◎ Fresh! Can women still study? ◎
Listening to Mo Yu’s inner voice, Master Kang felt a little uncomfortable.
In fact, he didn’t quite understand what Mo Yu was mumbling at first. This
was not the first time that he heard Mo Yu’s inner voice. Normally, Master Kang should have been accustomed to Mo Yu’s strange ways of expression.
But this time, what Mo Yu said still stimulated him.
What’s going on? Can
women still study?
And study with men?
And what about the possibility that a woman in the harem will interfere in politics in the future and will lead the entire Qing Empire into the ditch?
Don’t quibble.
What “tool man”? Are you saying that the reason why the Qing Empire was beaten was mainly because of its weak national strength, and it had nothing to do with that woman?
This is a lie.
It must be that woman who interferes in politics and has no ability, which makes the country weak and the people miserable...
Humph, "Only women and villains are difficult to raise", the ancients are not deceiving me.
Master Kang thought about these things while muttering in his heart, but he also felt the emotion of "although I don't understand it very well, I always feel that it makes sense."
Fortunately, Master Kang didn't dwell on it for too long, and soon he thought of the ultimate solution to this matter.
Lin Moyu has always been a bit of a man, so there is nothing wrong with him saying this.
Sure enough, women should read more books of sages and understand the truth, so that they won't mess around once they have power.
This Lin family kid talked for a long time, and finally said something useful.
Well, let's do it this way.
It's just to build a school. Since there's already an Imperial College, at worst, we can just build a girls' school next to the Imperial College.
After all, even if he ordered coeducation, it can't be done overnight.
The tradition of "men and women should not touch each other" has been around for thousands of years. Apart from anything else, if he really dares to follow the bold idea of the Lin family kid and directly set up coeducation, there will definitely be a big uproar.
Those old ministers who are the oldest, most experienced, with white eyebrows and beards, and are about to be buried, will definitely be the first wave to oppose.
So, it's better to do it step by step.
Thinking of this, Master Kang nodded and said, "Well said, tell me more about it. I am very interested in this 'national university' you mentioned."
Since Master Kang said so, Mo Yu no longer hid it and simply told him what kind of university he wanted to build.
When talking about "coeducation", Mo Yu hesitated for a moment, but still chose to use a more euphemistic way to say it.
As a result, Master Kang laughed after he had just said a few words:
"I thought it was something else - that men and women study in the same school?"
Mo Yu nodded and said, "That's right, Your Majesty, do you think this is a bit unconventional?"
Master Kang smiled without saying anything, turned around and brought up the Thirteenth Prince.
"Old Thirteen, what do you think?"
The Thirteenth Prince smiled and said, "Although I have never heard of this before, if they are separated by a screen or a curtain, in the same room, and studying under the same teacher, I think it is not too far-fetched."
Master Kang smiled and nodded, commenting, "I didn't expect that Old Thirteen still has some ways."
After laughing twice, he asked about the Third Prince and the Eighth Prince again.
The Third Prince has always been a cold scholar, and he exploded immediately after hearing this.
He firmly supports the faction of "men and women should not touch each other".
I don't know if it's because he edited books every day that made his brain more and more like those ancient books, or if he didn't want women to read books and learn to read like them, anyway, the Third Prince voted against it firmly. The Eighth
Prince was still the same as always, trying to smooth things over when asked, saying both sides had their reasons and didn’t want to offend anyone.
The Eldest Prince and the Crown Prince were even more confrontational, with the Crown Prince saying that he supported the Thirteenth Brother’s opinion - he would definitely not agree with the Eighth Prince, after all, they were now in opposing camps, while the Eldest Prince was just the opposite.
Now the Eldest Prince and the Eighth Prince were like a pair, and they were as close as one person.
The Eldest Prince would tell everyone that the Eighth Prince was raised in the palace of his mother, Concubine Hui, when he was a child, and that they were brothers from the same mother, and that this brotherly love was different from that of ordinary brothers.
They were infinitely close to being biological children.
Having said that, the Eldest Prince would definitely be tied to the Eighth Prince.
It can be said that even if the Eighth Prince said that the moon was square, the Eldest Prince would follow suit.
Now, it's just a discussion about "women's education", so what does it matter?
Just agree without thinking.
Anyway, in the eyes of the extremely patriarchal eldest prince, women are just objects, purely tools for sexual release and procreation.
Since they are all tools, how can they deserve his concern?
Whether to study or not, what to study, that is not his concern at all.
So, since the eighth prince said that they should study, then let them study, I have no objection.
Among the princes who are vying to speak, the fourth prince is the least noticeable.
Because basically no matter when, whenever Master Kang wants to summon all his sons and does not specify who to respond, the fourth prince will quietly hide in the corner and be a qualified listener.
To put it in a nice way, he is "quiet as a chrysanthemum".
To put it in a bad way, he would shrink away when encountering problems, which would easily make him ignored by Master Kang who likes strong people. No wonder Master Kang looked down on him at the beginning.
In the eyes of Master Kang who is always tough, the situation of the four masters is basically equivalent to "frustration".
Sons can be stupid, but they cannot be "frustrated". This is Master Kang's bottom line.
He has always judged all his sons in this way.
So what was the reason that made him change his mind in the end and pass the throne to the fourth master? It must be that after weighing the pros and cons for a long time, there was really no other son who was more suitable.
Master Kang must have felt bad.
He finally had so many sons and raised them all, but in the end he didn't even have a comfortable and satisfactory heir. It was also a pity.
It is estimated that he passed the throne to the fourth master with a pinched nose in the end. Otherwise
, he would not have waited until his death to issue this imperial edict, making the fourth master's throne always unsteady.
After all, no matter who it is, seeing Master Kang throw the throne so casually, and even with only Longkodo present to witness it, it was a bit too frivolous.
Not dignified enough, maybe there is some cat-sickness.
In addition, the Eighth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince have been spreading rumors about this among the people, and finally it has intensified and become unresolved.
The Fourth Prince's qualification to inherit the throne has always been somewhat unjustified - after all, he is not the eldest son, his mother is not of high birth, and he has never been favored by his father, Master Kang. This really makes people suspicious and think that there must be something fishy.
To be honest, Master Kang really doesn't like the Fourth Prince's son.
None of his characteristics are what the old man appreciates the most, but he has stepped on several of his least appreciated points.
Not to mention the Crown Prince and the Thirteenth Prince, in the eyes of Master Kang, this Fourth Son is not even as good as the Third Prince who is only good at academics...
Even so, the Fourth Master defeated these powerful brothers and became the final winner. Even if it was just a small gain, one has to admire his good luck.
However, these are all later stories and are of no use in solving the current predicament of the Fourth Master.
In fact, this predicament of the Fourth Master has existed until the time of succession. Although this state enabled him to achieve the final victory and smoothly succeed to the throne in the midst of many powerful people, it also left him with a great psychological shadow.
Originally, everything should have continued in this way, but with Mo Yu's voice being expressed, the situation has obviously changed again.
Mo Yu had just "pitied" the four great masters in his heart when he saw subtle changes in the expressions of the people present.
The most obvious ones were the Crown Prince and the Eighth Prince. The faces of the Eldest Prince and the Third Prince were not very good either, but the Thirteenth Prince looked quite happy.
The faces of the four great masters were gloomy, but Master Kang's expression was as calm as water.
As for whether it was as calm under this calm surface as on the surface, no one knew.
Just when everyone was ready to make a move and was ready to speak up to "defend", Master Kang suddenly spoke up and asked the four great masters: "What do you think, Fourth Prince?"
After saying this, everyone present became quiet.
Everyone's face or eyes seemed to say: Why are you still pretending? Lin Moyu has already said that the fourth prince will be the emperor in the future. Father, why are you still asking him? It's a waste of time.
The fourth prince was also slightly stunned at first, and then he responded.
His answer was basically the same as the Thirteenth Prince's, but some details were more convincing.
Even Mo Yu couldn't help but sigh. The logical thinking ability of this fourth prince was really amazing. He was so organized when he spoke casually, as if he had already thought it over.
Apart from anything else, just for this point, he is worthy of his right to inherit the throne.
Mo Yu made such comments in his heart, and of course he expressed them as always.
Everyone couldn't help but feel excited when they heard it.
However, seeing that Master Kang still had a very calm expression, they were not so excited.
Okay, since it has come to this, and the old man still doesn't say anything, then let's continue to play together.
Well, just play.
The princes suppressed their anger and waited for Master Kang's comments.
Unexpectedly, this time, Master Kang did not comment, but directly ordered: "Since that's the case, let the Fourth Prince, the Thirteenth Prince and Lin Moyu plan this matter."
Ah?
That's it?
Everyone looked at each other, and couldn't help but want to say, Your Majesty, you are too hypocritical.
However, after this incident, everyone gradually understood Master Kang's attitude.
It turns out that he still listened to Lin Moyu's "oracles".
Isn't this good for the Fourth Prince?
So all the deliberate alienation and indifference in the past were just pretending?
It turns out that we are the little idiots.
The Crown Prince was very indignant, and the eldest and eighth princes were not convinced either. Even the third prince felt that the fourth master was just lucky and was simply blessed by the "oracle". He was not good at anything, but he was able to get promoted. It was simply unfair.
But no matter what they thought in their hearts, they could not shake Master Kang's idea.
This National Women's University has gradually begun to be built.
Mo Yu is the first president of this National Women's University.
