The women's school was proposed by an Changqing. Yanzhou is located at the border. Because it has been infected by Beidi for many years, it has developed a strong folkway. Even women dare to carry a kitchen knife to the battlefield in times of crisis. There have been several anti-Di heroines who do not give way to their eyebrows.

Because of Yu and an Xianyu, an Changqing never thought that women were worse than men. Just like an Xianyu, if not as a woman, with an Xianyu's talent, or to participate in the imperial examination is also made. An Changqing pushed herself and others, feeling that there was too much criticism on women in this world, so she proposed to set up a women's school in the hope that border women could also read and read.

When he originally proposed it, he thought he would be opposed, but he did not want several seemingly pedantic and stubborn old men to oppose it strongly, but instead considered it and expressed his approval. In the eyes of the Gaomen clan in Beijing, Yanzhou is a barren and uncivilized land. But it is such an uncivilized place that without the so-called "rules" established by great families, it has a more open and tolerant atmosphere than Beijing.

After the proposal was perfected, girls' schools were set up one after another. for a time, many women went to school, but there were not enough students, so the government published a list to hire female students.

Even if an Xianyu did not bring it up on her own initiative, an Changqing was going to find an opportunity to ask an Xianyu for her opinion. An Hyun-Yu did a good job of learning, and if she was only locked up in a deep mansion, it would be a waste of her talent.

Seeing that her face was perturbed, an Changqing raised her hand and touched her head. soft voice said, "Girls' school has just started. If you go, you will have to bear hardships. Have you made up your mind?"

An Xianyu nodded firmly: "I've made up my mind."

Looking at her appearance, it was clear that she had thought about it a long time ago, and it was only today that she plucked up the courage to say it. When she failed to protect her sister in her last life, an Changqing was no longer obsessed with her marriage, but only hoped that she could live a happy and comfortable life. With the power and position of him and Xiao Zhige, even if an Xianyu does not marry all her life, no one dares to gossip.

"I'll take you there myself tomorrow." An Changqing looked gentle and said with encouragement, "it's good that you have something you want to do."

An Anyu had thought that such an unusual idea would be lectured by her mother and brother, but she never expected that he should agree so easily, and even her mother did not say much. She opened her eyes wide in surprise, and it took a long time for her lips to smile, and the fundus was full of joy.

……

An Changqing was true to her word and personally sent her to girls' school the next day.

The dean of the women's school is a woman in her forties. She used to be a famous talented woman in Yanzhou. After her husband died, she had no children and was a widow. After the establishment of the girls' school, she was invited out of the mountain. An Xianyu needs to pass her examination if she wants to go to girls' school.

An Changqing just sent her over to boost her morale, but she didn't expect to go through the back door. So he sent someone over and waited in the vestibule. An Xianyu went to the back with the dean.

Before sitting on a cup of tea, saw Qi Wei swaggering over with Xie Ling.

"what are you doing here?" An Changqing picked her eyebrows and her eyes fell on Qi Wei.

Qi Wei smiled like a fool and said righteously, "We deeply admire when we hear that Miss an is going to be a teacher, so we came to have a look."

Xie Ling gave him a sideways glance, and it was clear that he had been pulled here by force.

An Changqing gave him a meaningful look and beckoned them to sit down and wait.

Without sitting for a while, I saw someone coming again. This time it was Zhou Helan, whose usual expressionless face. When he saw Qi Wei and Xie Ling, his eyes flashed slightly and his back straightened up and saluted: "I heard that the women's school has just been set up, and I happen to have a batch of pen, ink and paper here that I am willing to donate to the girls' school." do a little bit. "

An Changqing frowned and looked at him inquisitively. Zhou Helan hung her head slightly, looking blurred.

The idea of being pressed down by an Changqing yesterday popped up again, but there was some uncertainty. He nodded to Zhou Helan and asked him to sit down.

After waiting for about half an hour, an Xianyu came out with the academician. Both of them were surprised to see the three more people in the hall.

An Changqing explained. Hearing that Zhou Helan was willing to donate pen and ink, the dean looked much kinder and solemnly thanked him.

An Hyun-Yu stood beside the dean, looking brightly at the past, then quickly lowered her eyes and blessed him.

Zhou Helan said, "there is no need to thank you", then retreated behind an Changqing.

On one side, Qi Wei, dissatisfied with being ignored, came forward generously and said that he would also donate money. When there was a lack of everything in women's school, the academician naturally refused to know it and thanked her with a smile on her face.

Qi Wei quietly went to see an Xianyu, but saw that an Xianyu did not look at him at all, but slowly went to an Changqing's side.

Qi Wei: "."

When a party parted, Qi Wei tugged at Xie Ling's sleeve and asked him sadly, "am I not enough for Yushu to face the wind today?" Why didn't Miss Ann even look at me? "

Xie Ling dodged in disgust and looked at him sympathetically: "maybe they already have someone in mind."

Qi Wei stared: "you don't have a raven mouth!"

Not wanting to argue with him, Xie Ling looked at him like a fool: "Don't come to me to drink with you in the future."

In mid-September, an Xianyu officially went to girls' school. In addition to giving lessons to the students and helping the dean deal with women's school affairs, an Hyun-Yu soon got busy and simply lived in the girls' school and came back only during the ten-day break every month.

Zhou Helan stayed in Yanzhou for a few days, then went west to Liangzhou and took the caravan to escort the second batch of raw jadeite stones to the south.

When he returned to Yanzhou this time, he also brought 60% of the income of the original emerald stone. The amount is so huge that it is called an Changqing's astonishment. With this batch of raw jade stones alone, the money earned will be able to support tens of thousands of Yanzhou officers and soldiers. The wealth of the south is evident.

All these were told by Xiao Zhige to an Changqing later, but he sighed deeply and said that the south would not be peaceful for long.

An Changqing was puzzled, so Xiao Zhige analyzed it to him one by one.

"the southern states have always been dominated by the local giants. The garrison of the government is also subject to constraints. These people almost control the whole field in the south. On the other hand, ordinary people can only rent fields. More than half of the annual harvest will be handed over to the powerful landlords. Only a small part of it can be used to make ends meet. "

The south is indeed rich, but it is the powerful landlords who are rich. Otherwise, the original emerald stones shipped to the south will not be sought after in a short time. It is just that the powerful people are tired of old tricks and spend a lot of money when they see a new thing. They compete for the first price in order to have fun, but also to compete with other countries.

If this situation continues, the south may be at peace for a while. However, when Zhou Helan went north, he heard that all the southern states and counties had drought and little rain this year, and the fields were about to fail. Once the harvest fails, ordinary people will not even be able to make ends meet, and I am afraid there will be trouble again.

The news of unrest in the south had never been heard of by an Changqing in his last life, but he also knew that if there had been chaos in the north one after another, how could the south be calm?

But he never thought that Xiao Zhige's prophecy would come true so quickly.

At the end of September, news came from Zhou Helan that people in Guangping, Qinghe and Ding'an counties rose up. This time the unrest was even more brutal than the original unrest in Surabaya.

The people of the south have been exploited and oppressed by powerful landlords for many years. The fields failed to harvest this autumn. These people who rented land not only failed to keep enough food, but also owed a lot of debt. The local mighty people are used to oppressing these people at the bottom, and they do not show any mercy in the face of natural disasters. in the face of such difficult circumstances, they have become even worse. Those who fail to pay rent will charge interest on the money and food owed according to the "lamb interest".

The lamb owed a debt of one or two, and such a heavy burden finally forced these people facing the loess to a dead end.

The people in the south were not like the Baiding Army in Surabaya, which hated the heavy tax corvee of the imperial court, and after the uprising, they only slaughtered the rich households in collusion between the local county government and the government and businessmen. But the people of the south hate the mighty people of these fish and meat villages. After the uprising, the local Haoqiang family was first slaughtered and carved up the money and food.

In response, the local mighty and uprising forces were the same as the uprising army, never dying, and the southern states and counties were strewn with blood and corpses. On the contrary, it is the incompetence of the government, and the power has been controlled by powerful forces for many years. In the face of such a grim situation, they have no choice but to ask the imperial court for help.

When the news came back to Beijing, it was already the end of September. Emperor Anqing was originally not as healthy as he used to be. after seeing the folding son, he vomited a mouthful of blood. Prince Xiao Qi eucalyptus naturally supervised the country and summoned the prime minister and others to discuss the matter.

The newly appointed Taifu Temple Qing was still benevolent and suggested that the prince send people to thoroughly investigate the annexation of land by the great powers in the south, wipe out the great powers in the south, and at the same time exempt the people from taxes and open warehouses for disaster relief. After all, the knife edge of the people's uprising is Haoqiang, if the court can appease well, but can get a good reputation.

The minister of Taifu Temple was promoted to the post of Shaoqing of Taifu Temple and was originally the sheriff of Changyang County. The situation in Beijing is not clear enough. What he does not know is that the reason why the great powers in the south dare to act so recklessly is that they are inextricably linked with the officials of these great families and even the two princes.

If the south is rich, how can these people not intervene?

With a sneer, the prince refuted the proposal of the minister of Taifu Temple and said in a cold voice, "these untouchables dare to revolt, how can they be easily let go?"

On that day, the fast horse stamped with the seal of the emperor was sent to the south, and after the troops stationed in the south received the order, the soldiers poured out to destroy thousands of insurgents. After fighting for a long time, the people of the south were waiting for the massacre of the imperial army.

The people were in an uproar. However, it was not that the prince expected to quell the unrest, but the wanton massacre provoked a greater counterattack, and these people rallied into an army, desperate to fight against the army. The defenders in Qingzhou, Yongzhou, Pengzhou and other places were originally negligent in training and became tired and lazy. Now in the face of these red-eyed people unexpectedly chilled, after the initial victory, began to retreat. First Qingzhou fell, then Yongzhou, and then Prion State was in danger.

Pengzhou Gongwei Jingjing, if Prion Prefecture is lost, the insurgents can go straight to Yaojing. The prince then panicked, and the alarmed Anqing Emperor propped up his illness and called the courtiers to discuss the matter.

Shu Guifei's party, who had been silent for a long time, took advantage of the opportunity to impeach the crown prince and the prince's party wantonly. There are also officials who are accustomed to playing and muddy officials who each hit 50 big boards and talk about it foggy for a long time, but there is no solution.

Anqing Emperor coughed angrily and pointed to Shentu Polo and asked, "what do you think of Shen Tu Aiqing?"

Shen Tu Kui opposed the crackdown early on, but it was the prince who was bent on going his own way that led to great disaster. Now when I see the court, I don't think about how to solve the civil unrest. On the contrary, I am still fighting for power and profit, and my mood is even more complicated.

When Emperor Anqing asked him about him, he was silent for a moment and followed his heart and said, "you might as well send the King of Northern War to quell the chaos."

As soon as the words came out, there was a silence above the court, but at this time no one dared to object. The momentum of the chaos in the south is fierce, if at this time come forward to oppose, delay the fighter so that the chaos broke through Prion state to Yaojing, then the nine ethnic groups are not enough to kill.

Anqing Emperor stared at Shen Tu Kui for a long time, and finally said wearily, "pass on my will and order the King of Northern War to lead troops to Yongzhou immediately to calm the chaos!"

The author has something to say: a lot of people cue me today.
