Liu Xin said without thinking: "Of course Miss Yueying can continue her studies, what is there to doubt about this?" ”

Huang Chengyan hesitated for a moment and said, "Yueying, she is getting older, and it is inconvenient to mix with those boys again, so the grass people ......."

Because Huang Yueying is his only daughter, Huang Chengyan has always cultivated this daughter as a boy and has high hopes for her. Just now, for the sake of the future of the Huang family, Huang Chengyan did not hesitate to sacrifice his daughter's studies, and instead fought for the children of the Huang family to win places in several academies. In order to convince himself, when he hesitated, Huang Chengyan also found a reason, that is, his daughter is older, and it is not suitable to study with boys.

People's thoughts are sometimes very strange, and this thought grows like weeds in Huang Chengyan's heart, and he feels more and more that his daughter can't continue to study in the academy, otherwise she will be looked down upon by the Liu family.

Although it has been more than ten years since he came to this era of male superiority and inferiority, Liu Xin's thinking has not been affected too much, and even if he is affected, Ma Yun will not let him go, so Liu Xin has not considered this problem at all. Of course, both Liu Xin and Ma Yun know that if they want to pay attention to the equality of men and women in this era, it is tantamount to a fool's dream, so they did not deliberately want to change this situation, they could only go with the flow.

However, in Liu Xin's impression, Huang Chengyan should be a relatively enlightened person, but he didn't expect him to have such thoughts, so he couldn't help but look him up and down for a long time, and then said: "Liu has heard the gentleman of the academy say many times that Miss Yueying is very good, and it would be a pity if she gave up her studies like this." Anyway, Yueying is still young now, so let's continue to study in the academy for a few more years. ”

Huang Chengyan is now very entangled in whether his daughter will continue her studies, and after listening to Liu Xin's words, he was relieved and said: "Everything is according to the orders of the adults, and the grass people will go back home and listen to Yueying's lectures." ”

Liu Xin also smiled and waved his hand, and said, "With Mr. Chen's great talent, the first principal of the Cannan Academy is none other than Mr. Leek." Five years later, I hope that the Chanan Academy under the leadership of Mr. Wang will be able to send a few outstanding students to the college. ”

Back in the backyard, Liu Xin told Ma Yun about Huang Chengyan's intention today, Ma Yun's heart suddenly lit up, and said: "Husband, I have an idea to set up a women's academy in Chang'an, so that all the smart girls in the world can study and do learning." ”

Liu Xin laughed and said: "You have a good idea, then establish Chang'an Girls' School, and then you will be the first principal, and let Zhao Ji and the others become teachers." Our daughter will be able to have a few more friends by then. ”

Ma Yun glanced at Liu Xin and said, "You know how to oppress us women, can you still give a lecture now that I am like this?" There is definitely no hope this year, and when you sit in the world, I will pay more attention to my words and deeds, I can't do this principal. However, I always feel a little uneasy, I am afraid that something will happen when I go to Chang'an this time. ”

Liu Xin suddenly put away her smiling face, and said, "I have figured it out in the past few days, and I should be a better person." Now I occupy most of the world, the soldiers are strong, and the people are also determined. The time, place and people are all right, there is no need to play false, I have already decided, as soon as I arrive in Chang'an City, I will directly announce my ascension to the throne and become the emperor! ”

Ma Yun was taken aback, and said repeatedly: "Haven't they all been arranged?" At that time, people from all walks of life will come out to persuade them to enter, and if you directly announce the news of the emperor, will it catch everyone off guard? And if you act so urgently, will it affect your reputation among those noble families? ”

Liu Xin sneered: "Those scholar families are most concerned about the interests of their own families, and even characters like Huang Chengyan do not hesitate to put down their bodies and beg me for the sake of the interests of their families." Therefore, reputation is only a superficial thing for those noble families, and interests are the most important thing. Besides, in the future, the Han world will definitely not be able to rely on these scholar families, and I am trying to gradually weaken their power, so there is no need to care about their opinions. ”

The current situation is different from when Liu Xin first arrived in Xiangyang, in the entire Han world, except for Liu Xin, only Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are left, and Liu Xin wants to dominate the world, and he is bound to have a fierce battle with these two.

Yuan Cao and the others each controlled a puppet emperor, and as long as Liu Xin used troops against them, they could declare Liu Xin to the outside world at any time, so as to occupy the moral high ground. If you want to solve such a dilemma, the best way is for Liu Xin to proclaim himself emperor or, like Cao Yuan and the others, to support another puppet emperor. Since it was a two-choice situation, Liu Xin of course decided to be the emperor himself.

In this case, the strategy of "building a high wall, accumulating grain, and slowly becoming king" can no longer adapt to the development of the situation, so Ma Yun also supports Liu Xin's claim to be emperor, but she didn't expect Liu Xin to be the emperor herself.

Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "Fu Zhu and Xu Huang have been secretly preparing for this matter for a long time, and you are also clear about this. Now that you have suddenly declared yourself emperor, will you disrupt their original deployment and complicate things? I think it's better to talk to them first. ”

Liu Xin suddenly took out a big Han Express from behind him, shook it in front of Ma Yun, and said, "Yes, they have been secretly doing this. However, do you think that such a big thing, and involving so many people, can it still be called a secret? You see that in this Dahan Express, there are many articles of persuasion, and there is no lack of Qiao Xuan's appeal. ”

Ma Yun hesitated: "Husband, are you worried that someone will cause trouble in the ceremony they have prepared?" ”

Liu Xin nodded and said, "I'm sure that no matter how good I do, there will be many people who don't want me to ascend the throne and become emperor." Moreover, I believe very much in your sixth sense, and since you think something will happen, then I believe that it is very likely that it will happen. If my guess is correct, the arrangement of the frustration has been detected by those with ulterior motives, and it is likely that they have done a bad job in the enthronement ceremony. ”

Ma Yun suddenly laughed and said, "I think you are too cautious, even if they oppose you as emperor, what can they do?" At that time, the surroundings must be tightly controlled, and it is impossible for things like bows and crossbows to appear on the scene, and there are no bombs in this era, so safety should not be a problem. ”

Liu Xin shook his head and said: "I naturally don't have to worry about safety, what I'm worried about is that some people will regard themselves as loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, and when the time comes, if there is something about suicide and martyrdom at the ceremony, won't it ruin everyone's good mood." ”

After a pause, Liu Xin said again: "I just want to surprise this time, so that the plans carefully prepared by these people are useless." ”

Ma Yun thought for a while and said with a smile: "In this way, I'm afraid that there is no use in frustrating their preparations." ”

Liu Xin also smiled: "I can't say that, at least I can frustrate them to continue to prepare, so that I can attract the attention of these people, and it will be smoother on my side." ”

Ma Yun was also relieved, and said: "It's just that I'm frustrated with them, and I'm still in the dark by you, and it's all useless to be busy." ”

"Actually, I didn't mean to hide it from them, if it weren't for you saying that you felt a little uneasy, I wouldn't have made this temporary change." Liu Xin waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this, I'll improvise when the time comes." By the way, how is Liu Bang, this little guy, doing now, do you want to take him to the house for two days? ”

Even though Liu Bei is dead, the person in charge of monitoring Liu Bang still does not relax in the slightest, and Liu Xin will receive a secret report from the phantom every morning and afternoon, so Liu Xin's words are simply knowingly asked.

Although Liu Bang is the "eldest son" of Liu Xin and Ma Yun, when it comes to close relationship, Liu Xin and Ma Yun's "parents" are far inferior to Liu Bei in Liu Bang's eyes. Therefore, when the news of Liu Bei's death reached Xiangyang, Liu Bang cried a lot, and he is still in a trance. When Liu Xin saw this report, he was even more sure that he had done the right thing for Liu Bei as soon as possible.

Although Liu Bang is still just a child, it is very helpless to involve him in political struggles and be hurt. But after more than ten years, Liu Xin's mind has been extremely firm. If Liu Bang was his biological son, it would naturally be another matter, but Liu Bang was not his son at all, so Liu Xin did not hesitate at all. People who do big things can't be mothers-in-law.

But Ma Yun is a woman after all, and she is the mother of two children, and the third child is about to be born. After knowing Liu Bang's situation, the overflowing maternal love made Ma Yun always a little unbearable about Liu Bang's experience. Therefore, Liu Xincai proposed to take Liu Bang to live in the house for a few days, just to take care of Ma Yun's feelings.

Ma Yun lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "Liu Bang is actually like a blank piece of paper, but it was stained by Liu Bei. No matter whose child he is, he is not at fault. In fact, it is also strange to people, if we could have cared more about him and taken care of him more when he was just rescued, maybe he would not have been so close to Liu Bei. It's better to listen to you, take him into the house to live, and let him go with us when he moves to Chang'an, so that he can take care of it. ”

With the death of Liu Chong, his daughter and son-in-law, the secret of Liu Bang's life experience was completely brought into the coffin, no matter how powerful the phantom secret spy is, there is no way to find out that Liu Bang is actually Liu Chong's grandson. Liu Xin and Ma Yun always thought that Liu Bang was just an orphan that Liu Chong found somewhere, thinking that he was forced to leave his parents just after he was born, it was really pitiful. So, Liu Xin nodded and said, "That's fine, you can look at the arrangement." ”
