If you believe it, just believe it. Why would you say it out loud?

When you say this, it sounds like you don't believe it...

However, Wei Jinyu, who was standing next to him, suddenly brightened up after hearing what he had just said: "Your Majesty, you won't kill me?"

Zhu Youxiao uttered eight words lightly.

"Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided!"

"As for the punishment, let's find the nanny you knocked out first!"

Afterwards, he asked someone to take Wei Jinyu out.

If he kept the girl here, he was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would really do something to verify the truth.

But then again...

"Queen, she used a strip of cloth to strangle herself flat before. Is it really not painful?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan came closer and whispered softly in Zhu Youxiao's ear.

"How about I try it myself tonight and show it to Your Majesty?"

A tingling sensation came from his earlobe and Zhu Youxiao shuddered suddenly.

Wachale............

The queen has changed recently and is quite different from when I first came here!

but.......

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wang Tiqian and several other eunuchs in the hall and said angrily.

"Queen, what nonsense are you talking about? I am not that kind of superficial person!"

"Humph!"

"I'm going to review the papers, Queen, please do as you please!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves, strode back to the imperial desk, sat down, and picked up the test paper to cover his face.

hiahiahiahia!

Looking forward to it...

However, he quickly suppressed his excitement, after all, he still had a lot of things to deal with.

It's understandable to change up your mood occasionally and relax.

But if you become addicted to it, that would be bad.

This is the basic principle of being an emperor.

Most of those who forget this principle end up badly.

Half an hour later, Sun Kangwang came back to report that the maid had been found. She was not seriously injured. She had just been tied up by Wei Jinyu for two days and was a little weak. She just needed to rest for a few days.

Zhu Youxiao thought about it, his eyes swept over the test papers, and an idea gradually took shape in his mind.

Afterwards, he asked Sun Kangwang to find Wen Tiren and Prince Xin.

"I want to set up another academy. What do you think?"

Wen Tiren bowed and asked, "May I ask your Majesty, what does this academy teach?"

Zhu Youxiao pointed to the test paper in front of him and said.

"The seven subjects added to this imperial examination are all taught subjects!"

"Unlike other academies, I will also recruit some women to enroll in this academy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Xin's eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate!"

"Since ancient times, women have invited teachers to their homes to study. How can women be allowed to show their faces in public?"

But Wen Tiren smiled and shook his head, stroking his beard and retorted.

"Prince Xin, what you said is wrong. If I remember correctly, the Hualin Academy during the Song Dynasty once admitted female students."

"It's just that there has never been such a precedent in our Ming Dynasty. It's not a groundbreaking event."

Prince Xin was stunned.

"But, but they can't take the imperial examinations, so why should they be allowed to study in the academy?"

"Isn't this a waste of national strength?"

Chapter 248: The sea embraces all rivers, and the greater it is, the more it can accommodate

In response to Prince Xin's confusion, Zhu Youxiao said with a playful look on his face.

"When did I say that the purpose of letting them study in the academy was to allow them to take the imperial examinations?"

After saying this, he looked at Wen Tiren.

"Does Mr. Wen still remember Wei Jinyu?"

Wen Tiren nodded and said, "This man is a candidate for the Guide Prefecture. I naturally remember him. I just don't know why Your Majesty mentioned him."

Zhang Yan's eyes lit up and she wanted to say something, but chose to watch.

Zhu Youxiao continued to ask Wen Tiren: "Do you know that she is not a man, but a woman?"

Wen Tiren was stunned.

"what!"

"A girl? How is that possible?"

"The search in the Imperial Examination Hall is so strict, how did she sneak in?"

Zhu Youxiao shook his head: "How she got in is not important now."

"The important thing is that her talent is enough for me to show mercy and forgive her crime of deceiving the emperor."

"The queen suggested that she enter the palace as a concubine, but she refused."

"I am not a person who uses force, but considering his talent, it would be a waste of talent if he were to be released back to his hometown."

"So, I plan to let her serve as a professor at the new academy and teach the girls for me."

"What does Elder Wen think of this move?"

The rules for selecting concubines in the Ming Dynasty were extremely strict. In addition to having a clean family background, they also had to have fair skin, good looks, and be proficient in chess, piano, calligraphy, and painting.

It is no exaggeration to say that the process was like overcoming many difficulties and defeating many enemies.

However, these beauties were all selected from the common people's families. Even if they received some training, it was only to learn some etiquette, sex life and the like after entering the palace.

It was unprecedented to study in an academy before entering the palace.

But Wen Tiren expressed his agreement immediately.

"Your Majesty, this method is feasible."

To him, it doesn’t matter what the emperor wants to do!

As long as you don't kick him out, everything will be OK.

Prince Xin didn't think so. Although he was only in his teens, he seemed more pedantic than Wen Tihen, an old man whose half body was buried in the ground.

"Your Majesty, starting a war just for the pleasure of one person is not what a wise ruler would do."

"Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to revoke your order!"

“New colleges can be built, but it is better to follow the conventions and focus on scholars.”

"Girls are not allowed to enroll in school!"

After hearing this, Zhang Yan completely understood.

The beautiful girls entered the academy.

Connect this incident with the previous female doctor, and add the example of myself now participating in politics.

No matter how dumb she was, she knew what Zhu Youxiao wanted to do.

So, as soon as Prince Xin finished speaking, she stood up pretending to be angry.

"Is your brother prejudiced against women?"

Zhu Youjian froze and quickly apologized: "Your Majesty, you misunderstood. How dare I have such thoughts?"

"I just feel..."

Zhang Yan scolded again: "Do you want to destroy the Zhu Ming Empire?"

"Or did you fail to ascend the throne in the first place, and now that your Majesty has no heir, you have some new ideas?"

This hat is so big that Zhu Youjian doesn’t dare to take it!

He shuddered and fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, this is a misunderstanding! This is truly a huge misunderstanding!"

"I have never thought of sitting in that position!"

"Brother Emperor!"

"You know, it was your will that made me ascend the throne. I had no choice but to accept the throne..."

Zhu Youxiao was laughing as he watched from the side, but he couldn't really laugh out loud.

He held back and glared at Zhang Yan.

"Queen, this is too much!"

"What kind of personality does Prince Xin have? Don't you and I know it?"

"He and I have been like brothers since childhood, so why should we differentiate between you and me?"

"As long as he asks, I can give him the throne at any time. Why does he need to think about all this?"

Prince Xin was completely confused!

Who is going too far?

Father, why did you leave so early?

Even if you want to leave, why don't you take your son with you...

Listen, is what my brother said human language?

He is flattering!

Naked flattery!

Zhu Youxiao didn't know what he was thinking. In fact, what he said was completely consistent with the character of Tianqi in the past.

But Zhu Youjian himself was suspicious, so there was nothing that could be done.

Seeing that something was wrong, the old man Wen Tiren simply chose to shut up, hung his hands, squinted his eyes and pretended to take a nap.

It’s better for me not to get involved in your Zhu family’s affairs.

So that you don't know what will happen one day...

Zhu Youjian knelt there, stunned for a long time.

Finally, he uttered a word through gritted teeth.

"Please have mercy, my brother!"

"I wish to resign my title of King Xin and demote myself to a commoner!"

If we can't afford to offend, we can at least hide from it, right?

Zhu Youxiao's face turned cold. He walked out from behind the imperial desk and pulled him up from the ground.

"What are you talking about!"

"You are my only brother!"

"Are you planning to make me bear the infamy of being intolerant?"
