Chapter 698 I Actually Know the Queen
"So you want to build a girls' school..."
Jun Lie knew Xiao Jiuyue's idea and he supported it very much. However, even though he was the emperor, when it came to money, except for his own private money, he had to consider the rest in the court.
"No rush."
Xiao Jiuyue smiled and said, "We can start by opening it like a boys' school. Besides Shengjing, we can try it out in a few other places. I believe that once more people see the benefits of studying, everyone will naturally be willing to send their children to school!"
She is not a saint and it is impossible for her to change the fate of everyone. However, as long as girls' schools are opened and women really serve as officials in the court, she believes that gradually, more and more people will want women to study!
"Before, I was too impatient and couldn't wait to let all the poor girls go to school. But haste won't get you the results. Take your time!"
The ice is three feet thick, and it didn't freeze overnight. It is simply a pipe dream for her to think that the concept that has been around for thousands of years can be changed in just a few years.
"Yu'er." Jun Lie felt relieved immediately after hearing her words. He was really worried that Xiao Jiuyue would get stuck in a dead end. She meant well, but it would not be easy to actually do it.
"We've already decided on a few places for our Southern Tour. Take a look. Is there anything you particularly want to visit?"
Jun Lie took the initiative to change the subject and brought up the Southern Tour, saying, "The child is still young. We mostly travel by ship and use water transport. This way, the child can adapt more smoothly!"
"The carriage is too small. Not to mention Little Star, even Little Grape and the other two are at the age where they love to crawl around. If they were stuck in the carriage the whole time, they would definitely be uncomfortable!"
When Jun Lie was choosing a place, he specifically picked a city near the canal.
"The route you planned is very good. Isn't this place far from Hongdu?" Xiao Jiuyue saw the Hongdu logo on the map at a glance.
"Yes, Xiao Xingxing and the others haven't been to Hongdu yet. I want to take them for a walk."
When Jun Lie planned his route, he deliberately planned to stay in Hongdu for half a month. He said, "Half a month, apart from the time spent on the road, we can still stay in Fu'an Village for ten days!"
"Ten days isn't a long time, but it's not easy to go!" Xiao Jiuyue grinned. "It will be summer when we go. Unfortunately, the oranges are not ripe yet. Otherwise, I could take Xiao Xingxing to pick oranges!"
"Little Star really loves eating oranges!"
I especially like the oranges from Fu'an Village.
"Although there are no oranges, there are plenty of fruits and vegetables in summer. I remember that Fu'an Village also grows watermelons?" Jun Lie knew Fu'an Village very well.
"Yeah, I actually forgot. My brother told me before that Hongdu has planted watermelons, and this year should be the first batch. I think if the villagers of Fu'an Village plant watermelons, they will definitely be sweet!"
Xiao Jiuyue instantly became excited and said, "It's only February now, and it will take another three months before we can leave!" On the fifth day of May, after the Dragon Boat Festival, they would set out on a southern tour.
"Jun Lie, tell me, what will Shi Lizheng and the others do when they see us? Will they be scared?"
Xiao Jiuyue suddenly became curious.
"Auntie He, He Lian, Shi Lizheng's daughter-in-law, Tian Jinhong, and Lei Yan and Chu Ang..." Xiao Jiuyue mentioned these familiar names and couldn't help but say, "I wonder what Fu'an Academy has become now!"
She had received news before that Fu'an Academy had been expanded again, and the Huaixian Academy in the county had been moved to the back of the queue!
The most famous village in Lancang County is Fu'an Village. The queen of the time lived here for three years, and the Fu'an Academy was built with the queen's money and effort!
The queen's younger brother once studied at Fu'an Academy.
Mr. Jiang Yu, the editor of the Hanlin Academy of the current dynasty, once taught here!
With all these things happening one after another, the emergence of Jiang Yu is a big deal. Now it is the former residence of the queen, which attracts many people to come here.
"It's definitely good. Who knows, it might become even more famous in the future." Jun Lie was also a little curious. He said, "When we get to Fu'an Village, I'm going to take you to a place!"
"You're taking me?" Xiao Jiuyue raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you sure I'm not the one taking you?"
She stayed in Fu'an Village for three whole years!
Jun Lie smiled and said affirmatively: "I'll take you."
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. The two-and-a-half-year-old little Xingxing has recently become interested in martial arts. He follows Guo Yang every day and wants to learn martial arts.
Guo Sheng wanted to teach, but Xiao Xingxing had set his sights on Guo Yang.
Xiao Jiuyue smiled silently, as if she saw Xiao Jiayuan of that year!
After the Dragon Boat Festival, Xiao Jiuyue said goodbye to the Xiao family and embarked on a southern tour!
Jun Lie's worries were right. The children stayed in the carriage and were quite excited at first, but soon they became like eggplants hit by frost. Xiao Jiuyue was heartbroken. It was not until they got on the third-floor boat that the children seemed to come back to life.
"Luckily we took the water route." Xiao Jiuyue looked at the happy children and couldn't help but smile: "Luckily, we have Zhuangzhuang and the others. The children are together, so I feel much more at ease!"
"Be careful." Xiao Jiuyue looked at Little Grape who was about to climb onto the table and couldn't help but remind her. Among the triplets, Little Grape was the most active!
The quietest one is Xiaotuanzi!
Little Lizi is pretty good. When he's crazy, he can go crazy with Little Grape, but when he's quiet, he can also play building blocks with Little Tuanzi.
"The children are grown up now. You can be at ease with Lianxin and the others." Jun Lie looked at the children together and put his arm around her waist. "Yuer, how about letting the children stay with Lianxin and the others tonight?"
Jun Lie's eyes were as hot as fire. He had been in the carriage since the southern tour. Even when staying in an inn, the children stuck to Xiao Jiuyue.
Now that we are on the boat, there is plenty of space and we don’t have to worry about the children at all.
"Why, did you miss me?" Xiao Jiuyue pinched his waist quietly: "Then, see you tonight?"
Xiao Jiuyue whispered something in his ear and then ran away immediately. Jun Lie's lips curled up slightly.
…
Sitting on the ship, heading south, seeing that they were getting closer and closer to Hongdu, Xiao Jiuyue was extremely excited. In a blink of an eye, it had been five or six years since he left Fu'an Village!
Is Fu'an Village still the Fu'an Village in our memory?
In Fu'an Village, the old house of the Xiao family looks more magnificent than before after renovation.
"Hey, Aunt Shi, have you noticed that there seem to be a lot more people in the Xiao family's house? Are they all cleaning?"
Aunt Shi took a look and said, "Hasn't the Xiao family's old house been cleaned spotlessly every year in recent years?"
Aunt Shi looked at the increasingly imposing house halfway up the mountain and said with emotion, "When I first saw Miss Xiao, I thought she was as beautiful as a fairy from heaven. I never thought she would become the queen now!"
"Xiao Lian, to be honest, sometimes when I wake up in the middle of the night, I feel like I'm dreaming. I actually know the queen!" When Aunt Shi thought of this, she felt like she was dreaming!
