I rely on gossip to save the country

Chapter 161 The Chaotic Beiqi Kingdom

On the bustling streets, the shouts and hawking of vendors are endless; in the noisy market, the sounds of cars and horses neighing merge into one.

Xie Chuyue was walking on the street when, without her noticing, a small white ball-like thing appeared on her shoulder.

After Xie Chuyue left, the system said it wanted to go back to the room and followed Xie Chuyue out.

System: [Host, where are you going now? Are you going to find evidence against some officials again? ]

Xie Chuyue replied as she walked: [Well, that's about what I mean. On the surface, our Nanyue Kingdom seems to have a harmonious relationship between the ruler and his subjects, but there are still some troublemakers in secret, so we need to deal with them all.]

The system is clear.

Soon, the two of them quietly hid in an official's house.

Here, Xie Chuyue and the system took action.

In Beiqi country...

At this time, there were noises of quarreling, smashing of things, cursing, etc. in the homes of officials of Beiqi State. In short, there was unrest in every home.

In the Beiqi State Taifu Mansion, the Taifu looked at his wife who was clamoring to divorce him, with an angry look on his face, "If you really want to divorce me, don't regret it after the divorce."

Madam Taifu also looked proud, "Regret, how could I regret it? Miss Song is right, we can have our own thoughts, we can have our own things to do, and we don't have to rely on you men to live in the future. I'm so happy, how could I regret it?"

The Grand Tutor was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He never thought that his wife would be provoked to divorce him by a few words from Miss Song. After all, their marriage relationship of more than 20 years was so fragile.

"She is just a yellow-haired girl, what does she know? Stop making trouble. I will pretend that what happened today never happened. If you leave me and go back to your parents' home, how will your parents look at you? Aren't you afraid that your brother and sister-in-law will look down on you? We have been quarreling for so many years, and our son is married. Why are you still making trouble at this time? Enough, go back."

The wife of the Grand Tutor was obviously extremely angry at the moment. After hearing what the Grand Tutor said, she rushed over and grabbed the Grand Tutor's sleeve and scratched his face. "Either give me a divorce letter today, or I will die in your house. Let's see how you will explain to my parents."

The master pushed the crazy woman away, and seeing that she was about to rush over, he kicked her. The master touched his scratched face and said incredulously, "You are crazy, you are absolutely crazy, crazy woman. If you insist on getting a divorce, then I will give you a divorce letter. Take it and get out. If you regret it, don't blame me for not thinking of friendship."

The Grand Tutor was also furious, so he took the paper and pen from the desk and started writing.

This woman is simply a crazy woman now. It has been going on for nearly half a month. He is really annoyed.

When Mrs. Taifu heard that she was going to write a divorce letter, she finally calmed down. Miss Song was indeed the girl of destiny. Miss Song said that she would save them from the water.

Every time she attended a banquet hosted by the ladies, Miss Song would give them a lecture. Miss Song said that women should be independent and self-reliant and not depend on men. She wanted to let these men see that they are not useless and that they can support themselves.

So they have to be independent women and not compete with a group of women for the favor of a man.

Just as Miss Song said, men and women should be equal, there should be monogamy, and women should not be trapped in the deep palace.

So now she wants to divorce and live independently, to let these men know that men and women are equal, everyone is equal!

After the Grand Tutor finished writing the letter, he threw the divorce letter into the Grand Tutor's wife's arms, said "Don't regret it", and left.

Mrs. Taifu was very excited when she took the divorce letter and went back to her room to pack her things.

This situation occurred in other mansions, regardless of whether they were young couples or old couples.

Over here in the Forget-Your-Worries Pavilion in the capital of Beiqi State, the Minister of Rites of Beiqi State Gu Qiancheng and the Lord of the Imperial Observatory Nanzhi were sitting in a private room. Several Beiqi officials were sitting around them, and several of them sighed.

"Ugh!"

"Ugh!"

"Ugh!"

Gu Qiancheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said calmly, "My lords, please stop sighing."

One of the officials sighed again and said, "Alas, Lord Gu is still the best. He is young, unmarried and childless. He doesn't have to be as miserable as us. His wife divorced him and his daughter became a nun and did business."

"Alas! Lord Gu, we are suffering in our hearts. You have no wife or daughter, so you cannot feel our suffering." Another old minister also said with a sad face.

Several old ministers all looked at Lord Nanzhi of the Imperial Observatory. This lord knew a lot about astronomy and geography. They really wanted to know whether this girl of destiny was real or fake. If she was fake, they would make this woman pay the price.

"Lord Nanzhi, is Song Jiaojiao, the concubine of Prime Minister Song, really the daughter of destiny of our Beiqi country?"

The young man called Nanzhi also frowned, seeming to feel guilty towards everyone, but his tone was very firm: "Yes, I have been fortune-telling every night, and the fortune-telling has always shown that Miss Song is the girl of destiny, and she cannot be said to be the girl of destiny of our Beiqi country."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, leaving everyone in suspense, and continued, "There is something I have not said, which has caused disputes among the princes and the various countries, but I have to say it today. Since you are all in such a difficult situation, I am also very distressed. In fact, the hexagram shows that whoever gets the girl of destiny will get the world."

All the officials were shocked when they heard this. Whoever gets the girl of destiny will get the world. Doesn't that mean whoever marries this girl of destiny will become the overlord of the world?

"But, sir, what should we do? Although she is the daughter of destiny, the things she said have caused our family to be broken up. We really can't stay in this mansion any longer." Several old adults had awe and doubt towards this daughter of destiny, but they also had disgust for her. But who said she was the daughter of destiny?

Minister of Rites Gu Qiancheng looked at everyone and spoke slowly: "You should go back quickly, everyone. If the ladies do something extreme when you are not here, it will be more trouble than gain. At least you can suppress it if you go back."

When the adults heard this, they thought it made sense, so they sighed, shook their heads and left.

In the end, only Gu Qiancheng and Nan Zhi were left in the private room. They looked at each other and smiled.

Nan Zhimeng took a sip of tea, collapsed in the private room, looked at the gentle young man opposite him and said, "Hey, Xiao Gu, we have come this far, why hasn't the master come yet? It's been a year, and the daylilies have turned yellow in the waiting for the master."

Gu Qiancheng finished the last bit of tea in the teacup, put it down, and said in a calm tone: "It is not our turn to worry about the master's affairs. Just do your own job well, and the master will come naturally when he comes."

After saying this, Gu Qiancheng left.

In the Beiqi Palace, in a pavilion in the Imperial Garden, the emperor's concubines gathered together, all with worried faces, "Sisters, what do you say we should do? We are the emperor's concubines, we are not like those wives of officials who can divorce whenever they want."
