Xu Miaojin came very quickly. She was originally in the harem today, talking with Ma Enhui.
After entering the side hall, Xu Miaojin bowed slightly as a salute, went directly to Zhu Yunwen, and shouted to Shuangxi to prepare tea. Shuangxi knew that this girl could not afford to offend, so he hurriedly served her.
"Brother Emperor, are you satisfied with the talent I am looking for?"
Xu Miaojin asked with a proud look on his face.
Zhu Yunwen smiled lightly, glanced at the memorial on the table, and said, "It's up to them to decide whether these talents are useful. I'm just curious, how did you do it?"
No one in the Imperial College cooperated with Xu Miaojin, and Zhu Yunwen knew this.
After all, the supervisors of the Imperial College are quasi-civil servants of the state. They can't afford to let a quasi-civil servant cooperate with a girl.
Zhu Yunwen was also very aware of the fact that Xu Miaojin failed one after another and became the laughing stock of the Imperial College. However, in Zhu Yunwen's view, it was actually not bad for Xu Miaojin to change the boring life in the Imperial College and live a more lively and busy life.
Lest she have the idea of "living in a quiet and quiet place, isolated from the glory and wealth, and suddenly feeling enlightened", wouldn't it be a waste of life for such a strange woman to escape into Buddhism and visit ancient Buddhas with green lanterns every day?
Wouldn’t it be better to shine for the cause of women’s education in the Ming Dynasty and become a legend?
Xu Miaojin took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "There are many methods in this school. Li Zhigang is good at making strange ideas, Guo Lian is well-versed in interpersonal relationships, Wang Huai is brave and courageous... If the emperor puts these people into good use, they will surely make great achievements."
"Haha, you spent more than a month and thousands of choices before you found ten names for me. If I don't use them, wouldn't it make you feel cold? Forget it, let Li Zhigang enter the Hanlin Academy as an editor, Guo Lian was appointed as the head of the Examination Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Wang Huai was appointed as the head of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War..."
Zhu Yunwen directly appointed ten Imperial College students.
Seeing the resolute and decisive Zhu Yunwen, Xu Miaojin was also surprised and said quickly: "Brother, the emperor, will you stop observing and evaluating these people?"
"I believe you."
Zhu Yunwen said seriously.
Xu Miaojin looked at Zhu Yunwen with some changes in her eyes. It turned out that he really believed in himself, believed that he could do good things, and that he could do his best for the Ming Dynasty.
"Have you seen enough?"
When Zhu Yunwen saw Xu Miaojin staring at him, he thought his face was stained with cinnabar.
Xu Miaojin quickly lowered her head, her face slightly red, and said, "What about the girls' school?"
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly and said: "Girls' school naturally needs to be established, but are you ready?"
Xu Miaojin looked up at Zhu Yunwen and saw Zhu Yunwen with a serious face.
No one cares about women's education.
Xu Miaojin knew this deeply. She was okay, as she was pampered by her brothers at home and learned some knowledge.
But some women from noble families can only recognize some words and can barely read the accounts clearly. If conditions permit, you can even learn poetry and songs to cultivate your sentiments.
But men do not allow women to learn the knowledge of world affairs. Even if they learn it, they cannot talk about it or talk about it.
Women are not allowed to participate in politics. This is not just a rule in the palace.
The same is true for the noble family.
Even if I marry a distinguished person in the future, I cannot violate this rule. When your husband talks about things, it's best to pretend to be a fool and ignore him.
No, he must be a real fool.
Because, there is nothing to say.
Because, words are not speculative.
Because even caring may be wrong.
At that time, I can only stay lonely and cold, and what I repeat day after day is just the numbness of a walking zombie, without any personal emotions or thoughts.
Xu Miaojin didn't want to live such a life, nor did she want countless women to live such a life.
It’s just that this is a mountain!
I can't push him down by myself!
Even if Zhu Yunwen nods, it may not be actually implemented, because the cabinet will object, the six ministries will object, and all officials will object!
And by that time, I will face almost all the power in the court alone!
Can you bear it yourself?
But Xu Miaojin knew that if she quit now, the women's school would probably never appear again! And the door for women to change their destiny will be completely closed!
Is it worth taking huge risks for those who have nothing to do with you?
Xu Miaojin's eyes changed from uneasy to determined, and she saluted, "I need time, and I, Xu Miaojin, will set up the women's school!"
"Haha, okay!" Zhu Yunwen looked at Xu Miaojin with joy and said, "Then early next year, more than three months of preparation, is that enough?"
Xu Miaojin nodded repeatedly and said, "That's enough, thank you, Your Majesty."
"Let's go back to the palace. Today, I will treat you to a meal. However, you need to tell me how these talents were selected..."
"Hehe, if I tell you, please don't get angry..."
During lunch, Xu Miaojin told Zhu Yunwen and Xu Miaojin about the talent selection method. Zhu Yunwen nodded repeatedly, and Ma Enhui dropped her chopsticks several times in surprise.
Xu Miaojin caught the inner characteristics of the Imperial College students who were arrogant and looked down upon others, and told everyone directly that no one could solve this question except for the students with good academic performance.
This angered many people, and they decided to come forward to "teach Xu Miaojin a lesson."
This was still the most basic level. What frightened Ma Enhui the most was that Xu Miaojin actually locked people in a room in order to test the bravery of the prison students, and then...
Throw a python in there.
Ma Enhui felt that the meal was no longer delicious. Thinking about the terrifying scene, a group of people looked at the python and screamed repeatedly. It was probably frightening a few and fainted. If it took one bite, wouldn't it be...
"Where can I bite people? Their teeth have already been extracted."
Xu Miaojin explained.
Ma Enhui prayed secretly for the supervisor of the Imperial College. If Xu Miaojin played to death, there would be no room for reasoning.
Zhu Yunwen agreed very much with Xu Miaojin's "Miaojin" strategies.
Whether you have the courage or not, you will know once you try it. In the face of danger, who will be the first to desert, who will stay where you are to think about countermeasures, and who has already taken action.
It is clear at a glance and the effect is remarkable.
As for the seven who fainted from fright, the eight who kept having nightmares, and the dozen who complained to Jijiu, that was an internal matter within the Imperial College and had nothing to do with Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Xu Miaojin who was proud and smart, and said with a smile: "Xu Xuezheng is working hard and has merit in selecting talents. He can be promoted to Prime Minister."
"emperor!"
Ma Enhui was a little anxious.
This Xu Miaojin obviously got into trouble, why did she get promoted?
Moreover, the eunuch is more inclined to teach. He not only has the power to manage the inmates, but also has the power to punish doctors, teaching assistants, etc. If such power is given to Xu Miaojin, why not burn down the Imperial College?
Zhu Yunwen signaled Ma Enhui to relax and said to Xu Miaojin: "It's settled, but I have a condition."
"Brother Emperor, shouldn't you still let me select talents?"
Xu Miaojin put down her chopsticks and asked.
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly and said: "That's natural. Talent is the foundation of the empire. However, in addition to looking for talents, you also need to observe the Imperial College and find out the ten major shortcomings of the Imperial College education."
"Top ten shortcomings?"
Xu Miaojin and Ma Enhui were both surprised.
As the highest academic institution in the Ming Dynasty, how could the Imperial College have shortcomings?
Zhu Yunwen looked at the two of them calmly and said: "All saints know that no one is perfect, so how can the Imperial College avoid problems? Only by finding out the problems and solving them can the Imperial College truly provide talents for the court. Otherwise, there is only one way to talk and talk. Officials who govern the past and the present, how can the Ming Empire be so vigorous and prosperous?"
"When you enter the Imperial College, you will find out the problems from the methods of education, management, learning, life, etc., and then think about ways to improve them, and then submit the sacrificial wine and the business to me."
Xu Miaojin quickly stood up and saluted: "I accept the order."
"This is still a surrender..."
Ma Enhui joked.
Xu Miaojin smiled and said: "That's not true. Now I am a sixth-grade official."
Zhu Yunwen cupped his hands and said, "I have met Mr. Jian Cheng."
"No gifts, no gifts."
Xu Miaojin waved her hands and suddenly laughed.
Ma Enhui was also amused by the two.
Imperial College.
The news that Xu Miaojin was appointed as the Prime Minister caused a sensation in the Imperial College.
In order to establish his own prestige, and to win over the supervisors and ease the conflicts between them, Xu Miaojin publicly read out the emperor's appointments to the ten supervisors including Li Zhigang, Guo Lian, and Wang Huai, and said: "Although I, Xu Miaojin, am a woman, I am dedicated to the national election." Talented people, you are studying hard in the cold window, but you are also eager to serve the country? Why are you putting the cart before the horse and caring about my woman's body instead of the country's foundation? A blind leaf can't see the mountain. Aren't you the right kind of people?"
His words made the Imperial College student blush.
Shortly afterwards, a supervisor was publicly caned for failing his studies.
Xu Miaojin stepped forward and pointed out that the stick punishment was incorrect and an insult to people, and demanded that the stick punishment be changed to a ruler punishment.
That is, instead of using a big stick to hit the buttocks, use a small ruler to hit the palms of the hands.
This move won the support of all the supervisors. Xu Miaojin also knew how to take advantage of the group and jointly submitted a letter to sacrifice wine. In the end, the Imperial College abolished the rod system.
Xu Miaojin, who had a mass base, naturally stood firm in the Imperial College and began to explore the educational shortcomings of the Imperial College. At the same time, she took time to contact women from other noble families to prepare a women's school.
In the afternoon, Zhu Yunwen returned to Chang'an Palace, hugged Zhu Wenkui, and said to Ma Enhui: "When I went to court today, someone reported that Li Zengzhi had visited the Jiaofang Division during his filial piety."
"Your Majesty, the child is here. Besides, the Department of Education is under the control of the Ministry of Rites, and I have no control over it."
Ma Enhui took the child and glanced reproachfully at Zhu Yunwen.
The Jiaofangsi is responsible for welcoming distinguished guests to perform music during celebrations. It is also an official brothel with many musicians and female musicians. And these female musicians are also official prostitutes who serve the powerful.
Although according to the regulations, the female musicians in the Jiaofang only perform their skills and not their bodies, if the powerful want to get a woman with no freedom, it is just a matter of moving their fingers.
For example, if you collude with the officials of the Jiaofang, tell the girl you like and hand over some silver, the girl will "die suddenly."
When a person dies, he naturally needs to be checked off the Jiaofangsi's roster. As for where the person is taken, whether alive or dead, no one cares.
However, Zhu Yunwen cared.
