“The higher you go, the stronger the wind.”
Mo Chengying held Shen Yangui's hand tightly, indicating that she shouldn't care about these words.
Although the law did not explicitly prohibit the killing of young children, Daxia ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety. When the kings of previous dynasties punished court officials, they would mostly forgive the old and young in their families to demonstrate their benevolence.
According to the ritual of the saints, it is indeed inhumane to kill the entire family, young and old.
Before ordering the punishment of Yu Guming and the Yu family, Shen Yangui also thought deeply about it, but she always believed that one should be benevolent to people and use extraordinary measures for non-humans.
The law varies from person to person.
If you stick to the old rules and use benevolent methods to treat non-humans for the sake of your own reputation, then you are being unkind to others.
The Yu family members enjoyed the benefits of the Yu family, and the five-year-old child took pleasure in abusing the servants in the mansion, but wanted to extricate himself from it when disaster was imminent, saying that he was young and ignorant and should not be implicated.
How can anything be so cheap in the world?
In other words, the child of the Yu family is a human life, but are the sons of civilians who were harmed by the Yu family not human lives?
Enjoy its benefits and suffer its consequences.
If something is rotten from the root, should we keep it and wait for it to grow up and harm others?
Or should I give him a chance and let him come to Beijing to seek revenge later?
To cut the grass, you have to remove the roots!
Shen Yangui had no regrets about his decision, so naturally he didn't care.
"What's that? The people of Kishu say I'm a demon that eats human flesh and drinks human blood."
Shen Yangui looked at the people in front of him and put his chin on Mo Chengying's shoulder. "But if this young man in front of me likes it, even if it's a fairy, I can do it."
She had just eaten Lingzhou nectar, and when she spoke, she intentionally blew air into Mo Chengying's ear, and her breath really smelled like orchid.
"Qingqing."
Mo Chengying turned his head away, and Shen Yangui felt a tightness around her waist. Their bodies pressed against each other, and then she heard him say in her ear, "You're done."
After being busy for so many days, he didn't want to go out today.
It’s best if you don’t even have to get out of bed.
Shen Yangui said that he would leave tomorrow and wanted to walk around the streets of Lingzhou City to see if those young people who were cheating and deceiving were still there.
After a lot of coaxing and persuading, he finally came out with her reluctantly.
Now that he got this signal, he had no choice but to go back and try both hard and soft tactics.
There was a voice in his ear saying, "No wonder they say the sting of a wasp is the most poisonous, and women are the most poisonous. They won't even let children go." Mo Chengying put his hand to his lips and was about to blow the whistle to call the blue horse.
Who knew that the people behind him were in turmoil.
He quickly carried Shen Yangui aside.
A voice from the crowd questioned, "You are a bunch of reckless men. How dare you hit someone? I am a scholar!"
"'You guys'?" Shen Yangui stood on tiptoe and looked at the crowd. "It looks like they were beaten up by a group of people."
——"Hit someone? I hit a beast. When did I hit someone?"
——"That's right! You two little bastards, you call yourself scholars, how dare you insult the princess?"
——"Let alone those little bastards of the Yu family, even the dogs of the Yu family must be dragged out and chopped into pieces and skinned and pulled out!"
——"The princess didn't put you two in the dog cage. This is truly a great kindness in the world!"
The common people surrounded the two men and cursed and spit on them.
"What? You dare to do it but not let others say it?"
"If you want to keep people from talking, what's the difference between this and the Yu family?"
——"No difference? I think you two are the remnants of the Yu family! Come on! Follow me to see the official!"
——"Yes! Go see the official! The princess said that the remnants of the Yu family in Lingzhou must be completely eliminated!"
The common people gathered together, pushing and shoving, and insisted that the two scholars go to the government office to discuss the matter.
This was not a big deal, so there was no need for Shen Yangui to come forward and resolve it personally. Instead, she was afraid of being seen, so she pulled Mo Chengying and turned into the alley next to her.
Although he didn't care much when he was not understood, Shen Yangui still felt warm in his heart when he was protected by everyone.
Yellow leaves occasionally fall from the trees, and the common people go to the streets to join in the fun. Every house is closed and there is no one around.
Shen Yangui held Mo Chengying's hand unscrupulously, and occasionally turned back to talk to him.
The two of them strolled deeper into the alley.
"I have an idea."
"My husband is all ears."
"I want to open Enco."
"Open Enke?"
"Ok!"
Shen Yangui nodded, "For scholars in Lingzhou who want to participate in the Tongshi exam, the first condition is to obey the Yu family. Otherwise, they will be like Qi Xiuyuan, who has great talent but can only be a pearl left in the ocean. How can those selected in this way be considered talents?"
Mo Chengying also thought it was feasible. Otherwise, people like the two just now, who read books of sages and served as slaves of the Yu family, did not care about the people at heart. Even if they became officials, they would only harm others.
Be it Lingzhou or other prefectures and counties, they must never fall into the hands of such people again.
"Then according to my wife's words, the Lingzhou Autumn Examination that just happened in early August does not need to be reviewed and can be directly invalidated."
Of course it should be so. Shen Yangui smiled and raised his index finger, shaking it slowly in front of his eyes.
"That's not enough."
Mo Chengying liked listening to his wife talk the most. He asked with interest, "Isn't this enough?"
"During the last few years of the late emperor's reign, the court was busy fighting for the throne and had no time to care about the local areas. Yu Guming also strengthened himself and became more rampant at that time. Therefore, from that time on, all the scholars and candidates from Lingzhou were disqualified and sent back to their hometowns to retake the exam."
Shen Yangui wanted to select someone from the Ministry of Rites to preside over the Tongshi examination that would be held in Lingzhou two months later, as well as the provincial examination before the New Year. He also wanted to hold an encyclopedia in the capital next year and add the spring examination.
At the same time, special examinations for women were held in Kishu, Pingwu and Kyoto.
"This winter, the four places will hold the Tongshi and Xiangshi exams simultaneously. Next year, both men and women will take part in the Chunwei and the Palace exams together."
"Isn't it too hasty?"
Mo Chengying calculated the time. The Chunshan Academy Girls' School had only been established for over a year, and the Qingshan Academy Girls' School had only been established for a few months. Not to mention that there were few students, some of them probably didn't even recognize all the characters.
I want these people to write articles...
It’s not that he looks down on anyone, it’s just that the current situation is not optimistic.
Mo Chengying had to pour cold water on this, "Not everyone is as talented as you."
Shen Yangui knew that her rapid progress was not only due to her talent, but also due to the influence of her brother when she was young, her life outside the boudoir and her life in the market, as well as the guidance and teaching of her mentor Jing Ming.
Other girls do not have such unique conditions and cannot expect to achieve amazing results in just a few months.
difficult.
Shen Yangui also knew it was difficult.
"Chunshan Academy always has a shortage of students. Cheng Yijin is so worried that she goes to various schools to lobby them. But it's been a year, and the school is still not full."
"Daxia has been in power for so many years, and not all men are educated. This situation should be within your expectations."
"If there is only 'expected' but no 'human intervention', then what is the point of expecting it?"
Mo Chengying patiently explained, "I know you are anxious, but the women's school is not favored by the court. If you force the issue, the old men in the court will definitely seize the result of the spring siege next year and force you to give up the women's school."
"Don't underestimate these old men. 'Civil servants die for remonstration, and military servants die for battle.' They are more stubborn than you think. If this happens, the whole court will be messed up by them."
What he was worried about was not the girls' school, but the fact that Shen Yangui would be preparing to take the position after returning to Beijing. If she put herself in the whirlpool at this time, she would lose more than she gains.
After weighing the pros and cons, Mo Chengying still insisted: "It won't be too late to discuss it after you succeed to the throne in the next two years."
When the two of them argued about serious matters, they never gave in or compromised unconditionally because of their feelings for each other, and Shen Yangui did not need him to give in without reason.
"I know what you're worried about, but I don't expect them to pass the imperial examination this time..."
What a tragic situation it would be if none of them passed the exam?
"In that case, we should not be anxious." Mo Chengying said firmly.
