long live the queen

Chapter 113

The fact that Ji Bai was escorted back to the capital quickly became the talk of the people in the streets and alleys in their spare time. The people always applaud the punishment of corrupt officials, so they feel more awe of the empress who is in charge. .

Wei Yunqing had no interest in those things, but because of this incident, the construction of the girls' academy was greatly accelerated.Site selection and logistics are still minor issues. Where can rich people not find servants?The only problem is the acceptance of the women's college by the local people and how many people will come to the class.

After realizing that his reputation is very beneficial to the establishment of the Women's Academy, Wei Yunqing asked someone to make up a story to vigorously promote the role played by the students of the Girls' Academy in this incident.

The effect of the publicity was good. When the women's academy was completed, there were as many as a hundred students who came to sign up, and some of them came from other places, which really made Wei Yunqing very happy.This also includes the daughters of many local officials.After Wei Yunqing dealt with Ji Bai, the commander of the capital, all the officials in Mianyang really broke out in a cold sweat. They thought that the person in charge, Xing Shoudao, was just a puppet, and the real big boss turned out to be here!
Sending his daughter, granddaughter, and relatives' daughters to the academy is a kind of support and a statement, and Wei Yunqing is also happy to see it.It doesn't matter if they really support her or not, as long as they don't mess with her.

This second academy is much more convenient to operate because of the previous experience of going to Beijing Women's Academy.The academy mainly taught two courses, one mathematics and one law. Wei Yunqing did not take part in the battle in person, but asked the 20 people she taught to lead the class respectively, and she immediately chose to sit in.These 20 people are mainly court ladies and eunuchs, and there are only two low-ranking concubines. She has concentrated on training teaching skills for these people before, because it is still a basic education, and the teaching materials are becoming more and more perfect after she revises them over and over again, so It is not easy to be a good teacher, but it is not so difficult to instill knowledge into these female students.

Wei Yunqing's time is limited, and it is impossible to stay here for too long. We must bring out some teachers as soon as possible. The level of the teachers brought out in a hurry will not be very good, but for this era, there is such a women's academy that is really teaching. , the symbolic motivational significance is far greater than the actual significance.She never thought that she could change the status of a woman in her lifetime. It was simply unrealistic. As she said in the past, all she can do now is to plant a seed and quietly wait for it to take root and germinate.

Because in Mianyang Women's College, he found a few good seedlings who are willing to take on future teaching tasks and have good comprehension and logical thinking skills, Wei Yunqing often gives them small lessons outside of class to help them reach the minimum teaching level as soon as possible.It was impossible for these women to see such a high-ranking woman as Wei Yunqing in their entire lives, and she had a legendary halo, so when they learned that they were selected, they were so happy that they wanted to publicize it. How could they not be happy?During the period of opening Xiaozao, they showed their skills and their knowledge level improved by leaps and bounds, which made Wei Yunqing very pleased.

Two months later, Wei Yunqing spent three days inspecting the knowledge and teaching level of the few people she selected. After she was almost satisfied, she selected one of them to be the head of the Mianyang Women's Academy, and transferred the teaching of the academy to others. The task was given to these women—she herself is the honorary head of Mianyang Women's Academy.Her name must always be hung up, so as to support this women's academy.

There is no need to pay tuition fees to study in women's colleges, and all college expenses are allocated by the Ministry of Households.However, at present, only women from rich families or officials' families come to study in women's colleges. As expected, women from poor families have to work hard for their livelihood, so how can they have time to study?But Wei Yunqing is not in a hurry, he can't become a big fat man by eating in one sitting, and he has to take his time in everything he does. There will inevitably be various problems in the initial stage, and they will be solved slowly later.When women's colleges became the only shortcut for women to improve their status as consultants, she believed that even among poor families, some had long-term vision and aspirations.And in order not to let the threshold of legal consultants be too low to affect the overall quality, she has already planned that this women's academy will have strict admissions and strict exits in the future.Those who have not obtained a graduation certificate from a women's college are not allowed to serve as legal advisers, and to obtain a graduation certificate, they must pass a strict examination.Of course, these things are still early, and she always has to do a good job of the promotion in front of her step by step.

It was midsummer when Wei Yunqing left Shangjing, and when he was in Mianyang, Yang Yi's birthday came, and the so-called Longevity Festival was celebrated everywhere.Many officials wanted to go to Beijing to celebrate the emperor's birthday in person, but Wei Yunqing didn't go back because he thought it was a waste of time.She brought him some special products of Mianyang for people to take back to Shangjing, and wrote a letter at his request, wishing him a happy birthday.

The route Wei Yunqing chose was to go north first, then south.Daliang is in the northern hemisphere, and the north is generally colder than the south. It is midsummer now, so she naturally wants to go north, but it gets cold halfway, so she can go south to be slightly warmer.

Daliang is also considered to have a vast land and abundant resources. During the process of opening a women's academy and traveling on behalf of the emperor, Wei Yunqing would occasionally relax in his free time and visit famous mountains and rivers.In the end, she didn't expect that during this visit, she would find several reclusive figures from other schools of thought.But these people are all men, and they heard that she runs a girls' school, so they don't want to go out.Wei Yunqing had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, asking them to contribute some books and give them some pointers.

It is best to carry forward your own school of thought, and basically these hermits will not refuse.Wei Yunqing threw all her own people to read, and then asked these hermits to judge which ones were talented, and stayed to continue learning, asking them to teach them a lot.Because the people Wei Yunqing brings are all from the palace, it is not good to stay out alone for too long, and she is rushing to the next province to open an academy, so there will always be some soldiers guarding the palace people who want to stay to study, She led the large troops away first.After three to five months, let them catch up.The time is too short, I guess I can only learn a little superficially, but with the book, I will study it slowly by myself when the time comes.

Summer goes, autumn comes, and winter comes again.

Wei Yunqing didn't plan to go back to Beijing during the Chinese New Year, which was a pain for the accompanying officials.The accompanying palace people were fine, they couldn't reunite with their families during the New Year's Eve in the past, and now it's the same when they are outside, they are used to it.

Because the Chinese New Year was approaching, Xing Shoudao raised this matter on behalf of the accompanying officials, and Wei Yunqing was also very embarrassed.Chinese New Year means little to her, but it is different to these officials. She can't deprive them of their right to reunite with their families.However, this time it can be regarded as a business trip, and those Beijing officials who are sent to various places in Daliang on business may not be able to return to Beijing for the New Year every year. Xing Shoudao thought that she was easy to talk, so he specifically mentioned this matter.

After thinking about it, Wei Yunqing discussed with Xing Shoudao, and simply divided the accompanying officials into two groups, one group will go back for Chinese New Year this year, and the other group will go back for Chinese New Year next year.She was going to stay outside for two full years, and it was quite sincere to let everyone go home in turn.Xing Shoudao thought about it for a while, and then accepted the proposal.

On the first New Year's Eve outside, Wei Yunqing spent it in Shuofang Province, and it was really lively with the people who stayed behind.Everyone had a good time and had more fun.

The accompanying officials who returned to Beijing after the year came back in a hurry, Wei Yunqing did not wait for them, and had already started the construction of the next round of women's academy.

This year, Song Dynasty invaded the frontier again, and Yan Rusong was transferred to guard the border.Because Yan Rusong has been heavily used by Yang Yida for more than a year, and the troops are furious, the quality of Daliang sergeants has been greatly improved. Now that there is money and food, the entire Daliang army has a new look. Da Song wants to mow the Daliang army just like in the past Annihilation is absolutely impossible.And this time the Great Song Army seemed to be just probing, and didn't fight very seriously, so the atmosphere of panic about the war in Daliang was not strong-anyway, General Yan was guarding the front line, so what are you afraid of?
Hearing the news of Yan Rusong again, Wei Yunqing's heart is not as sad as before, time really heals everything.She also heard that this time Yan Rusong was stationed at the frontier and brought his wife with him, it seemed that it was Jin Fuqu's own request.The frontier was bitterly cold, and when she thought of that delicate young lady, her eyes would turn red every word she said, and she felt that her heart was very complicated.Such a woman who is not afraid of hard work is indeed worthy of Yan Rusong, they should be an enviable couple.

In the second year's New Year, Wei Yunqing spent it outside as usual. Compared with the previous year, he was still farther away from Shanghai.Her communication with Yang Yi has not been interrupted. Judging from the content and tone of the letter, she found that Yang Yi seems to have grown up again, but the little emperor who smugly asked her to go back as soon as possible does not seem to have changed at all.

In the correspondence with Yang Yi years later, he started the countdown.There is only half a year left in the agreed two years, and it can be seen from his letter that he is simply counting on his fingers.It's just that Wei Yunqing's process of opening a women's academy was not smooth. She estimated that it would not be completed within half a year, so she had to tell Yang Yi to extend the time.

Yang Yi naturally refused, and half a year passed quietly in the tug-of-war of letters between the two of them.Relying on the fact that he would not accept the orders of the generals abroad, Wei Yunqing stayed outside for another five months, and opened the women's academies in each province before leaving for Beijing.

As the year approached, Wei Yunqing and his party returned to the outskirts of Shangjing.

Before entering the city, a fast horse rushed out of the city, it was Yang Yi's messenger, and delivered a letter from him.Wei Yunqing was a little curious, took it apart and took a look, and said in one sentence: What are you doing back here!
Wei Yunqing: "..."

From Yang Yi's words, she could completely imagine his appearance of becoming angry from embarrassment. In the tug-of-war of letters between the two of them in the past six months, Yang Yi's tone was probably the same.It was indeed her fault for extending the time for half a year. She felt a little guilty and folded the letter paper. Just as she was about to say something to the messenger, another fast horse came, and Yang Yi's second letter arrived.

She was a little speechless, opened it silently and looked at it, and said again: I will wait for you in the palace!
She couldn't help laughing, said nothing, and ordered the carriage to speed up.To be honest, she hasn't seen her for two and a half years, and she is also a little curious about how far Yang Yi, who is almost 21 years old, has grown.

The team entered the city, and not long after they left, there was a team of cars speeding up in front of them, among them was the emperor's driver.

After Yang Yi sent two letters in a row, he couldn't wait to run out of the palace?

Wei Yunqing couldn't laugh or cry immediately.
