Chapter nine hundred and sixty-two aspirations (2)
Gu Shanchang's mood was equally agitated: "When I was young, women were confined to the inner house and could not leave the house easily. If we wanted to study, we could only invite the master into the house."
"It is still possible for wealthy ladies to study. Daughters from ordinary people's families have no chance to study and learn to read."
"Yu Lianniang was extremely intelligent and arrogant. She disguised herself as a man and entered Songzhu Academy as her elder brother. Holding her breath, she wanted to be better than all the teenagers in the world."
"You also know what happened later. As Yu Lianniang, she became the best student in Songzhu Academy and became famous in the capital. But she also met her sweetheart..."
Recalling the past, Gu Shanchang's voice was filled with a hint of sadness: "Yu Lianchi can only die so that Yu Lianniang can marry into the Heavenly Family as the Crown Princess."
"With the status of the Crown Princess, she successfully opened the Lotus Pond Academy. Those famous families, in order to get close to the Crown Princess, were willing to send their best and outstanding daughters to the academy. I vowed not to marry for the rest of my life, and will devote all my time and effort to the academy.
All bets are placed on Lotus Pond Academy."
"In just a few years, Lianchi Academy has become famous. She became a queen and still went to the academy to teach every month, supporting the academy with her own private house."
"It has become a common practice for women in the capital to study. Girls in the boudoir can also go into the inner house and go to the academy to study with their classmates. All the states and counties in Daqi have also followed suit."
"Although they cannot take the imperial examinations and become officials like men, women who have read poetry and books are sensible, intelligent and open-minded. After these women get married and have children, they will influence their children with their own efforts."
"Such changes are slow but far-reaching. They gradually improve women's status."
"Ten or twenty years is not enough, then thirty or fifty years. When we are old, we still have disciples. The disciples will teach their own disciples. One day, women in the world will be like men, and women will no longer be men.
vassal."
"This is also my lifelong ambition, Gu Xian."
Speaking of this, Gu Shanchang's voice rose involuntarily, his eyes shone brighter than pearls, and his slightly haggard and sick face also glowed with an unprecedented and compelling look.
"Yu Lianniang was blinded by power and forgot her original intention. She and I gradually drifted apart until we parted ways. I, Gu Xianzhi, have never forgotten my original intention."
"Mingxi, accepting you as my disciple is the wisest decision I have ever made in my life."
"You did more and better than I expected."
"You want to make A Luo the Crown Princess and the Empress of Da Qi in the future... Although this idea is a bit shocking, it is excellent. Only when the change starts with the royal family will it affect the entire Da Qi faster and more profoundly. With that,
Empress, there will be female officials in the future. The status of women will be greatly improved."
"Maybe one day, everything I have ever dreamed of will come true... It would be great."
Gu Shanchang was excited and impassioned, and when he finished speaking, he was actually at a loss for words.
Xie Mingxi was also a little excited, and the light in her eyes flashed: "Being able to worship the mountain leader as my teacher is the greatest luck in my life."
She has never been a selfish person. Gu Shanchang, who has a noble and upright character and is full of great ambitions, has a profound influence on her. The master's wholehearted care and love for her has made up for the lack of family and maternal love in her.
Without Master, there would be no Xie Mingxi today.
Gu Shanchang's eyes were filled with water, and he put his arms around Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi was like a child, nestling in her master's arms. The corners of her eyes were a little moist.
…
Hugging each other in silence.
Xie Mingxi was never one to show off her emotions and quickly calmed down.
On the other hand, Gu Shanchang was so emotional that he burst into tears before he slowly calmed down.
Xie Mingxi wiped away Gu Shanchang's tears, pretending to smile briskly and said: "Master, please wipe your tears quickly, take a good rest, and get better soon. A'luo will have to rely on master's careful guidance in the future!"
Gu Shanchang calmed down and responded with a smile: "Of course."
After his emotions calmed down, Gu Shanchang suddenly thought of another very important thing, and he couldn't laugh anymore: "Mingxi, you and the emperor would rather observe mourning for three years in order to delay time and wait for A Luo to grow up...
Could it be that you don’t plan to get pregnant again? Or are you no longer able to be pregnant?”
It has to be said that Chief Gu Shan was extremely perceptive and immediately thought of the real crux of the matter.
Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong would rather keep their filial piety than tell the world about the evil deeds Empress Dowager Yu had done, so they naturally had ulterior motives.
Xie Mingxi knew that she couldn't hide it, and had no intention of hiding it any longer, so she whispered: "Yes. When A'luo was less than one year old, Sheng Hong decided not to impregnate me anymore. He took a secret medicine that made men infertile.
"
"I never told anyone about this."
"Unexpectedly, there were many changes in the palace. Sheng Hong had no ambitions for the throne, but he had to sit on the throne. He had already planned to make A Luo the crown princess."
"Empress Dowager Yu didn't know what was going on, and she set up a conspiracy to kidnap Master. She also threatened Master's safety and made me take the secret medicine in the palace. I pretended to be sad and angry in front of her, but in fact I didn't do it at all.
Keep this in mind."
Gu Shanchang's whole body was shaken, and he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Did she force you to take the medicine for infertility?"
Xie Mingxi smiled and reassured: "It was impossible for me to get pregnant again. It doesn't make any difference whether I take the medicine or not."
Chief Gu Shan was furious: "How can such overbearing and powerful drugs not damage the body? Besides, whether you want to live or not is one thing, being forced to take the medicine is another."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known about this earlier, I would have risked my life and went to Yu Lianniang myself to settle the account."
Gu Shanchang was so angry that his whole body trembled slightly, and the fire in his eyes almost ignited.
Xie Mingxi sighed helplessly: "Look, if I tell you now, you are so angry. If I told you that day, wouldn't you be going to fight Queen Mother Yu to the death?"
"She has the status of the Queen Mother to rely on. There are many people in the palace and there are helping hands outside the palace. How could I put Master in danger?"
"I deliberately hid this matter. I just didn't want Master to be angry and hurt because of this matter."
"Isn't it better to endure the suffocation for a while, then slowly make arrangements and take care of her calmly? Now, she is lying in the mourning hall and will be buried in a few days. What else can master be angry about?"
Yes, there is really nothing to be angry about with a dead person.
However, she was still furious!
Gu Shanchang took a deep breath, and then took another deep breath. He was still furious!
Gu Shanchang suddenly got off the bed: "It's not worth feeling sad for such ruthless and ruthless people. From now on, my illness will be completely cured."
