Fan Chunyi, who received the divorce letter: "..."
Fan Ziyan was startled when he saw his sister's dazed look, and said quickly: "Sister, you won't be reluctant to leave the Feng family, right? Who are the Feng families? You are now the royal painter of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Once the study tour is over, you will
Go to the Ming Research Institute to take up a post at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. My dear predecessor, please don’t be confused..."
She also persuaded Fan Chunyi that if she was worried about her mother having a hard time, she should stay in the capital and not go back.
The Daming Research Institute and the Academy of Agricultural Sciences provide accommodation, with all the food, clothing, and housing provided, and pensions are also included. She will have no problem staying here for the rest of her life.
And she is not staying here alone. Isn't Liao Yunmei from the Liao family also there? She is also doing agricultural research.
They met before and had a pleasant chat.
Fan Ziyan truly felt that it was much better for her sister to stay at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences than to return to the Feng family.
Fan Chunyi came back to her senses, somewhat dumbfounded.
She shook her head gently: "I'm not reluctant, I just... I didn't expect that the divorce letter could be obtained so easily. I thought... grandpa would disagree."
"Why don't you care?" As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Ziyan reacted and said, "Sister, are you afraid that grandpa will think that you are divorced and lose the face of the Fan family? No, grandpa wants it more than face.
Sister can live a good life, otherwise grandpa will not agree to add your name."
Only then did Fan Ziyan tell Fan Chunyi that in fact this list was not like this from the beginning.
At the beginning, no one thought that the "recruitment order" for Princess Chongqin also included women, and only the names of men were submitted.
Liao Yunmei of the Liao family was still unconvinced, so she personally went to Princess Chong to recommend herself, and was successfully recommended by her.
It was only then that everyone realized - it turns out that women can also sign up.
Another girl from the Liao family, Liao Yunxue, was not convinced and also wanted to sign up...
In addition, Fan Ziyan misses Fan Chunyi, and the second supplementary list has been released.
Fan Chunyi was stunned.
"The second copy was full of women's names. Grandpa used it to find Princess Chong and that's how we got the current list of farmers."
Although not all the girls who signed up had outstanding performances during the study tour, like Liao Yunmei and Fan Chunyi, they became a blockbuster, but their appearance simply created a precedent for "equal treatment of men and women."
At Chongqin Princess Gu Qingling's place, there are no restrictions on men and women. You can study while traveling and take exams at the same time.
Those who passed in advance, such as Liao Yunmei and Fan Chunyi, mentioned the "invitation letter" from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences of the Daming Research Institute in advance, hoping that they would work there after their study tour.
There are also ordinary people like Liao Yunxue who need to take the "agricultural science examination" after the study tour, and only those who pass can be assigned a job.
If you don't cooperate, you will be sent to an agricultural college to study in the future, and you won't be able to work until you get your diploma.
Liao Yunxue: "..."
Depend on!
Am I really better than the woman Liao Yunmei?
But don’t be complacent, Liao Yunmei. After the study tour is over, I will definitely pass the “Agricultural Science Examination.”
At this time, Liao Yunxue still did not believe that she could not pass the exam after studying abroad.
Of course, this is something for later.
Now Gu Qingling is happy that before the study tour is over, two girls have won everyone's praise for their outstanding performance.
It seems that people who farm don't have that much in their minds and are relatively simple. They don't pay attention to Liao Yunmei and Fan Chunyi as girls. They only see their abilities and instinctively want to win "talents" for their department.
Liao Yunmei agreed to go to the Daming Research Institute and the Academy of Agricultural Sciences because they promised to give her fields. They also said that Prince Chong’s Mansion was in the capital, and Princess Chong must be in the capital most of the time.
If Princess Chong has any experimental varieties, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences will get them first.
——Try it early, understand?
——If you want to try something new, you have to come to us.
Gu Qingling: "..."
Unexpectedly, I also became a celebrity.
But when I think about it carefully, I have to admit that, except for some high-quality varieties with relatively large restrictions on the carrying area, it is indeed easier to be selected by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, which also belongs to the capital, because of its location in the capital.
"These two are so powerful?!" Li Wenchong was very surprised when he saw two women on the first list of the Academy of Sciences of the Ming Dynasty.
He knew that there were girls in the group of people recruited by Gu Qingling, but he thought it was one of the methods she used to "buy off" farmers. Unexpectedly, there were two powerful people among them?!
Can women also farm?
"Why, are you looking down on women? There are many talented and capable women in this world, but everyone refuses to give women a chance and insists on hiding them in the backyard without leaving the door. I don't understand.
, forget about others thinking so, why does your imperial brother think so too?"
"What does this have to do with my imperial brother? This is decided by the people of the world, not my imperial brother."
"Because he is the emperor, the only person in the world who can make rules and change them." Gu Qingling looked at Li Wenchong and said seriously, "Think about it, for those in power, the most important thing is whether a person can be used.
Is it divided into men and women, or is it divided into whether the person can do the job, whether he has talent, and whether he can be used?"
"Of course it's the latter."
"That's it. In this case, if you imagine a family, the world is composed of men and women, and there are so many useful people among the men, plus women... Do you think your emperor brother will still be able to do it in the future?
Are you missing someone?"
Li Wenchong was speechless for a moment, feeling that her logic was quite reasonable.
but……
But will the world be willing to give women this opportunity?
The rule passed down from our ancestors is that men are the master of the house and women are the master of the house.
"Well... you are quite right, but the premise is... is this bragging the world's disapproval? If my brother really wants to do this, I'm afraid he will offend a lot of people."
"Then if there is this opportunity, without having to take too many risks, would your imperial brother be willing?"
"This...I have to ask my royal brother."
"We'll talk about it later. Please help me. I beg your imperial brother, let him turn a blind eye first. As long as the matter doesn't get serious, just pretend that he didn't see it..."
Li Wenchong looked wary: "What do you want to do?"
What she has done is already big enough. If she still wants to do something about it, don't make it too overwhelming.
Even if his brother is the emperor, not everything can be done.
Gu Qingling smiled and said: "Don't worry, the sky won't fall. Besides, when have you ever seen me impulsive? I don't ask women to read the Four Books and Five Classics and take part in the imperial examination... I am not cultivating 'female stewards', help
I farm the land and take care of the people, right?"
Li Wenchong: "..."
Are you sure this is what we just talked about?
His memory is not that bad.
At this time, he didn't know that it was definitely not that Gu Qingling didn't want women to participate in the imperial examinations and become officials, but...
But she hasn't found the opportunity yet.
Don't let her find her. Once she finds her, she will absolutely "run rampage" and get the job done.
Because Gu Qingling knew that this kind of thing could only be broken through in one fell swoop. Otherwise, when the man came back the second time, he was prepared and it would be difficult for him to break through.
She will not challenge a man's fragile nerves until she is absolutely sure.
Let's not be scientific first, start from other places, first "equal pay for equal work", first let parents taste the sweetness of "equal treatment of sons and daughters", and can't help but fight for their girls...
When they one day get used to the fact that both their sons and daughters should receive "equal pay for equal work" and feel that this is the best way to protect their own interests, then...
It is not too late for women to take part in the imperial examination and become officials.
