"Goddess? Why would a goddess want this thing?"
Emperor Wen Kang sat up straight abruptly.
"Father, the Goddess was very angry about the Shangshufang incident, so she ordered me to establish a girls' school. After much consideration, I still believe that only Heyun Tower is the most suitable place."
Upon hearing about the establishment of a girls' school, Emperor Wen Kang stood up angrily and asked, "Establish a girls' school? Is this what the goddess said?"
Yu Churan lowered his head suddenly, "I dare not deceive my father."
The beard on Emperor Wenkang's chin trembled, and he was very unwilling to do so.
Allowing girls to go to school is already against ancestral teachings, and establishing a girls' school is completely a fantasy.
He was about to refuse outright when he suddenly thought of the consequences of the goddess's anger. He had not yet forgotten Yu Mingjie's tragic death.
After a long time, Emperor Wenkang reluctantly agreed.
"Since it's the goddess' order, then go and do it!"
"Your son obeys."
A smile flashed across Yu Churan's eyes.
...........
Princess Yuanyun wanted to establish a girls' school, and the news caused an uproar in the court.
The emperor had previously granted special favor by ordering women to be able to study in the Shangshufang, but now he is actually going to establish a special school for girls. Isn't this wishful thinking?
A group of people headed by the censor were the first to jump out and frantically obstruct.
"Your Majesty, how could you agree to Princess Yuan Yun doing this? This has never happened before in the Yu Dynasty."
"Your Majesty, Princess Yuanyun is a woman, how can she show herself in public like this? I hope Your Majesty will think twice."
"Your Majesty, establishing a girls' school goes against our ancestral teachings."
Duke Lin was unhappy. "Imperial Censor Fei, I am not happy with what you said. What do you mean women cannot show their faces in public? Princess Yuanyun has been favored by the goddess. If you have the guts, go talk to the goddess."
The minister named Fei Yushi's face instantly turned pale. If he could blame the goddess, why would it be your turn to say it here?
Seeing that Censor Fei had fallen silent, Duke Lin stepped forward with his tablet and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Yuanyun serves the Goddess daily. The establishment of the girls' school must have been the Goddess's idea. Therefore, not only must we not oppose it, we must strongly support the Goddess' decision."
Wen Youli, who had finally arrived for court, also came out and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that what Duke Lin said is reasonable. We must agree with all the decisions made by the Goddess."
"Your Majesty, this old minister also agrees..."
Several ministers also echoed Wen Youli's words.
"you....."
Several imperial censors were dumbfounded. How could this be different from what they expected?
Shouldn't everyone be opposing this matter together? Why are you refuting them now?
Emperor Wenkang saw that the group had argued enough before he slowly spoke, "What the Duke said is true. This matter is indeed the will of the Goddess. I have agreed to give Heyun Tower to Yuan Yun."
Heyun Tower?
The faces of the princes who had been as quiet as chickens changed when they heard this.
Ever since the eldest brother died, they have all been eyeing this piece of cake.
Although Heyun Tower was sealed off by their father himself, they still did not give up and wanted to take over this place.
There is no other reason. It is just that Heyun Tower is large and famous, especially it is next to a large lake. It is a good place for them to discuss things with their subordinates.
Heyun Tower was bought by the eldest brother before them, and they saw with their own eyes that the place was making a fortune day by day.
After waiting for so long for him to die, he ended up falling into Yuan Yun's hands again.
Suddenly, several people had different thoughts.
Yuan Yun is the legitimate princess and is not biased towards anyone. If they can get close to Yuan Yun, wouldn’t that be a disguised proof that they are favored by the goddess?
When the quarreling group heard that it was the goddess who made the request, they suddenly fell silent.
The seventh day after King Liang's death had not yet passed, and they did not want to offend the goddess at this critical juncture.
Those who were targeted by the goddess seemed to die miserably.
They had heard that those who came to steal the elixir were reduced to ashes in an instant, and some were even burned to death.
Their scalps tingled at the thought of this situation.
His Royal Highness Prince Liang's death was not unjust. He tried to deceive the gods, and he deserved this fate.
..........
Yu Churan was extremely quick. As soon as he got the title deed to Heyun Building, he immediately gave the order to start construction.
She took the drawings given by Ye Xin, and she and Lin Jinxia stayed up all night staring at the Heyun Building which was undergoing major changes.
Oh no!
It is no longer called Heyun Tower.
Ye Xin named this girls' school "Xiangyang College", which means to be born facing the sun and grow against the wind.
As soon as this name came out, it received unanimous approval from Yu Churan and Lin Jinxia. The woman was able to escape from the abyss and should rush towards her new life.
This academy is just the beginning. Slowly, the women will have their own lives and will not be confined to the rear house.
The renovation of Xiangyang College is a huge project, and even if Yu Churan brought Lin Jinxia over, he would still be busy.
In response to this, Yu Churan would run to Ye Xin and cry whenever he had time.
"Sister Xin, this is not a job for a human being. I haven't washed for three days."
Yu Churan cried loudly to Ye Xin. She was a princess who had to bathe with flower petals every day, but now she had not returned to the palace for three days and had not had a good sleep.
Ye Xin put away the fruit in her hand with a guilty conscience, "Ran Ran, those who are capable should do more work, so I can only trouble you."
Yu Churan was full of grievances, and looked at Ye Xin pitifully with his mouth open.
Ye Xin turned his head away to avoid her sight. "How about this, didn't I ask you to collect some information before? See who you can call over, and I'll go and kidnap them for you."
The tears in Yu Churan's eyes suddenly disappeared, "Sister Xin, I'll go check it out right away."
"Go, go!"
Ye Xin waved her hand and watched the little girl, who had recovered with full health, run out the door.
This is why she doesn't want to supervise the work herself. Only those who have experienced it know how it feels.
With Ye Xin's guarantee, Yu Churan and Lin Jinxia quickly selected the suitable (unlucky) candidate from a thick stack of letter papers.
"Yu Xiao, Tong Yun, and Chang Zhiyuan, are these the only three?"
Ye Xin shook three thin sheets of rice paper. She had recorded the information on such a thick stack of rice paper before. It was impossible that she only selected three people!
Yu Churan took out a few more pieces of paper with an embarrassed look on his face. "Actually, there are a few more people, but I'm not very familiar with them, so I don't know if it's appropriate to have them come."
Ye Xin picked it up and scanned it.
"You Hanshuang in the Grand Tutor's Mansion, Shi Zinan in the Minister of Revenue's Mansion, and Ban Yu in the Assistant Minister of War's Mansion."
Ye Xin thought carefully and quickly found the face corresponding to the name in her mind.
"I have a good impression of these girls. You can call them over."
Ye Xin straightened her clothes, took a few sheets of rice paper, turned around and disappeared in front of the two people.
Yu Churan and Lin Jinxia smiled helplessly, looked at each other, and went downstairs to take a bath.
Help will be here soon, they can't show themselves like this.
