Yu Youniang only discovered at the age of five that her mother was actually the true daughter of the Yong'an Marquis Estate, who had been separated from them for over twenty years.
The da...
Chapter 432 Women's School
Marquis Chengyi didn't care what other officials thought of him.
As a marquis, he doesn't need to care what these people think. He can do whatever he wants.
Yu Youning and Xiao Muyu followed Chengyi Hou and quickly found where they should stand.
Marquis Chengyi whispered a few more instructions before returning to his seat.
Not long after, the hall suddenly became quiet.
Some people were talking in low voices just now, but now they all stand straight and don’t say a word.
Even though this was the first time Yu Youning and Xiao Muyu attended a grand court meeting, they knew that the emperor was coming.
Sure enough, after a while, the emperor and Chu Huaixu came together.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne, and Chu Huaixu stood in front of him on the left.
The left is respected in Dayong.
The position where Chu Huaixu stood showed that among all the people present, his position was the most respected except for the emperor.
After everyone had paid their respects, the emperor made an announcement without any warning.
"From today on, the Crown Prince will govern the country. You must assist him wholeheartedly!"
Hearing this, many people looked shocked.
Although Chu Huaixu was the first crown prince of this dynasty, there were many crown princes in history.
It is not uncommon for the crown prince to serve as regent.
However, in most cases, the emperor was ill and unable to handle state affairs, so he let the prince govern and the ministers assist him.
Or maybe the emperor was traveling and the prince stayed behind to supervise the country.
But now, the emperor is in his prime, working hard to govern the country, and has no plans to travel. Why did he suddenly let the prince govern the country?
Although there are some puzzles in their hearts, no one is stupid enough to ask now.
Just from the emperor's tone just now, we can tell that he was announcing this matter, not discussing it with them.
If he were to ask in person, he would not only offend the emperor, but also the prince. From then on, he would no longer have a place in the court.
No one would do such a stupid thing.
Prime Minister Wen stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. We will definitely assist the Crown Prince well!"
With Prime Minister Wen taking the lead, others followed suit and expressed their opinions.
Yu Youning and Xiao Muyu were inconspicuous among the ministers, and they also expressed their opinions.
Originally, everyone thought that Yu Youning and Xiao Muyu would be the center of discussion and the focus of everyone at today's morning court session.
But now it seems that they were overthinking it!
The emperor always caught them off guard and shocked them again and again.
The morning court passed just like that.
For Yu Youning and Xiao Muyu, this morning court was really unremarkable.
Except before and after the emperor came, no one ever looked at them again.
The two of them seemed to be here to watch the fun.
After the court session, everyone left in groups of three or four, and Yu Youning and Xiao Muyu also prepared to leave together.
At this moment, Eunuch Wang came hurriedly, stopped the two men, and invited them to the imperial study.
In the imperial study.
The emperor, the crown prince, Prime Minister Wen, Marshal Wen, and even Marquis Chengyi and Prince Nannan were all present.
Looking at everyone, Yu Youning felt a little strange and didn't understand what the emperor was going to do.
But the emperor just said a few words asking them to assist Chu Huaixu well and then let them leave.
After leaving the imperial study, Yu Youning and Chu Huaixu naturally walked together.
Marshal Wen and others saw it, but said nothing. They just pretended not to see it and walked out of the palace.
Yu Youning and Chu Huaixu walked side by side, talking in low voices.
"What does the emperor mean by this?" Yu Youning asked Chu Huaixu in a low voice, "Why does it seem a little strange?"
"My father has asked me to be the regent. After a few years of experience, he wants to pass the throne to me."
Chu Huaixu's voice was calm, as if he was talking about something extremely ordinary.
Yu Youning was a little surprised when he heard this, but he quickly calmed down.
Although it's a little early, it's not surprising.
If the emperor doesn't pass the throne to Chu Huaixu, who else can he pass it to?
"Then you have to behave well in the next few years!"
Yu Youning said this and patted Chu Huaixu on the shoulder.
Chu Huaixu stopped and looked at Yu Youning, "Aning, in a few years, if I ascend the throne successfully, we will get married. Are you willing?"
"Wedding?"
Yu Youning tilted his head, but did not resist.
Isn't this the right thing to do?
"Then... after the wedding, can I still do what I want? Can I still leave the palace?"
If she couldn't do anything after the wedding and could only stay in the palace, she would have to think about it.
"able!"
Chu Huaixu gave his answer immediately without any hesitation, his tone very firm.
"After we get married, you can still do whatever you want. Leave the palace whenever you want! No status or rules will restrict you. Neither will I."
With Chu Huaixu's words, the last bit of worry in Su Qinghe's heart disappeared.
"That's all! You can make the arrangements when the time comes!"
Yu Youning's voice became much more cheerful.
"But now, I'm going to the big hospital!"
When he said this, Yu Youning's expression became excited.
Chu Huaixu knew what Yu Youning was thinking and did not try to stop her. "Okay, go ahead! They are all your acquaintances in the Imperial Hospital, so no one will make things difficult for you. Just go for it!"
What he didn't tell Yu Youning was that he had already met everyone in the Imperial Hospital in advance.
No matter who it is, if they dare to make things difficult for Yu Youning or delay the progress of things, he will make that person disappear from this world completely!
...
When Yu Youning arrived at the Imperial Hospital, someone immediately came forward and took her to her room.
The house was decorated very comfortably, and it was obvious that it was designed according to her preferences.
Just by looking at the outfit, Yu Youning knew that this must be Chu Huaixu's masterpiece.
Apart from him, no one else in the Imperial Hospital knows her preferences so well!
Yu Youning was very satisfied. After walking around the room, he took out what he had written and went to find the court clerk.
Because of Yu Youning's arrival, the entire Imperial Hospital became busy.
But no one finds it troublesome.
The emperor has already given the order, and they must act according to the emperor's order.
Things are already unstoppable. Of course, it will be more beneficial for them if they cooperate well and strive to make meritorious contributions.
Because we had experience in running a medical school, things went very smoothly this time.
There were basically no obstacles.
And the range of students admitted is wider.
There are more people.
Two months later.
The school sponsored by the Imperial Medical Service has already begun formal classes.
Because there were too many students and there was no suitable place in the capital, the emperor directly gave Yu Youning an imperial farm.
The scenery of this imperial farm is average, but it is large enough, has enough houses, and the land is very fertile, making it very suitable for growing herbs.
There are advantages, and of course there are disadvantages.
Because it is far from the capital and he is sometimes very busy, Yu Youning can only live in the farm and has less and less time to return to the Wen Mansion.
Even if Yu Tingwan and others missed her, they could only come to see her, but they would not live here.
Yu Youning was too busy to take care of them.
They also didn't want Yu Youning to be distracted because of them.
Every time they came, they would bring a bunch of delicious food and chat with Yu Youning. When Yu Youning was about to go out to do something, they would leave.
Yu Youning stayed at the farm until the twelfth lunar month, and the college only closed on the day before the New Year.
The students all left, and Yu Youning also prepared to pack up and return to the capital.
As soon as I walked out of the house, I saw Chu Huaixu waiting outside.
"A Xu?"
Yu Youning was a little surprised and walked over quickly.
The sky was gloomy and it was about to snow. Chu Huaixu, wearing a white cloak, stood there quietly, watching Yu Youning approach with a smile.
"Why are you here?" Yu Youning looked up at Chu Huaixu.
"I know you're going back today, so I came to pick you up."
As Chu Huaixu spoke, he put the cloak in his hand on Yu Youning.
Yu Youning is a martial artist and has an exceptionally good physique, so he is not afraid of the cold at all.
But when Chu Huaixu put the cloak on her, she did not refuse.
"Then let's go!" Yu Youning smiled brightly, "Finally, I can go back and have a good rest! It's almost the end of the year, aren't you also very busy? Have you eaten well? Have you had a good rest?"
"Yes! If you don't believe me, you can check it out."
"That must be checked!"
As Yu Youning spoke, he directly grasped Chu Huaixu's wrist.
She just took Chu Huaixu's pulse like this.
"I'm not lying! I'm in good shape!"
Looking at Yu Youning's satisfied expression, Chu Huaixu also laughed.
He would never lie to Youning no matter who he lied to.
He would not ruin his body for other things.
He wanted to stay with Youning for a long time, so how could he dare to harm his body?
The two walked out hand in hand and got into Chu Huaixu's carriage.
In the carriage, Yu Youning's favorite tea and snacks were prepared.
The two chatted while Yu Youning ate.
By the time she finished her snacks and tea, they had finally arrived in the capital.
Yu Youning lifted the car curtain and looked out. "Calculating the time, I haven't been back for half a month! The capital seems to be still the same——"
Before he could finish his words, Yu Youning saw a different plaque.
It was a plaque hanging at the gate of a courtyard.
There were three big characters written on the plaque - Women's School!
When did the capital city have a girls' school?
Yu Youning quickly turned to look at Chu Huaixu, "Ah Xu, when did that girls' school come into being?"
"Just these few days. I was going to tell you, but I didn't expect you to see it yourself."
Although he said that, his smile didn't mean that at all.
He didn't tell anyone along the way, just to let Yu Youning see the surprise himself.
Yu Youning's mind worked quickly, and she realized something instantly, "Will women really be allowed to participate in the imperial examination three years from now?"
Otherwise, a girls' school would never have been opened with such fanfare.
