Chapter 194: Kun Division
"Are you sure you want to give up this contract?" Emperor Guangzhao pretended to be a little sorry and asked Yan Hao and Yan Yuan, but he was so happy in his heart that he almost wanted to jump up.
It seems that Guang'an Hou is really scheming! She knew that they would not dare to sign such a contract, but in order to convince them of their refusal, she agreed to hold such a meeting. In this way, the meeting between the kings of the three countries not only peacefully resolved the demands of the Gong State and Zhang Si State, but also gave them a warning -- do not think that your country is very unsafe, as long as your country does not do its own evil, we will definitely not touch you at will, but as long as your country is slightly negligent, we will still take it all and show no mercy.
Yan Hao and Yan Yuan failed to seek the benefit of their country this time, but ended up slapping themselves in the face, and they were also sad and angry, but they didn't dare to attack in front of Emperor Guangzhao, so they had to nod respectfully.
"I just said, everyone gets along well, what kind of contract do you want? How hurtful and infuriating! Hahaha! Emperor Guangzhao said with a smile on his face.
Shen Xizhen didn't show up today, she knew that if she appeared today, she would definitely be regarded as a thorn in the side by Yan Hao and Yan Yuan, so she applied to Emperor Guangzhao early to follow up the construction project of the women's school in various districts of the capital. At the same time, she also sent people to various districts to post announcements recruiting female gentlemen, and prepared that she and Chu Zihou would interview them in person at the Universiade Hall three days later.
Due to the relaxed age limit, there were many more applicants that day than Xizhen expected.
When I interviewed them, I learned that many of them were from other provinces. It turned out that two months ago, they got the news that girls' schools were being built all over the country. I also knew that there would be quite a lot of female gentlemen, so many people wanted to be treated well in the capital, so they came all the way here.
But Xizhen was immediately alerted to this phenomenon. Immediately expressed his stance - those who have already started a family still have to go back to their hometown, and only those who have not married can not be limited to the territory, this policy is also to buffer the phenomenon that women who have a family cannot take care of their families, so as to avoid causing family disharmony.
At the same time, Shen Xizhen also proposed to Emperor Guangzhao that the teaching salary of female gentlemen should be the same as that of male teachers, because only in this way can the wish of 'equality before education' be realized.
Emperor Guangzhao thought about it and felt that although he was a little unhappy. But it was unreasonable to refute, so he agreed.
A month later, the girls' schools opened on time, just like the other schools.
Shen Xizhen immediately applied to Emperor Guangzhao for the establishment of the Kun Division.
"This is a department dedicated to solving the problems faced by women. The most important thing is to deal with women's marriage, family, education, and health issues. Xi Zhen explained to Emperor Guangzhao.
Looking at the history of the Xi Kingdom, she has never seen any dynasty set up a department dedicated to dealing with women's issues, but she knows that it is necessary, and only with such a department can many of women's demands find effective solutions. It can also allow their psychological pressure to be truly channeled.
Emperor Guangzhao was shocked after hearing this. Of course, he also felt that she was right, and that the status of women should indeed be promoted, but he was worried that as soon as he agreed, he would gain more and more for the benefit of women.
Shen Xizhen immediately saw his thoughts, so she said: "The emperor can rest assured, the courtiers are not people who do not accept good things and do not know how to advance and retreat. But if it does. It not only helps women, but also a family. ”
That's true. Emperor Guangzhao thought about it several more times, and finally decided to give it a try, but he asked Empress Gina to be the person in charge, and Shen Xizhen to be the deputy.
This is exactly what Shen Xizhen meant, she originally wanted to recommend Queen Gina as the person in charge, because only when a country is also actively concerned about women's issues in the future, people from all over the country will pay attention to it, so it is the most convincing for Queen Gina to be the leader.
When Emperor Guangzhao informed Empress Gina of this news, Empress Gina was surprised and delighted, surprised that Xizhen actually thought of setting up such a department of great significance for a female woman, and was happy that Xizhen was willing to hand over this honor and important responsibility to her, which was equivalent to helping her better establish the queen's prestige among the people of Xi Kingdom, so Gina admired and thanked Shen Xizhen from the bottom of her heart.
"Since Guang'anhou knows how to be sympathetic to people's hearts so much, then the concubine should be the best, but although there are concubines taking the lead, I'm afraid that many details still have to be assisted by Guang'anhou." Empress Gina said to Emperor Guangzhao.
"Don't worry, the queen has already asked her to go back and write a detailed list of functions and divisions, and the affairs involved in it will be clearly divided at that time, of course, there must be a part of it that requires everyone's cooperation." Emperor Guangzhao stroked Empress Gina's hair and said.
Since she was pregnant, Gina looked even better than before, and every time Emperor Guangzhao looked at her, he would have a strong love from the bottom of his heart.
"Well, that's of course, to be honest, this building of Guang'an Hou will definitely win the hearts of the people, if the last time the women's school was built, it would anger the men, but the establishment of this department can help their families, so it will definitely be widely supported." Queen Gina said with a sweet smile.
"Of course, if it weren't for the long-term benefits, how could Guang'anhou bring it up? Although she is only nineteen years old now, she is already like a human spirit, and our Hou'er has a really good vision, hahaha! Emperor Guangzhao laughed.
Two days later, Xizhen submitted a plan to Emperor Guangzhao on the distribution of the functions of the Kun Division.
She preliminarily divided the Kun Division into four major parts - marriage, family, education, and health, which were in charge of her and Queen Gina, and in each piece, two highly respected, shrewd and capable women who were competent for this work would be in charge, and they would sort out the problems they took over and hand them over to Shen Xizhen and Queen Gina for instructions, and asked that the matter of the day be solved as much as possible on the same day.
Emperor Guangzhao was very satisfied with her plan, and immediately ordered a large room to be vacated on the west side of the Ministry of Internal Affairs as the office of the Kun Division, and personally waved a pen and wrote a plaque, and chose a good day and auspicious day to be officially established.
From then on, Shen Xizhen was not only the imperial military and piano master of Emperor Guangzhao, but also the deputy minister of the Kun Division, and his daily work was full.
And Chu Zihou was also named the advisor of the Ministry of Industry by Emperor Guangzhao for his superb water control ability, which was another position that did not exist in the history of the Xi Kingdom, but it was very worthy of the name for Chu Zihou, so he was very happy.
