Chapter 1763 Female officer


    Later generations chanted the slogan that women can hold up half the sky for the first time in the millennium, which can be regarded as confirming that women''s status is equal to that of men. But everything is too much, and later some women don''t want equality, but female boxing.


    Even though she eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles, she is still a good woman''s remarks, and her behavior of chilling, trembling, screaming and spitting at every turn has violated the meaning and gone to the extreme.


    But looking at it the other way around, is it because the balance between men and women has always been tilted for thousands of years, and then later generations wanted to balance it, and ended up adding more weight to one end by accident?


    If the general balance can be achieved in the Han Dynasty, what will happen in the future?


    After all, despite the oppression and restraint of the subsequent feudal dynasty, there are still many outstanding women emerging.


    Not to mention outstanding women in literature, even if some people in later generations think that women can stand on the battlefield only after the Industrial Revolution because of the large-scale development of long-range lethal weapons, it is actually a bit biased.


    After all, there are also Mu Guiying, the female general of the Yang family who are very familiar to future generations...


    There are also well-known figures in the Tang Dynasty, Princess Pingyang, Detachment of Women...


    There is also Xiao Chuo who is not very familiar with, who pushed Daliao to the peak by himself...


    There is even a thirteen-year-old ferocious loli Xun Guanniang from the Western Jin Dynasty, leading the dead to break out and save her father...


    Is the martial arts, courage, political ability, and commanding ability of these women related to the degree of industrialization?


    Even after the Tang Dynasty, under the repeated suppression of Confucianism, there are still Yang Miaozhen, Yang Zhaozhuo, Tang Saier, and Qin Liangyu!


    Continuing the policy of suppressing and restraining women is almost equivalent to tying one foot of China''s progress, and there will be some pity and sadness anyway.


    Obviously he could run faster, but he stumbled himself.


    "Why are scholars afraid of it?" Fei Qian asked, "Or, do you think women are inferior to men?"


    Pang Tong was silent for a while, and said: "No...women are more intelligent, such as Dr. Cai...But, my lord, you can know, why do you rarely use female officials?"


    "Scholar, let''s talk about it?" Fei Qian said.


    Obviously, before Cai Yan was a female doctor, the other officials didn''t have much opinion, but now that Fei Qian has pushed Cai Yan to the fore, Pang Tong has noticed something different.


    Many people, including Pang Tong, know what kind of impact the promotion of sentence reading will have on the entire cultural circle, and what impact it will have on future scholars. Therefore, Cai Yan can now be said to be a banner for women in the cultural circle. And being a good official is also the concept in most people''s minds, so Cai Yan''s next step into the political circle under Fei Qian''s command seems to be inevitable.


    But is it really a good thing to let Cai Yan enter the political situation?


    In other words, if Fei Qian wants to start with Cai Yan and register a large number of female officials, it will have a considerable impact on the existing political circle. Will this impact be a good thing?


    Pang Tong didn''t have any malice towards Cai Yan, and Pang Tong didn''t even care if Cai Yan took any official position. After all, according to Cai Yan''s temperament, if it is about Confucianism, Pang Tong would not dare to say that he is stronger than Cai Yan, but when it comes to strategy, There are only two words left for Cai Yan, hehe...


    It’s just that Pang Tong has noticed that Fei Qian seems to have this intention, and as a counselor, Pang Tong has the responsibility to remind Fei Qian that Cai Yan is elegant and kind, and he is not suitable to be an official. And if Fei Qian goes a step further and starts to want to appoint female officials, the risks involved need to be clearly explained.


    Fei Qian didn’t feel offended because Pang Tong’s remarks related to Cai Yan. After all, Pang Tong was not targeting Cai Yan. At the same time, Pang Tong’s ideas may not be his own, but may also represent some other people’s ideas.


    Pang Tong arched his hands and said: "The difference between a man and a woman is not strength, not wisdom, but pregnancy."


    Fei Qian was taken aback for a moment, somewhat unexpected.


    Fei Qian thought that Pang Tong would say that men are strong, women are weak, men are rational, women are emotional, or that men have long-term vision and women have long hair and short-sightedness. , but did not expect that the difference between men and women mentioned by Pang Tong turned out to be this...


    There is really nothing wrong with this point of view of the difference between men and women.


    Of course, regardless of men and women, there are some infertile people, but since we are discussing universality, we cannot use very specific examples to illustrate. Most women bear the responsibility of giving birth to the next generation in human society, otherwise human society cannot continue and develop.


    Fei Qian rubbed the beard on his chin.


    In some knowledge systems accepted by Feiqian’s descendants, some talk about the evolution of matriarchal society and patriarchal society, which are basically explained according to official articles. It is generally said that women are more flexible than men and have advantages in collecting , and the collection is relatively safe. In the case of a large loss of hunting men, taking older women as the leader can accumulate more experience and better ensure the reproduction of a race. Therefore, in the Stone Age, it was a matriarchal society. Then when we came to the primitive society, we entered the patrilineal society...


    But thinking about it now, it seems that such an official statement is just one of the "cover-ups", or strictly speaking, it is not a cover-up, but a part of it is displayed, like an iceberg in the water, what you see and what you actually see , are often not consistent, but it cannot be said that what you see is not an "iceberg".


    "In this way, it''s not ''pregnancy'', but ''heir''..." Fei Qian said slowly.


    This is actually a very heavy topic.


    After all, the closer to the essence, the more **** it is, and I can''t bear to look directly at it.


    Pang Tong thought for a while, and agreed with Fei Qian.


    For human beings, there are extreme people in ancient and modern China and abroad, but it cannot be said that the small part of extremes represents the whole human beings, and the whole human beings still have the instinct of life continuation in their bones, or in other words, they attach great importance to it. continuation of life.


    is the offspring.


    The fundamental reason for the transition from a matrilineal society to a patrilineal society is also the offspring.


    The reason is very simple. It is a bit simplistic to just use gathering and hunting to distinguish between male and female societies, because in primitive societies, productivity is very low, and there is not much difference in labor gains between men and women, and a huge economic gap cannot be formed. , but there is only one kind of production that is unique to women, which is to give birth to the next generation.


    Assuming that there is no difference in social status between men and women, in the primitive society, with the cultural level at that time, due to the physiological differences between men and women, many children only knew their mother and did not know their father. Therefore, the mother of the child is clear, while the father is not clear, so if a patriarchal society is formed, the clan relationship is not clear. If it was a patrilineal society at that time, when distributing property, they would not know who their own sons were, so it would be difficult for social resources to form a normal inheritance, and if they could not be accumulated, they would not be able to form a powerful tribe.


    The relationship between matrilineal clans is very clear. Mothers only need to distribute social property to their own daughters. This relationship is very direct and simple, and it is also in line with the undeveloped brain capacity of primitive people. When the relationship is clear, there will be fewer disputes and resource wealth. Accumulated and passed down from generation to generation, it may eventually form a large clan tribe.


    So why was the matrilineal clan later replaced by the patrilineal clan?


    The fundamental reason is still the difference in the physiological structure of men and women.


    When civilization develops to the level of knowing both its mother and its father, the matrilineal clan will show its own great disadvantage. At this time, the premise is that if a patrilineal society is formed, the clan relationship can be basically clear, like a matriarchal society, and the social property of one''s clan is passed on from generation to generation.


    Then, if you want a clan to further thrive, you must first ensure the prosperity of the population, and the most irreparable situation for a clan and tribe is the extinction of heirs.


    In a matrilineal society, no matter how many men a female clan leader intermarries, her fertility is still about the same as that of a single man. Moreover, the relatively primitive medical level and living conditions, as well as the average age limit, also determine that a female You can''t have many children in a lifetime, and according to the probability, half of them are boys. If you continue to use women as heirs, it is easy to have extinction.


    However, the patriarchal society, that is, polygamy, changed all this. As many women as male clan leaders intermarry, their fertility is as many times as that of matriarchal society. Therefore, patrilineal society gradually overcomes the resistance of men''s social status lower than that of women, and gradually replaces matrilineal society.


    So the polygamy system is actually to ensure more children, and the monogamy system in the future is because...


    Fei Qian was still waiting to continue the deduction, when suddenly a crab rushed over, cutting off his thoughts with a click.


    "In this case, Shi Yuan''s words are not false..." Fei Qian nodded and said, "It is indeed inconvenient for a woman to be an official... But, Shi Yuan, have you ever thought about Dayu''s control of the water, why not neglect it? "


    It’s not that Fei Qian has any gender bias, but that when women are pregnant, due to physiological reasons, they will cause various emotional problems. In this case, women are far more affected by hormones in their bodies than men. Regardless of whether it is a tribe or a country, the more people under the jurisdiction, the greater the responsibility, and the less you can do some irrational behavior because of emotional fluctuations.


    At the same time, women are also very vulnerable when they are pregnant, but you can’t count on your opponent to be benevolent, and you will never attack the female leader when she is giving birth...


    This kind of scene, just imagining it is drunk.


    Wan Po is yelling, hard, hard, while his subordinates are yelling, what to do, what to do...


    Cough cough cough...


    Aside from this inconvenience, another problem is more serious, that is, when the dam cannot be blocked, once the dam collapses, the impact will not be the flooding of one or two acres of farmland and crops!


    People are ambitious, the smarter they are, the more unwilling they are to be mediocre. If all the channels for women to rise normally are blocked, what will be the result?


    Thousands of people have thousands of faces, and all people have different appearances. If there are those who are willing to care for their husbands and children, naturally there are also those with high intelligence and high spirits. It is also quite scary for a woman to be ruthless, and because in a society where men are respected, a woman has to pay more if she wants to stand out. Among these costs, some are her own, and some of them must be her own. other people''s.


    When the levee burst and the mud and sand fell, the degree of destruction was extremely tragic. For example, Wu Zetian, in order to ensure that the blood-stained crown on his head would not fall off, he did not hesitate to kill his own daughter Princess Anding, poisoned his eldest son Li Hong, forced to kill the second prince Li Xian, poisoned his niece Mrs. Wei Guo, and killed her nephew. He Lanminzhi, starved to death daughter-in-law Zhao, killed cousin Wu Weiliang, Wu Huaiyun, forced to death grandson Li Chongrun, nephew Wu Yanji...


    Wu Zetian not only killed his own relatives, but also unscrupulously purged the Li family of the Tang Dynasty. He killed 34 members of the Tang family and strangled almost all the capable Li royals.


    At the same time, Wu Zetian also killed thirty-six court ministers. Many of the ministers were not because they were incompetent or had any faults, but because they just felt that the prince had grown up, and Wu Zetian should keep his word and return the government. There are still many tough bones The veteran general caused great damage to the national defense force, and this damage induced the rebellion of nomadic peoples such as the frontier Turks, which eventually led to the Anshi Rebellion.


    Conversely, if Wu Meiniang was given a more relaxed political environment, Wu Meiniang’s methods were not used for internal friction, but were all used for external affairs. With the peak strength of the Tang Dynasty at that time, it might have suddenly reached the horizon...


    Pang Tong frowned and said, "My lord, I want a woman to be an official now, so I ask her to guide me?"


    Fei Qian nodded, and then slowly said: "There are many intelligent people in the world, are they all men? If each worker is guarded and has his own responsibility, the family will be like a rock, and the country will be stable. If only women are allowed to flow The younger generation cannot be an official, the fool is stupid, what should the wise be? There are stones in the road, and dams in the middle of the river.


    "Of course there are differences between men and women, but there are also differences in official positions. There are duties, duties, uprightness, honesty, morality, anti-corruption, responsibility, etiquette, and customs. Divide their duties, work in seeking talents, and relax in appointments, just like the four seasons of the sky, spring, summer, autumn and winter each have their own energy, wouldn''t it be wonderful?"


    These words of Fei Qian are very reasonable, but these great principles cannot directly convince Pang Tong,


    Because the truth is too vague.


    Pang Tong frowned slightly, looking at Fei Qian, his expression seemed to be conveying two words, that''s it?


    "Haha..." Fei Qian suddenly laughed, pointed at Pang Tong, and said, "Sure enough, it''s still a matter of deception... This is the first thing, and the second..."


    Fei Qian slowly put away his smile, and continued, "Secondly, you can mess with the hearts of the children of the gentry... Shi Yuan may wish to think about it, the marriage of the gentry, many talented women are confined to the courtyard at home... If you encourage it a little at this time..."


    Naturally, Fei Qian is not like old classmate Cao, first seeing how other people’s wives are doing before deciding whether to make friends with this person, but in this way, the scope of Nashi is doubled invisibly!


    And imagine that in the past, men were still in control, and some acted like they wanted to do it or not. Now if a woman grabs an official position first, she will inevitably face the situation of a female boss, and there may even be a tiger roar at home: "Old coward, little softie, I will do it myself!"


    Isn’t it fun?


    Fei Qian laughed a few times, and finally added again when Pang Tong''s eyes widened, "there is a third... In fact, it is also a ''heir'' as Shi Yuan just said, but A certain ''heir'' is not an heir, but an heir! If a woman can also be an official, then she will have twice as many heirs! Hehehe... when the time comes..."


    "Tweet grace order!" Pang Tong almost jumped up, and suddenly realized, "This is a strategy of turning yin into yang! It turns out that the master''s intention is here!"
