Middle Palace.

Under the bright moonlight, Queen Rong sat alone under the blooming Xifu begonia tree in the atrium, holding a notebook in her hand.

The evening breeze blows, and the pink and white petals fall on the title page of the notebook.

Empress Rong lowered her eyes, just like every notebook, and the title page of this volume also had that poem written:

Suddenly, the palace tile came out of the new blue, and I liked the begonia Shu Xiaohong.

Two lines of poetry, to be exact.

Two sentences, with different handwriting and content, poems.

Duanxiu's hairpin is the handwriting of the owner of the note.

The other line of handwriting is much inferior, and the pen is completely disorganized, like the scribble of a beginner.

In this verse, there is a name embedded in it.

Shu Tang.

Jiang Shutang.

Empress Taizu Jiang.

Empress Rong looked at the notebook, and her cold eyes gradually softened.

Before the crossing, her understanding of ancient women is extremely limited, historians believe that in the feudal society where men are inferior to women, women are mostly ignorant reproductive machines, and occasionally there is a shock, the root of which is also the men who are attached to them.

In history books, women are too weak, and in online texts, women are too strong.

She thinks that ancient women should not be the vague figures under their husbands' surnames in history books, nor are they those strange people in online texts who often combine various skills such as literature, martial arts, and medical skills.

Even though men are inferior to women, even if education has not been opened, women in ancient times were also human beings, people with flesh and blood, thoughts and souls.

Therefore, at that time, Rong Ying occasionally glimpsed a TV series adapted from a popular IP in addition to her busy work, and she was never interested.

The girls in the company are all keen to follow dramas......

The girls in the company......

Empress Rong was suddenly in a trance.

I don't know what happened to her little assistant who was a little confused.

Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that it had been twenty years since she had traveled here.

If the speed of time in the two worlds is the same, then it will be twenty years later.

The little assistant she remembered in her vague memory, who had just graduated, was already in her forties......

Parents, brother and sister-in-law, boss, and......

Empress Rong was stunned for a moment, suppressing the noisy memory in the depths of her mind, and forcing herself to set her eyes on the notes.

Slowly, her mind calmed down, and her eyes softened.

Modern historians and online writers probably can't imagine that there is such an interesting woman in the old-fashioned feudal society.

She is a noble daughter born in Gaomen, the founding queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and her words and deeds are worthy of being a model for women.

She is also a girl who fled with the domestic servant, and after she came to the door and retired from the marriage letter of the high family, she had no parents' orders and no matchmaker's words, and resolutely married the domestic servant in the troubled times of displacement and the flames of war.

Queen Jiang.

In other words, it is the Empress Jiang who is well known to the people of the Great Zhou.

If it weren't for the coincidence that she opened these notes, her understanding of Empress Jiang would have been limited to Si.

But when she opened the notes, she saw an interesting man.

For example, on the page she opened at this time, the hairpin lettering like the title page reads:

In the eighth year of Zhaode, March 15.

In the afternoon, Yu urged Arou to learn words, Arou refused to comply, asked again and again, and replied: Niangniang has training, and a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and the slave does not dare to disobey.

Yu Guaner: The words of women without talent are ancient, and the queens of all dynasties have to give instructions.

However, if you look at the past dynasties, how many queens have no ink on their chests? How many queens don't invite the princess to the west?

You should know that this is not to be obeyed.

Ah Rou heard the rest of the words, thought about it for a long time, and finally wrote as usual.

I was very relieved.

……

Empress Rong closed the notes and sighed softly.

Therefore, what she said in the Xuanzheng Hall today, "This palace thinks that Queen Jiang's training should be that women are not talented and are virtuous, and women are even more virtuous", which is not a gratuitous distortion and misinterpretation.

Set up a women's school, and she finally did it.

From the concubine of the declining Hou Mansion step by step to today, gradually gaining fame, wealth, and posteriority, when she got those, although she also had a sense of accomplishment, it was far less than today's feeling.

Because, those are what other women in this plane can do.

Only if there is a female school, only she can do it.

She comes from a civilized society thousands of years later, which is her unspeakable loneliness and her deepest pride.

Now that you know what's better......

Then, as a traverser, the most meaningful way to live is naturally to try to improve within the social laws here and within the scope of one's own ability.

Naturally, after the passage of the court's proposal, there were still many obstacles to the establishment of women's schools.

She will continue to walk until she achieves her goal.

Thinking of this, Queen Rong stood up, looked up at the delicate begonia flowers in the moonlight, and remembered the woman on the portrait of the hanging temple, and there was a moment of sparkling.

Yiren is more delicate than flowers.

Begonia flowers bloom every year, and the flower tree can no longer wait for its owner to plant it.

Did Emperor Taizu write the poems on the title page with Empress Jiang, or did Emperor Taizu remember the Yiren after Empress Jiang left?

She is an unhappy queen......

So, what about Queen Jiang?

Queen Rong was out of her mind for a while, and slowly walked back to the middle palace, removing her makeup and freshening up as usual.

After all, there was such a big movement today, and although the female officials who were waiting for them were trying to maintain their composure, Empress Rong could easily sense their irrepressible excitement.

She turned a blind eye on her face, and was as cold as ever.

In fact, it is quite happy in my heart.

It wasn't until after going to bed that the mood of the day gradually calmed down, and Queen Rong realized that she was unwell.

She got up and walked towards the room next to the clean room at the back of the dormitory.

After the queen walked out of the palace, the little palace maid who was waiting outside had saluted and planned to clean up as usual.

Strangely enough, the queen stood in front of the door, unmoved or spoken for a long time.

The little palace maids could only bow their heads and kneel in sorrow.

After a long time, the queen brushed her sleeves and left.

When the queen was far away, the little palace maids got up and walked into the clean room, but they were surprised to see that the water in Gong's bucket was still clear.

……

The carriage of the palace in the north of the town drove leisurely for most of the day, and stopped in front of a grange in the night.

The main family has not been here for several years, and as soon as he came, the noble master came, and the stewards and mothers-in-law in the Zhuangzi stood at the door and waited, inevitably a little nervous.

This is the Shaofu Gongzhong Grange.

To put it in more detail, it is the farmland of the Shao family's disabled old department purchased by Gongzhong.

At first glance, this sounds a little weird.

Because, the Zhou people mostly make a living by plowing the fields, and the farmland and cattle are to the Zhou people, which is like horses and sheep to the Liao people, which is related to the livelihood of the whole family and is more important than life.

The Liao people will not kill horses until they are at the end of the road, and the Zhou people will not sell their fields until they are cornered.

Therefore, when a peasant household encounters misfortune, the family that takes the opportunity to buy its land will be criticized for "being rich and unkind, taking advantage of the danger of others".

What the Shao family did seemed to be exactly that.
