Chapter 143 Chapter 143 Royal Bloodline
The University Hall had been under continuous development and finally began to show results in the fourth year of his reign.
Zuo You diligently selected a teacher and, together with Lin Si, chose a major. Math, physics, and chemistry were essential. Math, physics, and chemistry were the foundation. Then, medicine, agriculture, and teacher training were added.
Zuo You and Temporary agreed to open these six subjects temporarily, and the teachers were also selected.
After the university was built, new education policies naturally had to be introduced. Now, if you want to become an official, you have to study in elementary school for three years, middle school for one and a half years, and graduate from the university for three years before you are eligible to take the civil service examination.
A more important exam was also born, that is the college entrance examination.
As soon as the policy was announced, some people were happy and some were worried. Those who were happy were naturally the last batch of middle school students who could take the civil service examination.
The ones who are worried are naturally the students who are about to take the college entrance examination.
Many people at that time thought that Anjing would build a primary school sooner or later, so why bother going to Lingzhou to study.
Now that I think about it, going to Lingzhou to study a year earlier than them just blocked the last batch of places available for middle schools to take the civil service examination this year.
When Minister Wang learned about this policy, he couldn't stop smiling, and couldn't help but sigh when he left the court.
"The policy changes every day, so it's best to do things early."
The other officials looked unhappy.
"Minister Wang is indeed foresighted, and it is we who are foolish."
"Now Minister Wang's daughter can take the civil service exam this year. Congratulations!"
These people gritted their teeth as they uttered their congratulations, but in their hearts they were calculating that their own children were three years behind Wang Yang.
Three years is enough to rise from Baizhi to county magistrate. If one performs well, it is not impossible to be directly promoted to prefect or to serve as an official in Anjing.
Xin Lin is old now, and after experiencing life and death last time, he has become indifferent to these things. Anyway, he will unconditionally believe and execute whatever Lin Si says now.
It would be fine as long as he could have Dr. Zhu check his body every year.
As for Xin Lin's grandchildren, they started school earlier than Wang Yang. Now they are working as Baizhi in Nandong Road, and are involved in the shipyard business.
Everyone knows that the Maritime Silk Road is a key project that His Majesty values, and the chances of this project rising to prominence are very high.
Minister Wang and Xin Lin walked together, and Minister Wang expressed his sincere gratitude. "If it weren't for Elder Xin's guidance, my Ayang wouldn't have such good luck."
Xin Lin stroked his beard and smiled, "It's okay, it's okay. This just shows that you have foresight."
As soon as the policy of the University Hall was issued, Zuo You and Lin Si felt that they could breathe a sigh of relief.
During these four years, primary schools and middle schools were opened in two other economically better areas.
Education is the foundation of a country, and Lin Si always keeps this in mind.
It was rare that there were fewer memorials to review today. Lin Si was planning to take a good nap after reading them, but Zhong Diyan appeared quietly and brought Lin Si a message.
Lin Si frowned.
"Lin Zhi abuses her own child?"
*
Lin Ying died a miserable death in his previous life.
She remembered that she was always scolded by her mother since she was born. Often, if she did something wrong, she would be scolded and made to kneel at the door.
It was icy and snowy, and it was raining outside. It was so cold.
Lin Ying just knelt there.
When Lin Ying was a little older, her mother told her.
She is a descendant of the previous dynasty. Her mother was Princess Pingyang of Dachen. As the only royal bloodline of Dachen today, she deserves revenge.
Lin Zhi constantly instilled her theory of national restoration into Lin Ying, and talked about Dachen's past day after day.
The current emperor Zhuo Zhengchu is neither legitimate nor justified, he is a traitor.
Lin Zhi has long been mentally unstable, she is like a mad woman.
"You must take revenge, you know that? You must take back the kingdom of Dachen."
"Why aren't you a man? If you were a man, I would still have a chance, but you happened to be a girl. I really hate it, I really hate it!"
Lin Ying covered his forehead and skillfully applied the medicated oil to his wound.
Just now, Lin Zhi went crazy again for some reason and threw a wooden stool straight at her. She couldn't dodge in time and was hit on the forehead.
Lin Ying has long been accustomed to and numb to it. She has been living like this since she was a child.
Last night, Lin Zhicai made her kneel in the snow all night. She was so tired that she fell asleep in the snow.
When she woke up, she was already in the neighbor's sister's house. The sister made ginger soup for her and sighed while looking at her own house.
She said she couldn't understand how there could be such a vicious mother in the world.
Lin Ying has been abused since childhood, and the neighbors have heard about it. They have never been kind to Lin Zhi.
Lin Zhi thanked him and when she returned home, her personal maid was looking at her with dissatisfaction.
Lin Ying knew that because she was not a boy, the maids around her mother would not treat her well.
Lin Ying once wondered silently whether he would be loved by everyone if he was a boy.
The child raised by the crazy woman is also abnormal. She doesn't know why she wants to fulfill this unrealistic fantasy of restoring the country.
But she didn't know what else she could do besides restoring her country, and what was the meaning of her living in this world?
Lin Ying felt that she was vicious.
In order to restore her country, she took advantage of her neighbor's elder sister and snatched her qualification to become a palace maid.
After she entered the palace, she never gave her true heart to anyone. She climbed up the ladder at all costs, and exploitation and betrayal were the norm.
She finally met a good target who could help her with revenge.
Zhuo Zhengchu's third son.
Although Lin Ying had a difficult life since childhood, she learned to read and behave herself. Lin Zhi would not allow her daughter to be a vulgar country woman. Lin Ying not only had to read and learn etiquette, but also had to be familiar with history books.
Lin Ying committed herself to the other party and conspired with the third son to stir up trouble in the court.
By the time Zhuo Zhengchu's third son ascended the throne, Lin Ying was already over thirty years old.
As a palace maid of humble birth, she naturally would not be crowned as queen. She was only given a small position as a concubine and was sent away.
Lin Ying's body was already badly injured from kneeling in the snow all night, so it was impossible for her to have a child.
So Lin Ying started to snatch other people's children. She casually investigated and dealt with the little concubine, and took away her baby son.
Lin Ying worked tirelessly and planned for half her life, killing the queen and then killing Zhuo Zhengchu's third son.
Leaving only the emotionless puppet son, Lin Ying supported her youngest son to ascend the throne, and she herself became the regent queen mother to control the government.
Lin Ying has planned everything out. It will only take some time for her to ascend the throne in a dignified manner.
Achieve true revenge.
Now that she has great power in the court, she only needs to kill this puppet son, and then she can ascend the throne as a woman.
She brought Lin Zhi into the palace, and she didn't know what she wanted to prove.
Perhaps, it was just a compliment from Lin Zhi, praising her for the hard work and great work she had done to get to where she is now.
As a result, Lin Zhi gave her a huge surprise.
She found a male member of her own clan from somewhere, and insisted that Lin Ying support this male member to ascend the throne and restore the Dachen bloodline.
Lin Ying was angry: "Am I not of Dachen bloodline?"
Lin Zhi was old, her hair white, but she was still stubborn. The sound of her cane was loud. "You are still a girl. It is not right for the emperor to do things like a girl. He is also your nephew. Why don't you agree?"
Lin Ying suddenly felt dizzy. She had been busy for half her life, but she was still no match for a strange nephew.
Because of Lin Zhi's high profile, Lin Ying's identity as a descendant of the previous dynasty was exposed.
She never expected that the heartless little emperor would secretly team up with court officials to kill her.
The little emperor had a blank expression. "I've saved some dignity for my mother. You can drink this cup of poisoned wine in peace."
Lin Ying didn't want to drink it, so she was forced to drink it.
In a trance, she seemed to see her childhood self again, a small girl hugging herself and crying silently in a corner.
Why doesn't my mother like me?
Lin Ying wanted to tell her that because she is not a boy, her mother will never like her.
Her life was a joke.
If there is an afterlife, so be it. She doesn't want one. A wicked person like her should be reduced to ashes.
But God seemed unwilling to let Lin Ying go.
She was reborn.
Her mother was still the same mother, but this time her country did not seem to be destroyed, and she lived in a magnificent mansion.
The maids around her were still the same ones, and they still didn't treat her well.
Before Lin Ying was three years old, she had been collecting information. Why is it different from her memories of her previous life?
Her brain capacity was limited and she was awake for very few hours each day, so it took her three years to figure it out.
Lin Zhi still disliked her and would occasionally take it out on her, but it was probably nothing compared to what happened in her previous life.
Lin Ying didn't want to continue living like this, so she cried deliberately to irritate Lin Zhi, and casually lifted her sleeves so that the bruises on her arms could be seen by the people on the roof.
As Lin Ying sat on the ox cart leading to the palace, she looked at the palace, which seemed both strange and familiar.
I just felt dazed.
Was my previous life really just a dream?
*
Lin Si finally understood why people laugh when they are speechless.
According to Zhong Diyan's description, Lin Ying's arms were covered with bruises from being pinched. Wu Gengtian also saw with his own eyes that Lin Ying was pinched on the arm by Lin Zhi because she was crying, and she screamed at her to be quiet.
Lin Zhi still didn't know why Lin Si hurriedly called her into the palace. She thought that she had never seen Lin Ying before and wanted to see her.
As a result, when she just led Lin Ying into the hall and saw a few officials in the hall, she bowed politely.
"Your Majesty, your sister greets you."
Several officials had come to discuss matters with Lin Si and were about to leave, but were stopped by Lin Si with a look.
Lin Si looked at Lin Zhi with disdain.
Lin Ying was full of curiosity about Lin Si and was looking up at her quietly.
This woman is so powerful that she can ascend the throne as a woman.
Lin Si said directly: "Lin Zhi, do you admit your guilt?"
Lin Zhi knelt hurriedly, "Your humble sister... Your humble sister does not know what crime I have committed."
Lin Si didn't move, but his eyes were sharp. "Do you think that only men can be emperors? Do you think that as long as you have a son, you can sit on this throne?"
Lin Zhi was so scared that her eyes almost popped out. She didn't understand why Lin Si suddenly had an attack. She had really lost her spirit since she gave birth to Lin Ying and had done nothing.
"Your Majesty, I have never meant that!"
Lin Si glanced at the officials who were discussing the matter.
The official was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and immediately knelt down tremblingly. "Your humble servant is terrified. Long live the emperor." Then he hurried away.
Chunyi walked forward and pulled Lin Ying aside, gently lifting the sleeve of Lin Ying's clothes.
It was covered with purple bruises from being pinched.
Lin Si raised his eyebrows: "Although Lin Ying is your daughter, her surname is Lin and she is of royal blood. Do I allow you to treat her like this?"
Lin Zhi raised her head, her face filled with fear. "No, I didn't. These were all caused by Ying'er herself accidentally. I really didn't do that."
After saying that, he stared at Lin Ying who had remained silent.
"Ying'er, please tell His Majesty that these injuries were not caused by my mother, right?"
Lin Ying was silent for two seconds, then turned around, her mouth clenched with tears. She said in a soft voice, "Your Majesty... Mother is so fierce. If Ying'er cries, she'll beat her. Ying'er gets beaten every day."
Lin Si looked at Lin Ying for two seconds. "Lin Zhi, how else are you going to argue?"
Lin Zhi could only kowtow repeatedly to show that she really did not mean it. It is inevitable for children to cry, and it is definitely not something that happens every day.
But how could Lin Si feel at ease to leave Lin Ying to Lin Zhi to raise? He didn’t know what kind of child she would become in the future.
Of course, the final result was that Lin Zhi was confined to the princess's mansion and was not allowed to go out without Lin Si's permission.
As for Lin Ying, she will stay in the palace for the time being.
Lin Ying was relieved, but still chose to act cute and silly as he looked at Lin Si.
Lin Ying was full of curiosity about Lin Si. She wished she could sit next to her to see what she did all day and how she got to the throne.
Lin Si temporarily sent Lin Ying to the Dowager's Palace.
Why does this child feel like a little adult? I’ll try her next time.
Maybe he traveled through time or was reborn.
