"This is a very important item for a certain person, please take a look at it first!" Xu Junze didn't say much first, but asked the queen mother to read the contents of the letter first.

The Empress Dowager gave Xu Junze a meaningful look, and she was very curious and puzzled. Xu Junze rarely called her "Mother-in-law". Usually, when he saw her, he would address her as "Empress Dowager". It seems that he has something to ask for today. .

The Queen Mother turned her eyes back to the paper full of words, and saw a striking line written on the first line: "A strong young man makes the country strong, and a wise young man makes the country wise!"

The queen mother was deeply shocked by the short twelve words, she raised her eyes to look at Xu Junze again, and saw that he was standing upright beside him with no superfluous expression on his face, she continued to look down until she finished the last word.

The queen mother's face became serious and dignified, she slowly stood up and walked to the window, paused for a while, then returned to the chair and sat down, she directly asked Xu Junze, "These are your daughter-in-laws?" written?"

Xu Junze thought that the queen mother might have recognized Lin Shuran's handwriting, so he nodded, and continued casually: "It was written by my wife. She wants to set up an academy. These are her ideas!"

The Empress Dowager had a smile on her face, asked Xu Junze to sit down beside her, and said to him: "Now, don't you blame Aijia and the Emperor for insisting on marrying you back then? You are a great daughter-in-law, kind and filial, Generous, decent, smart, and pleasant, the most important thing is that this child has a strong heart and courage that ordinary people don't have. It seems that she is the only one who can control the dozen or so mischievous children in your family. What is valuable is that she not only Thinking about the children of the Xu family, and also thinking about the tens of thousands of children of our Jin Dynasty, he is a person with great righteousness in his heart."

Hearing the empress dowager praise Lin Shuran so much, Xu Junze and You Rongyan, he is now very glad that he did not insist on opposing this marriage at the beginning, otherwise he would regret it for a few lifetimes, of course he is also very grateful to the empress dowager, the emperor and his father-in-law, if not for their help To make it happen, I might still be alone now, and I can't feel the taste of love.

"Mother-in-law, I would like to ask you to help her open the academy, so that she will have less resistance!" Xu Junze did not beat around the bush, and directly stated his intention for coming.

The queen mother responded readily: "This is a good thing, the Ai family promises you, don't worry, it will satisfy you and your wife!"

Xu Junze stood up gratefully and saluted the queen mother. The queen mother would almost always agree to him tolerantly and help him fulfill his requests from childhood to adulthood, no matter whether they were reasonable or unreasonable. So far, only the marriage between him and Lin Shuran The Queen Mother didn't go according to his wishes, but he knew better than anyone else that the Queen Mother was really good for him.

Once he even doubted whether he was the Queen Mother's "biological son", because the Queen Mother's love and affection for him even surpassed her own son Emperor Zhao You, but when he was a child, he overheard the conversation between the Queen Mother and his master, Only then did he realize that he was really not the empress dowager's child.

At that moment, his mood was extremely lost, but it was also from that moment that he vowed to protect Zhao You well. Is it really that important whether there is a blood relationship or a close relative?He had already regarded the queen mother as his mother in his heart, so he secretly vowed to protect Zhao You well, because protecting him well was protecting his mother, and as Xu Junze grew up, his idea became more and more firm.

After that, Xu Junze left Renshou Palace and went to the imperial study to meet the emperor. After he left, the Queen Mother was also immersed in her own thoughts and did not return to her senses for a long time.

Aunt Chang noticed the abnormality of the Queen Mother, and asked worriedly: "Madam Queen Mother, is it difficult for the general to ask?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head, sadness flashed across her face, then she smiled bitterly, and sighed: "This matter can be difficult for the Ai family, even if it is embarrassing, as long as it is brought up by him, the Ai family will try their best to help him Achieved." After finishing speaking, he seemed to think of something, and muttered to himself, "It's really a natural mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they even have the same thoughts."

Aunt Chang seemed to understand, seeing the Empress Dowager returned to the dormitory, took out a dozen of yellowed old papers from the secret compartment next to the bed, looked at those papers as if they were stuck in the long memories and couldn't extricate themselves.

Another day later, the weather was clear and windless, and Lin Shuran was sitting alone at home, when suddenly the butler came to report that the Empress Dowager had sent Aunt Chang and the eunuch who passed the order to the front hall to receive the order.

Lin Shuran didn't dare to hesitate, and hurried to the front hall. Aunt Chang was waiting for her with a smile on her face. When the eunuch who passed the decree finished reading the Queen Mother's decree, Lin Shuran, who was kneeling on the ground, still didn't react for a while.

The Empress Dowager wrote in Yizhi that a royal private manor bestowed to her by the former emperor in the south of the city would be converted into a youth academy, and Lin Shuran would be the female head of the academy, and the academy would recruit female students for the first time, and officials of the third rank or above in the capital, as well as princes and nobles Send at least two children of the appropriate age in the family to the academy.

Lin Shuran never thought that the Queen Mother would support her so much. Xu Junze said that he had a way, so he went to the Queen Mother for help, but it was a bit out of line for the Jin Dynasty to run a school for women, and it was against the traditional etiquette here , especially since the "training camp" she was going to run was coeducational, and it was beyond her expectations to get the Queen Mother's permission and support.

"Ma'am, please get up!" Aunt Chang bent down to help Lin Shuran who was stunned.

"Auntie, does the Queen Mother have something else to say?" If it was just the content of the order, Lin Shuran felt that Aunt Chang would not come with her. Since she also came, it should be that the Queen Mother has something else to tell her.

Aunt Chang smiled knowingly, and said to her: "Ma'am, the Empress Dowager asked the maidservant to bring you a message, you just have to run this juvenile academy according to your own wishes, she trusts you, and just ask the Empress Dowager for any help, whether it is for People still want money, the queen mother can help you, she will protect you, don't be afraid!"

Lin Shuran's moved eyes were slightly red at this time, she felt that she was lucky enough and confident enough to get Xu Junze's support, and now that the queen mother is willing to be her backing, she must work harder and never let them down.

"It is my greatest blessing and strength, Lin Shuran, that the queen mother trusts me and supports me. If I ask my aunt to go back and give me a message for the queen mother, I will live up to everyone's expectations and run the juvenile academy well!" Lin Shuran said to Aunt Chang confidently .

"Madam is so determined, I will definitely bring this word to you!" Afterwards, Aunt Chang returned to the palace.

Lin Shuran returned to the room and looked at Yizhi in front of her. She had mixed feelings in her heart, and her expression became more serious. Her original intention was to run a smaller academy similar to a training camp, but she was suddenly entrusted with such a heavy responsibility by the Queen Mother. Naturally, I feel more responsibility. Now this is not just a simple matter of opening a private academy, it also represents the empress dowager's face, which is even more significant.
