Upon hearing this, the Fourth Master, who had originally arrived ashore, turned around and got on the boat again.

Then, he handed his hand to Ruoyin who had already arrived ashore, meaning that she would help him.

Seeing this, Su Peisheng, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.

Anyway, the emperor just wants to take the Queen's hand in a different way.

Ruoyin twitched the corner of her mouth, thinking that he was cruel!

Gritted his teeth and stepped forward to support the Fourth Master.

The Fourth Master just held her hand and raised his foot to go ashore again.

"Master, I have already ordered the people below to order a table of good wine and good food in the restaurant." As he said that, Su Peisheng led the way on one side.

Ruoyin is holding the Fourth Master on the shore.

Now that he had arrived ashore, she walked in front of him.

Because during the Southern Tour, there was basically no distinction between their daily life.

When eating together, she can use her chopsticks first, and she doesn't have to wait for him after eating.

When she sleeps at night, she will go to bed first when she is sleepy and doesn't have to fall asleep with him.

When she goes out and sees something fun and delicious, she will pull Banmei forward and buy whatever she wants, without reporting to the Fourth Master.

Even if he walked in front of him, the Fourth Master would not say anything.

He continued to stroll around him, and when he was in a good mood, he stood by and waited for her quietly.

And she was accustomed to it.

But this time, when she was walking in front, her collar was held like a chicken.

Ruoyin looked back and found that the culprit, the Fourth Master, was holding her collar.

Then she heard him say, "Go behind."

Ruoyin: "..."

She remembered that no maid was walking in front of the master.

So, he had to follow the Fourth Master silently.

Walking on the bustling streets of Suzhou, we happened to meet people from the yamen who were posting things on the notice board.

Gradually, the onlookers also approached and learned about the situation.

Seeing this, the Fourth Master raised his foot and walked towards the notice board.

After getting closer, he stopped.

Ruoyin follows immediately.

When I looked up, the yellowed notice had been posted on the notice board.

The yamen runners posted a notice, and left in a team and went to the next notice board.

The notice occupied most of the notice board, and there were densely written on it.

There are also several big red stamps in the lower right corner.

Ruoyin only felt that the red stamp was very familiar and seemed to have seen it somewhere.

She tilted her head and pondered for a while, and she remembered it.

She had seen this red stamp when she was in the Forbidden City.

Every time the imperial subordinates made a major decision, they would stamp them with one or another.

Could it be that something big happened to the court?

Thinking of this, Ruoyin looked at the content of the notice carefully.

I saw that it said:

On July 12, the third year of Yongzheng, through a female parade in Yangzhou, the court believed that there were indeed core issues in the status of women in the dynasty.

To this end, the court rectified the relevant laws and regulations of the Qing Dynasty.

First of all, in the past, "Wife beats a husband and sits on the same bed only if he beats a hundred sticks. If the husband wants to leave, he should listen. He should make a self-proclaimer and sit on it. When he breaks or above, he will check the severity of the injury. If he fights and injured three levels, he will be wounded. If he is severe, he will be killed. Therefore, he will be executed by scattering. "

It was changed to "If a wife beats her husband, she will not be injured or injured. If she is injured or injured or above, she will be convicted by a common person. The husband must confess and sit down and interrogate the husband and wife first. If she is willing to divorce, she will be punished for divorce. If she does not want to divorce, she will be redeemed for the crime of being injured and sitting. She will still be gathered after hearing the death. Therefore, the murder will be also snatched. If a husband falsely accuses his wife, he will be convicted as falsely."

What has changed here is: In the past, when a wife beats her husband, she would be guilty of being beaten and would be punished by a hundred rods.

The yamen only listens to the husband's wishes. The husband is willing to leave and can divorce without the consent of his wife. However, the husband needs to go to the yamen to sue.

In addition, if a wife beats her husband to a fracture, the punishment she receives will be a third-class worse than that of an irrelevant civilian.

Now, you will not be convicted if you have no fracture.

If the wound is more than a fracture, the husband needs to go to the yamen to sue. The punishment received by the wife is convicted of civilians who are irrelevant to the injury.

Regarding relocation, the yamen will respect the meaning of both husband and wife. No matter which party really can’t survive, relocation can be relocation.

If the husband falsely accuses his wife, the Qing Dynasty will protect the wife and the husband will be convicted of slander.

Before this, the husband slandered his wife and the laws were ignored by women.

The rest will remain unchanged.

Then, the following also wrote:

In the past, "If a husband beats his wife, he will not be injured or injured. If he is injured or above, he will be reduced to the second level of ordinary people. If his wife is required to sue himself, he will sit down. He will interrogate the husband and wife first. If he is willing to divorce, he will be punished for divorce. If he is unwilling to divorce, he will be redeemed for the crime of being injured and sitting, and he will be redeemed after hearing the crime. When he dies, he will be punished for the prison. Therefore, if his wife falsely accuses his husband, he will be convicted of the false crime. If his husband falsely accuses his wife, he will be reduced to the third level of false crime."

It was changed to "If a husband beats his wife, he will not be injured or injured. If he is injured or injured or above, he will be convicted by a person. If he is required to sue his wife and sit down, he will be questioned first. If he is willing to divorce, he will be punished for divorce. If he is unwilling to divorce, he will be redeemed for the crime of being injured or sitting. If he is still in the process of hearing the crime of being injured, he will be killed. Therefore, if he is killed, he will be executed by silence. If the husband falsely accuses his wife or his wife falsely accuses his husband, he will be convicted of falsely accusing him."

This law changes the bias towards men.

Before, the husband beat his wife and had a fracture or above, and the punishment he received was only a second-class reduction on the basis of irrelevant civilians.

Now, if a husband beats his wife or has a fracture or above, he will be punished as a woman and will be convicted of civilians who are irrelevant to the injury.

The wife had falsely accused her husband before and was convicted of false accusation.

But if a husband falsely accuses his wife, he will reduce the level of false accusation by three levels.

Now, both sides punish equality.

In addition, "the person who died will be snatched to the prison, so he will also be snatched."

It was changed to the same as women, "the one who is extremely ill will be snatched, the one who is dead will be killed. Therefore, the one who is killed will be executed by storm."

The rest will remain unchanged.

In addition to the above two points, several laws have been added.

1. It is prohibited to buy and sell maids.

2. Forced women are prohibited.

Third, promote women's education.

Fourth, promote women's labor.

5. Advocate women's business.

Six, men and women have equal wages.

7. Protect women.

8. It is prohibited to drown a baby girl.

Nine, breast tightness is prohibited.

Ten, foot binding is prohibited.

etc......

At the end, Ruoyin found the red stamp in the lower right corner.

It reads "After consulting with the court's ministers, the emperor and the empress were finally judged, so this notice was issued to the people of the Qing Dynasty."

Somehow, when Ruoyin saw this, her heart was shocked.

Because this incident can be said to be a major event she participated in in the Qing Dynasty.

However, she thought that even if the court and the Fourth Master made a decision in the end, it would be the court who would announce to the Qing Dynasty in the name of the Fourth Master.

But I never thought that it was announced together in the name of her and the Fourth Master.

At this moment, her cheeks were flushed with excitement and her heart was jumping happily.

This kind of jump has nothing to do with love, it is just pure joy and little beauty.
