Duan Daguo lived a clear life, worked hard for the country and the people, and is now 28 years old. He is still a ninth-rank official. Fortunately, he has such a smart and wise son, which makes him grateful.
Duan Yuzhe took a look and saw that it was indeed the case, but...
"Dad, the tuition fee is 60 taels per year. Zhe'er thinks it's better to forget it." Dad's annual salary is only 150 taels. If he goes there, it will cost him 60 taels by himself. He feels very sad in his heart.
High.
Moreover, his mother is still a philanthropic person and would give porridge in front of the house every month. He is doing well now, so it's okay if he doesn't go.
Duan Daguo held his son's shoulders with both hands and looked at him seriously, "This is not something Zhe'er needs to worry about. Dad only wants Zhe'er to enter the palace and study hard so that he can contribute to Yulong in the future and bring more people to the world.
Live a good life.”
After hearing this, the beautiful woman standing in front of the door showed a hint of surprise on her face. She gave birth to Zhe'er when she was 20 years old, which was considered a child at an advanced age, so she naturally hoped that he would achieve something, even if she didn't see him once a year.
I also hope that he can become an upright official who serves the country and the people like his father.
"Yes, Zhe'er, listen to your father and go out and see more. Moreover, my mother also heard that the Queen is a wise and wise woman who cares about the world. Since she can think about the students in the world, she is certainly not an ordinary person.
Strange woman, although there is a golden house in the book, there are so many schools in the world, how can I not go out and experience them?"
"Mother." Xiao Zhengtai looked back at her mother who was smiling lightly. After a long time, she could only nod her head vigorously, "Zhe'er, I will definitely not disappoint my father and mother."
"That's great, dad knows that Zhe'er is the most sensible." Duan Daguo happily picked up his son and spun around excitedly.
The beautiful woman had a smile in her eyes, watching the interaction between the father and son, and her heart was filled with endless happiness.
As soon as the imperial edict was issued, officials from various places had different reactions. Some were excited, and of course some were disdainful. They all thought how could a woman educate her son well?
In particular, some prestigious gentlemen were dissatisfied. The children of officials had all gone to the capital, so they could only teach the children of common people, which would make them lose face.
Come to think of it, no one would dare to go against the current Queen.
Soon, carriages and sedans rushing to the capital from various places were all heading to the same destination.
Thirteen days later, Xia Bingyan was sorting out things about the Royal Academy of Talents that was about to open in the study room of Fengqi Palace. Zhang Bing came to report that the renovation of the study room had been completed and asked her to go and take a look.
Without saying a word, she got up and rushed to the Chancellor's Study Room. As soon as she walked in, she saw a huge plaque across the vermilion square door, which read: Royal Academy of Talents.
"How about it? I wrote it myself. I think I've given you, the Queen, enough face." Nangong Mo also rushed over slowly and saw her staring at the plaque, so he said aloud.
Xia Bingyan glanced sideways at him, she was really not ashamed, "Yes, yes, I'm losing face."
She raised her feet and walked in with Nangong Mo. First there was a rockery park, which she positioned as a place for students to relax. It was relatively spacious. In front of it was the usual corridor, and beyond that were rooms that had been renovated according to the drawings she had drawn.
There are 20 long tables and chairs in each room, and there are 20 classrooms in total. In addition, 20 separate empty rooms have been set up as club places for students. There is also a sports ground for students to enjoy sports, including Cuju,
The racecourse has a cold weapon room and a swimming pool.
She actually wanted to set up tennis halls and basketball halls, but there were venues, just for tennis and basketball, and she couldn't help it. After all, this was a backward ancient time.
"Is this your private school?" After Nangong Mo saw it, everything was so eye-opening to him.
"Well, it's only part of it, but I can't do anything about the rest." He nodded.
"This has already surprised me." He held Xia Bingyan's hand and looked at her with a smile, "I really don't know what is inside the head of a monster like you. I really want to pry it open and take a look."
Her words and deeds always make him elusive, and he can't help but become more obsessed with her.
"I'm afraid of you." Xia Bingyan laughed and pried open her head?
Everything went according to the scheduled schedule. In the early morning of this day, Xia Bingyan got up and went directly to the General's Mansion.
The outside of the General's Mansion looks majestic and domineering, with two stone lions standing in front of the door, grinning, so majestic.
"Old slave, please see the Queen." An old man saw Feng Luan appearing and hurriedly came to greet him.
Liu Xu and Chun Hong helped her get off the sedan, and saw her father standing in front of the door, smiling happily.
"Yan'er, you're back. Come in quickly."
"Dad, there's no need to come out." She stepped forward and took Xia Chuyan's arm, and the father and daughter walked in with a smile.
The remaining four people from Fengqi Palace followed the two of them and walked in. Dozens of casual officers and soldiers stood on both sides in front of the General's Mansion in a heroic manner.
Xia Chuyan is in a good mood today. This is the first time Yan'er has returned to the general's mansion in a clear mind, and she is still the current queen.
Walking into the main hall, the two of them sat at the main seat. After a while, a beautifully dressed woman brought two cups of tea over and handed them to Xia Bingyan. Her eyes were smiling, but when she treated Xia Bingyan, she showed
The emotion of disgust.
Xia Bingyan lowered her eyes and smiled, then raised her head the next moment and said, "Here comes someone."
"Here." Two soldiers on standby outside stepped forward and clasped their fists.
"Drag this woman out and kill her with a cane." The voice was very soft, but it made everyone stunned.
"Yan'er..." Xia Chu said slightly stunned.
"Dad, don't worry about this matter. Even if Yan'er is the queen, she is also her father's daughter. The General's Mansion is Yan'er's natal family. Yan'er must never let such a flattering person appear in the mansion. Pull him out and kill him with a stick.
"The last five words, her voice was cold and her eyes were like sharp knives, causing the whole body of the woman just now to freeze instantly, unable to utter a single word.
"yes."
As soon as the words fell, the woman was pulled out.
The Empress returned to the palace for the first time after her wedding and established her authority in the palace. She secretly watched Lily die with a stick. The tragic scene scared everyone to the point of being terrified. They couldn't believe that this was the former person who bullied her.
The eldest lady.
"Dad, Yan'er doesn't care if Daddy remarries. She can be a widow or a girl from a common people's family, but one thing is very important, that is, she is virtuous and can't have evil thoughts. I hope Daddy won't be offended."
Xia Chuyan took a long time to come back to his senses and looked at his daughter excitedly. He was very happy to be able to say these words. He would never be angry with her, blaming her for anything.
"Don't be stupid. It's been so many years. How can dad still renew his relationship? He's fine alone." He wasn't very concerned about managing the mansion. The old butler had always been in charge of it, so as long as it wasn't something too outrageous,
, he always turned a blind eye.
Xia Bingyan chuckled, "What are you talking about, daddy? As we get older, it's better to have a companion, so that Yan'er can feel at ease."
Even though Xia Chuyan was old, his old face couldn't help but get a little hot when his daughter said this.
"By the way, my daughter is going back home this time to ask her father to be the martial arts instructor of the academy. Dad is getting old, and Yan'er doesn't want his father to continue to go to the border. Over the years, I believe that my father has also trained several outstanding generals.
How about dad being in charge of the capital?" This was the purpose of her trip.
"Dad knows about this matter. It's no longer a secret in Yulong. What does that royal family do?" Xia Chuyan still doesn't quite understand.
After hearing this, she sorted it out in her mind before speaking.
"The Royal Academy of Talents uses my philosophy to cultivate the next generation of outstanding talents, managers, generals, and counselors for Yulong, so that they can develop in an all-round way morally, intellectually, physically, and aesthetically. It abandons the old education and adopts new training concepts to allow them to develop in an all-round way.
You can learn more.”
After finishing speaking, seeing Xia Chuyan's confused eyes, she murmured in frustration and sorted everything out in her mind. There were still too many modern words.
"Forget it, daddy is fine now anyway. He just wants to help my precious daughter." He didn't understand, but his daughter was different from the past. I believe she should know what she was doing.
"Thank you very much, dad." Xia Bingyan smiled easily.
After dinner at the General's Mansion, I chatted with Xia Chuyan for a while, and then returned to the palace as night fell.
During this time, Nangong Mo was very busy, but it seemed that his queen was even busier. She was always busy when he went to Fengqi Palace several times. If he tried to make out with her, he would be pushed away.
Three days later, a "meeting" was taking place in a large room in the college, which Xia Bingyan designated as the "auditorium."
Sitting below are men of different ages. They are the well-known teachers from various places in Yulong whom Xia Bingyan asked Zhu Li to invite for her.
"Everyone, you may not understand the purpose of establishing the Royal Academy of Talents this time. It is to cultivate more talented people so that their futures can be broader, so that businessmen with strong financial resources can guard the borders.
Generals can be honest officials or respected scholars. They are like seedlings waiting to develop, and you gentlemen are the hard-working irrigators. Their future achievements are inseparable from your loving care.
Professor, of course, there are only 10 places needed for the office, and they will be selected from among you. I hope you will not disappoint me."
"The common people obey the decree." Everyone responded with cupped hands.
In the following time, she summoned more than 50 gentlemen who came individually, and finally settled on 10 people.
There was not much time until school started, but Xia Bingyan still had a knot in her heart. Unexpectedly, it would be reversed in the afternoon.
"I'm here to see the Queen. News has come from Xiaode Gate that a man named Qiu Yingming wants to see the Queen." Zhang Bing knelt down and replied.
"Qiu Yingming? Who is he?"
"I only know that Qiu Yingming is an imperial merchant, but I don't know anything else."
Huang Shang? You should be looking for the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I don’t know what you are looking for.
