Chapter 44: Eating Big Melon Again
After they confirmed with each other and knew that every family had received the letter, they all had some ideas in mind.
Finally, they unanimously decided to send their daughter there to try the waters. If she is successful, she can continue to study there. It would also be good for her to meet more people there, who will be the family's future connections.
If that doesn't work, just find an excuse to come back. The academy can't just let you go.
When the girls knew they could go to school, they cheered and couldn't wait to pack their luggage, hoping to get to the girls' school as soon as possible.
Not only the noble circle was shocked by the news of the girls' school, but ordinary people also received notification letters from the girls' school, and their notification letters were somewhat different from those from the Guilin circle.
It said that girls could go to the girls' school to learn skills and literacy, and that not only was there no tuition, but food and accommodation were also provided.
At one time, many women were tempted. They did not have the ambitions of the noble ladies. They just thought it would be good to learn a skill to support themselves. At least when they get married in the future, they can stand up straight in their husband's family, not be looked down upon by their husband's family, and suffer less bullying.
So some women from poor families discussed with their families, packed their bags, and embarked on this journey that would change their lives.
The girls entered the school one after another, and three days later they officially started their different lives.

After traveling for more than a month, Xiao Lie and Baili Xi finally arrived in the capital.
Xiao Lie was riding on his horse, looking at the plaque above his head. The familiar word "Beijing" made him feel excited, and a little homesick.
Baili Xi had already arrived outside the gate of the capital city. He pursed his lips nervously, looking at the vermilion gate, and suddenly he had the idea of backing out.
Xiao Lie was thinking for the 16845th time in his mind how to explain the matter between himself and Baili Xi to his mother and brother, and did not notice that something was wrong with him.
I didn’t know that his wife almost ran away.
Just when Xiao Lie was worrying about what to say, he was completely unaware that someone had already explained it for him.
In the morning court, Shen Shixu was bored listening to the quarrel between two ministers. It was the same old story: one wanted money and the other refused to give it. The two of them had been arguing for nearly a quarter of an hour.
Shen Shixu raised his sleeves and yawned secretly, glanced at the people around him, and stepped to the right, trying to find a place to secretly take a nap.
Just when he found a perfect angle to slack off, 011 suddenly popped up and said to him excitedly: "Brother, there is a big piece of news. You will definitely perk up after listening to it. 】
011As soon as these words came out, the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Works, who were originally arguing, immediately quieted down, returned to their respective seats, and pricked up their ears to listen to what the big news was.
Emperor Wu An, who had been secretly dozing off while sitting on the dragon throne, also became alert.
The third prince and the sixth prince also stood quietly to the back, while everyone was looking for a suitable position to watch the show.
[What big news makes you so excited?] 】
[Hehe, brother, I guarantee that this melon will be so shocking that your eyes will fall out. 】
011's exaggerated method aroused Shen Shixu's curiosity, and so did the others. They were all very anxious in their hearts. What kind of big news was it? Why haven’t you said anything yet?
[Ahem, Emperor Wu An has a younger brother—the Free and Easy King Xiao Lie. This free and easy king liked his freedom and disliked the disputes in the court, so he went out to roam the world.
He was highly skilled in martial arts and a righteous man, and soon made a name for himself in the martial arts world, being known as the "Free and Easy Swordsman".
What I want to talk about is his love life. Prince Xiaoyao is the Queen Mother's son who was born in her old age. He is about the same age as the Crown Prince, but he has no one around him until now, which makes the Queen Mother very worried.
And today he came back with his beloved, but the identity of his beloved is very special, he is the Holy Son of Southern Xinjiang. 】
Hearing this, Emperor Wu An wondered if there was something wrong with his ears. He just heard Shen Shixu's inner voice saying that his brother fell in love with the Saint of Southern Frontier. Does this mean that his brother's sleeves were broken?
Emperor Wu An glanced at Quan Xi beside him. Quan Xi was also shocked that the young prince fell in love with a man. However, when Emperor Wu An looked at him and asked him if he had heard it wrong, he gave him a negative answer.
Emperor Wu An's straight back suddenly bent for a moment, and his reaction was seen by Xiao Jinyi who had been staring at him.
Xiao Jinyi didn't like going to court before, but since Shen Shixu started going to court, he also came to court every day.
Just now, after hearing that his uncle fell in love with a man, he felt like he had found a companion. At the same time, he was secretly observing Emperor Wu An's reaction to see what he thought about men falling in love.
When he saw his suddenly bent back, he felt a chill in his heart, as if he had already seen the future scene where Emperor Wu An would try to obstruct him in every way after knowing his thoughts.
Emperor Wu An was only shocked for a moment. He didn't expect that his brother was actually gay. He didn't think too much about other things for the time being.
[After King Xiaoyao gained a reputation as a free and easy swordsman in the martial arts world, he was invited by the then leader of the martial arts world to go to Southern Xinjiang to find the Southern Xinjiang Saint Son and ask him to save his son.
On the first day King Xiaoyao arrived in Southern Xinjiang, he met the Holy Son of Southern Xinjiang. However, neither of them knew each other's identity at the time and there was some quarrel.
After knowing each other's identities, the two quarreled even more fiercely and agreed to compete again in a year.
At that time, the Saint Son of Southern Frontier agreed to treat the son of the Martial Arts Alliance Leader. It was a very laborious process and would take some time to recuperate, so he did not take action at that time and agreed to fight again one year later.
However, they met again within a year. At that time, King Xiaoyao was hiding his identity and wandering the world. Because he went to southern Xinjiang to seek medical treatment, the leader of the martial arts world valued him very much, which made some people jealous.
King Xiaoyao was ambushed by someone and was poisoned. When the poison took effect, he met the Son of Southern Xinjiang, who was also ambushed by someone and ended up in Dagan.
These two had had an argument before and looked down on each other, but when they saw each other's embarrassed looks, they actually felt a sense of sympathy for each other for a moment.
The Saint of Southern Xinjiang detoxified Prince Xiaoyao, and Prince Xiaoyao also helped the Saint of Southern Xinjiang deal with the people who plotted against the Saint of Southern Xinjiang. The relationship between the two people suddenly developed rapidly and they became good friends.
However, both of them did not forget the agreed competition. When the time came, King Xiaoyao went to the appointment himself. The two men agreed to compete in the Blue Smoke Valley, which is the boundary between Southern Xinjiang and Dagan. In the end, King Xiaoyao defeated the Holy Son of Southern Xinjiang.
After they finished the competition, the Saint Son of Nanjing took King Xiaoyao to travel around southern Xinjiang. At that time, the two of them had no relationship other than friendship.
When King Xiaoyao was traveling in Southern Xinjiang, he passed by a tribe. The daughter of the tribe's chief took a fancy to him. She took advantage of the Southern Xinjiang Saint's retreat to give King Xiaoyao a love poison.
As the name suggests, this poison can only be cured by sexual intercourse. After realizing that he was poisoned, King Xiaoyao forced himself to escape and went to find the Saint Son of Southern Xinjiang to cure him.
The Saint of Southern Frontier was in seclusion, and was interrupted by him, causing him to suffer a backlash. Not only could he not get rid of the poison, but he also got himself involved. The two of them spent the whole night together like this. 】
