"In time, the Song of Mulan will spread throughout the Tang dynasty."
After the Song of Mulan ended, Yin-yang Zi walked out of the exhibition hall with a solemn expression. At this moment, he truly felt Mo Jiazi's counterattack.
The Song of Mulan's poetic talent was peerless, and it conquered the scholars. The Mulan Painting was humorous and interesting, and it was loved by children.
The Song of Mulan was wonderful, easy to understand, and catchy. Its target audience was the general public, regardless of gender or age. Even illiterate women would be able to hum a few times. Who said that women were inferior to men?
In this way, the Song of Mulan, the Mulan Painting, and the Mulan Song directly encompassed all classes of the Tang dynasty. The image of Hua Mulan entered thousands of households and traveled to every corner of the Tang dynasty. At the same time, the prophecy of the female protagonist Chang blossomed throughout the Tang dynasty.
"The prophecy of the female protagonist Chang has come true," the Sorcerer said in disbelief.
For a long time, even if the prophecies of the School of Yin-Yang were to come true, it would take a long time to ferment, and some would even die in the womb. However, after Mo Jiazi's three axes, the female protagonist Chang had unexpectedly become popular in the Tang dynasty. This was probably the fastest prophecy of the School of Yin-Yang to come true!
"Mo Jiazi!" Yin-yang Zi gritted his teeth. He was extremely aggrieved. The prophecy of the female protagonist Chang had indeed come true, and the speed was countless times faster than he expected. However, this was not the result he wanted. He bet the fortune of the School of Yin-Yang in order to frame the Mo family. Looking at the history books, whenever a female protagonist was in power, the evaluation would be based on prejudice. Yin-yang Zi wanted to use the prejudice of the people against women to attack the Mo family.
He did not expect Mo Jiazi's attainments in the Yin-Yang Art to be so high. First, he put the perfect heroine Hua Mulan on the stage to promote the beauty of the female protagonist Chang. Then, he hid the main target of the School of Yin-Yang, Wu Meiniang, in the dark and sent her to a small cotton workshop to lie low.
Hua Mulan was originally from the previous dynasty, and was of the Yin attribute. Mo Jiazi reversed the Yin and Yang and put her in the light. Wu Meiniang was of the present world, and was of the Yang attribute, but Mo Jiazi reversed the Yin and Yang and hid her in the dark. The continuous reversal of Yin and Yang immediately dissolved the attacks of the School of Yin-Yang..
"Mo Jiazi, do you think this is the end? Have you forgotten that women are born with the Yin attribute? Even the slightest fluctuation in the real world will cause their minds to wander. Wu Meiniang used to be the high and mighty Senior Sister of the Mo family, and arrogantly rejected the destiny of being the female protagonist of the royal family. How can she be willing to bow down and waste her youth in a small cotton workshop?" Yin-yang Zi said with a ruthless expression.
The Little Sorcerer raised his eyebrows and said, "Master, you mean to instigate Wu Meiniang to rebel?"
Yin-yang Zi smiled confidently and said, "It's not that I want to instigate Wu Meiniang to rebel. It's Wu Meiniang herself who will turn evil. You must know that once a woman becomes vicious, it's chilling."
The Little Sorcerer thought of the methods of the women in power in history and couldn't help but shiver.
"Send a message to the Qian family to add some obstacles to Wu Meiniang. Send a message to His Highness Prince Jin secretly to inform him of Wu Meiniang's current situation. Under such a contrast, how many women in the world can abide by their hearts?" Yin-yang Zi said confidently.
It had to be said that Yin-yang Zi's intelligence was extraordinary. He could see the weakness of the women in the female protagonist's situation at a glance. Those women suddenly broke free from oppression and restrictions, and wantonly abused their power. Coupled with the women's physical defects, they would rebel against the Dao and cause a great disaster. The dark histories of the women in the history books were not all wrong.
"Master is wise!" The Little Sorcerer said with a face full of admiration.
He had to admit that his master was right. If they had left Chang 'an City earlier, all the plans of the Yin-Yang School would not have been broken by the Mo family, but would have been used by Mo Jiazi instead. Only by staying in Chang' an City could they deal with the situation as they saw fit.
Inside the Mo family's cotton workshop.
Wu Meiniang looked at the desolate workshop and could not help but frown.
Now the cotton workshop was an empty shell. Dozens of women needed to be fed, and the cotton workshop had few orders. The machines were old, and the cotton cloth produced by the workshop was not sold at all. It had been unable to make ends meet. This was originally the project of the Mo family's village, and it was destined to have no future. Now her task was to carry forward it.
"Mei Niang, this workshop was originally set up by Marquis to settle the family members of the Mo family's village in the city. It was not intended to make money." A daughter-in-law of the Mo family said with a face full of shame. These daughters-in-law of the Mo family could not be compared with the women of Mo Jiazi, who were born and raised here. A good workshop was finally closed down.
Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "It's not your fault. There are countless cotton workshops like this in Chang 'an City, not to mention countless women spinning day and night at home. The competition for cotton in Chang' an City has always been fierce."
"Marquis also knows the reason, so he doesn't blame us. It's a pity that we have implicated Mei Niang." The daughter-in-law of the Mo family smiled bitterly.
"Implicated?" Wu Meiniang said disapprovingly, "It doesn't mean that the competition is fierce. The past is the past, and the present is the present. As long as I, Wu Meiniang, am here, I will definitely lead the cotton workshop to turn the situation around."
Wu Meiniang was a woman of her words. Soon, she led the daughters-in-law of the Mo family to work hard. Since there was not enough manpower, Wu Meiniang set an example by herself and went to work personally.
Since the weaving could not be sold, Wu Meiniang went to the workshop personally and contacted the cloth merchants to sell.
In order to save money, Wu Meiniang went to repair the looms herself. Just to save a little money, the whole cotton workshop was still in full swing, although it was shabby.
"My poor child, how can you do such rough work?" Suddenly, a sad voice came. Mrs. Yang was looking at Wu Meiniang with tears in her eyes, who was carrying a huge sack.
Seeing this, Wu Meiniang frowned and said, "Mother, why are you here? Why did you come to Chang 'an instead of staying in the Mo family village?"
"There are rumors that you are no longer the senior sister of the Mo family and are weaving here. If I didn't see it for myself, I wouldn't believe it. You are the daughter of a duke, how can you do such rough work?" Mrs. Yang said with a pained expression.
Wu Mei Niang retorted sarcastically, "Back then, when we were ostracized in the House of Duke, my mother had to sew clothes for others to barely make a living. Why are you looking down on this kind of livelihood today?"
"How can it be the same? Mother was forced to do it, but you are different. You should be the Princess of Jin and enjoy the glory and wealth. Why are you like a common woman?" Mrs. Yang scolded.
Wu Meiniang suddenly became angry and said angrily, "If you didn't act on your own, how could I be punished?"
Mrs. Yang's momentum suddenly weakened. She knew that she could no longer control her daughter. She muttered a few words and then left resentfully.
Not long after Mrs. Yang left, Wu Meiniang wiped the sweat and continued to work hard. Suddenly, she felt a hot gaze looking at her. She raised her head and saw Li Zhi, Prince of Jin.
