Chapter 238: Breaking the Game

Everything was settled, but Yongning didn't feel relaxed at all. The rumors outside have not stopped, but there is a trend of intensifying, even the resignation of Fang Fang Xuanling has been rumored to be a retreat as an advance, and even with Fang Zhizhi, he is frequently picked by the eggs of the imperial history.

And the black hand behind all this doesn't even have to guess, everyone knows that this must be the eldest grandson Wuji is retaliating. But even if he knew that he was retaliating, it was difficult for people to deal with it for a while. In fact, Yongning understands that the eldest grandson Wuji is fighting so hard this time, but he is afraid that he has the idea of fighting chickens and eggs, even if Fang Xuanling "loses" to the position of prime minister and pulls him down from the court, he has no idea of not letting Yongning take the throne.

Yongning's difficulty lies not in the impact of those rumors on her, but in the fact that the Fang family is now in a transitional period, and it is advisable to be stable and not chaotic, but if this situation continues, although the impact on her is limited, it may cause a certain crisis to the Fang family. And the way to break the situation - Yongning set his sights on the Lizheng Palace.

The foundation of the whole thing lies in the fact that most people acquiesce in their hearts that Yongning covets the position of queen. And what Yongning has to do now is to find a way to let the terminally ill Queen Wang survive

She still has a few bottles of the Qi Nourishing Pill given by the Fufeng Immortal Master of the Xingyan Sect back then, although it is not a superb product in Yongning's eyes, but in the pile of ordinary people, it is definitely a good thing that is difficult to buy. Yongning has been collecting these pills, and they are only reserved for just in case, who knows when they will be used? And if you want to get it in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Yongning had quietly checked the queen's condition a long time ago, and a little fright could gradually sink to this point, but the root cause was because of the hard work of living over the years, and her body was boiled down alive, and later the imperial doctor prescribed a prescription to blindly seek stability, and she was able to make up for it, her body couldn't stand it, but the pill in Yongning's hand was the right symptom. Although he was a little reluctant, the Fang family was still waiting for this opportunity to break the situation, and Yongning could only endure the pain.

Since he helped the queen to treat her illness and wanted to break the situation for the Fang family, Yongning naturally would not be a good person in obscurity. For a few days, she made a full gesture, from daily life to asking for medical treatment, she did a very good job for the Lizheng Palace, and she was not deliberately high-profile, but used a demeanor that seemed to be normal, and then appeared at the right time and in the right place, so that some people could discover and ponder for themselves......

The pill Yongning was quietly taken by the queen in a very small dose every time, so after she put on a show for nearly ten days, the news that the queen was in a mild condition came out of the Lizheng Palace. And the rumors that were already on the verge of being debunked because of her unimpatient, appropriate and generous words and deeds have no market now, but they are all good words praising her woman's virtues.

Yongning didn't hide this from Li Zhi from the beginning, and Li Zhi also felt a little reluctant to use this elixir on the queen, but Yongning's worries were very likely to come true. He was indescribably grateful for what Fang Xuanling had done, and naturally he didn't want the Fang family to pay any more price for it. Although after saving the Wang family, Yongning will miss the back position again, but in Li Zhi's opinion, there will always be such an opportunity, and he is not worried about it at all.

After the imperial physician announced that the queen's condition was getting better, and she was expected to recover as long as she was recuperating, Li Zhi took the opportunity to build momentum for Yongning and the Fang family in the court, and rewarded Yongning for his respectful and scrupulous observance, fearlessness, and tireless care for the queen. The rumors that had already turned, under Li Zhi's momentum, spread in a good direction, and even many ministers affirmed that Yongning had the qualifications to become the queen when they got together for private chats......

No matter what the situation outside is, the Fang family has always been as usual, and there is nothing unusual, which makes many people who have been paying attention to the movements of the Fang family feel complicated. This incident also made many people understand that as long as the Fang family has Fang Xuanling for one day, then the Fang family will not be chaotic, and as long as the Fang family is not chaotic, it will definitely be difficult to deal with the Fang family.

After Fang Xuanling retired, although he still took the name of the head of the family, most of the affairs at hand had been handed over to Fang Xuanling, and he really thought about opening the academy. Originally, when Fang Zhize mentioned it, he didn't have time to think deeply, and during that time, just thinking about Hou Junji and Changsun Wuji had already consumed too much of his energy, but when the matter came to an end, Li Zhi vaguely expressed in the casual conversation that he was a little worried about the learning situation of the current poor students, and he couldn't help but run back to the road of worrying about the main one.

He now only enters the palace in the morning to give Li Cong a lecture for one hour every day, and the rest of the time is empty. But where can he be idle? Every day, I asked the coachman to take it, and visited private schools and academies all over Chang'an, and then found that Li Zhi's worries were still very reasonable.

In the Tang Dynasty, although the scholars of the poor family also had a chance to get ahead, most of the self-study was based on luck, and if it was discussed, it was naturally more reliable to enter the Guozijian. But let's not talk about the entry threshold of the Guozijian, just from the quantity, I don't know how many students from poor families have been turned away, not to mention that the Guozijian does not only accept scholars from the poor family, among them are still the children of the official eunuchs, after all, the restrictions on entering the Hongwen Pavilion are higher, and most of the children of the official eunuchs are still sent to the Guozijian to study.

Good teachers, and the conditions for running a school, are almost always linked to the economy and the prestige of the registrar. The reason why Guozijian is so popular is that in addition to the strong teaching force, it is also because it has the qualification to recommend talents to the court, and almost every student who comes out of Guozijian wears official clothes, which is its real charm

Fang Xuanling understands the thoughts of the two generations of emperors, from Li Shimin to Li Zhi, who are trying to get rid of the control of the wealthy family, so they have always supported officials from poor families, either explicitly or secretly. In terms of Fang Xuanling's reputation, if he set up a academy that only accepts scholars from poor families at this time, he must also be very popular with scholars from poor families. If he can be given a few years to operate, he may not fall to the peak even if he resists Guozijian......

Fang Yi was ready to go out to study, but he was forced to stay by Fang Xuanling. No matter how to say that the wish to open the academy was also made by Fang Xuanling, and Fang Xuanling does feel that his energy is not sustained now, and some things should be let go of the elderly people to do, so Fang Xuanling was instructed to do things according to Fang Xuanling's instructions......

As soon as Fang Xuanling's plan to open a academy was made, he first presented it to Li Zhi Yulan, although he didn't say it explicitly, but both the monarch and the minister understood in their hearts why this academy came. And Yongning also knew about it for the first time, and after asking Li Zhi for details, she couldn't help but worry about Fang Xuanling.

"Although money is a mundane thing, but in this world, if it is without this gold and silver thing, it will be difficult to ......" Yongning crossed his fingers to calculate the cost of opening a academy for Fang Xuanling, and I am afraid that it will be invested one after another in the future, only with the little family background of the Fang family, I am afraid that it will be difficult to support, she couldn't help but glance at Li Zhi, and said: "My family is not a rich family, where can I support a academy?" What Saburo said that day, I am afraid that he himself did not take it seriously, but you instructed him to his father......"

If other people's families run a college, they will charge a lot of miscellaneous fees such as books, tuition and miscellaneous fees, room and board fees, and those rich students don't care about that money, as long as they eat well and live well, they really don't care about whether they can study well. But Fang Xuanling's purpose in running the academy is to give the poor scholars a chance to study and progress, the so-called poor scholars, that is, the kind of people you don't have to expect them to have much money, and according to Fang Xuanling's character of cherishing talents and cherishing the poor and weak, it would be strange that he didn't lose the academy

Yongning felt that her worries were not superfluous at all, and that it was highly likely that they would come true...... As a result, she looked at Li Zhi's gaze more and more resentful.

Li Zhi shook his head, smiled helplessly and said, "I didn't say it didn't matter, did I?" It's just that if I give out the money, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, but it's not in the way of dividing a piece of land to build a academy, and I have already prepared that land, so you let your mother enter the palace tomorrow and hand over the title deed to her to take it back...... Well, speaking of which, since it is a college, there must always be a place to store books, and I will ask people to sort out a set of books in the Hongwen Collection, and it will be ...... to give them away after the academy is completed."

Books in this era were extremely expensive, and land was not cheap, so Li Zhi solved the two major problems with this mouth. But no matter how Yongning calculates, he still feels that if this academy doesn't find a way to make money, I'm afraid that it won't be able to support the Fang family for a few years if it is hollowed out. It's just that Fang Xuanling has always been a successful person, and he is not the kind of person who is too high to be popular, so he should consider this financial issue......

Originally, Yongning was relieved a lot under self-comfort, but when Mrs. Lu came to see her the next day, she realized that her almighty father was also unreliable, and the former prime minister of the Tang Dynasty actually planned to buy some land and rely on rent collection to maintain the operation of the academy......

Yongning looked at Mrs. Lu, who obviously felt that this method was unreliable, and couldn't help but rub her eyebrows and asked, "Does my father have any other plans?" This kind of thing that the earth always depends on the sky for food, if there is a disaster year, what will the academy do? Didn't you persuade him? ”

Mrs. Lu's face was full of helplessness, and she only looked at Yongning and didn't speak.

So, Yongning understood. Everyone thinks that the Fang family is the master of Mrs. Lu, but in fact, in major matters, Fang Xuanling has always been arbitrary, and he just said it

Then, Yongning looked at Mrs. Lu's eyes with some expectation, and understood again. Her mother is hoping that she can find a way to make Fang Xuanling change her mind......
