With the system traveling through time, the queen always becomes a mother painlessly
Chapter 285 Spreading New Ideas
The news that Mr. Zhiya was Nanyan had been spreading for several days, but the Emperor and the Empress did not say anything. Everyone assumed that the Empress was Zhiya.
Zhiya's paintings were not only liked by many scholars, but also by many teachers and court officials who loved paintings.
When the court officials heard that Nan Yan was Mr. Zhiya, they were all surprised.
They never expected that they had seen Mr. Zhiya, whom they had always admired, many times.
The court officials had no doubt about the rumor.
Because they had been to the prime minister's study.
Wasn't the precious portrait in the prime minister's study painted by the empress? At that time, the prime minister was very proud to show them that it was a portrait painted by the empress herself.
At that time, they also felt that the Queen's style was very similar to Mr. Zhiya's. Both were realists, and the Prime Minister they painted looked like a real person.
Why didn’t they think of Mr. Zhiya?
That day, just after the morning court session, Nan Hui was surrounded by many officials.
"Prime Minister, I heard that the Empress is Mr. Zhiya. Do you have any paintings of the Empress? I am willing to pay a large sum of money for one."
"Prime Minister, I would also like to ask for a painting."
"..."
Although no one knows how Yan'er's identity was leaked, the fact that the emperor and Yan'er have not stopped the rumor until now shows that they don't mind it being leaked.
Then there would be no need for him to deliberately conceal Yan'er's identity.
Nan Hui looked at the courtiers surrounding him and said truthfully, "Apart from our respective portraits, there are no other paintings of the queen in my house."
The courtiers looked disappointed.
There are no paintings of the Empress even in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so where else can they be found?
Since Shang Yue was very busy during this period, when he learned about this matter, almost everyone knew that Mr. Zhiya was Nan Yan.
Yan'er had been hiding this identity of hers, and no one knew how it had suddenly been revealed.
He put down the memorial in his hand, left the imperial study and went to Changle Palace, where he found Nan Yan in the study.
"Yan'er, do you know that the fact that you are Zhiya has been leaked?"
If we had known it earlier, we could have sent someone to keep it secret, but now everyone knows it and there's nothing we can do.
Nan Yan raised her head and hummed. She looked at the man who walked in with a worried look on his face with a smile on her face and explained, "Of course I know about this matter, because I was the one who spread it."
"What?" Shang Yue was surprised. He strode over and sat next to her, looking puzzled. "Haven't you been hiding this identity all along? Why did you suddenly announce it?"
Nan Yan did not answer, but asked: "Do you remember that I once told you that I wanted to open a women's academy and improve the status of women?"
Shang Yue answered without hesitation, "Of course I remember, but is there any necessary connection between this incident and your identity being exposed?"
He really supports Yan'er in doing these things. He believes that daughters are as important as sons, and he hates those who favor sons over daughters.
During the time he traveled with Yan'er, he met many people who favored boys over girls, and he hated those who wasted their daughters.
"Of course it is related. In addition to my identities as the Queen and Zhiya, I am first of all a woman. If you reveal that I am Zhiya, it will be easier for people to believe that women can also have a bright future."
"Yan'er is truly a kind-hearted lady." Shang Yue praised.
He knew that Nan Yan was very busy these days, but because he was busy too, he never asked her what she was busy with. It turned out that she was doing these things.
Strike while the iron is hot, Nanyan secretly spreads a series of messages that are conducive to the awakening of women's consciousness, such as women are as capable as men, women are self-reliant, women can also have a bright future, women are great for serving their parents-in-law and feeding children at home, etc.
At this time, the idea that men are superior to women is deeply rooted in people's minds, and these practices have little effect.
Most men felt that these ideas challenged their authority, and they went home to warn their wives and children to behave themselves and not believe in the lies outside.
Many women are also poisoned by traditional ideas and educate their daughters harshly when they think those ideas are correct.
Nan Yan had guessed this long ago. Concepts that have been passed down for thousands of years cannot be changed in a short time.
She sent people to spread these ideas that went against traditional concepts again and again.
Let people use her own deeds to convince everyone of the correctness of these concepts.
So this is what happened on the street.
"Why can women only stay at home to take care of their husbands and children? Look at the Empress, she built dams, opened a charity, discovered potatoes, and has superb painting skills...Except for the Emperor, isn't she better than all the men?"
However, as soon as he said this, many people still refuted, "The Queen is a fairy sent by God to save us, how can she be the same as an ordinary woman?"
"Yes! The Queen is different from ordinary people."
"..."
"The Queen said that she likes reading, and she learned a lot from reading a lot of books. For example, she learned about building a dam from a book. Now the dam has been built for more than ten years, and it is still very solid. She also learned about the discovery of edible potatoes from a book... Do you think reading is very useful?"
"There are many people who have read books, why does the Queen know all this? Isn't it because you are different?"
Seeing so many people refuting the differences between the Queen and ordinary women, the people sent by Nan Yan to spread the idea had to stop and change direction.
"What do you mean a woman without talent is virtuous? Girls should read more books. Reading books will help them understand reason. Look at the young ladies from wealthy families. Which one of them can't read and write?"
"That's true. Young ladies from wealthy families are indeed literate."
Some people agreed, while others objected.
"A young lady from a wealthy family who can read and write is expected to manage the household. How can someone who can't read manage such a large mansion? We don't have a large business to manage, so why would we need to learn to read? It would be a waste of money."
"I think you are so ignorant because you have never read books. If you have read books, you will definitely know the benefits of reading."
After unremitting efforts, there were some slight effects after two months.
However, these effects are only seen in families that already love their daughters.
Before they heard of these concepts, even if they loved their daughters, they just wanted them to marry into a good family, serve their parents-in-law, and be virtuous.
But my daughter doesn’t have to do these things when she is at home. Will she be able to bear doing these things after she gets married?
They began to think about what it meant to truly love a daughter.
I want to send my daughter to study! But now the academies are all men, and although there is no clear rule not to accept women, they feel that these academies will not accept women.
What's more, there are so many men in the academy. Even among the scholars, there are some hypocritical people. They are not at ease sending their daughters to the academy.
