"Sister Yuan, when the upper-class dignitaries think that this proposal is an offense and threat to them, when the ordinary people think that this proposal cuts off their aspirations and dreams, when most men and women express their opposition, when the rich and poor in the world They all strongly resisted. When your superiors, colleagues, and subordinates don't understand, support, or approve, how can you still succeed?" Xia Shuangjun looked at Sheng Yuan worriedly and kept asking questions.
Sheng Yuan, who was originally in a relaxed mood, couldn't help but fall silent when she heard these straightforward questions.
"When the opposition becomes too loud, and when they target women's scientific examinations in order to eliminate the threat, how long can this avenue that allows girls in the world to see hope be preserved?"
Xia Shuangjun shook his head helplessly: "It is difficult to open this road, but if you want to close it, it is just a word from the person in power... Sister Yuan, to be honest, I still feel uneasy until now, I am afraid that the current situation will be better The situation is short-lived.
I am incompetent, but you are different, Sister Yuan. You are a girl who has the ability to get close to the center of the imperial court!
It is precisely for this reason that I sincerely hope that you will act cautiously and think carefully. Only when it becomes normal for girls to take the imperial examination, only when girls appear in court in large numbers, and only when there is a girl in the central cabinet, will all walks of life in the world give girls opportunities to join the ranks, and will ordinary girls in the world have more possibilities... And a girl like me who is confined to the backyard will not have such a difficult time.
Sister Yuan, since you are the first candidate to pass six yuan since the three dynasties of Yan, Chen and Chu, and since you are the first girl to pass six yuan since ancient times, then you should work hard towards the cabinet!
The world is bustling with people, mostly for profit. As long as the court has a female pavilion elder, there will be countless people among the people to support the girls to go to school and compete in the imperial examinations.
At that time, can a promising girl still tolerate her husband being erratic and hugging her?
At that time, in order to marry a promising girl, I am afraid that some husbands and families will take the initiative to never take concubines.
By then, the climate has been established and the suggestion of monogamy will come naturally.
After all, when there are more men who cannot take concubines, they will be more active and proactive in helping to promote them. "
When he said the last sentence, Xia Shuangjun laughed to himself.
Sheng Yuan rarely saw her showing such a naughty smile, and couldn't help but laugh too.
"Sister Jun, you are right... I did not do well in the exam before." Sheng Yuan realized that she had thought simply.
I guess she was used to having things go smoothly in the past, so she subconsciously thought that as long as she wanted to push, it would be difficult not to succeed.
This is a sign of arrogance!
Sheng Yuan couldn't help but feel a little happy when she thought that the swelling that she didn't even notice was discovered as soon as it emerged.
"Sister Jun, you are so kind!" She shook her friend's hand and sighed with pity, "If possible, I really want to kidnap you to Shou'an City and become a counselor with me!"
"You are thinking about me becoming your master, right? Also a counselor!" Xia Shuangjun didn't take it seriously and joked with Sheng Yuan.
His suggestion was accepted, which made Xia Shuangjun feel extremely satisfied.
…
"Brother Yu, what are your sister Yuan and my sister Jun talking about? They are so happy!"
Ouyang Ling and Anyu followed Shengyuan and Xia Shuangjun from a distance, watching them talking and laughing, but could not hear their words clearly.
"Probably because you are so incompetent that you can only wrong your wife!" An Yu also listened to Ouyang Ling's complaints, and after knowing the reason, he couldn't help but ridicule him.
Ouyang Ling was not angry and scratched his head: "I'm not you. I have the ability to fight against my family! But it doesn't matter. When I work hard to enter the court, I will take Sister Jun out and let her be my counselor. , still happy."
"That's true." An Yu thought of his current status and agreed with Ouyang Ling's idea.
"Since my sister Yuan hasn't found the master yet, it's not impossible for me to take over for him temporarily!" An Yu was moved and planned to recommend himself to Sheng Yuan after setting off.
Ouyang Ling: "..."
"You're not as good as me! If you serve Sister Yuan as a master, I'm afraid you want Sister Yuan to take on two positions?! Then why don't you let her directly shoulder the two positions of Fu Yin and Master right now! "
"I'm very smart, okay!" Anyu was unhappy.
It doesn't matter if he is a master or not, but how can he let Ouyang Ling underestimate his own wisdom? !
Ouyang Ling saw Anyu about to rub his fists, and immediately resisted the urge to refute and nodded vigorously.
A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. This is not because he is a coward!
…
As the saying goes, we must say goodbye after a long journey. No matter how long we talk to friends, there is always a time to say goodbye.
"Wen Zhen, Wen Zhen! We are here to see you off!" Cen Youniang, Chao Wensheng, Xue Ziyi, Hu Wensheng, Qiu Quanqi and several other girls from the same department rushed over.
"Aren't you all on duty today?" Because these colleagues were on duty on the day they left the capital, Sheng Yuan did not say hello to them. He only wanted to write a letter to inform them after departure.
"My servant saw your convoy traveling and came to me specifically to report it. Only then did I know that you, Sheng Wenzhen, were leaving without saying goodbye!" Chao Wensheng laughed loudly and jumped off the horse first.
"It was Jiuying who sent someone to notify us, so we were able to hurriedly ask for leave and come here. Fortunately, we caught up!" Cen Youniang and Xue Ziyi responded with a smile.
"Originally, there are colleagues who are coming with us, but they have a lot of small things to do at work and really can't take leave, so they asked us to help say hello to you!" Hu Wensheng and Qiu Quanqi followed Chao, Cen, and Xue to greet Sheng Yuan.
"I have received everyone's thoughts. Wen Zhen has never been left to his own devices in the officialdom. With these words, Wen Zhen is already satisfied! Of course, I am especially grateful to you for coming to see me off. Wen Zhen will never forget this friendship." Sheng Yuan cupped her hands and thanked her.
"We say goodbye today. I wonder when we can see each other again. We came in a hurry and couldn't prepare Cheng Yi to send you off, so we had to break five willow branches casually. I wish you a safe journey and wish you a great future in Shou'an City. I wish you even more. Return to Beijing soon."
Hearing this, Sheng Yuan hurriedly and solemnly took over the willow branch without many leaves: "Wen Zhen also wishes you all a smooth career in officialdom and the best you can do!"
"Sister Yuan, it's time for us to set off." After being reminded by Chengdong, Anyu hurriedly stepped forward and said to Shengyuan, who was holding hands with her colleagues and exchanging blessings.
"Okay." Sheng Yuan took a breath, nodded, let go of each other's hands, and raised his hands to everyone, "After a long journey, we have to say goodbye. All my friends, please stay. Wen Zhen is here to say goodbye to you. I wish you all the best. Everyone is safe, and I look forward to seeing you again in the future. Farewell!"
"May peace be with you!" everyone shouted loudly, cupping their hands.
…
"Ling Niang, let's go back!" Sheng Xiangxun, who was behind the city gate, looked at Zheng beside him and sighed as he watched the motorcade drive away from a distance and watched the farewell girl Lang Jun leave.
Although they had agreed before that in order to avoid being reluctant to leave each other, they would not be sent outside the city gate and would only say goodbye in the mansion; but the couple still couldn't help following quietly behind them, watching their little daughter and her husband from a distance. Her friends say goodbye.
When their youngest daughter left the house, he and his wife forced a smile and no one shed a tear.
It wasn't until they saw the motorcade leaving the city gates and leaving Kyoto that the couple couldn't help crying.
"Fortunately, the carriage is covered by curtains!" Sheng Xiangxun, who was crying and sobbing, let a gust of wind wake him up a little, and this thought came to his mind vaguely. (End of chapter)
