Chapter 1890: Zhiyin Prison, Female Official System(2/2)
Now, as a full-time female official, and even the issue of female inheritance rights that will be promoted in the next step, may be able to untie the shackles that the feudal dynasty has entangled on women. Of course, it is also possible that with the evolution of the times, Fei Qian is just doing a white job and cannot completely
What to change...
However, Fei Qian felt that since he was a descendant, he could not follow the crowd.
Especially at the higher level, the political structure.
Just like the Zhou Dynasty established the three major pieces of feudal inheritance, Fei Qian also wanted to establish a huge institutional system, making this institutional system strong and solid enough that even after Fei Qian was born, he could still rely on inertia to continue
Keep rolling for a while, the longer the better. As for whether it can continue in the future, and whether there will be talented and talented people to add bricks and lubrication to this system, Fei Qian cannot predict, but it cannot be said that because of the uncertainty of the future,
Just do nothing now.
China has imprisoned women for thousands of years, which is basically equivalent to fighting other countries with one hand tied. Just imagine, what if the other hand was also let go?
Although it is said that due to medical conditions, living standards, etc., the protection of women and children was insufficient, resulting in the childbirth process occupying most of the space of ancient women, this is not a normal situation.
Times will change. With the construction of Chang'an Medical Center, female doctors specializing in gynecological diseases are also being trained...
To give another extreme example, even war cannot be said to belong entirely to men. After all, the consequences of war are borne by all men and women. Why must women be refused to go to the battlefield and not allowed to take up swords and guns to fight for their own lives?
Hope of going down?
Regardless of how the Shang Dynasty was smeared by later generations, during the Shang Dynasty, there was a record of "three thousand women were good, and ten thousand troops were sent to conquer the country." That is to say, three thousand female soldiers were used to organize an additional ten thousand military brigade.
Then set out to conquer the earth.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were also Rui Bowan's mother and Deng Man, the wife of Chu Wu, who were all powerful among women. There were even some who had mixed reputations, such as Kong Boji...
Fei Qian felt that no matter what Pang Tong said, he would be able to find some reasons to convince Pang Tong, but he didn't expect that Pang Tong pondered for a while and then said: "In the long run, we must not only accept female officers..."
Fei Qian was about to retort when he suddenly felt something was wrong and blinked, "So, does Shi Yuan not hate female officials?"
Pang Tong laughed and said: "If all the female officials in the world are like Cai Jiajia, what's the evil? When the lord chooses scholars, he should balance them with virtue and talent, and he can only choose men and women? Isn't it wrong?"
"What if it's Shi Yuan's intention?" Fei Qian felt that Pang Tong's words made sense, so he didn't have to stick to his original plan.
"The Cai family has a good academic background and is well remembered by Bo Wenqiang. It is not inappropriate to appoint him as the direct supervisor. However, for the other positions, talented people, regardless of gender, will be tested. If they are qualified, they will be appointed. If they are not, they will be discarded.
It..." Pang Tong looked at Fei Qian and continued to add, "If Cai people have talents to promote, they should also try them in the court. Only in this way can we find the right way..."
It is here that the memory of later generations has influenced Fei Qian, making Fei Qian always feel that women were very discriminatory in ancient officialdom, but in fact among the current big men, those who are discriminatory are all those who are too emotional and unreasonable.
, regardless of gender. However, sometimes women will be more obvious in this aspect, such as Empress Dowager Xuan who compared the bed to foreign ministers, such as Empress Dowager Dou who threw the shaft to the wild boar as a companion...
In fact, from the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, to the Qin and Han Dynasties, and even to the Northern Wei Dynasty, and even the Sui and Tang Dynasties, although the proportion of female officials did gradually decrease, it was not completely unacceptable to the court. Even during the Northern Wei Dynasty, the number of female officials was more than that of the Han Dynasty.
, and became more institutionalized in the Tang Dynasty, everyone knows it, and then in the Song Dynasty...
Confucius once said, "The wife is the lord of the relationship." However, later generations of people who called it "carrying forward the greatness" thought that this sentence did not exist and only talked about the so-called three obedience and four virtues.
What Pang Tong said is also very pertinent. Cai Yong was the historian appointed by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. Historically, when Wang Yun wanted to kill Cai Yong, Cai Yong also said that he was willing to endure torture such as stabbing and cutting his feet with a sword to save the rest of his life and complete the history of the Han Dynasty.
So from this point of view, it is a good story that Cai Yan inherited his father's wish and entered Zhiyin Prison to compile the history of Han Dynasty.
More importantly, Cai Yan does have strength in this area. Whether it is from the lectures at Qinglong Temple or the talents he has shown in the academy, he is admirable. Therefore, Pang Tong does not object to Cai Yan serving as the supervisor of Zhiyin.
position, and even said that if Cai Yan felt it was inconvenient to be alone, he would like to have some close friends to accompany him. As long as he has real talent and knowledge and passes a public examination, he can still hold an official position, etc.
Pang Tong's only refutation of Fei Qian was that Fei Qian had previously said that only female officials could serve in the Zhiyin Prison, believing that this was discrimination against men...
This... okay...
After thinking about it, Fei Qian nodded in agreement and removed this restriction, and it was basically confirmed that Cai Yan would be officially appointed as the Supervisor of Zhiyin on the tenth day of the lunar month, mainly responsible for compiling the history of Han Dynasty. Follow-up
The construction of Zhiyin Yuan will be started one after another after Cai Yan's formal appointment.
Cai Yan should not be just a beautiful vase, she should get her own position, and this position is based on her ability, not gender or appearance.
In the workplace of later generations, there are always some women who enjoy various women's benefits and do not do heavy work or menial work. They are picky and picky, while complaining about how difficult it is for women to get into high-level positions, and then they are tired of other male employees.
I turn a blind eye to things like working hard, staying up late, working overtime, losing my hair, dark circles under my eyes, etc.
After discussing and finalizing one thing, Fei Qian picked up a draft of the document from the desk and handed it to Pang Tong. "How about Shi Yuan taking a look at this matter?"
Now that the soldiers are free to make repairs, the rest of the people cannot be free.
Two words, make trouble!
Four words, keep making trouble!
