Chapter 258: Headmaster
It is expected that Tongjiang Academy will elect a new principal.
"Then Nian Sihua, daughter of the Nian family, will be appointed as the principal of Tongjiang Academy."
who?
Nian Zhaoyun thought there was something wrong with his ears, and his smile froze.
"How can she do that?"
Nian Zhaoyun shouted directly.
He was afraid of Qu Ling, but for the position of headmaster, he could not retreat this time.
"Princess, the position of headmaster is of great importance, and Nian Sihua is not qualified for it!"
Qu Ling saw that Nian Zhaoyun's legs were shaking, so he asked him, "Why can't Nian Sihua do it?"
"All students in the academy are men, how can a woman be the headmaster?"
Qu Ling did not answer, but turned to Nian Sihua, "You answer him yourself."
Nian Sihua stood up and confronted his second brother.
"Why can't women do that? If you think that me being the principal will bring shame to you men, then Tongjiang Academy can only accept female students from now on."
After she finished speaking, there was an uproar.
The students below could no longer sit still, and the teachers above were whispering to each other.
"You...you are simply unreasonable."
Nian Zhaoyun laughed angrily.
Tongjiang Academy only accepts female students. It's a miracle she came up with this idea.
"Absolutely not," Nian Zhaoyun glared, "You absolutely cannot be the principal of Tongjiang Academy."
"Why not?"
After all, it still revolves around those few sentences.
Nian Zhaoyun also knew that using women as an excuse no longer worked.
So he glared and said, "Although Tongjiang Academy belongs to the Nian family, it's not just the Nian family that has the final say. In our generation, there are you, me, and the third child. Among the three of us, ask the teachers and students in the academy who they like more."
When it comes to the selection of candidates for the academy, Nian Zhaoyun is very confident.
When his elder brother was alive, he helped out at the academy.
Among the three people in the Nian family, he is the only one who is most familiar with the people in the academy.
"I don't want to be the headmaster." Nian Zhaoqian said the first sentence of the day.
"No one will choose you even if you want to be one." Nian Zhaoyun said angrily.
At this time, the two brothers should unite.
This third brother is such a fool, always trying to sabotage things.
"I agree that my sister can take the position of principal." Nian Zhaoqian continued.
"What did you agree to? What do you know? Just shut up." Nian Zhaoyun was angry.
"Of course I do."
Nian Zhaoqian said, "The position of principal represents the academy. You can't read, you can't write, and your knowledge is extremely poor. If you become principal and communicate with other academies in the future, you will not know anything and make a fool of yourself. It will be the people of Tongjiang Academy who will be embarrassed."
This is a wake-up call.
It was a wake-up call for those who wanted to choose Nian Zhaoyun.
The gentlemen in the academy exchanged glances.
That's the reason.
Nian Zhaoyun is proficient in general affairs, but he is good at learning...
Not to mention that at this age he couldn't even pass the exam to become a scholar.
Just the handwriting alone... can only be described as horrific.
"I also agree that my aunt should take the position of the headmaster." Nian Zheng, holding the child, expressed her opinion.
She represents the next generation of the Nian family.
As soon as she spoke, the balance completely tilted towards Nian Sihua.
"It's time for Tongjiang Academy to find a new principal with a longer-term vision."
Pei Jingming smiled and said, "There's a Mingshan Academy in the capital. The principal is a former official of the Imperial Censorate. They've already begun to accept female students in accordance with the will of heaven. You in Jiangnan are still arguing about whether the principal should be a man or a woman. After all, you're in a remote place, not as good as the emperor's feet."
What he said was really too much and caused dissatisfaction among the people.
Pei Jingming didn't care at all, and even said sarcastically, "In my opinion, the princess doesn't need to waste her time on Tongjiang Academy. She can just ask Mingshan Academy to open a few more branches in Jiangnan."
"No, absolutely not!" Nian Zhaoyun was anxious.
The teachers in the academy were also anxious.
Prince Rui is going to destroy everyone's jobs.
The fact that Tongjiang Academy has the status it has today is partly due to the support of the imperial court, but also largely because there is no other academy in the entire Jiangnan region that can rival it.
Moreover, Nian Zongben, a great scholar with real talent and knowledge, is dead.
The Nian family is no longer as good as it used to be.
If the imperial court really takes over Mingshan Academy, Tongjiang Academy will have no place to stand.
"I feel that since Nian Sihua was able to pass the imperial examination, he is very suitable to serve as the headmaster."
The quick-tongued gentleman has switched sides.
Let’s just call Nian Sihua Nian Sihua, he is better than that loser Nian Zhaoyun in all aspects.
Others also echoed and chose Nian Sihua.
"Mr. Fang, Mr. Zhou, you...how could you..." Nian Zhaoyun's face twisted.
All the wine and snacks he treated these people to during this period were fed to the dogs, right?
Qu Ling looked at Nian Zhaoyun, who was jumping with anxiety, and said, "If you don't agree, why don't you compete with Nian Sihua?"
Nian Zhaoyun shuddered, took two steps back, and blurted out, "I won't compete."
What's there to compare? He's not stupid.
