Little Bai Jingxing pulled out the box under her bed and opened it. Inside were all kinds of her toys.
She pushed it to Wuyue, and asked with her small face up, "Am I rich like this?"
Wu Yue took a look at her suitcase, then turned around to open the cabinet, took out a large box from inside, and opened it to her, "Little lady, this is your pocket money."
The little boy Bai Jingxing grabbed a handful of copper coins, opened his mouth slightly, and exclaimed, "Wow, I have so much money?"
Wu Yue laughed and said: "That's not too much, you still have the money you collect every year, and birthday gifts, all of which are collected by the lady."
Bai Jingxing asked, "Is it all my money?"
May nodded with a smile.
"More than in this box?"
May continued to nod.
Bai Jingxing put all the copper coins into the box, hugged it in his arms and asked, "Are these enough to support younger brothers and sisters?"
May said with a smile: "It should be enough."
Bai Jingxing let out a breath and muttered, "Da Baoer still owes me a wooden horse, and that is also valuable."
Wu Yue couldn't tell her that the wooden horse was cut for her by the owner of the house. The workmanship was rough and it was not very valuable.
Bai Jingxing did some calculations about his private house, and felt that he was quite rich, and raising younger siblings would not be a problem, but Bai Ruoyu in the capital was receiving gifts.
He tugged at the Nine Chains that he just got, but he really didn't know how to play, so he shook it hard angrily, the golden ring hit the back of his hand, and he let it go in pain.
When the emperor saw him, he hugged him on his lap and taught him how to untie it, "Your temper is not at all like your mother's. Noisy or not."
Bai Ruoyu asked: "Who is so bad that he buckled all the rings together?"
emperor:"… "
The emperor didn't know who it was, so he couldn't answer this question.
On the other hand, the emperor's grandson glanced at his cousin, and said to him: "Untying the Nine Chains can improve the mind, and the ancestors put them together to solve them for us. You are still young, so I will teach you."
The emperor immediately put Bai Ruoyu on the ground, patted his little butt and said, "Go play with your cousin."
Bai Ruoyu is not familiar with the emperor's grandson, but children like to play with older children. When he was in Beihai County, he had no chance. Now that an older child takes him with him, he is naturally willing, so he picked up Jiulianhuan and stuffed it into his arms. I ran to the side to play.
After looking at them for a while, the emperor turned his head and asked Mingda, "I heard from your mother that you want to open a girls' school in the capital?"
Mingda nodded, "I'm afraid I can't recruit many students if I'm alone, so I want to bring my sister-in-law together, but she is the princess, and the matter is related to the country, so I'm afraid I have to pay for it."
The emperor asked curiously, "Didn't the princess want to open a women's school in the Imperial College? Why did she suddenly want to open a private school?"
Ming Da said: "Isn't that the court disagrees?"
She said: "The queen mother and sister-in-law can't embarrass the father and the prince's brother, so they want to put this matter down for the time being. Since the public school can't be done, they will try the private school first, just for practice."
Ming Da paused and said: "And my son is also very interested in this. I usually have nothing to do, and opening a girls' school can also kill time."
The emperor became thoughtful, "Female school..."
He tapped his knee, "Those who have this experience in Beijing, except for the family studies of the major families, are also too medical."
But the women's studies of the major families basically only deal with their own daughters, and most of them are taught by one family, which is different from the general sense of family studies.
Mingda laughed and said: "I know what father is worried about, don't worry, since I have to do it, I must put my heart into it, and think about everything before starting, so there will be no jokes, and I will not make things difficult for father and prince brother .”
The emperor smiled and said, "I haven't said anything yet, but you already know what father is worried about?"
"Of course," Mingda said, "it's nothing more than a matter of etiquette. Although the women's school we run is a private school, but it is led by my sister-in-law and me, so it is labeled as a royal family."
She said: "Your servant knows that those aristocratic families look down on our Li family from the bottom of their hearts. When the time comes, when the ladies of each family go to school, if there is an unruly incident in school, it will not only be the daughter and sister-in-law, but also the father who will be criticized. The emperor and the prince brother."
Seeing her transparency, the emperor sighed and said: "You three brothers and sisters, you are the most considerate of the father. Now that you have thought of this, the father will not stop you anymore."
He said: "You and the Crown Princess will go to the fold, and you don't need to hand it to the Zhongshu Province, but directly send it to Zhan Shifu, and let the Crown Prince hand it over to the Ministry of Rites for review."
Mingda stared, "But the Zhongshu Ministry and the Menxia Provincial Audit?"
The emperor waved his hand indifferently and said: "This is a matter of the clan. There is no need to hand it over to the Zhongshu Province and the Menxia Province for discussion. The clan is also under the control of the King of Hejian County. He just agrees."
That's what he said, but in fact, Duke Hejian didn't really want to agree.
"Your Majesty, the establishment of a women's school is of great importance..."
The emperor asked: "What's so important? Isn't it just opening a school?"
Li Shangshu: "...that's true, but that's when you don't make mistakes. Once you make a mistake, those people outside don't know how to laugh at us, Mrs. Li."
He felt he couldn't take the risk.
But the emperor said: "I think it's good. After running the women's school, the royal family's prestige can also be improved, not only among the people, but also among the aristocratic families. It is important to know that academics are important for the aristocratic family."
He has already reworked the clan annals, and it still has some effect, but because the time is still short, only ten years of work, the effect is not visible.
At this time, if the royal family has achieved academic achievements, it will amplify this effect.
Li Shangshu was speechless for a long time, "Your Majesty, even if you want to study, you should run an academy and recruit male students. How can you run a female school?"
"Isn't there already a Guozijian for andrology?" The emperor said: "There is also a Chongwen Hall in the palace, so why do we need to open another academy?"
"But there is no women's school. This is the first time in the world. If it is done well, it will have its own prestige and merit."
Li Shangshu: "When it comes to women's education, the imperial medical department is the first, right?"
"If you want to say that, don't there be female students sent by the imperial medical office in the Guozijian now?" The emperor said: "Is there a female school in the Guozijian? Now that there is a female school, why do you refuse to do so desperately?" Let clan girls and noble girls go to the Imperial College to study?"
Li Shangshu was silent, he didn't think he couldn't speak for the emperor, but he had to talk about this matter, even if he fought for a day and a night, he might not be able to tell the winner.
So he could only keep silent.
The emperor stared at him and asked, "Do you agree or not?"
Li Shangshu looked helpless, "Yes, I agreed, and I will approve and return the notebook later."
The emperor was satisfied with this, and smiled with him: "Mingda just wants to find something to do, otherwise staying in the capital would be too boring, I think it is very good to run a girls' school. In the past few years, she has not been able to Thinking about going out."
Li Shangshu was speechless.
