Poverty Alleviation in Qin: A Sky-High Review of "I Am the Female Prime Minister of All Time&qu
Chapter 106 A brawl breaks out in court
Upon realizing what was happening, many noble families couldn't contain themselves and hurriedly jumped out, pointing at Song Ji in the front row and sternly rebuking him:
"Song Ye! How dare you! You actually concealed your identity and deceived the emperor!"
"You deceived the late emperor and his ministers, betraying the trust placed in you by both the late emperor and Your Majesty!"
Song stood still, not even lifting his eyelids.
Having reached her current status, she naturally no longer needs to waste words arguing.
Before the nobles could continue their tirade, several of Song Ye's capable generals erupted in a frenzy, rushing out from their respective ranks, each quick-witted and merciless in their rebuttals.
Cao Shen stepped forward and sneered, "Deceiving the emperor? Who risked their life to stabilize the situation, preserve the late emperor's lineage, and safeguard the Qin dynasty during the Sand Dune Rebellion? It was my Prime Minister!"
"When you old fogies were hiding in Xianyang, pretending to be deaf and dumb, why didn't you mention the word 'deception'? Now that things are stable, you jump out to find fault. Your skin is thicker than the walls of Xianyang!"
Zhou Bo, standing nearby, raised his voice even louder: "You old fogies! Stop bringing up your status! Whether he's male or female, his abilities speak for themselves! You're all men, so why did you all cower and dare not utter a sound back then? Now you have the nerve to criticize your elders?"
Lu Ze crossed his arms and said in an extremely aggressive tone, "Admit it, you are not only less talented than the Prime Minister, but you are also less visionary."
Lu Shizhi, standing to the side, slowly added a scathing remark, each word piercing the heart: "Gentlemen, you've finally found a weakness in the Prime Minister that isn't really a weakness to use against him. Are you afraid that a woman will take away your privileges?"
The group of people, one after another, retorted, leaving the noble families red-faced with embarrassment.
Their sharp tongues were even more biting than their boss, Song.
Seeing that they couldn't win the argument, someone reached out and shoved them hard first!
The scene instantly descended into chaos.
These pampered nobles, who usually only schemed against each other and put on airs, were no match for Cao Can and his group of military generals.
One of the old noblemen, his face flushed, rushed forward and shoved Lü Ze, roaring, "You bunch of sycophants! To protect Song Ye, you disregard the law! You are Song Ye's dogs!"
Wow, those words ignited the entire audience.
Lu Ze immediately flew into a rage, grabbing the other man's collar and shoving him hard: "You old bastard, talking nonsense! I'll beat you to a pulp today!"
"Insolence! How dare you resort to violence in the imperial court!"
"So what if I use force! I'll beat you up to deal with a bunch of troublemaking old codgers!"
Zhou Bo rolled up his sleeves and strode forward, forcing back two nobles who surrounded him with a single punch. His voice boomed, "You call us dogs? At least we've been loyal! What have you done besides picking fights and dragging down the Qin Dynasty, taking your aristocratic salaries? You're nothing but parasites! Take this!"
Cao Can followed closely behind, precisely blocking the group of aristocratic scions who wanted to surround him, and said while blocking them, "So you're relying on your family background and seniority to act tough, huh? You can't win an argument, so you resort to violence and cheating?"
The nobles were furious, desperately trying to defend themselves while hurling insults:
"You bunch of brutes! You have absolutely no understanding of the proper etiquette between ruler and subject!"
"You're willing to be mere lackeys for a woman! Shameless!"
The people of Pei County refused to tolerate it, and fought back while simultaneously beating the other side, creating a fierce and heated battle.
"What's shameful about working for my master? It's better than you all being useless slackers!"
"Still dare to talk back? Today I'm going to teach you old fogies a lesson!"
"So you resort to violence when you can't win an argument? No problem, we know a little bit about martial arts too."
The solemn and dignified morning court session turned into complete chaos. Instead of discussing any important matters, the civil and military officials were all watching a one-sided brawl and a chaotic scene of chickens and dogs running amok.
Song Ye, standing at the very front, remained indifferent, as if the scene behind him was not a chaotic battle in the imperial court, but merely children playing.
Standing beside him, Xiao He's eyes twitched violently, his face numb and blank.
I'm impressed, truly impressed.
You had to be so sarcastic, and now look what happened.
The outcome of the battle was a foregone conclusion; this group of pampered nobles were unilaterally and brutally beaten by Zhou Bo, Lü Ze, and his companions.
One by one, the officials' hats were askew, their robes were torn, and their hair was disheveled. Some fell to the ground, clutching their backs and gasping for breath, while others were forced to retreat repeatedly, leaving them with no dignity whatsoever.
They simply couldn't take the beating anymore.
Finally, a nobleman, disregarding all pride, scrambled towards the throne, wailing and begging for mercy: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Help!!"
"They! They! They're absolutely lawless!"
On the imperial steps, Fusu watched the commotion for quite a while with his hands in his pockets.
"Your Majesty, save me!"
Fusu: "..."
"That's enough, stop it."
But Cao Can, Zhou Bo, Lü Ze, and the others who were fighting fiercely below seemed to have their ears automatically filtered out, selectively pretending not to hear.
They continued to beat those who deserved it, and even became more aggressive in their attacks.
No one paid any attention to the emperor's attempts to stop him.
"..."
Only then did Song, who had remained uninvolved, slowly lift his eyelids and say in a calm tone, "Stop."
Upon hearing this, Cao Can and the others immediately stopped what they were doing and behaved themselves beyond belief.
But the moment the officials relaxed their guard, the group moved swiftly, kicking the old nobleman who had been cursing the most hard in the backside a few more times.
You old bastard, you're so foul-mouthed!
"..."
I thought that Prime Minister Song had deceived the emperor and concealed his true gender, so it wouldn't be surprising if they argued for three days and three nights.
But who could have imagined that Fusu didn't care at all whether Song was a boy or a girl, only recognizing her talent and ability, and ignoring everything else.
The entire court of officials: "..."
Even more outrageous, Song Ye launched another scathing attack, saying something truly shocking: "Your Majesty, I have someone to recommend today. Although Lü Zhi is a woman, she is quick-witted and far surpasses many mediocre court officials in her ability to handle affairs. She is worthy of being given an important position."
His opening remarks bypassed all questions of accountability and criticism, delivering a devastating blow to the entire court.
"???"
You've already deceived the emperor, and now you want to recommend other women to court?!
So all that fighting to the death not only failed to bring down Song Ye, but actually gave her an opportunity?
Having just proven that women can serve as prime ministers, he immediately wants to promote female officials and pave the way for women all over the world?
Cao Can, Zhou Bo, and the others immediately straightened their backs, looking completely at ease, secretly pleased with themselves: their Prime Minister never suffers a loss, his main strategy is to use the opponent's strength against them!
Taking advantage of this disturbance by aristocratic families, Song successfully recommended Lü Zhi for a government position, making her the second female official in the Qin Dynasty.
The nobles: "?"
They just said it out of curiosity.

The author says:
(This article clearly states at the very beginning: "Contains personal interpretations")
(The Qin Dynasty's First Emperor's office was Zhangtai Palace, but since it was mentioned earlier that the sky was covered, for the sake of easier understanding, the camera will show the Imperial Study. This article has 22 words. I checked and found that the term "Imperial Study" only appeared three times in the entire text, and all of them were used to explain the scene when the camera showed the sky.)
(The timeline under the celestial canopy uses Zhangtai Palace.)
(This contains personal settings! Personal settings! Personal settings! Please do not attempt to dredge this up!)
(Thank you! Hope you enjoyed reading!)
(Random thoughts: I've written several books about the Qin Dynasty, and I've researched all the available information. Many of the personal settings are set up to maintain the overall tone of the story: for example, in another book about cute babies and lighthearted daily life in the Qin Dynasty, many of the historical backgrounds are simplified by personal settings.)
(My book is a bit more rigorous than others. In order to make it a little more logical, I, the Living Yama, even made the female protagonist survive until she reached 120 before completing her "savior of the world and peace" mission. What does that mean?)
(Besides ensuring that ordinary people have enough to eat and wear, they also need housing, support, roads, education, dignity, hope, and ideological awakening. This requires the accumulation of several generations. Living to 120 years old is not the author's limit, but the female protagonist's limit.)
(I hope you enjoy reading this lightly. This is just a semi-fictional historical novel with a focus on light entertainment. There will be more fictionalized portrayals of officials and the imperial examination system later on.)
(Finally, I want to say: History is not a solo performance, but a collective drama performed by millions of people!!!)
