Chapter 168 The Empress Dowager's Plans

The people of Daqi didn't understand, but Jian Panpan suddenly slapped her forehead.

How could she have forgotten about this? But then she frowned, "Doesn't that mean he can go back on his word at any time?"

"So if you've thought it through, let's file for divorce directly." Actually, filing for divorce is a better option.

The two sides have already reached this point. Given Fang Yingyao's character, if they negotiate a divorce, Jian Panpan probably won't get a single penny.

Although Jian Panpan didn't work after getting married, she contributed just as much to the family as anyone else. Why shouldn't she take what's rightfully hers?

Jian Panpan nodded repeatedly, "Then let's file a lawsuit."

He Nanzhou said, "I will have a lawyer contact you regarding the lawsuit. Just follow the procedures he provides."

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

Jian Yunsang looked at Jian Panpan's face again, wondering if Fang Yingyao had controlled his strength or if Jian Panpan had dodged, because there was no handprint or even a finger mark on her face. Otherwise, they could have done a forensic examination earlier, just in case.

However, Fang Yingyao was also injured, so if the police were called, it's not certain who would suffer the loss.

After taking the items out the door, the group headed straight for the Jian family's house.

On the way, Jian Yunsang asked Jian Panpan, "What are your plans for the future?"

“I’ll find a job first. Filing for divorce probably won’t be quick, and I can’t just stay at my uncle’s house eating and drinking for free. I plan to work while going through the divorce proceedings.” After a pause, Jian Panpan added, “Actually, my former boss called me once and asked if I wanted to go back to work. I don’t know if she still wants me now. I’d like to ask her later.”

After graduating, Jian Panpan also worked for a few years.

She had always done very well at that company, and her boss was quite sorry to see her leave after getting married.

At the time, Jian Panpan thought she had found a good man, had a home of her own, and had family who loved her, so when Fang Yingyao asked her to resign, she actually did.

Looking back now, I realize how incredibly stupid I was.

In fact, there are always examples around her who show that it's better to rely on yourself than on heaven or earth.

She couldn't see through it before, and she doesn't know if it's too late now.

Jian Yunsang nodded. "It's good that you have a plan. Take it slow. Everything is just beginning. You're not even thirty yet. Life is so long. This is just a small setback for you."

The people of Daqi under the sky were somewhat stunned, especially many of the women.

If only they lived in the future, even if they were divorced or abandoned by their husbands, they could still support themselves and start over.

"Thirty years old, in later generations it seems like thirty years old is just the beginning, but in our time thirty years old, people have already lived more than half their lives."

“They’re thirty and they still haven’t started having children, while I already have grandchildren.”

"I've even started getting gray hairs."

"I really envy them."

As more and more women in the Great Qi Dynasty began to change their thinking, they saw what Jian Yunsang and Jian Panpan had gone through and realized once again that women could have another way of life.

Even the Empress Dowager in the inner palace was slightly taken aback by what she saw.

At this moment, she had no other concubines by her side, only her closest nanny who had accompanied her since childhood.

Looking at the sky, she murmured, "Thirty years old. I'm only forty this year." She entered the palace at fourteen and gave birth to the current emperor at fifteen.

He's forty this year, but he seems to be past his prime, not as energetic as the parents of Miss Jian and others.

Zheng Mama smiled and said, "Your Highness is still young. As Miss Jian said, there's still time for everything. Whatever you want to do, this old servant will support Your Highness."

The Empress Dowager's eyes lit up slightly. "You understand me best." After a pause, she said in a low voice, "I want to open a girls' academy so that women can also read and write."

Zheng Mama asked with some doubt, "Does Your Highness mean that women should also participate in the imperial examinations and later become officials in the court?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head. "Those are things from a long time ago. It's too early to think about them now. I just hope they can learn some skills so they'll have more options in the future. I may not have the ability to get them into the court through the imperial examinations, but once they start, who knows what will happen? It's already hard enough for women in this world. I'm a woman too. After seeing the sky, I don't know why, but there's a fire burning in my heart that I can't seem to extinguish. I'm thinking, since I have some power, if I just stay in the palace all day doing nothing, wouldn't that be a waste of time?"

She's only forty, after all.

Granny Zheng smiled and said, "Her Majesty is kind and benevolent."

The Empress Dowager had already stood up. "There's no time to lose. While I still have some ideas, let's write something, a plan."

"Your Majesty..."

"It's just setting up a girls' school, it's not that big. We can just tell the emperor. Does he dare to disagree? It's not like he's asking him to hold imperial examinations for women."

The Empress Dowager gave a soft snort, never expecting that Emperor Jingxuan would refuse.

She still believed in her son on this point, as for the court officials... they were not important.

Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager hurriedly went to the table and asked Zheng Mama to lay out paper and grind ink. She immediately wrote down her thoughts, "Didn't you say that Lin Lan and the others would arrive in a few days? Let her be the first student."

Granny Zheng opened her mouth, wanting to say that Miss Lin Lan was a bit too old, and even if she wanted to study, she probably wouldn't be able to study for more than two years.

But seeing the Empress Dowager's enthusiastic expression, she couldn't bear to spoil her fun.

After the Empress Dowager finished writing half a page, she planned to look at the sky and rest for a while, but Jian Yunsang and the others had already arrived at the Jian family home.

Qin Xiaoying had already tidied up the house, and Jian Panpan could move in immediately.

He Nanzhou acted quickly; a lawyer had already contacted Jian Panpan, who was on the phone explaining the situation to the lawyer.

Several hours had passed by the time everything was done.

Fang Yingyao called twice during that time. The first time, Jian Panpan answered and hung up after saying a few words. The second time, she didn't answer at all.

Later, Fang Yingyao sent her a text message with harsh words, basically telling her not to regret it.

Jian Zhengqing also received a call from Jian Zhengchao. Knowing that Jian's intention to divorce would not change and that Jian Panpan had already moved into the Jian family home, he ultimately did not try to persuade him any further.

He did transfer 500 yuan afterward, but didn't say anything about taking Jian Panpan back.

Jian Yunsang was speechless. Five hundred yuan, that's more than enough for a wedding banquet. She was not as generous as Grandma Jian.

But none of that matters anymore; I never had any hope for him anyway.

After Jian Panpan was settled, Jian Yunsang and the other two returned to the hotel.

No sooner had I taken a shower than I received a call from Jian Yunlu.

"Sis, why didn't you tell me you were coming to Wucheng?"
