Zhu Biao frowned and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Have you ever seen a queen who taught in all dynasties? Of course I don't want her to go to the academy, but..."
But after a long time, Zhu Biao still moved his lips silently without saying a word.
When Han Du saw it, he immediately understood. This was being taken advantage of by the girl!
So, Han Du asked again: "Has the emperor asked all the ministers for their opinions?"
Zhu Biao sighed: "I asked, and they were all firmly opposed."
"The ministers also objected." Han Du sided with the ministers without hesitation.
This matter is related to an issue of etiquette and law and should not be underestimated. In fact, when Han Jingyun was teaching in the academy, some old Confucian scholars were dissatisfied, but their knowledge in arithmetic was not as good as that of Han Jingyun, so they could only turn a blind eye and endure it.
But if Han Jingyun goes to teach in the academy now, Han Du can guarantee that even the ministers of the DPRK and China will not tolerate it.
Zhu Biao obviously knew about this situation, so he called Han Du.
"Don't be too busy objecting. Think of a solution now. She is your sister after all."
Zhu Biao glared at Han Du.
Seeing that Zhu Biao insisted on blaming the matter on himself, Han Du said helplessly: "Your Majesty, as far as I know Jingyun is not an unreasonable person. If the Emperor doesn't agree, she shouldn't be pestering her, right?"
When Zhu Biao saw it, he immediately understood the meaning of Han Du's words. He sighed: "Jingyun has not only had to take care of several children, but also me in these years. It is really difficult for her. She has never asked me for anything in these years. It is just such a small wish. How can I still do it?" Can't you bear to refuse? Moreover, she has been a little depressed this year..."
The last sentence made Han Du's expression change drastically. Being depressed may not be a big problem in the eyes of Ming people, but Han Du came from an era when medicine was developed. This situation may involve depression, although it is not necessarily the case, but does Han Du dare to bet? Don't dare.
Han Du took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I may have an idea."
"I know you have a solution, tell me quickly." Zhu Biao suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile on his face. Where can you see the melancholy look just now?
This made Han Du have to wonder if Zhu Biao's expression just now was deliberately put on to trick him?
But now that the conversation has come to this point, it doesn't matter whether it's intentional or not.
After Han Du pondered for a while, he said, "It's definitely not possible for your Majesty to go to the academy."
This is an iron rule. Zhu Biao also knows that it is too difficult for Jingyun to go to the academy, and even he, the emperor, cannot forcefully issue an order.
"However, I think we can open an academy in the palace."
"Establishing an academy in the palace?" Zhu Biao frowned, he was a little reluctant.
If an academy is opened in the palace, let’s not talk about whether anyone will come to study. Just the fact that strange men could not enter and leave the palace at will made opening an academy even more unrealistic.
"Your Majesty, listen to what I have to say first," Han Du quickly explained: "What I mean is that this academy does not need to find students from outside. Instead, it calls for girls of the right age to come and study from among the nobles and civil servants."
"Oh? Your idea is interesting." Zhu Biao's eyes lit up.
Han Du let out a breath, he was helpless. Since Han Jingyun couldn't leave the palace, she could only move the academy to the palace for her. And men can't enter the palace, so they can only find some women to come in.
As for the noble and civilized family, would they agree to allow their daughter to study in the palace?
Of course this won't be a problem!
Officials' families would always ask teachers to teach their daughters, and this was the case even in Han Du's family. Otherwise, Anqing wouldn't have had the headache of finding a teacher for Han Yingluo.
Therefore, even a civil servant who pays great attention to etiquette would not refuse his daughter to study in the palace. Moreover, it was taught by the Queen herself, and the benefits of this were really great. Even if they were only taught by the Empress for one day, they would be able to tell their marriage seekers in the future that their daughter was taught by the Empress step by step, and marrying anyone would not be considered a high achievement.
After all, in this way, even if their daughter is half a disciple of the Queen, no matter how high her status is in the Ming Dynasty, can she still be higher than the Queen?
As for whether it will affect my daughter's reputation?
Then they don't have to worry anymore. There is only one man in the palace, the emperor. Who can affect the reputation of his daughter? In other words, even if the emperor really falls in love with his daughter, that would be even better, as parents they can still find a father-in-law.
This is true for all civil servants, let alone nobles.
Xungui was originally a military commander, and not everyone is as knowledgeable as Han Du. The issue of children's education has always been the most troublesome thing for nobles.
Since the Song Dynasty, it has been the custom for literati to look down on generals. Even if you are knighted, you are still a general in the eyes of literati.
Usually it is very difficult for Xungui to hire a good teacher. No matter how high the salary is, there are only a few people who are willing to come and teach in Xungui's house regardless of their reputation. As a result, many nobles could not hire anyone, so they had no choice but to teach themselves.
And what Xungui can give to his children is the art of battle formation. He also gave this move a nice name, called Family Learning Origin!
But Han Du is sure that if they can hire teachers, none of them will let their children continue to wield swords and guns.
The consequence of this is that many of their daughters do not like red clothes and love armed weapons, and they are all obsessed with practicing martial arts, archery, and swordsmanship.
Such a situation has turned many nobles' hair gray. How can such a daughter marry into a good family in the future?
And if the empress could take over their daughter's education, they would definitely support it with both hands and feet, and would even beg the empress with tears of gratitude to accept their daughter.
Zhu Biao dismissed Han Du with a wave of his hand, and then quickly went to find Han Jingyun.
When Han Jingyun saw Zhu Biao coming in, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he said coldly: "If the emperor comes to persuade me, please don't open your mouth."
Zhu Biao knew that she was angry, so he didn't mind and stayed by Han Jingyun's side.
Han Jingyun immediately twisted his body and turned to another direction, not wanting to see Zhu Biao's appearance.
Zhu Biao smiled and said, "You don't want to know whether I agree or not?"
Han Jingyun couldn't hear Zhu Biao's hidden meaning, so he quickly turned around and said with a surprised look on his face: "The emperor agrees?"
"That's right." Zhu Biao nodded, and then said to Han Jingyun with a serious face: "But I have a few conditions. If you don't agree, then I will never agree."
"Your Majesty, please tell me, no matter how many conditions there are, I will agree!" Han Jingyun held Zhu Biao tightly with both hands.
A glimmer of light flashed in Zhu Biao's eyes, 'What I want is your words! '
After coughing twice, Zhu Biao cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Listen carefully."
"Hmm~hmm~"
Han Jingyun's head was spinning, and Zhu Biao's belly felt hot when he saw it, and he was a little imaginative.
Swallowing his saliva, he woke up and said, "First, you cannot leave the palace at will, so the academy must be built in the palace."
"Built in the palace?" Han Jingyun was immediately confused. How could the academy be built in the palace? You can't move the current academy into the palace, right?
"Listen to me first." Zhu Biao frowned.
Han Jingyun nodded quickly: "Okay, Your Majesty, please tell me."
Only then did Zhu Biao relax his brows and continued: "Since the academy has moved into the palace, it is impossible for you to teach the students, because the palace does not allow strangers to stay for a long time. Therefore, I am going to summon honorable nobles and civil servants. The woman enters the palace and becomes your student. With these two conditions, if you agree, then I will agree."
"Ah?" Han Jingyun became unhappy for a moment, "The students in the academy are all outstanding talents from all provinces, at least they are all those who have passed the exam. How can the women from various provinces compare with them? The mathematics taught by Chen Concubine, even such outstanding talents It’s very difficult to learn, how can these women learn it?”
"That's your business. Teacher, you should teach them and solve their doubts. Since you want to teach them, you should find a way to let them learn instead of complaining here. If you complain, then I think you are an academy. No need to build it." Zhu Biao shook his head, ignored Han Jingyun's coquettishness, and continued: "Besides, these are the apples of the eyes of nobles and civil servants. Although their knowledge may not be as high as that of the students in the academy, they have also read books. , If you are literate, this will save you a lot of trouble, right?"
Han Jingyun was reluctant. After all, even if he was teaching and educating people, there were two completely different feelings between good students and poor students.
Seeing this, Zhu Biao had no choice but to come up with his trump card. After a pause, he said: "Don't forget, you just said that no matter how many conditions I have, you will agree. Now there are only two conditions, and you won't agree?"
Han Jingyun looked at Zhu Biao and knew that he was not telling lies. Knowing that it is impossible to insist on teaching outside the palace, it is already good to have a compromise.
He nodded a little, "Okay."
When Zhu Biao saw Han Jingyun finally nodding, he felt relieved and said, "Then I will issue an order tomorrow to summon honorable nobles and civil servant women to study in the palace."
"Hmm~ um~" Han Jingyun's eyes suddenly lit up when he thought that she would have a student soon, and the unwillingness he felt just now completely disappeared.
Then she frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Since we are going to set up an academy in the palace, there must be a place for teaching, right?"
Zhu Biao nodded slightly, stroking his beard and said: "The Great Good Hall is still empty and can be used as a teaching place for the Queen."
Han Jingyun quickly said to Wang Yue who was standing aside: "Quickly, send someone to sweep out the Great Good Hall. Prepare tables and chairs. By the way, if you don't know what kind of tables and chairs to prepare, then send someone to the academy to take a look. Just the same as what’s there.”
"My slave, I sincerely obey your Majesty's decree." Wang Yue bowed down with a smile on his face.
