The ancients shocked the old feudal society when they watched modern women raising babies.

"I once had an adventure, and that adventure taught me that as long as it is beneficial to the people, they will always accept it subtly. If we don't do it, society will not progress."

An Ran now always takes Yun Shuzhao with him to court. If Shu Zhao doesn't understand anything, he will always ask An Ran after going to court. An Ran does not hesitate to teach.

In September of the 237th year of the Tianyun Dynasty, Tianyun Kingdom ushered in the first imperial examination for women to participate.

"Big news, women can register for this year's imperial examination. Women can participate in the imperial examination."

"what?"

A group of women were washing clothes by the river. Someone from the village brought the news. The group of women stopped what they were doing in shock.

"Yang Xiaobao, are you telling the truth?"

"Aunt Yang, these words are truer than gold. The emperor's list has been posted in the city. If you don't believe it, you can go to the city to see it."

Yang Xiaobao is the loudspeaker in the village, and he also has to go to other places to spread the news.

Ladies, you look at me and I look at you. They are all a little dumbfounded. The clothes in the hands of several women floated into the river without even noticing it.

"Women can also take part in the imperial examination. Does this mean that women can be officials?"

Aunt Yang covered her mouth and exclaimed, "This has never happened before in history for a woman to be an official."

"How can a woman be an official? A woman should stay at home, look after her husband and raise her children, and do housework."

Aunt Li absolutely didn't believe it. She curled her lips and shook her head: "We women, don't believe these people. It's proper to take care of your children at home."

The others nodded in agreement with Aunt Li: "Aunt Li is right, we don't have that fate."

There were sighs one after another by the river: "Hey, we women are all destined to die."

Aunt Zhang, who was standing next to her with a loud voice, tried it like a joke: "That's not necessarily true. Our emperors of Tianyun Kingdom are all women. What will happen to women becoming officials in the future?"

When everyone heard this, it seemed to make sense: "Yes, then which one of you is going to take part in the imperial examination? Aunt Zhang, are you going?"

"Hahahaha, I don't know a single Chinese character, so I'm going to make people laugh in vain." Aunt Zhang laughed so hard.

"Hey, Aunt Yang, didn't your girl go to school? Why don't you sign her up?"

Only then did everyone remember that when girls were encouraged to enter school the year before last, Aunt Yang's family was the only one in the village to send their girls. Other families send their sons away and leave their girls to work at home, thinking that there is no point in the girl going to school.

Aunt Yang's family only gave birth to two girls and no sons. Their family has always been looked down upon by the villagers.

When the school opened in the town, Aunt Yang's husband just thought that by sending the girl to study in the town, she might be able to make friends with young men from wealthy families. When the time came, she would marry a wealthy son-in-law, which would also help their family look up in the village.

Aunt Yang, who was squatting by the river washing clothes, became more and more excited as she thought about it. Her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest. If their girl became a female official, it would be more glorious than marrying a wealthy husband.

"Aunt Yang, you didn't take your clothes, eh, Aunt Yang."

Aunt Yang could no longer hear what others were saying, so she threw down her clothes and hurried home to discuss it with the old man.

At night, Aunt Yang and her husband discussed it and signed up! Both girls sign up!

Yang Daya and Yang Erya returned home under the setting sun and happily explained to their parents.

"Mom and Dad, we have signed up to take the imperial examination."

"You go and take the imperial examination!"

Four people spoke at the same time, and the whole family was stunned on the spot: "Hahahahaha."

"Mom and Dad, we thought you didn't agree. We were worried that you would scold us for showing up."

"Why don't you agree? This is a good opportunity to shine. You must take the exam well and make those who look down on us regret it."

The Yang family held their breath, this was their only chance to turn around.

The news that the Yang sisters participated in the imperial examination spread in the village, and no one in the village thought highly of them.

"Hey, Da Ya Er Ya is endorsing it again. Women, it's better to stay at home and take care of your husband and raise your children. Those who are so public, be careful not to find your husband's family in the future."

"Hahaha, Aunt Yang, your girl is really going to take the imperial examination. Don't be scared to tears when the time comes."

"Your girl can't study like this. When you are an official, you have to socialize. Our son goes out to meet people. Hey, but it is inconvenient for a girl to go out after all, hahaha."

Everyone in the village watched the Yang family having fun. The Yang sisters were very high-spirited. They finally managed to get ahead, and they didn't rely on the opportunity to get married, and they studied hard.

On the day of the county examination, Aunt Yang's family sent two girls to the examination room. There were only two girls in the examination room, including two from her family. Aunt Yang was nervous and proud at the same time.

Being able to take the exam is already better than most people, isn't it?

The two girls also strived for success. They passed the county examination, government examination, college examination and the township examination all the way. The two girls became the candidates of the entire county.

"The Yang family is making a difference, and Yangjiacun is on fire." People from all over the county came to Yangjiacun to visit the two female candidates, and the Yang family suddenly became a popular family.

"Hurry up and open a shrine for the two girls." The village chief picked a good day and summoned the most respected people in the village to give the two girls a family tree. "

"Dad Yang, your smoking pole is pretty good."

"That's right. My girls went to the county to buy them. Hey, they are now married, and people from the county keep inviting them to be guests."

Father Yang was smiling from ear to ear. He wanted to show off to everyone he saw, my daughter. His life was finally worth it.

On the day when the results of the general examination were released, the Yangjia Village collectively went out to see the results of the two girls from the Yang family.

Yang Daya successfully entered the list, but Erya unfortunately failed.

"Hey, I'm just saying, the ancestral graves can't emit smoke twice, and they can't let all the good things go to their family."

"Hey, Erya is already very good. She is now a civil servant in our county. She is also a public servant. The few boys in our village have not passed the exam."

Although Er Ya was not selected, the family was not disappointed. To reach this point, it was already a chance. How could they dare to dream of two girls being selected?

However, Erya encountered a problem. Daya was preparing for the palace examination. The village chief sent people to guard her and not allow anyone to disturb her. Whether the first female champion in the history of Yangjia Village depends on Yang Daya. The hope of the village rests on Daya.

As for Erya, matchmakers from all over the country have come to propose marriage, almost breaking the threshold of the Yang family. Da Ya and Er Ya are actually ordinary-looking. If it were before, the Yang family would never have dared to imagine that their daughter would be proposed for marriage by so many people. After all, only great beauties have such treatment.

Nowadays, being able to marry a female scholar will make the family more proud than marrying a great beauty.

Erya couldn't bear the disturbance and directly rejected all the matchmakers: "I'm still young, and I'm ready to fight again."

"You are already seventeen, so you are not too young. You will be over 20 when the next imperial examination takes place. If you don't get married, you will be an old girl."

"Yes, you can get married and continue taking the exam."

Everyone tried to persuade Erya, but Erya was so annoyed that she drove everyone away in anger.

On the day of Da Ya's palace examination, Er Ya went to join the army.

The King of War's army is recruiting female soldiers to engage in some management and preparation work, but the requirements are very high. They must be able to read and write, and it is best to have a good reputation.

I heard that this was the first of its kind set by Princess Yun Shuzhao, the daughter of the War King, who wanted to train a group of brave and resourceful female soldiers.
