Chapter 1093 Let a woman hold up half the sky
Why does Han Yi value teachers so much and give such high treatment? It is because there are too few people who recognize numbers and recognize words these days. Ninety-nine percent of people do not recognize words, and those who recognize words are basically monopolized by the nobles. Therefore, Han Yi has long set his sights on a group, which is women, especially women from aristocratic families.
These women are very talented, especially in the early Tang Dynasty. At that time, women were not completely bound. Women from noble families read a lot and their thoughts were more open. They are also struggling now and are unwilling to be suppressed too much, hoping to get more freedom. Therefore, Han Yi feels that the education career is very suitable for them, especially in elementary schools, which is tailor-made for them. They face innocent children. There is no such thing as men and women who are not allowed to teach or kiss each other. Moreover, women have natural maternal nature, which is a perfect supplement.
But to do this, we must first get the approval of a person, who is the king of women - Queen Wu.
Imperial Garden!
Han Yi
"Han Yi, you did not disappoint me!"
Wu Meiniang looked at Han Yi with a little praise in her eyes and said, "I have heard a little about Tubo and Tuyuhun. Although the limelight was stolen by Li Yi's mansion, in fact, His Majesty and I know that the main contribution to this is to you."
Han Yi said modestly: "The queen is wrong, it is not that she is generous, but she doesn't want Lu Dongzan to succeed. The queen is amazing and it should be seen that Lu Dongzan comes to Li Yi's mansion, mainly hoping to provoke the ministers and Li Yi's mansion and then seek profit from it. I don't want him to succeed. Moreover, when facing outsiders, no matter what, we should unite, not restrain each other."
Wu Meiniang pursed her lips and smiled, "I knew you would say that. Your Majesty and I were so tired of praising you about this." After a pause, she said, "But you have to worry about this matter. Li Yifu may not be Lu Dongzan's opponent."
Although Wu Meiniang used a group of cruel officials in history, it was purely a political struggle. She was actually very powerful in employing people. She used Li Yifu mainly for political struggle. She knew that if Li Yifu was used for diplomacy, it would only mess up the matter. In this regard, Li Yifu was definitely not a rival to Lu Dongzan. It turned out that this was originally based on Changsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang and others. These people were evenly matched with Lu Dongzan, but these were all her enemies. What she thought was that she should not give Guanlong Group a chance, she was afraid that her people would mess up the matter. Li Zhi could only use Changsun Wuji and the others. Then, in her hands, the only available talent was Han Yi.
Her meaning is very simple. Let Li Yifu show his reputation and prepare for future political struggles, but you still have to deal with the specific matters.
Han Yi accepted it happily and bowed: "Queen, please rest assured, I will definitely not succeed if those with ulterior motives."
Wu Meiniang smiled and nodded, saying, "By the way, why are you here to find me today?"
"Oh! It's about Zhaoyi Academy!"
Han Yi said: "About Zhaoyi College teachers, they have been recruiting almost all. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be able to teach in the spring next year. It's just--!"
Speaking of this, he wanted to speak but stopped.
Wu Meiniang frowned and said, "It's just what?"
Han Yi said: "But during this recruitment process, I found that there are actually not many people who can serve as teachers. Most of them are poor students who go to Beijing to take the exam. Their focus must be on the scientific examination. The scale of Zhaoyi Academy is not large now. If the teachers gradually increase in the future, we should prepare as soon as possible."
Wu Meiniang nodded slightly and said, "Most of the truly knowledgeable people are from aristocratic origins. Even if they are not from aristocratic origins, they will not come to Zhaoyi Academy. Didn't Shandong gentry also co-found the gentry academy? They all admire Shandong gentry, and they will definitely go to the gentry academy. Is there any way you can do this?"
Han Yi said: "I have been thinking about it all the time, but the only way is to be a woman."
"woman?"
Wu Meiniang was slightly surprised.
Han Yi nodded and said, "Actually, women from noble families are very talented, and the queen is the best proof."
Wu Meiniang smiled softly and said, "Don't praise me for this. If you can help, I will definitely help you. Zhaoyi Academy is also very important to me. If you can't help, even if you tell the sky, I can't do anything." She knew Han Yi too much and could not let her fool her.
"The Queen's Holy Ming!" Han Yi shouted awkwardly, and said, "These noble women do not need to take care of their husbands and children at home. They have very good resources at home. In fact, they spend most of their days at home and do nothing, but the people lack talents to recognize numbers and words. I think this is a pity."
Wu Meiniang frowned slightly and said, "What you mean is that you want to invite these noble women, Zhaoyi Academy to teach."
Han Yi nodded and said, "That's exactly!"
Wu Meiniang sighed softly: "It's not that I don't want to, but those noble families are so strict that it is impossible for their daughter to show up in public. In my opinion, this is very difficult."
Han Yi said: "If we deliberately emphasize men and women, it is probably difficult, but if we promote it from the perspective of doing good, then it is still possible. Zhaoyi Academy was originally a kind thing for the queen to show kindness to the people. Throughout history, no saint has said that doing good is divided into men and women."
Wu Meiniang nodded slightly, and felt that there was something wrong.
Han Yi continued: "More importantly, Zhaoyi Academy was founded by the Empress. The Empress is the first woman in the world, and it is reasonable to use women. Even the word Zhaoyi refers to women. On the contrary, I think it would be a very strange thing if Zhaoyi Academy does not have a female teacher. Moreover, I am a sparsely populated in the Tang Dynasty, but it is vast and wealthy. If all the burdens are on men, then men can't bear it. Therefore, I have always encouraged women to help men share some responsibilities. Isn't men farming and weaving just to let women participate in labor? Moreover, many women go to the fields to farm. Therefore, I think we can try to let women participate more in labor and reduce men's pressure."
Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "You are quite reasonable. The turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the several battles during the Zhenguan period were all men. Therefore, even if women don't want to, they must participate in labor. And I have always believed that women's abilities are more than that. This is indeed feasible. So what do you need me to do?"
Han Yi said: "I hope the queen can come forward in person, exert her appeal and encourage women to join the ranks of teachers."
Wu Meiniang nodded and said very readily: "I can try it, but I can't guarantee whether it succeeds or not."
Han Yi smiled and said, "If the queen is willing to come forward, then this is a sure thing, because many women admire the queen very much."
Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "Don't say this for now. If it doesn't work, I don't know where to put my face."
Han Yi's eyes turned and said, "If the queen is worried, why not try someone first."
Wu Meiniang said, "Who?"
Han Yi said: "Yang Feixue!"
"she?"
"Um!"
Han Yi said: "As far as I know, Yang Feixue actually wants to come to Zhaoyi Academy, but General Yang does not allow it."
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Meiniang said, "But since General Yang does not allow it, how can I force it?"
Han Yi said: "General Yang refused, it was just because General Yang didn't want Yang Feixue to show up in public. The reason was very fragile. The queen was Yang Feixue's aunt. As a niece, she did something for her aunt, and she was a good deed, let alone as a people, she should support the queen. So this is the most appropriate for both public and private reasons. The reason is obviously greater than that of General Yang's unsubmitted. The queen can write a letter to General Yang and ask him if he could allow Yang Feixue to teach at Zhaoyi College. If General Yang nodded, Zhaoyi College would recruit female teachers at that time, other nobles would not disturb him."
Wu Meiniang thought about it, my mother was also from the Yang family. It was probably because of me that Yang Sine was promoted to general. We are on the side. You should support me and nodded and said, "Okay! I'll try it. It's not right!" As she said that, she suddenly looked at Han Yi and said, "What is your relationship with Yang Feixue?"
This woman has a very sensitive sense of smell!
Han Yi said without changing his face: "Yang Feixue can be regarded as a confidante of his minister."
"Confidant?"
Wu Meiniang looked at Han Yi suspiciously.
"Um!"
Han Yi nodded calmly.
This confidante can understand n meanings.
Something is a trick!
Wu Meiniang was surprised when she thought about it. Xiao and Yang were both the best families, and they were even more deadly. Xiao Wuyi was Li Zhi's niece and Yang Feixue was her niece. How to do this? She wanted to ask clearly, but she felt that it might be more troublesome to ask clearly. If it was true, then she would not support Han Yi. After thinking about it, she still thought it was not known. Instead, she said: "When it comes to this, I remembered another thing."
Han Yi pondered slightly and said, "Is the Queen talking about the Queen's Police?"
Wu Meiniang nodded and smiled, "Tell me honestly, did you ask Wuyi to mention this matter to me?"
Han Yi hurriedly said, "The Queen's clarification is definitely not my idea, but Wuyi's own idea."
Wu Meiniang asked, "Then do you think this matter is feasible?"
She was indeed moved. Han Yi was a little silent and said, "Empress, this Queen is different from a female teacher. The female teacher at Zhaoyi Academy can be said to be a kind act. The saints cannot prevent women from doing good, so they can cleverly avoid secular etiquette. However, the royal police is a formal profession and has a rank. This has never been seen before, and it has always been a man's business. Therefore, this will impact secular etiquette. According to the opinions of the ministers, the possibility of success is very small. I am afraid that Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu will oppose it. But then again, the queen police does have the value of existence, and we still have to wait for an opportunity."
“Waiting for the opportunity?”
Wu Meiniang said curiously.
