Chapter 1251: Reaction

"My nephew arranged for my second aunt to be the vice principal of the Five Cities Academy, so I naturally have a good intention."

Yun Xi said: "Although my nephew is also the principal of the Five Cities Academy, he still has to deal with the government on weekdays, and he doesn't have many times to deal with general affairs, so these things can only be handed over to others. ”

Now Chen Ji is the secretary of the Five Cities Academy. It's not that the nephew can't believe Chen Ji, it's just that Chen Ji is a civil official after all, and some things may not be the same as what the nephew thinks. In fact, Chen Ji is not very suitable for the post of secretary of the Wucheng Academy, he is like Chen Xingshan, and he is suitable to be sent to a yamen like the General Political Department as an official. It's just that the nephew is trustworthy and has some qualifications, but he doesn't hold an important position, and only Chen Ji can only arrange him. ”

"It's my nephew who wants to arrange a vice principal. This vice principal doesn't need to directly manage too many things, but Chen Ji's handling has to be taken a look, and if something is found to be inappropriate, communicate with Chen Ji to correct it. ”

But the nephew thought about it and couldn't think of a suitable candidate. Since Chen Ji is already a literati, he can only choose another military general or clan. But there are many noble children in the Five Cities Academy, and most of them will be biased when arranging a military general; And the children of the clan, "Yun Xi did not continue to explain, of course the princess of Ke Ning Kingdom understood his concerns: this is a minister that Yun Xi has cultivated for himself or his son, and he does not want to be interfered with by other vassal kings.

"So the nephew thought about it, and only the second aunt was suitable. First, the second aunt and uncle have always been very upright, and the nephew can trust you. "Mei Yin, no matter how timid or fearful, has never been impartial in the various struggles between the DPRK and China anyway, and neither faction participates; Princess Ning Guo is even more cautious, and she is good friends with all her brothers and sisters, but only friends.

"Second, when my nephew asked the second aunt to be the principal of the girls' school, he said: 'The second aunt has a resolute personality and is hard-working, which is exactly what the nobles and officials of the Ming Dynasty lack. May the second aunt set an example. 'My nephew asked the second aunt to be the vice principal of the Five Cities School this time, and this is also the reason. ”

"Third, there are thirteen clan children in this school. Although the nephew instructed them to treat them equally, except for Chen Ji, the rest of the secretaries may not be able to do it. The nephew wants the second aunt to control them more, so as not to ruin the reputation of the royal family. ”

"But the official family," Princess Ningguo was too surprised to call Yun Xi's name, and when she came back to her senses, of course she had to be more respectful: "I am a woman, and the students of the Five Cities Academy are all men, so it is not suitable." ”

"That's good." Yun Xi continued: "As a woman, the second aunt must be different from men, and she may be able to find things that men can't detect, which is more beneficial to being in charge of the school." ”

"And," Yun Xi paused here and continued, "[Jianye] five years after his nephew returned from Annam, he belittled Zhu Lixue and encouraged the widow to remarry. My purpose is to make women no longer completely confined to the boudoir. If the second aunt can be the vice principal of the Five Cities Academy, it will definitely promote the achievement of my goals. ”

"Moreover, the second aunt is a princess, and she is different from ordinary women; The Five Cities School is not a school of the imperial court but a private school, and even if the courtiers want to impeach, they have nowhere to start, so it is just the right thing to do. ”

"Since the official family said so, I will be the vice principal of this Five Cities Academy." Princess Ning Guo said. She was moved by Yun Hee's sentence 'Let women no longer be completely confined to the boudoir', and decided to stand up and support Yun Hee's idea.

"Thank you, second aunt."

……

……

Listening to Princess Ningguo's words, Chen Ji fell silent. Princess Ningguo naturally couldn't repeat Yun Xi's words, and she couldn't say it too bluntly, but Chen Ji understood what she meant, and realized that it was unlikely that His Majesty would take back the order.

No matter what, I'm going to give advice! But Chen Ji still thought in his heart.

However, since it is unlikely that he will let Yun Xi take back the order, and he will not resign because his boss is a woman-first, because he is conscientious, and secondly, because Princess Ningguo is a princess, she is different from ordinary women--I have to talk to Princess Ningguo about the Wucheng Academy.

"Now the gentlemen for each course have been selected and have started to take classes. The class presidents of the three classes and the two student union officers have been elected to assist the subordinates and the secretary in handling general affairs. ”

Chen Ji introduced the things in the Five Cities School in detail. Princess Ning Guo pondered for a moment and said, "There are a total of fifty students in the entire academy, including thirteen of the clan's disciples; But I only saw that the three squad leaders and the two officers only had one clan child, and it seemed that the clan children were not very popular. ”

"The first emperor was extremely spoiled by the children of the clan when he was there, and he was extremely harsh on the nobles, because most of the children of the clan were tyrannical and domineering, and there were very few people who were too domineering, and most of the children of the nobles had a bad impression of the clan. I don't dare to offend on weekdays, but this time the squad leader and officers voted anonymously, so ......" Chen Ji told the truth.

"In this case, I must rectify them well, and I must not let them only discredit the royal family." Princess Ning Guo said.

They talked for a while, noon had passed, Princess Ning Guo stood up and walked to the window to look outside, but there was no one in sight, she turned her head and said to Chen Ji: "How to manage the Five Cities Academy, I will go back and think about it, and I will come back in the future." Matters on weekdays are handled by the secretary, but every disposition must be recorded. ”

"Yes, Vice Chancellor." Chen Ji's face remained unchanged and agreed.

Early in the morning of the second day, Chen Ji finished the affairs of the Wucheng Academy, left the school and came to the gate of the imperial city, took out an object and said to the guards: "The common man Chen Ji asked to see Your Majesty, this is the waist card given to me by Your Majesty." Although he is no longer an official, his waist card for entering and leaving the imperial city has not been withdrawn. This is one of the reasons why he is believed to still be valued by Yoon-hee.

He came here to advise Yun Xi about Princess Ning Guo's appointment as the vice principal of the Five Cities Academy. He wanted to play a fold, but just as he was about to write it, he suddenly felt that it was difficult to explain such a thing clearly, so he decided to ask Yun Xi to admonish him in person.

"Chen, Mr. Chen can naturally enter and leave the Imperial City. But His Majesty had already left the palace early in the morning, and Mr. Chen would not be able to see His Majesty even if he entered the palace. The guard said.

"Your Majesty left the palace early in the morning?" Chen Ji repeated. Today is the 15th day of February, and there is no need to go to court, and the emperor can indeed leave the palace at this time. However, "What is Your Majesty doing when you leave the palace so early?" ”

……

……

"The plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning, although it is only two quarters now, but you look at this thousand miles of fertile land, everywhere is already the figure of farmers." At this time, on the outskirts of the capital, Yun Xi stood on a high slope, pointed to the field not far away, and said to the people beside him.
