After being reborn, he crossed with His Majesty

Chapter 187

The queen mother asked the question back, but she didn't say it clearly, and Shuxian and Shuhui didn't dare to speak too bluntly.

Therefore, in the Fushou Palace, it was like guessing a riddle. In the end, it was Shuhui who couldn't hold back and took the initiative to express her thoughts.

As for the major matters of marriage, she and Shuxian certainly wanted to be the ones to decide.

"Since that's the case, I'll ask the nanny to send those things to you later, but after you look at it, it's up to us mother and daughter to discuss it in the end."

After thinking about it, the queen mother spoke in a low tone. The two princesses probably did not expect that the queen mother would agree so readily.

From the looks of it, the emperor's wife's visit was not in vain.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." The two sisters got up and saluted the Queen Mother. Seeing their happy appearance, the Queen Mother frowned first, and then smiled on her face.

As a mother, she naturally hopes that her children will be happy.

After the two princesses left, the queen mother leaned back on the soft cushion, "I'll listen to you, let their young people go about their business, and send a message to Fengming Palace."

"The Empress Dowager is wise." The mother saluted and responded, and went to Fengming Palace in person.

After the queen mother was settled, two more princesses were willing to join. Soon, Xie Zhao released the news of the establishment of a girls' school according to the plan.

Just hearing some stories before caused a lot of opposition, but now that the news has spread from the palace, I also know that those who jump will jump even more.

Now that His Majesty is not in Beijing, some courtiers have asked for an order to see the Empress.

"Your Majesty, you are pregnant, so you don't need to pay any attention to them." Following Xie Zhao, Xiao Yun was a little worried.

"It's okay, this matter will have to be dealt with sooner or later. Isn't this a wave of accumulation? We just met together."

At first, there were only one or two people who asked to see them, Xie Zhao didn't see them, and after saving for a while, she gathered a group, and she planned to meet them together.

In the palace, the courtiers were waiting for the Queen's arrival, and they had to say a few words to each other.

When they were outside the palace, they had met and said some nasty things, but now that they entered the palace, they restrained themselves a lot.

Following the singing of the palace people, Xie Zhao entered the hall and sat on the head seat. After everyone saluted, she gave orders with a smile.

"Empress, the old minister heard that you are going to open a women's school in Beijing, which is inappropriate."

Immediately after getting up, some ministers saluted Xie Zhao, expressing their dissatisfaction, nothing more than saying that a woman's lack of talent is virtue.

"That's all?" After hearing him finish speaking, Xie Zhao nodded, and the old official was taken aback, he had indeed finished speaking.

"Then the next one." Seeing that he had nothing to say, Xie Zhao waved his hand, and the old official couldn't help but hesitated. He didn't dare to say anything else, so he stepped aside.

Another minister came forward and expressed his thoughts.

All in all, none of the ministers gathered by Xie Zhao agreed to open a women's college, no matter whether they were old or young, they all felt that being a woman should be a duty.

What choice, what decides, should not exist. They should contribute and sacrifice unconditionally for the family when they were born.

"It's all over?" From the beginning to the end, Xie Zhao had a smile on his face. The ministers looked at me and I looked at you, but they couldn't figure out what the queen was thinking.

"Now that we've finished talking, it's my turn." Still with a smile on his face, Xie Zhao said slowly, "Your Majesty went out and took some courtiers with him, but most of them are in the capital. When you were talking just now, , I took a closer look, and I have some understanding of your families and backgrounds."

"No wonder you don't have a first-class family among you, all of you are not in the top class, and the highest in the family is only a third-rank official, and you got up through age."

"What about women? Were all of you here born of your father? It's useless to say that all of you are women. If that's the case, wouldn't it be better for you to live on your own?"

"When you exchange the women in your family for your so-called future, why don't you say that women are useless?"

"My palace is just setting up a women's school so that women can read and write, and I didn't say that women can pass the big exam to change their destiny just like you, so you are so anxious. If the big exam is opened, what will happen? Are all the women crushed to death?"

"Why didn't the ancestors have such a rule? I would like to ask you, which rule did the ancestors say that women are absolutely not allowed to read and write, and women should be kept at home and sent out to benefit the family when they are old?"

"In the previous dynasty, there were virtuous queens who were praised by the world and admired by all people. Even the founding emperor of this dynasty was raised by his mother alone. Tell me, how are women worse than men?"

"The strength is not strong enough, there are indeed, but there are not no women with strong strength. If the kung fu is not good enough, then you can send someone to come forward. Even if I am pregnant, it will be no harm to ask him to do a few tricks!"

"What else do you want to say?" Leaning back on the chair, Xie Zhao looked at the red-faced adults below as if you would continue and I would accompany you.

"Empress, that's not what you said, this..."

"What did you say? If you want to bring out some ancestor's rules, you don't have to come here. I just said that there is no rule that stipulates what women must do. Similarly, there is nothing that men must do."

"It is a very good thing for me to establish a women's school so that women can study. You all know that reading is sensible, but if you say that a family has a good wife and everything is peaceful, what's wrong with a women's school?"

"Girls have read books and become more sensible. Isn't that a good thing? Or are you afraid that girls will be more sensible and will not be able to deceive you in the future?"

What she said made all the adults look at each other in blank dismay, speechless for a while.

This is really difficult to answer. If you say yes, it's too embarrassing. If you say no... Then why don't you agree?
"If there is no better way to refute this palace, then retreat. In the final analysis, the adults objected because they only looked at the present."

"I can also tell you adults clearly that even if you open a girls' school, some things will not happen overnight, but in the long run, how can you be sure that this is not something that will benefit future generations?"

-

"Sister Shen, don't walk around, you'll feel dizzy." It's not a secret in the palace that the queen wants to meet the officials.

In fact, many concubines in the harem were very moved when they knew that the empress had established a girls' school, and that Shen Chongyi and others were helping the empress with this matter.

They also want to get involved and add a little fun and hope to the boring daily life.

Perhaps, their fate is just like this and cannot be changed, but at least, after a long time, perhaps the fate of the women can really be changed.

If so, even if they become stepping stones, they are willing.
