538 Women's Academy

She said again: "This palace can't guess who is coming to Fengtianfu on an errand this time?" Today, I heard Grandma Hesan and Miss Mu talk about the matter of the He family, and I can guess a rough idea. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Roche pricked up his ears and stood not far from the warm couch, his heart fluctuating.

Jiang Ruoning said: "Someone secretly pointed out the second master of He, although the second master of the river is arrogant, he is not so aggressive, he is saving Uncle He, and he is also protecting the river family." ”

Ahh

Roche was stunned for a moment.

Jiang Ruoning hooked his lips and said, "Let's wait a few days, there will be an answer soon." Uncle He also thought that he had married a good wife, but he didn't know that it was the biggest scourge, and it was involved with the Si family. ”

The pony tilted his head in thought and said in a low voice: "The princess is saying that the Si family is involved in this case?" ”

"Don't you think, the matter of lanterns and paper ties, and Fengtianfu's raising of prices, this matter is more hateful than that over there, if it weren't for the palace to stop the situation out of his own pocket, it won't be long before other merchants will compete to follow suit, as before, the price of the entire Qingxi will rise, and the situation will be serious."

Jiang Ruoning's tone was unhurried, his voice was not high, but he spoke very clearly.

Luo was startled, if it weren't for her calm temperament, she would have been scared stupid, "It turns out that the princess is saving the River family?" ”

"Tell the third master of the river that he has filial piety now, and he will not go out to socialize in the near future, and close the door to study. To be an official, you must first learn to be a man, and to be an official in the hands of the prince, talent is important, and conduct is even more important. The talent is poor, be a small official who keeps to himself; If the talent is high, you must have a suitable character. The crown prince is not a person who can tolerate sand in his eyes, he is more stern and decisive than the emperor. ”

Jiang Ruoning said again: "From today onwards, the palace will refuse all visits, and will be here to copy the scriptures for Mrs. He." Cui Qian, give the order to go. ”

Cui Qian walked out of the courtyard gate and met the Lord of the Seven Counties, holding two plates of fruits in his hands.

"Lord of the Seven Counties, the princess has rested, and said that from now on, she will refuse all visits, and she will copy the scriptures for the old lady He."

The Lord of the Seven Counties handed the fruit to the pony and turned to retreat.

Roche asked, "Princess, ...... courtier?"

In the past few days, Jiang Ruoning asked Mama Bi to guide the rules of Luo's official wife, what kind of people to say what kind of words, and also let Luo practice her words and deeds, and also instructed her to dress up with makeup.

"You and the Lord of the Seven Counties and Miss Mu continue to accompany the palace, but it is not to copy the scriptures, but the palace wants to run a women's school in Qingxi County, and tomorrow will have the master of Chunhui Temple to come, so they will discuss the final details together, and say to the outside world that the master is giving a lecture to the palace."

Second Mrs. Li went to discuss with Second Master Li, and only repeated the words that Jiang Ruoning said to the Seven County Lords.

Second Master Li said: "The people of Fengtianfu are too flamboyant! This is to move the officialdom of Fengtianfu......"

"Master, those are two shops, and they are really resold. If it is re-sold, on what grounds? ”

"Reason? Isn't this ready-made, let's just say that our Li family wants to do some career for our two sons, and we need a lot of silver, go ahead, safety is the most important, sell the shop! If it's fast, it doesn't matter if it's sold lower, we have to pick it out ourselves. ”

Second Mrs. Li said again: "Master, do you want to tell the Tang family, the Qian family, and the Wu family?" ”

"We can pick it out, it is the princess who has shown that she will protect our family. But even if they follow the shop, they may not be able to keep it, don't be confused, hurry up and do it, keep your mouth shut, it's not that we don't help, it's that we all need others to help. ”

Second Mrs. Li responded, summoned the steward, and gave a careful order, ordering the steward to go to Fengtianfu immediately to deal with the shop, to the steward, she only said that the family was going to give the second master a career, and she needed a lot of silver, and now she couldn't raise money, so she had to sell the shop.

He's no longer an official, how can he still get involved?

Second Master Li quickly thought of "collusion between officials and businessmen", and after he was dismissed, he also bribed the officials of Fengtian Mansion, just wanting his shop to have a place in Fengtian City.

When Jiang Ruoning woke up, it was already afternoon.

Mama Bi found two scriptures and copied them.

Luo and the Seven County Lords also followed to help transcribe.

On the second day, the master of Chunhui Temple brought two female nuns to the door.

Jiang Ruoning said: "Please come to the door, the palace is preparing to open a women's school in Qingxi County, and I have planned the Tong Cheng, and I want to come to the master to see it." Mrs. Shi was also a girl from the Li family in her early years, and I am going to hand over this matter to the Li and He families, and I will give the money for the construction of the girls' school, and the later funds must keep up with the ......"

This matter began to be done after Jiang Ruoning burned Sanqi for the old lady, she drafted a simple charter, and asked Shang Huan and Cui Qian to go to Chunhui Temple to see Shitai, and donated two hundred taels of silver incense money, which is a huge amount of money for Chunhui Temple, even if it is a big family like the Li family, it is ten taels or twenty taels every time, and no one has ever donated two hundred taels all at once.

"The women's school accepts girls between the ages of six and twelve, in addition to teaching them to read and write, but also to teach the female red cooking, planting melons and fruits, etc., I am ready to pay a sum of money to buy some land for the Chunhui Temple, in addition to being a trial planting land for the women's school, but also as the base of the women's school."

The lord of the seven counties had heard of this teacher, and vaguely remembered that it was a concubine of the second master Li, and he heard that his life was hard, and he ordered a family at the age of fourteen when he was a girl, and before he waited for the door, the person was gone; I booked another family, and on the day of the wedding, the bad news of the groom's wife came. The fortune teller said that she had no chance of marriage, so she cut her hair and became a nun.

Later, the host of Chunhui Temple was gone, so she became a new teacher, and because of the help of the Li family, her life in the temple was quite good.

Mrs. Shi asked, "The princess doesn't teach the six arts?" ”

"Ordinary people, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and other things are not practical, they cannot be used as a means of making a living, and they cannot make money. If you want to teach, teach the most useful things, and you can have these courses, but the focus is on teaching them a skill. In the future, let the master of Chunhui Temple serve as the head of the female hall, and the Li and He families each selected a woman with both talent and virtue to be the deputy hall master. ”

Mrs. Shi asked lightly: "How much money is the princess going to invest?" ”

"How much do you need?"

"Thirty thousand taels of silver?"

"10,000 taels are used to buy 100 acres of fertile land, 50 acres belong to my Chunhui Temple, and the other 50 acres are used as trial farming for the women's school. Another 10,000 taels will be used to build a women's hall, a student's dormitory, and a gentleman's dormitory. another ten thousand taels for the preparation of all kinds of utensils, seeds, books, and so on. ”

Jiang Ruoning nodded: "Okay, I will give you the silver, the first female hall master will be served by you, you don't have to be the hall master in the future, you must train a female nun who can take over this position; The lord of the seven counties and the third grandmother of the river held the position of deputy hall master. As for the required gentleman, it will be hired by you through mutual consultation, and if there is no suitable person, the main palace will return to the capital, and you can choose the grandmother and the elder palace from the six palaces to come and serve as it. ”

Luo was stunned, "Princess, can a courtier be the deputy hall master?" ”

"You learn first, if you really can't do it, go back to the River clan, and ask the clan elders to elect a woman who can take office to serve as a part-time person, but the condition is that this person must be capable, otherwise it is better to lack than abuse."

When Miss Mu heard that Jiang Ruoning was going to open a girls' school, she went home and told Mrs. Mu that Mrs. Mu was also interested, so she quickly joined in, and after discussing and discussing, she made mellow revisions to the original charter.

Shang Huan is responsible for painting the design of the women's school, Cui Qian, Xiao Ma, Xiao Deng, Cui Leng and others can also help, there are those who help buy fields, Mr. Feng Shui's site selection, etc., and they have to set up a shop in the county, which will be used to sell embroidery, fruits and vegetables, pastries and other things for the disciples of the women's school in the future, and Jiang Ruoning promised that after it was done, she would help open up the sales channels in Fengtianfu and Beijing, on the condition that these embroidery, fruits and vegetables must ensure the quality.

Fruits and vegetables cannot be sold fresh, but they can be made into fruits and dried fruits; The same is true for vegetables, you can ask an experienced Qingxi County woman to make pickled products and other things. The money earned is used to support the disciples of the women's school, and so on, so that more women in Qingxi County can learn a skill and be literate at the same time.

Within a few days, the people of Qingxi County heard that Princess Fengge was going to build a "women's school" next to Chunhui Temple to accept female students, and also heard that this women's school does not charge tuition, it can be used for food and housing, and everyone can not only read and write, but also learn skills. Before it even started, many families with daughters began to inquire.

Night, silence.

In the blink of an eye, it will be the period of Qiqi, and after burning Qiqi, Jiang Ruoning will also embark on the return journey.

On the second day of the fifth month, it was the auspicious day of the wedding of Xue Yulan and the crown prince Murong Qi, Jiang Ruoning could only bless from afar, poured half a cup of wine, and faced the direction of the capital, "Yulan, second brother, I wish you happiness!" ”

When he left Beijing, he only knew about the marriage, but he didn't know the auspicious date set by the two.

I wanted to rush back, but I thought that the Jiang family raised her, and she had to go back after the period of Qiqi, what she could do for the Jiang family was to burn Qiqi, and she couldn't wear filial piety.

The Lord of the Seven Counties was holding a tray with a new dim sum made by Ling Cook, "Cousin Feng Ge, the family has newly bought a chef from Fengtianfu, and she is the best at making dim sum, you can try it." ”

Jiang Ruoning took one and took a bite, "It's not bad." ”

The Seven County Lord bit his lip, "Cousin, thank you!" ”

"What?" Jiang Ruoning pretended not to understand.

The seven county lords said half-coquettishly: "The heads of the Tang family and the Qian family were all imprisoned in Fengtianfu, and it was the Fengtianfu arrester with an official letter asking Mu County to send someone to get it, and early this morning, the heads of the two families were escorted to Fengtianfu." ”

Jiang Ruoning has heard the most recently about the case of the seduction of officials and businessmen in Fengtianfu, the Qincha on the surface seems to be the king of Guangping, not long after Jiang Ruoning arrived in Qingxi County, even the king of Guangping was calculated by the officials and wealthy businessmen of Fengtianfu, these people only took the king of Guangping, and never thought that just half a month ago, the situation in Fengtianfu suddenly became wonderful, that is, on the third day after Jiang Ruoning gave the idea to the lord of the seven counties, standing in the shadows, the true Qincha with the holy decree appeared-Yongxing waiting for Murong Lian!

As soon as he appeared, he directly led his troops to take down Fengtianfu Tong Governor and Zheng Taishou. These two people, one in charge of the people and the other in charge of the soldiers, colluded with the merchants of Fengtianfu, and began to control prices and manipulate the market more than two years ago, and Si's brother Si Fujia was the core figure in the process.
