Chapter 1339: Why Can't Women Participate in the Imperial Examination?
Education reform?
How did this lead to education reform? Everyone was a little confused, and looked at Su Mingyue suspiciously.
Wang Zhengqing, the head of the household department, couldn't help but ask: "Queen Mother, this person is an impostor, I don't know what it has to do with education reform?" ”
Everyone was curious.
Don't talk about them, Shen Wenjun himself is no exception, and looked at Su Mingyue in surprise.
The little girl and Duan Yiyi and her entourage are naturally the same, Shen Wenjun turned out to be a woman, replacing others, and looking at the appearance of the eldest sister, it seems that she already knew.
But it shouldn't be, the eldest sister is so busy, how can she have time to pay attention to these.
Duan Yiyi's eyes rolled, and she subconsciously looked at her husband.
Really! The husband looked calm.
It must be that the husband is playing a ghost, Duan Yiyi hummed in her heart, but she didn't debunk it, the husband was the worst, and he drugged himself, let's see what the hell he is doing first.
Duan Yiyi naturally thought that if the talented man knew her heart, he would probably want to die.
I'm afraid I'll never be able to get over the drug.
Su Mingyue smiled lightly, looked at Wang Zhengqing and said, "It's normal for Lord Wang to have doubts, but Lord Wang thinks that what is the purpose of His Majesty's education reform?" ”
Wang Zhengqing was stunned for a moment and said: "Returning to the queen's mother, it is naturally for students all over the world to receive a better education." ”
Su Mingyue asked again: "What else?" ”
Wang Zhengqing froze for a moment, thought for a while, and said: "Prepare for the development of the dynasty and cultivate more talents." ”
A number of ministers are also subconsciously nodding their heads, and the implementation of education reform is nothing more than these reasons.
Su Mingyue smiled and said: "Lord Wang is right, but there are still omissions, Your Majesty's implementation of education reform is naturally for the sake of cultivating talents, so that students in the world can receive better education, but more importantly, it is to open up the wisdom of the people." ”
Wang Zhengqing was stunned for a moment and said, "Queen Mother, is this any different from what the lower official said?" ”
"To let the world's students receive better education is to open up the wisdom of the people."
Su Mingyue shook her head and said, "Naturally, the target is different, and the scope is different." ”
"What Lord Wang said about making the world's students better educated is limited to only some people and some scholars, but Your Majesty wants to open up the wisdom of the people and target all the people, and this naturally includes women."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed.
Because they can hear it, what the queen mother means is that education reform is not only the reform of the form of education, but also the people who are targeted.
Listening to the meaning of this, women's reading will probably also be included in the reform.
In fact, many officials are not surprised by this.
Because of the Jiangnan Women's Federation, there have long been a lot of women's schools there, and this is especially true in the southwest.
And there are many Yi tribes over there, and the resistance to these things is not very strong.
Of course, because of the prestige of the great talent, it was implemented very smoothly over there.
The Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers have all seen it, and now that the talented people are pushing for education reform, they don't have to think about it to know that women's reading will inevitably be put on the agenda.
The most important point is that His Majesty has been in charge of the education reform, which is a kind of explanation.
So although they were surprised that the woman was able to study, they were not too surprised.
Wang Zhengqing is the same, this matter has become an established fact.
So he didn't say anything, just echoed: "Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are dedicated to the people, which is the blessing of my great departure." ”
All the officials also chimed in, and they took a picture of the sycophants.
Su Mingyue continued: "Before His Majesty decided to implement this policy, this palace had asked His Majesty that it was a good thing to let women study and receive education, but what about after studying? Is it just reading? Guess what Your Majesty answered. ”
The ministers looked at each other, and they guessed.
Of course, there are also some people with incredible looks on their faces, as if they have thought of some possibility.
The little girl looked curious, and couldn't help asking, "Sister, what did you say?" ”
This Nizi couldn't help it, looking like a curious baby.
Lin Bai was calm, watching his beautiful lady perform, I have to say that the Iron Lady is really stable, graceful and generous, not shocked, and her temperament is dead.
She first glanced at Lin Bai, and then looked at everyone: "Your Majesty said that naturally not, what men can do, women can also do." ”
"Men can participate in the imperial examinations, and so can women."
What!
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the crowd.
The status of women in this era was relatively low, and it was already a very unusual thing for women to openly enter the academy, and as for women participating in the imperial examination, it was simply unheard of and conceivable.
Not only the officials, but also the students, all looked at each other.
"Your Majesty, this matter must not be done, a woman's duty is to teach her husband and children, how can she show her head like this, it is not in line with the etiquette, please think twice, Your Majesty."
"Not bad! It is already immoral for a woman to enter the academy to study, and she has paid it back when she participates in the imperial examination, so please ask Your Majesty to take back her fate. ”
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
“……”
An official stood up, and it was obvious that the participation of women in the imperial examination was generally not accepted, after all, the concept of this era was like this, women were the vassals of men, husbands and children were their own duties, and everything else was false.
The little girl couldn't help it, and shouted: "Why can't women participate in the imperial examination?" Who prescribes? ”
The little girl doesn't care about this, not to mention that with her brother-in-law's support, she is even less afraid.
However, the officials did not hesitate and brought out a bunch of big truths.
Lin Bai was a little speechless, and said lightly: "Don't be in a hurry to object, listen to the queen's mother first." ”
When everyone heard this, they calmed down, and their eyes looked at Su Mingyue again.
Shen Wenjun is no exception.
Can women participate in the imperial examination? At this moment, she was suddenly a little excited, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Su Mingyue glanced at her, smiled and continued: "When Your Majesty told the palace about this decision, the palace was also very suspicious, and told Your Majesty that women's participation in the imperial examination has not existed since ancient times, and if it is implemented rashly, I am afraid that it will be opposed by the courtiers." ”
"But Your Majesty said that the fact that it does not exist since ancient times does not mean that it is right, nor does it mean that it will not exist in the future, all kinds of things in the southwest, all kinds of R&D achievements of the R&D center, have not existed since ancient times, so is it also wrong?"
"Your Majesty also said that the officials who leave the dynasty must have an innovative vision and a vision to open up the future, if they will only hold a bunch of ancient books and stick to the rules, then he will not be able to keep up with the development of the dynasty, and will be eliminated by the times, and such officials will no longer be needed when they leave the dynasty."
