Zhao Ruxi smiled slightly: "If Your Highness really wants to be angry, it is not too late to enter the palace to talk about it after the ranking of the county exam is announced, and the articles on the test paper come out." ”

Princess Shangde's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands and said, "Yes, yes, I have this intention." ”

If she goes again after the county examination, no one can say that she interfered with the imperial examination. She doesn't fight for Zhao Ruxi's case, anyway, the future will be long, and gold will never be buried. But it's no problem to go to the emperor and give Zhang Li some eye medicine.

After the exam, the top few articles always have to be copied out, and when the time comes, she will take these articles into the palace and let the emperor come up to judge. If the emperor also thinks that Zhao Ruxi's article is good, then the effect of this eye medicine will be even better.

Zhao Ruxi saw that both of them swept away the decadence just now, and his mood improved.

The reason why she is confident that Xiao Qi will correct her name after reading her article is because her article is aimed at the current social situation.

After all, she came from the next generation, and she is still a social animal with a high degree of education, and she can see some political ills that the Dajin people can't see clearly in the bureau, and she can see them at a glance and give certain solutions.

Because it is a county test, her article will not talk about the overall situation, but start from the subtleties, which will not be too abrupt and give people the feeling of overexertion. But whether in terms of idea or the depth of the article, she is confident that she is better than many candidates.

Half a year ago, in terms of culture and literature, she was only different from the obstacles of this era. In modern times, whether it is an argumentative essay in high school or writing an essay after college, it is just to put forward a point of view, argue a point of view, and draw a conclusion, and the argumentation method used is the same. The only difference is that one is in the vernacular, and the other is in classical Chinese.

When she memorized and understood dozens or hundreds of classical Chinese, and persistently wrote articles in classical Chinese in the past six months, she had already used classical Chinese freely and was able to write brilliant classical Chinese.

However, her high-level view of the overall situation, political acumen, and novel and unique insights are lacking in the candidates of this era.

This is her confidence and confidence in participating in the imperial examination.

If her article is compared with the political officials who were admitted to the Jinshi and have been in the officialdom for a while, she dare not say that she is better than others. But compared with a rookie who is not even a showman, she is still very confident.

The matter was settled, and she had something else to say.

She bowed her head slightly, her face full of shame: "However, even if I am admitted to the Juren and Jinshi, in the end, I am afraid that I will still be ashamed of His Royal Highness's maintenance and Cui Fuzi's high hopes and expectations." ”

She raised her head, her beautiful eyes full of apology and sincerity: "Because I don't dare to guarantee that I will really be admitted to Xiucai, Juren, and Jinshi, and I can also serve the imperial court all my life like those male candidates, and then die." I am not suitable for officialdom, I just want to simply draw and study. So after I get admitted to Jinshi, I may be an official for a while, but in the end, I will return to the life I want to live. ”

She glanced at Mrs. Cui: "These words were also said to Master Cui when I promised to participate in the imperial examination. ”

In a modern social system, she is reluctant to pursue a career in office. In this ancient time, where imperial power, privileges are above all else, and she has to grovel everywhere, it is even more impossible for her to mix with officialdom.

In his previous life, he lived a hard life, and as a result, he died. Finally picked up a life, in this life she just wants to paint, make some money, and do whatever she wants.

She can't live for others, and carry the weight forward for the sake of the road.

She promised Mrs. Cui to participate in the imperial examination, and if possible, she might also be an official for a period of time, but she would not continue to do so. When the situation settles down, she will return to herself and live the life she wants to live.

As soon as she heard this, Mrs. Cui sighed.

However, she couldn't say anything to Zhao Ruxi.

If Zhao Ruxi is just smart and can only read, she can still persuade her. But now Zhao Ruxi has obviously reached a height that ordinary people can't reach in painting, and his achievements in painting are even higher.

If she persuaded Zhao Ruxi to give up painting and become an official, and give up the broad road to walk a road full of thorns that women had never walked, she might end up with broken bones, she couldn't say it.

Who should be a victim and sacrifice everything for those who come after him?

Even if Zhao Ruxi was willing, Mrs. Cui couldn't agree.

Is it too selfish to let a great painter who can be famous for the ages sacrifice himself for women?

In addition, if Zhao Ruxi made a sacrifice, will the women be grateful? No, not only will they not be grateful and will not understand, but they will spit on her, despise her for showing her face, and not obey women's morals. At that time, the people who attack her the most are probably women.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Cui couldn't help but smile bitterly.

She said: "Zhiwei, your choice is right. Although I would love to change the situation of women, this is not something that you can change by taking a career in office. There are thousands of roads, not just to be an official. You can draw good pictures and become a great painter who will be famous for centuries, and you can set an example for women. I am very touched that you can still participate in the imperial examination with such achievements as you have now. ”

"What's more, you have given us an idea to run a newspaper so that women can see more articles that change their minds, and you have done a better job than me in changing the situation of women. Shame on the word, where to start? ”

The eldest princess of Shangde laughed on the side: "Okay, don't push it off, you are all excellent." ”

She looked at Zhao Ruxi, her eyes shining: "Zhiwei, the idea you gave us to run a newspaper is very good." Do you have any other ideas? ”

Mrs. Cui was in good spirits and looked at Zhao Ruxi expectantly.

On this issue, Zhao Ruxi also has something to say to them.

"The economic base determines the superstructure," she said. I think that only when women have a certain financial resource, can support themselves, support their children, and even earn more money in the family than men, and become the financial support of a family, her backbone can be straight, and she will have the right to speak in the family. This is the real way to improve the status of women in society. ”

"You're so right." Mrs. Cui couldn't help but high-five and screamed.

She has been running a girls' academy for so many years, and at first she was full of enthusiasm, thinking that she could improve the knowledge level of women through the education of the academy and let them change their destiny.

But she found that the girls' academy could not change the situation of the women. Those who can enter the women's academy to study only use it as a bargaining chip for a woman's marriage and a tool for advancement. Those who really want to change their fate through this can't enter the girls' academy. This is an irresolvable contradiction.

Over the years, she has become more and more suspicious of the meaning of the existence of the girls' academy.

But if she had to come up with a better way, she couldn't think of it.

Now Zhao Ruxi's words woke up the dreamer with a word.

"So what are we going to do?" She eagerly asked, "It's not enough to just run a newspaper, how can we make more women money?" ”
