her heart filled with anger. She wished she could throw it into the brazier and burn it completely.
With Le Yao's sharp intelligence, how could she not see the mystery behind it and the legacy of the poison to the women in the future?
Liu Weizhi was so ruthless. For the benefit of the aristocratic families, she was actually willing to sacrifice the dignity and freedom of all the women in the world.
It was not easy for women to be born in this world. It was difficult for them to study and become officials like men. Until now, did they not even give them this tiny chance to survive?
Could Shen Lingluo break out of this dead end? Could she, Leyao, break it?
Le Yao didn't know, but she knew that she couldn't just sit still and wait for death. This book not only destroyed her ambition, but also the ambitions of thousands of women here.
She calmly got up, tidied up her messy clothes and makeup, and simply packed her things. She took down the sword hanging on the wall and strode out of the tent. She found an excuse to tell the guards that she wanted to go out. The guards did not suspect anything and let her go.
Ke Layao had just reached the entrance of the military camp when a group of people came riding from afar. They dismounted their horses with serious expressions.
"Sister, we finally found you.”
