That scorching gaze might have frightened an ordinary woman.

However, Wang Shijiu's back was straight, her posture was graceful, her eyes were not squinting, she slowly walked through the crowd and came to the front of His Majesty.

Her expression is calm, her posture is calm, and her movements are full of the nobility unique to the aristocratic family.

She has thousands of years of accumulation of Langya Wang family in her body, and she has enough pride and noble capital.

Looking at Wang Shijiu like this, even if some officials are still secretly cursing "Si Chen, the world is upside down", they have to admit: She is indeed a daughter of a noble family, her manners are noble and her behavior is extraordinary!

"Your Majesty, Wang Shijiu, bachelor of the Bowen Museum, pays homage to your majesty!"

Wang Shijiu tried her best to keep herself calm.

Outsiders only think that she behaves calmly and has a calm appearance.

In fact, her heart was beating very fast.

She, a woman, was able to enter the hall openly and come to the court of men!

What a rare and cherished opportunity this is.

She has studied hard for more than ten years for this day.

For this day, the Queen Mother has been planning hard for a long time!

At this moment, standing in the court is not only Wang’s Nineteenth Mother, but also thousands of women with dreams and ambitions!

Wang Shijiu's heart was surging and she was inexplicably excited.

This cannot be said to be a historic moment, but it is a breakthrough for her and the several female officials around Queen Mother He.

A woman finally entered the court, not as someone's appendage, not as a representative of xx, but just herself!

"Wang, Bachelor Wang, no need to pay homage to me! I'm free!"

Emperor Yongcheng felt a little uncomfortable when he saw a woman wearing court clothes and holding a wat board in her hand.

However, in order to get himself out of the "predicament", Emperor Yongcheng still smiled at Wang Shijiu.

"Your Majesty, in accordance with the decree of the Queen Mother, I would like to offer you some brief suggestions on the reform of the salt policy!"

After Wang Shijiu stood up, he knelt down again, took out a memorial, and held it above his head with both hands.

"What are the opinions on salt policy reform?"

It’s salt policy again!

Also, Te Niang’s “reform”.

Because of this incident just now, Emperor Yongcheng was chased and scolded by a group of people in the city.

Finally, someone came to interrupt, and Emperor Yongcheng thought he could escape the disaster.

Unexpectedly, Wang Shijiu, the person he thought was his "savior", actually mentioned this matter again.

Damn you, what kind of pot is this?

Emperor Yongcheng's happy mood suddenly became unattractive.

However, Wang Shijiu was summoned by him. He had a "memorial" and as an emperor, he had to listen to it.

Otherwise, it is stupid!

Emperor Yongcheng:......

"What's the point? Just say it!"

Closing his eyes, Emperor Yongcheng felt a little desperate.

It seems that he cannot escape this disaster today!

He didn't even bother to read the memorial in advance and just let Wang Shijiu read the memorial himself.

Live or die, good or bad, just leave it to fate!

"I obey!"

Wang Shijiu responded respectfully, and then began to read her memorial aloud.

Wang Shijiu's proposal is basically similar to Emperor Yongcheng's reforms.

Re-register salt fields, set salt water standards, collect and repay taxes owed by "salt merchants".

"laugh!"

Before Wang Shijiu finished reading the memorial, someone among the officials laughed.

"Scholar Wang, do you people in the museum only know how to study behind closed doors? You don't know anything about what happens outside the door?"

The man said angrily, pointing directly at Wang Shijiu's nose and scolding her for "working behind closed doors."

"That is, there have been frequent conflicts in the capital because of the salt issue, which has almost triggered civil commotion and mutiny. Instead of saying that he would relieve His Majesty's worries, Academician Wang actually talked about restructuring!"

"Isn't that right? Tsk tsk, she is indeed a woman. She has long hair but short knowledge!"

"That's right, Grand Scholar Wang! Since you are His Majesty's minister, you should live on the Emperor's salary and bear the Emperor's worries! Instead of boasting here!"

"Haha, bachelor? Fifth grade? Bah!"

Some people in the crowd kept booing, and some even laughed outright.

They deliberately emphasize the pronunciation of words such as "big" and "bachelor" to avoid making the irony too obvious.

Wang Shijiu's father, Wang Zheng, was also in the court.

Seeing my daughter being ridiculed and criticized by so many bad men, I felt very sad.

He straightened his back and wanted to stand up to help his daughter.

Wang Yuan, who was kneeling in the front row, seemed to notice his son's little movements.

He turned his head slightly and gave his son a "take it easy" look from the corner of his eye.

Wang Zheng: ...Okay, listen to father!

He believed that his father would never let Nineteenth Mother be wronged.

Her ears were filled with sarcasm and laughter, and Wang Shijiu's pretty face turned red for a moment.

But soon, she controlled herself.

She ignored the crowd's disturbance and continued to read her memorial——

"...the Salt Administration Department was established to take charge of salt administration throughout the world. The Salt Administration Department has introduced a new method of making salt, and now has 100,000 stones of exquisite sea salt, which will be shipped to the capital in the near future!"

What?

Originally, everyone was still laughing at Wang Shijiu.

However, in the chaos, they all seemed to be stunned when they heard the words "new method of making salt" and "one hundred thousand stones of refined sea salt will be transported to the capital soon".

What?

When did Queen Mother He establish a salt administration department and develop a new method for making salt?

Nowadays, people even directly obtain finished products worth 100,000 stones.

One hundred thousand stones may sound like a lot, but when distributed to the capital and a dozen surrounding counties, it is nothing at all.

But the problem is, the important thing is not these 100,000 stones, but Queen Mother He, oh no, the imperial court actually mastered the new method of making salt.

If you can get 100,000 stones today, you can get more salt continuously in the future.

Officials from aristocratic families suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

What worried them even more was what was happening later. They heard Wang Shijiu still reciting: "The official salt of the Salt Administration Department must not be sold for more than a hundred coins."

boom!

One hundred coins per fight?

There was a roar in the court hall.

You know, the price of salt on the market now is basically three to four hundred cents per bucket.

Queen Mother He was so powerful that a Salt Administration Department and a new salt production method directly reduced the price of salt by three or four times.

Even Emperor Yongcheng was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide.

Zheng Nian'er once told him that if salt was made according to the method of drying salt, the price of salt could be controlled to less than one hundred yuan per bucket.

Could it be that the new method of making salt that Queen Mother He came up with was also sun-dried salt?

Is that why the cost is so low?

Emperor Yongcheng was shocked and doubtful, and officials from aristocratic families, including Wang Yuan, had already stirred up turmoil in their hearts.

A change comparable to a major earthquake is coming.

The salt administration is really going to be restructured. With such low-priced salt, Queen Mother He is holding a trump card. She can regulate the salt administration how she wants!

As for the aristocratic families, they can only be forced to cooperate.
