Chapter 118: The nine-day examination is over.
The system didn't expect Fang Lingchu to have such an idea, so it asked curiously: [What kind of academy do you want her to open?]
Zhu Nini was actually quite curious about what kind of academy Fang Lingchu wanted her to open. After all, her academic performance was really average, and she had no other ideas except cooking.
Fang Lingchu said: "Of course it's cooking. When we train a group of girls who can be self-reliant, they will have more choices! Why can't so many women leave their families and fathers? Isn't it because they have no money and no rights?"
For those like Zhu Nini who have no ability to study, we should cultivate the ability to make money. For those like Xia Ruirui who can become officials, we should support them to contribute to the country. Girls who have money and power are no longer afraid of things like what happened the day before yesterday morning.
If there were one or two female officials in the court, I wouldn't have any difficulty moving forward.
At that time, I will ask my mother to open a bank and let women who want to be self-reliant borrow money and charge a little interest.
Anyway, there are always more solutions than problems. I must ensure that women have the same ability to survive as men, so that men will feel pressured and their quality of life will naturally improve.
The Dragon Kingdom's national fortune will surely flourish.
This is what Fang Lingchu thought. Let everyone get involved. There will be growth only where there is competition. Monopoly will generally cause problems.
The prince and Gu Wangyan didn't expect that Fang Lingchu had this other meaning behind letting women become officials.
The two looked at each other and both agreed with Fang Lingchu's idea, but...
The system asked: [Host, do you think those noble families won't cause you any trouble?]
Fang Lingchu explained: [They don’t want to, but there are people who do. For them, the demise of the country doesn’t matter, but for the emperor it is very important.
Besides, aristocratic families are a constant source of worry for every emperor. Look at the Han family, your Majesty's relatives, and those who were murdered when we first started court. One person's mistake can lead to the entire family being implicated, leaving the court without so many officials. How terrible! Only by breaking this monopoly can the country be better.
Fang Lingchu's words may seem like empty promises to common people and others, but it is different for the children of aristocratic families.
That would be a fatal blow. They have been in a class since birth. If this class is broken, then don't blame them.
The system is also worried that the aristocratic families will rebel.
[Host, isn't the Emperor afraid of those people rebelling?]
Fang Lingchu smiled and said: [Our emperor is a military general, and 80% of the military power is in his hands.
He has Gu Wangyan in his hands, so what is there to be afraid of? He's just hoping those people will make trouble, so he can find a reason to fire them.
Those young masters from aristocratic families were a little scared when they heard Fang Lingchu's words.
Writing the questions more seriously, they have already felt the future.
Fang Lingchu didn't know that her casual sighs and lofty ambitions would make everyone very nervous for a period of time in the future.
Those who could previously rely on their families for survival now feel a sense of crisis.
Those declining families now have hope of rebuilding their families.
The common people also saw hope and desired to have the same rights as those nobles.
As long as the emperor is still alive, no one will dare to rebel. After all, there are still many smart people.
There were also some people with mental problems, but the emperor was eager for them to give him money.
If he could seize more noble families, he would have a place to keep his private money.
Emperor Chongde in the palace was delighted to hear Fang Lingchu's affirmation of his abilities, and he worked even harder.
At the same time, the requirements for those ministers became increasingly strict, and those memorials full of nonsense were sent back directly.
Anyway, we have to report our work every day, and if it’s not a work report, we will be punished. Everyone is miserable!
At this moment, Fang Lingchu had no idea what was going on in Emperor Chongde's mind and was still talking big. She regretted it later.
Fang Lingchu and the system ate gossip about this person and that person every day, and slowly nine days passed.
Day 9
Fang Lingchu looked at the time and asked, "Guagua, why is time passing so slowly? It's the last class, and time is taking so long!"
This was the 20th time Fang Lingchu checked the time.
The system consoled him: [Host, it would be fine if you just spent less time looking at it.]
Fang Lingchu said unhappily: [I can't help it! ]
The system suddenly thought of something and asked: [Host, even if it's over, can you go home? Don't you have to change the question?]
Fang Lingchu got a headache when he took a look at the classical Chinese texts written by those people.
"Are you crazy, or is His Majesty? Your Majesty doesn't know my level, doesn't my father? And you're asking me to change the questions. Aren't they afraid of this bullshit?"
The system thought about it and said, "Host, you have five minutes left before you can leave work."
The guard next to him didn't want to attack Fang Lingchu, but he couldn't help but remind him: "Master Fang, you still have to follow us to the Hanlin Academy."
Hearing this, Fang Lingchu almost screamed. She looked at him in disbelief and asked in a low voice, "Why?"
Even though Fang Lingchu spoke very quietly, he was still discovered by the students.
However, in these nine days they have become accustomed to the sudden little noises made by Fang Lingchu.
The Grand Tutor explained, "All examiners must review the papers, and you, Master Xiao Fang, are no exception."
Fang Lingchu: ...
[Guagua, I'm about to faint. Seriously, why do I have to work overtime? I've been invigilating for so long.]
The system also felt sorry for its host, but unfortunately it couldn't help.
[Host, it's okay. They just want you to take a look. They won't ask you to actually change the topic.]
Fang Lingchu became even angrier when he heard this.
[I can't help, why don't you let me go home! ]
System: [Is it possible that no one is suitable? You are so special that they think you are going to marry the prince.]
When Fang Lingchu heard that she might be misunderstood as marrying the prince, she immediately became obedient.
Recently the Queen has been selecting princesses for the Crown Prince. Many of them are her recent good friends, and a few are her sister’s good friends.
She couldn't have any scandal with the prince at this time.
"I'm going, I'm going, isn't it? When is this prince going to get married?! I'm so annoyed."
When the prince heard Fang Lingchu's words, he no longer felt the same heartache as at the beginning.
Maybe he has become numb, or maybe he has accepted the result.
The exam will be over soon.
Everyone walked out of the examination room in a daze, and they no longer looked like human beings.
The carriages outside are all here to pick up their children.
Everyone from the Fang Mansion also came.
Even the busier Minister Fang was waiting at the door at this moment.
Preparing to pick up my three children.
Fang Lingyan and the others, together with Lin Wanrou, had just come out when they were helped onto the carriage.
The food and drinks are ready.
Several people started to eat voraciously. The examination hall really is not a place for people to stay!
The room was small, and although Fang Lingchu had suggested putting the toilet in another place, it would reduce their suffering from the smell.
But I really can’t say that the food and drinks are good, it’s hard to describe in words!
