At this time, Wen Yu looked at him and asked, "Do you think a woman can be the top scholar?"
"No." Yue Lingfeng said, "But it's not because women don't have the ability or knowledge, but because the law doesn't allow it. There has never been a precedent of women taking the imperial examinations to become officials. If there were, it would have been paved with thorns and blood."
"But if the law allows, I believe that a female champion is not an unattainable dream. There will always be someone who can do it, because there are no fewer outstanding women in the world than outstanding men. It's just that they have no books to read and no education, just like Chunhua in the past."
Wen Yu didn't expect him to say this, and to be honest, she was a little surprised.
She took a sip of her tea and said, "It's not just thorns and blood, it also takes time."
Not to mention the prosperous dynasties, even up to the 21st century, there are still a lot of girls who have no education, and it is extremely rare to see women serving as officials.
When it comes to the director, many people tend to assume that the director is a man, simply because female directors are so rare, let alone those at a higher level.
If this is the case even in modern times, which have been shrouded in blood for thousands of years, what about the ancient times?
Wu Zetian was so terrifying and Princess Taiping was so ambitious, but she only improved the status of some women in the Tang Dynasty, but in fact this was already very impressive.
However, once the Song Dynasty came, the status of women returned to the pre-liberation era...
"Liuchun, buy some more books and send them to Chunhua's house, and say they are from this princess."
"Yes, Princess."
At this time, Wen Yu asked Yue Lingfeng again: "Do you think I can be the top scholar?"
Yue Lingfeng: ...
"Princess, do you want to hear the truth?"
"Of course, a talented princess like me must listen to the truth."
Yue Lingfeng couldn't help but laugh and said the truth: "A princess with so much talent may not be able to become the top scholar."
Wen Yu curled her eyes: "It's okay, if I can't be the top scholar, I will find a man who can be the top scholar, it's the same, it's worthy of me, I'm so happy."
Yue Lingfeng: ...
On the way back to the princess's mansion, Wen Yu ate two pieces of snacks and then started reading the storybook.
After a while, Liu Chun asked in surprise: "Princess, look, is that Lord Yang?"
Lord Yang?
Wen Yu put down the book, lifted the curtain and saw that it was indeed Yang Cheng.
He was not wearing the blue uniform of the Hanlin Academy today, but only a simple cotton and linen shirt. He was walking out of the bookstore holding a pile of books, with that familiar smile still on his face.
As soon as Wen Yu stopped the carriage, Yang Cheng recognized her and took the initiative to step forward and greet her, saying, "I pay my respects to the princess."
Wen Yu was surprised: "Common people?"
Yang Cheng explained: "I resigned from my post to His Majesty, and His Majesty approved it."
"Resign? Why? Because of your teacher, the Grand Secretary?" Wen Yu got off the carriage and walked towards the river with Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng originally thought that Wen Yu was going to persuade him and teach him that he should not resign from his official position. How many people wanted to enter the Hanlin Academy but couldn't, yet he actually gave up a bright future that was within his grasp.
Unexpectedly, Wen Yu clapped her hands in front of Jiang Feng and looked at him with a smile: "There's nothing wrong with resigning. You don't have to go to work or wear school uniforms. You can get up whenever you want and you don't have to be nervous about your brother's face. Isn't it great to think about it?"
Yang Cheng: …
As expected of a princess...
At this moment, Wen Yu suddenly remembered something and said, "I forgot to ask, do you have money? Enough for the rest of your life."
Yang Cheng was confused. He came from a well-off family, so he naturally wouldn't worry about money. He replied, "Yes."
Wen Yu clapped her hands: "That's all, I have money and time, I don't have to go to work and look after my boss, I can go wherever I want, it's like a fairy tale!"
Yang Cheng: …
He smiled and said, “Aren’t you always like this?”
Wen Yu: "Yes, so you see how moisturized I am, and I am becoming more and more beautiful!"
Yang Cheng: …
He pushed Ai Ai and said, "But Princess, I can't really do nothing."
Wen Yu sat down on the shore: "So what are you going to do?"
Yang Cheng had already made up his mind: "I decided to teach in the school."
"Which school? I want to attend classes too."
Yang Cheng: …
"Princess, I teach children."
Wen Yu was surprised: "I am still a child too."
Yang Cheng: …
Being with the princess, he could really get choked eight hundred times a day.
"I...will leave the capital and return to Hangzhou to teach."
Wen Yu pinched his chin and moved closer, "You want to leave?"
Yang Cheng's body stiffened. He felt uncomfortable being pinched, and his round eyes didn't know where to put them.
"Well, let's go back to Hangzhou. There's no point in staying in the capital after resigning from the post."
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows: "Why is it meaningless? Can you bear to leave me? After you leave Shengjing, you will not be able to see this beautiful princess anymore."
Yang Cheng: …
He was slightly startled, and said softly: "Anyway, the princess doesn't need me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to realize what he had said, and suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment: "Princess, what I mean is... I am not the only one who can appreciate your beauty."
Wen Yu took back her hand and said with a smile: "So you also secretly admire the beauty of this princess? I know that my beauty can kill people. Kill a lot of people, and they will all die."
Yang Cheng: …
Wen Yu looked mischievous and said, "Then tell me how beautiful I am."
Yang Cheng pursed his lips: "Very beautiful."
Wen Yu: "It's simple and sincere, but it doesn't match your former status as a Hanlin."
Yang Cheng: …
He is not good at speaking and can't say many nice things.
But everyone has questioned whether the princess is stupid or a fool, but no one has ever questioned her beauty. This shows that everyone recognizes Wen Yu's appearance.
"Are you really going to leave Shengjing?"
"Um."
Wen Yu looked at him sideways, then placed a gentle kiss on his lips, "It seems like we are not meant to be together. Let's kiss and enjoy it for a while."
But Yang Cheng was stunned.
It was like a frightened hamster holding melon seeds.
"Princess……"
Wen Yu waved her hand and stood up: "Have a safe journey."
At this time, she touched her chin and said: "It is said that Hangzhou is a food desert. I wonder if Hangzhou in Dasheng is the same."
Yang Cheng sat there, staring blankly at Wen Yu's back. His fingers touched the lips that Wen Yu had kissed, and they were very hot.
The princess... kissed him?
Is he going back to Hangzhou?
