The Tyrant’s Beloved Empress

Chapter 73

Views:

The women's school was proposed by An Changqing. Yanzhou is located at the border. Due to the infestation of Bei Di for many years, it has cultivated a sturdy folk style. Even women dare to carry a kitchen knife to the battlefield in a critical moment. There have also been several anti-Di heroines who are not allowed to be men.

Because of Yu and An Xianyu, An Changqing never felt that women were inferior to men. Just like An Xianyu, if it wasn't for being a woman, with An Xianyu's knowledge, it would be an honor to go to the imperial examination. An Changqing pushed himself and others, and felt that the world was too harsh on women, so he proposed the establishment of a women's school, hoping that women at the border could also read and read.

When he originally proposed it, he thought he would be opposed, but he didn't want a few old-fashioned and stubborn elders who did not object, but expressed their approval after thinking about it. In the eyes of Yejing Gaomen people, Yanzhou is a barren and uncivilized land. But it is this kind of uncivilized land, without the so-called "rules" agreed by the aristocratic families, but has a more open and tolerant atmosphere than Ye Jing.

After the proposed plan was perfected, women's schools were opened one after another, and many women went to the school for a while, but there were not enough husbands, so the government made a list to hire female gentlemen.

Even if An Xianyu didn't take the initiative, An Changqing was going to find an opportunity to ask An Xianyu's opinion. An Xianyu has done a good job in learning, but if she is confined to the deep courtyard, it will be a waste of her talent.

Seeing her apprehension, An Changqing raised her hand to touch her head, and said warmly, "The women's school has just started. If you go, you will have to endure hardship. Have you thought about it?"

An Xianyu nodded firmly: "Think about it."

Judging from her appearance, it was obvious that she had thought about it a long time ago, and only today she mustered the courage to say it. In the last life, she failed to protect her sister and lived a new life. An Changqing was no longer obsessed with her marriage, and only hoped that she could live a happy and comfortable life. Given the powerful positions of him and Xiao Zhige, even if An Xianyu never married, no one would dare to gossip.

"Tomorrow I will personally send you there." An Changqing looked gentle and encouraged: "It's good that you can do what you want to do."

An Xianyu originally thought that such an outrageous idea would be preached by her mother and brother, but she never expected that he would agree so easily, and even her mother didn't say much, she opened her eyes in surprise. Eyes, it took a long time before he pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes were full of joy.

An Changqing did what she said, and sent her to the women's school in person the next day.

The dean of the women's school is a female gentleman in her forties. She used to be a well-known talented woman in Yanzhou. After her husband died, she had no children and lived as a widow. After the establishment of the women's school, she was invited to come out. If An Xianyu wants to enter the women's school, she must pass her examination.

An Changqing just sent her over to boost her morale, but she didn't expect to go through the back door. Therefore, after sending someone over, they waited in the front hall. An Xianyu followed the dean to the back.

Before sitting on a cup of tea, Qi Wei pulled Xie Ling and swaggered over.

"Why are you here?" An Changqing raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell on Qi Wei.

Qi Wei smiled like a fool, and said righteously: "I heard that Miss An is going to come to the female school to be a teacher. We deeply admire it, so let's take a look."

Xie Ling gave him a blank look on the side, he was clearly pulled by force.

An Changqing gave him a meaningful look and greeted the two of them to sit down and wait.

After sitting for a while, someone came again. This time it was Zhou Helan, his usual expressionless face, his eyes flashed when he saw Qi Wei and Xie Ling, his back was straight and he bowed his hands: "I heard that the Women's School has just been established, I just have a batch of pen, ink and paper here that haven't been released yet. , I am willing to donate to women's schools and do my best."

An Changqing frowned and looked at him inquiringly. Zhou Helan bowed his head slightly, his expression unclear. The thought of being pressed down yesterday came up again, but I was a little unsure. He nodded slightly towards Zhou Helan and told him to sit too.

The group waited for about half an hour before An Xianyu came out with the academician. The two of them were a little surprised when they touched the three more people in the hall.

An Changqing explained. Hearing that Zhou Helan was willing to donate pen and ink, the dean's expression became much kinder, and he solemnly thanked him.

An Xianyu stood beside the dean, looked over with bright eyes, and quickly lowered her eyes to bless him.

Zhou Helan said "No need to say thank you" and retreated behind An Changqing.

Qi Wei, who was on the side, was dissatisfied with being ignored, and stepped forward and generously expressed that he would also donate money. When women's school was short of everything, the academician naturally relied on it and thanked him with a smile on his face.

Qi Wei went to look at An Xianyu quietly, but saw that An Xianyu didn't look at him at all, but went to An Changqing's side instead.

Qi Wei: "…"

When the group parted, Qi Wei tugged at Xie Ling's sleeve and asked him sadly, "Am I not enough for the weather today? Why doesn't Miss An even look at me?"

Xie Ling avoided him in disgust, and looked at him with some sympathy: "Maybe someone already has a crush."

"Fairy Wood"

Qi Wei stared: "You have less crow's mouth!"

Not wanting to argue with him, Xie Ling looked at him like a fool: "Don't come to me to drink with you in the future."

***

In mid-September, An Xianyu officially went to women's school. In addition to teaching the students, she also helped the dean to handle the affairs of the women's school. An Xianyu quickly became busy, and simply lived in the women's school, returning only during the ten-day break every month.

Zhou Helan stayed in Yanzhou for a few days, then went west to Liangzhou, and took the caravan to escort the second batch of jadeite stone to the south.

This time back to Yanzhou, he also brought 60% of the income of the rough jadeite. The amount was so huge that An Changqing was speechless. But relying on batches of rough jadeite, the money earned can support tens of thousands of Yanzhou soldiers. The wealth of the South is evident.

This was what Xiao Zhige told An Changqing later, but he sighed deeply after speaking, and Dao Nanfang would not be at peace for long.

An Changqing was puzzled, and Xiao Zhige analyzed it for him.

"The south has always been dominated by local tyrants. These people control almost the entire southern fields. Ordinary people can only rent the fields. Most of the annual harvest is handed over to the tyrants. The remaining half can be used to make ends meet."

The South is indeed rich, but the rich are those tyrannical families. Otherwise, the rough jadeite shipped to the south will not be sought after in a short period of time. It is just that the tyrants are tired of playing the old tricks, and they spend a lot of money when they see a new thing, and they compete to bid first, for fun, but also to compare with others.

If this situation persists, the southern side may be able to be peaceful for a while. But when Zhou Helan headed north, he heard that the southern states and counties were experiencing drought and little rain this year, and the fields were about to be harvested. Once the collection is delinquent, ordinary people will not be able to maintain their livelihoods, and I am afraid that chaos will occur again.

An Changqing had never heard of the news of the chaos in the south in the last life, but he wanted to know that, with the chaos in the north one after another, how could the south be calm

But he never expected that Xiao Zhige's prophecy would be fulfilled so quickly.

At the end of September, Zhou Helan sent back news that people in the counties of Guangping, Qinghe, and Ding'an rose up. The turmoil this time is more cruel than the original Surabaya turmoil.

The people of the South have been exploited and oppressed by the tyrants for many years. The fields are in arrears this fall. These people who rented the fields not only failed to keep enough food, but also owed a lot of debt. The local tyrants are accustomed to oppressing these people at the bottom, and there is no mercy in the face of natural disasters. In the face of such a difficult situation, they have intensified their efforts. Those who owe rent and do not pay will pay the interest on the money and grain owed at the "lamb's interest".

Lambs owe one to two, such a heavy burden, and finally these people who face the loess and turn their backs to the sky are forced to a dead end.

The people in the south are not like the Bai Ding army in Sishui. The Bai Ding army hated the imperial court’s heavy taxation and corvée labor. But the people of the southern land really hated the tyrants in these fish and meat villages. After the uprising, these tyrannical families were slaughtered.

The local tyrants and the uprising army reacted to the same fire and water, and they did not die. The southern states and counties were bloody, and corpses were scattered everywhere. On the contrary, the government is corrupt and incompetent. For many years, the power has been controlled by the tyrants. In the face of such a severe situation, it is impossible to intervene at all, and can only ask the court for help.

When the news came back to Ye Jing, it was already the end of September. Emperor Anqing's body was not as good as before. After reading the book, he was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood.

The newly appointed Minister of Taifu Temple was still merciful, and suggested that the prince should send someone to thoroughly investigate the merger of the southern land, destroy the tyrants in the southern regions, and at the same time exempt the people from taxes and open warehouses for disaster relief. After all, this time the people's uprising is facing the tyrannical, if the court can appease it well, it will get a good reputation.

The Minister of Taifu Temple was promoted from the former young supervisor of Taifu Temple, and was originally the governor of Changyang County. The situation in Yejing is still not clear enough. What he didn't know was that the reason why the tyrants in the southern regions dared to act so recklessly was that they were inextricably linked with the officials of the imperial court of the noble families in Yejing, and even the two princes.

The rich and prosperous in the south, how could these people not get involved

The prince sneered and refuted Taifu Siqing's proposal, and said coldly: "How can these pariahs dare to rebel, how can they be easily let go?"

On the same day, the imperial decree stamped with the emperor's seal was sent to the north. After fighting for a long time, the people of the southern land were slaughtered by the imperial army.

The people were in an uproar, but then the prince did not expect it to calm down. The wanton slaughter aroused even greater counterattacks. These people assembled into an army and fought desperately against the army. The defenders in Gyeongju, Yongzhou, Yuzhou and other places had neglected their training and were tired and lazy. Faced with these red-eyed people now, they are terrified. After the initial victory, they began to retreat. First Qingzhou fell, then Yongzhou, and then Yuzhou.

Yuanzhou defends Yejing, if Yuanzhou falls, the rebel army can press Yejing directly. Only then did the prince panic, and Emperor Anqing held on to his sick body and summoned the courtiers to discuss matters.

The party of Concubine Shu, who had been silent for a long time, took the opportunity to fall into the trap and wantonly impeached the prince and the prince's party. There are also officials who are used to meeting and muddy each play fifty big boards. Yunshan and fog cover for a long time, but there is no solution.

Emperor Anqing coughed in anger, pointed at Shen Tubo and asked, "What does Shentu Aiqing think?"

Shen Tubo opposed sending troops to suppress it early in the morning, but it was only the prince who insisted on his own actions that caused a catastrophe. Now, seeing that the people in the court are not thinking about how to solve the civil unrest, but instead they are still fighting for power and making a profit, the mood is even more complicated.

Hearing Emperor Anqing ask him about him, he was silent for a moment, and followed his heart and said, "It's better to send the King of the Northern War to pacify the chaos."

As soon as the words came out, there was silence above the court, but no one came out to object at this time. The chaotic people in the south are fierce. If they stand up to oppose at this time, and delay the fighters to allow the chaotic people to break through the prefecture and reach Yejing, then the nine clans will not be enough to kill.

Emperor Anqing stared at Shen Tu Bo for a long time, and said tiredly: "Pass on my will, order the King of Bei Zhan to immediately lead his troops to Yongzhou to quell the chaos!"

The author has something to say: Cowardly: Many people cue me today.
