Chapter 220: A Poor Female Student
There are limited ways for women to learn about court politics, and among the women who are currently in the court, there are very few women from poor families, and most of them are women from wealthy families or big families.
Those women followed their fathers and brothers to understand the government and business, so they naturally knew very well about these reasons.
Entering the court as an official, for those who are easy to come to the court, they are also quite careful.
But that's not enough.
Since the male protagonist is from a poor family, he can also enter the court through the path of scientific examination, and there is also a school that can be used as a foundation for them to climb up step by step.
Then those civilian women should also have such a way.
Chen Mu directly issued a decree requiring the expansion of private universities.
To expand the enrollment of poor female students, even if it is a small school in the city, at least five poor female students must be recruited.
If you can set up a separate school hall and a women's school, the imperial court will even give you a subsidy!
As soon as this decree was promulgated, there was another uproar among the people.
In the private sector, ordinary women who have been touched by the recent decrees are naturally very excited when they hear about them.
They searched around for news and asked which school had set up a women's school and wanted to enroll in the hall to study.
At the same time, it was not only those folk women who were touched by this order, but also those men from poor families and those from high-ranking families, who reacted violently.
For those students from humble backgrounds, it is already extremely difficult for them to climb up.
It is okay to compare with those nobles who are not from an ordinary background and have an unusual vision.
Now that there is another group of poor students, how can they compete?
Seeing that the road is getting narrower and narrower, countless complaints broke out among the people again, and there is no mathematics hall that refuses to establish a women's school.
In the face of public opinion of blatant resistance, Chen Mu did not delay, and when Weifu went on a visit, he was ready to go to the people to see what the people thought of such decrees and what they wanted to achieve.
Of course, Chen Mu also knows that most of the people who make trouble in the people are poor male students, and for those poor male students.
Faced with the fact that their way was partially blocked by female students, they couldn't think of any other way except to make trouble among the people and try to attract the attention of the people above.
As for those folk schools, most of them are some rural talents who have failed to make the list, or some knowledgeable scholars who have established them.
They are already prejudiced against women.
Under such circumstances, even if Chen Mu issued a decree requiring them to levy at least five female students into their own school, they were very unwilling.
Chen Mu asked them to levy no age limit for female students, even if they were in their twenties.
Even a woman who is married can go to school.
And this not only impacted the way of male students from poor families to enter the court and become officials, but also made the people of Beijing talk behind their backs, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was confused for a while.
In this way, it is obviously inconsistent with the etiquette and etiquette!
How can a married woman go to the academy to study?
And let those women who have reached marriageable age go to the academy to study, and hang out with those men?
Do you want to get married in the future?
Even if you learn that knowledge, you may not have the opportunity to become an official in the court.
In the end, I learned a lot of things, my vision was higher, and I was messing around with men all day long.
Not to mention that they themselves do not want to marry others as wives, and even those men who are looked upon by their own families are not willing to marry them.
As a result, the people's complaints are getting bigger and bigger.
Chen Mu went to the people non-stop, wanting to see the public opinion feedback from the people.
He deliberately chose a school built in the middle of an alley.
Chen Mu took the pretext of coming to the school to check the learning environment, sneaked into the school, and visited the teachers in the school.
"Not long after our school was first built, I was a poor talent who only fell off the list some time ago, and I built this school to help more poor students and let them have a road to heaven!"
"Hahaha, I see that you are dressed extraordinarily, you should have some family background, right?"
"You chose our school, it is really discerning, I am also a rich and wealthy five-car generation, the reason why I fell off the list is because of ...... Because ......"
The teacher who established the school was a middle-aged man in his forties, and when he said this, he suddenly sighed heavily.
Chen Mu sat in the hall with his entourage, and when he saw him like this, he raised his eyebrows.
"Because of what? You name it. ”
"It's not because the court has to let women enter the court as officials, I can clearly get famous, but there are women who have better knowledge than me and have more unique opinions."
"Their papers were taken by the officials who read them, and then my one was snatched by the woman."
"Alas, although it is not appropriate to say this behind my back, I tell you that I am also worried about causing me trouble, but I am really unwilling to ...... in my heart"
Chen Mu was stunned when he heard him say this, and then couldn't help laughing.
It was obvious that he was not knowledgeable enough, but he was to blame for letting a woman enter the court as an official, Chen Mu shook his head secretly.
Since the topic had already reached the female student, Chen Mu did not delay, and simply took advantage of the situation to ask.
"This woman's entry into the court as an official is a decision of the superiors, and we ordinary people don't have the right to talk more."
"Maybe the one up there has his own considerations."
"And the achievements of women who have become officials in the court are indeed staggering......"
"I heard that the one above also plans to expand the private academy and let female students study in the hall."
"Have you recently recruited female students in this school?"
Seeing Chen Mu say this, the gentleman was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shook his head.
There was a slight look of disapproval on his face.
"This is naturally not, how dare I recruit it, if it is really recruited, the students of my academy are afraid that they will run away."
"It's not just women who care about that reputation, but naturally there are men as well."
"Some of the students in my school are from the family of small merchants in our capital."
"They were just enlightened, and their parents were too busy with their affairs to take care of them, so they sent them to my school."
"If outsiders know that their children are secretly messing with female students in my school, those men will be easily dragged down when they find a daughter-in-law in the future."
When Chen Mu heard the other party say this, he couldn't cry or laugh.
Does this still affect the reputation of men?
But think about it, after all, this is an ancient time that pays great attention to etiquette.
Chen Mu shook his head secretly, frowned, and listened to the gentleman continue.
"In addition, even if I want to accept it, those female students from poor backgrounds may not have the opportunity to come to my school to study."
In this day and age, when a woman is born, what is it that is taught?
It's a female red, and it's the truth of the back house.
If you can get the opportunity and marry someone as soon as possible, it will naturally be a good thing.
