long live the queen

Chapter 110

Yang Yi thought about it for seven days.

During this period, Concubine Zhuang was released, Xu Zhaoyi was imprisoned in the Cold Palace, and the punishment for the rest of the people who were not deeply involved would not be harsh, all these were Wei Yunqing's intentions.Yang Yi wanted to kill Qian Lang, but under Wei Yunqing's persuasion, he was only sentenced to exile for two thousand miles.

When Yang Yi told Wei Yunqing the result, it was when they were alone after she went to the cabinet to discuss matters.

"Sister Yunqing, the two years you mentioned...I'll give it to you." Although he had thought about it for a long time, it was still extremely difficult for Yang Yi to say this.

Wei Yunqing was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "You just need to figure it out, then I'll get ready, and when Liu Huiniang and the others come back, I'll leave."

Yang Yi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, Liu Huiniang had only been out to sea for a while, and it would take several months to come back, although Sister Yun Qing would have to leave sooner or later, it would be best if she could leave later.

"But Sister Yunqing, I also have some conditions." Yang Yi added.

"Talk about it." Wei Yunqing said, he said it, and if she disagreed with it, it's a different matter.

"The first one, I will send someone to escort you all the way. Although the territory of Daliang is still relatively calm, it is inevitable that there will be some Xiaoxiao who don't have long eyes."

"Okay, you can choose the candidates, but the number should not be too many."

"Okay." Seeing that Wei Yunqing didn't object, Yang Yi smiled, "Secondly, when you're away, Sister Yunqing, you have to write to me from time to time..."

Wei Yunqing thought for a while, then nodded: "Yes."

Yang Yi was in a better mood, and continued: "Third...you must come back in two years."

Wei Yunqing looked at Yang Yi and smiled, "Okay, I'll be back."

Yang Yi became happy and smiled like a child.

The time for Liu Huiniang's return is uncertain, but after getting Yang Yi's approval, Wei Yunqing began to prepare.

Currently, Wei Yunqing is the only teacher in the Women's Academy, and her knowledge cannot be taught in a short while, and it is not so easy to train successors.Moreover, after careful consideration, she found that the mathematics she taught might have the value of dissemination, but otherwise, it is not easy to spread.If we want to promote the women's academy and make it last for a long time, we can't do without more practical things.Therefore, in addition to mathematics, she decided that another course that the women's college should focus on is law.

In this era, there is no distinction between judiciary and administration, but the imperial examinations only test things of the Confucian school, and many officials engaged in judicial work lack legal literacy.Wei Yunqing has already promised the cabinet not to teach Confucianism, so it doesn't matter to teach some law, right?Let the students of the women's academy master the Daliang Law, and when the situation is mature, they can also set up a special position called "judge" as the legal adviser of the magistrate.In this way, women have the de facto right to participate in administration.

In addition to opening a women's academy, she can also use these two years to inspect the Quartet for Yang Yi, that is, to go on tour on behalf of the emperor, which can barely be regarded as a circuit court. While deterring the local people to plead for the people, it also expands the influence of the women's academy. , to build momentum for a series of future actions.

Wei Yunqing did it when he thought of it, and quickly prepared a new textbook.In fact, there are not many theoretical things, and they may not be able to accept too much. The main thing is to infiltrate the theory in the case, so that they can master it.

In addition to discussing matters, going out to teach in the palace, eating and sleeping, Wei Yunqing spent the rest of the time on the preparation of teaching materials. She kept a copy of Liang Lv and the supplementary imperial edict by her hand at all times, in order to make her courses more suitable for this era and increase practicality. sex.

On this day, Lantian suddenly came to report that Concubine Zhuang had come.

As soon as Concubine Zhuang came in, she said straight to the point: "I heard that you will leave the palace for two years in a few months? Take me with you."

"Are you... sure?" Wei Yunqing was a little surprised.

Concubine Zhuang said: "I have already told the emperor, and the emperor agreed."

"If you want, I will naturally raise my hands to agree." Wei Yunqing nodded, and when she saw the textbook at hand out of the corner of her eye, she said, "Since you want to leave the palace with me, naturally you can't just do nothing. Go out with me and listen to the class."

Concubine Zhuang raised her eyebrows: "Listen to the class?"

Wei Yunqing smiled and said: "Well, I have opened a new class, and I plan to teach a group of people first."

Concubine Zhuang glanced at the stack of rice paper in Wei Yunqing's hand, she was not very interested, but she still said: "Got it, I will go tomorrow."

She didn't stay with Wei Yunqing any longer after she finished speaking, she turned around and left.In the previous turmoil, she was able to escape unscathed, but after that she lost interest in Yang Yi and the harem. Now that she heard that Wei Yunqing was leaving the palace, she decided to join in the fun.No matter what you can do outside, it is much more meaningful than wasting time in the harem.

Wei Yunqing named her new course "Law", and started teaching while preparing the lesson.After she took Concubine Zhuang to the class, she gave Concubine Zhuang a task - to teach the content of her class that day to the concubine in the harem.Concubine Zhuang had no objection. After Wei Yunqing took the initiative to contribute her lesson preparation materials, she still disliked Wei Yunqing's ugly handwriting.

In this way, Wei Yunqing taught the law in the women's college, allowing students to learn what is "everyone is equal before the law", what is the "principle of legally prescribed punishment for a crime" and "principle of presumption of innocence".These actually conflict with the current Daliang law. For example, "everyone is equal before the law" is wrong. The so-called emperor breaking the law and the common people are the same crimes. Some crimes can be redeemed with money, and some crimes must be decided by the emperor-the so-called "Eight Discussions" actually gave the emperor the right to bend the law for personal gain, or a privilege clearly stipulated by the law.In class, Wei Yunqing also emphasized the conflict between these principles and the current Daliang Law, but she still taught them these concepts and highlighted them, just because she wanted to plant some small seeds, hoping that they would be able to develop in the future. Bloom huge and stalwart flowers.

After returning to the palace, at Wei Yunqing's request, Concubine Zhuang summoned all the harem concubines and some of the selected palace maids to give lectures. Wei Yunqing listened while handling his own affairs, wasting no time at all.Concubine Zhuang's lecture level is average, and if there are mistakes or omissions in the middle, Wei Yunqing will immediately make corrections and supplements.

The other thing is to ask the Ministry of Households for money.In the past, the household department earned a lot of money by selling officials and nobles. During that time, the household officials always walked lightly, and they still haven't lost much excitement until now.As Wei Yunqing, a great hero who made money for the Ministry of Households, when he went to ask for money, Jin Yan immediately fell into a dilemma.

At the earliest time, Jin Yan made up his mind. When Wei Yunqing wanted to open a second women's academy, he would say that he had no money if he had money, but now the household department has a lot of money, and the money is only because of her idea. Yes, how could he have the nerve to say that he has no money?
And after Wei Yunqing threw out the privilege given by Yang Yi, Jin Yan half-pushed and half-heartedly agreed to her request for money.Well, anyway, the emperor agreed, so he shouldn't worry about it. If you have the time to entangle, you might as well think about how to fill the financial hole in the past and spend the money you got.

As a result, Wei Yunqing successfully obtained funding from the Ministry of Household Affairs, which was used for her tour of Daliang and the opening of an academy.

The students of the women's college changed from time to time during this period.Some left, some because they couldn’t accept Wei Yunqing’s teaching content, some because of family factors, some came, some because of the publicity of their girlfriends and friends at school, and some left and returned.For example, Jin Fuqu.

Five days after Wei Yunqing started the law class, Jin Fuqu returned to her class at the Women's Academy.Wei Yunqing didn't know what purpose Jin Fuqu came back with, and he was very concerned about it, but in the end reason overwhelmed emotion, and what should be taught was to treat her as a stranger.Jin Fuqu seemed to want to say something to Wei Yunqing, and always wanted to come over after class, but Wei Yunqing didn't want to talk to her in private, and ran so fast after class, so Jin Fuqu never got the chance to talk to her alone.After a few times, Jin Fuqu also understood and gave up, but she didn't leave the academy, just like other female students, she integrated into the group.

To this, Wei Yunqing didn't know how to react, after thinking about it, she decided to ignore it, she had too many things to do, and she was too lazy to worry about other things.

The time was spent in a hurry, three months passed in a flash, time entered midsummer, and the girls' academy also held the first more formal exam.

The test paper was written by Wei Yunqing, closed book, [-]-point system, moderate difficulty.In addition to the students of the Women's Academy, those who participated in the exam were those taught by Concubine Zhuang in the harem, but the latter only took the law.Wei Yunqing brought Concubine Zhuang, Lan Tian and others to help mark the papers. For example, if you choose to fill in the blanks, they will correct all the questions. She mainly corrects some subjective questions. It took five days to complete all the test papers and register. good score.

After that, Wei Yunqing called over twenty students from the Women's Academy into the palace, together with the servants who were studying the law in the palace, and held a special tea party behind closed doors.At the meeting, Wei Yunqing first announced the results on the list, and then commended the students who achieved outstanding results in various examinations, issued certificates and prizes - some cloth jewelry, four treasures of the study - after exhorting all the students to continue to work hard, it was the free play stage. If someone is willing to perform some performances, everyone will naturally join in. If there is no one, it will not be a hindrance. They will find someone to talk to and have fun with. Barbecue, snacks, and tea are all available.

When the women's academy first started, these female students were still very reserved.Where there are people, there are fights, just like all the women's tea parties in the past. At first, they were used to forming cliques, competing for beauty, and secretly fighting, but soon they discovered that their empresses were very fond of those petty tricks. Impatient, someone was playing tricks on her, she didn't show any face at all, she said something, and just made people cry.Later, no one dared to play tricks in front of her. In terms of status, no one was older than her, and in terms of face they were much thinner than her. In the academies, all the flags and drums died down, and there was no fight.

The Palace of Yanxi Palace was having a lot of fun, and there were quite a few people looking around outside. Hearing the laughter inside, they were a little envious and a little disdainful.

Wei Yunqing was drinking sweet rice wine when a servant came to report: "Your Majesty, the emperor is here, and he is just outside!"

Wei Yunqing put down his drink and walked outside quickly. Before reaching the door, Yang Yi couldn't hold back and walked in, but the servant beside him shouted: "The emperor is here!"

After a while of silence, everyone who had been having fun put down their things one after another, knelt down in a hurry, and shouted long live three times.

Wei Yunqing was annoyed: "What are you doing here?"

Yang Yi's expression was dull: "Sister Yunqing... I want to come and play too."

Hearing that Wei Yunqing was holding a tea party here, and hearing that the atmosphere was lively, he couldn't bear it any longer and wanted to join in the fun.

Wei Yunqing blocked the door and prevented him from entering: "Get out, get out, we are all female relatives here, why are you here to join in the fun? Didn't they all have a good time when you came here? Or, do you want to choose a few in there? Entering the palace beautifully?"

Yang Yi was so scared that he waved his hands again and again: "No, no, sister Yun Qing, don't get me wrong, I don't think so!"

"Then why don't you leave?" Wei Yunqing said.

Yang Yi glanced at the excitement in Yanxi Palace with nostalgia, and said quietly: "...Okay, I'll go now."

He turned around step by step and turned his head three times to leave. Wei Yunqing looked amused, and ordered Lan Tian beside him before saying, "Wait a minute."

Yang Yi stopped immediately and turned around expectantly.

Wei Yunqing waved to him, and Yang Yi immediately ran over like a puppy wagging his tail. She took a large skewer of barbecue from Lan Tian's hand and handed it over: "Here, it's just baked, take it to taste .”

Although a little disappointed that Wei Yunqing didn't let her stay, but she still thought about him, Yang Yi's eyes sparkled, she nodded repeatedly, and couldn't wait to take it: "You must find me next time you play!"

"Got it, you can go." Wei Yunqing waved his hand.

Yang Yi left with a smirk, and the waiter beside him said: "Your Majesty, my servant can hold it for you..."

Yang Yi stared: "Go away, this is handed to me by Sister Yunqing, do you dare to touch it?"

"Slave, servant don't dare!" The servant backed away in fright and said.

Yang Yi walked straight forward, gnawing on a skewer of grilled chicken while walking, with an expression of enjoyment, as expected of sister Yun Qing handing it to him, it is really delicious!
After sending Yang Yi away, Wei Yunqing turned his head and saw that everyone in Yanxi Palace was still kneeling, boldly looking up quietly, all of them had strange expressions.Although I have heard it before, but seeing it with my own eyes is another matter. The empress is really a god, she actually drove the emperor away like this, and he seemed to be quite happy when he left?

Wei Yunqing coughed and raised his hand: "Everyone, get up quickly and continue. Don't let irrelevant people spoil your interest. Aren't you very good at singing, Lan Tian? Come on, don't be shy, and perform a song for everyone."

The tea party quickly resumed lively, but everyone's mood has already been turned upside down, some are envious, some admire, and there are subtle differences in the way they look at Wei Yunqing - this is their mountain leader, whether it is a former important minister, or In her eyes, the king of a country is nothing more than an ordinary person.
