When Shen Qingwu was three years old, her grandfather recorded her name in the family tree - as the "eldest grandson".
From then on, she had only one way to live: read more, suffer more, and risk her life than anyone else.
The first county trial case at the age of twelve. At the age of fourteen, he ranked among the top three in the hospital examination. At the age of sixteen, he moved to Jiangnan and settled in Yuan Dynasty. At the age of 18, he entered Beijing to take the imperial examination, and his policy paper "On the Benefits of Opening the Sea" was posted outside the ceremony department, and no one could refute it for ten days. On the day she won the first prize, she met a young man at the Qionglin Banquet who had wine thrown at her but no one paid attention to her - the seventh prince Jiang Xuan.
Later, she chose the narrowest path: entering the household department, building military camps, opening sea bans, and establishing northern borders. Someone asked, "Why are you, the son of a merchant, standing here?" She replied: "With the six testimonials from the county examination, the government examination, the hospital examination, the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination."
She thought she was just taking a different path. Until the rainy night when Prince Jing's palace was transformed, Jiang Xuan broke into the prison in eunuch's clothes, knelt down and fed her a bowl of porridge: "You eat, and I'll leave."
Forty years later, she added a line of small words at the end of her official appointment: "I have concealed something from Your Majesty for forty years." The whole court was in an uproar. The new emperor only answered one sentence in the morning: "I don't care whether she is a boy or a girl. I only know whose hands the great Zhou Dynasty was established in these forty years."
She is Shen Qingwu. She stood on the Fengtian Temple.
