Chapter 961 Open the Window (Part [-])
Most people only regard the Zheng family's matter as a topic of conversation, and it's okay to hear about it.However, those keen people also noticed the attitude of the two princesses towards Shen Jingzhu.

Shen Jingzhu, the princess is determined, they obviously won't give others a chance to hurt her.

In Yaozhou, the love of mother and daughter Su Yueling and Su Youning was like a weathervane, so the voices of slandering Shen Jingzhu quickly disappeared.If it wasn't for Shen Jingzhu who didn't go out very often, and wouldn't take the initiative to make friends with outsiders, they all wanted to get to know Shen Jingzhu.

At the beginning of March, Shen Jingzhu wrote a document to Su Youning, and Su Youning handed it to Su Yueling.

Su Yueling flipped through it and found that Shen Jingzhu wrote about female inheritance.According to the laws of Daxia, married women have no inheritance rights (parents can give their children as gifts in the name of subsidy), unless both parents and brothers are dead.And in this case, you can only get half of it.The housewife can inherit the family property, but the property inherited is half of the son.As for the title, it has always been a man's business, not a woman's.

In Shen Jingzhu's document, it was proposed that families with titles could apply for their daughters to inherit the title, but they had to spend one-third of the property in the mansion.A woman who inherits the title is the same as a bastard, and has to be demoted to attack.

In addition, there are still childless families who can also apply for the girl in the family to inherit the family property, and one-third of it is also turned over to the national treasury.

Su Yueling knew in her heart that this post was very likely to be passed after it was submitted.After all, there are also some powerful families in Daxia who do not have males who can inherit property and titles.Under normal circumstances, the family will select a suitable child from his brother for adoption.I also want to know that, except for a small number of brain twitches, most of them would rather let their own blood inherit, and don't want to take advantage of relatives, or even children in the clan.

Even if they are opposed, who can guarantee that they will have suitable heirs for life after life?

So they won't object.

It is impossible to reach the step of equality between men and women in one go, and if the steps are too big, it will be easy to mess up.But step by step is still possible.The reason why Shen Jingzhu didn't let the women inherit the same part as the men was to reduce the voice of opposition.

Su Yueling called her over and said, "Your idea is indeed good, but you can be a little bolder."

She said: "I heard a story. If you want to open the windows in a room of people, there may be objections. But if you just lift the roof off, others will agree with you to open the windows."

Shen Jingzhu thought deeply, "I see."

The next day, she handed in another paperwork.This time it will be much more radical.The women's inheritance is the same as that of the sons in the family.

Su Yueling wrote these two documents on the booklet, and sent them back to the capital quickly.

To her relief, after Shen Jingzhu finished writing these two documents, she went to sort out some cases in Yaozhou over the years, and it seemed that she wanted to work hard in this area.Su Yueling also let her come, and sent two subordinates to be her assistants.

As Su Yueling expected, when the first proposal was promulgated in the morning, it caused an uproar, and there were countless voices of opposition.

In the eyes of many people, how can women's status be raised so high? If women can inherit as many properties as men, it will not be cheap for outsiders.They are not happy to say anything.

The rich and powerful without sons are naturally willing, and it is better to leave it to a daughter than to an outsider.The two sides rolled up their sleeves and quarreled into a ball, spraying each other's face with saliva every day.That's why Yuan Suijun avoided being spit on - mainly because they didn't dare.

The name Shen Jingzhu also gained a lot of popularity.

Everyone still has an impression of the Shen family's affairs before, so some people inevitably suspect that Shen Jingzhu is the murdered eldest daughter of the Shen family?She wanted to amend the property distribution laws of Da Xia, perhaps to pave the way for herself.It is abhorrent to have to shake the court law for a little profit of one's own.Sure enough, women are not as good as men when they are officials. They have too many selfish intentions and tend to forget the public because of personal interests, so they can't just set this precedent at will. The emperor is confused.

Before the official spoke eloquently about the many inadequacies of a woman being an official, Yuan Suijun said flatly: "Shen Dianbo said that she would not take any of her mother's dowry, and would give it all to the treasury."

Although Su Yueling fiddled with dream weaving skills to create a dream, all the dowry left by Shen Jingzhu's biological mother, Mrs. Guo, was sent to the treasury.But if Shen Jingzhu insisted, he could still get it back. After all, it was just a dream, and there was nothing to back it up.The imperial court is not short of money now, so it really won't compete with a weak woman.

But Shen Jingzhu said that he didn't need it.Her words also admitted that she was the eldest daughter of the Shen family.

Mr. Dong seemed to be strangled by the neck, unable to speak a word.

Yuan Suijun continued: "The meager people you speak of have such a heart. If you want to be as generous and open-minded as Mr. Dong, you must be better than her?"

Master Dong blushed, how could he follow Shen Jingzhu's example and donate all his biological mother's inheritance.In the end, he could only retreat in despair.

Although Master Dong was successfully knocked out, those who opposed him would not compromise because of this.

After arguing for half a month, the emperor took out Shen Jingzhu's second document.

Compared with the previous one, looking at this one is not so uncomfortable.

In the end, the Women's Inheritance Law was passed smoothly.

This law can indeed protect some vulnerable folk women.The folk clan is powerful. If a family has no inherited son, the family property is likely to be robbed by the clan after the father dies.With this new law, at least women have an extra layer of protection.

The name of Shen Jingzhu also spread.

……

In the largest brothel in Luozhou.

Shen Jingying, whose flower name is Rumei, is dressed in gorgeous attire and is pouring wine for a richly dressed guest.

It's been a while since she was sold to this brothel. At first, Shen Jingying didn't want to pick up customers and tried to escape, but then she was beaten to pieces by the bustard, and salt water was even poured on her wound. The pain caused her to be unable to sleep for many days .

Not only that, but the bustard also let her see the fate of other people.A girl also tried to escape, but when she was caught, the bustard gave her to beggars to spoil her.

Shen Jingying knew that she was saved from this catastrophe because she was good-looking and good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

After witnessing the end of the woman with her own eyes, she was afraid, so she compromised.She would rather serve rich people than be ruined by lowly people.

She also wanted to die, but when her teeth were biting her tongue, she didn't have the courage to commit suicide, so she could only endure the humiliation and live on.

After she compromised, the bustard quickly held a first-night auction for her. In this way, Shen Jingying became the oiran of this building because of her excellent sex skills, and she was well-known in Luozhou.

The man beside her is a well-known wealthy businessman in Luozhou, his hands kept slipping on her body.Enduring her nausea and nausea, she made a dignified toast to him.

After the rich businessman drank two glasses of wine, he played with Shen Jingying again, and then he seemed to think of something, and said: "It's a pity that Rumei is serving us in the brothel."

"If you can redeem yourself one day, you can go to the female officer selection."

He was just joking when he said this, he had already entered the brothel, and he hadn't been squeezed out of value, so there was no way he could redeem himself.

Shen Jingying naturally also heard about the selection of female officials, she said lightly: "How can a lowly person like me have the qualifications."

The rich businessman smiled, and he smelled of alcohol when he spoke, "It's impossible! Princess Qionghua has a subordinate who is said to have been rescued from a den of thieves. The law of succession was created by her."

"Wait, what's her name? It seems to be called Shen Jingzhu, right? I also heard that she was the eldest daughter of the Shen family who was murdered. If it was her, then her experience is really quite ups and downs."

Quiet Bamboo?
The wine in front of Shen Jingying was accidentally knocked over by her.
