Chapter 294: Chapter 294. Xie Yun fell off the cliff and passed away
Lu Chen picked up a piece of fish meat for the Jinniang and said, “Since Xie Yun doesn’t like lively women, what does she think of Wen Jing’s character? Princess Fu an…” Xie Yun cupped his hands and said to Lu Chen, “Princess Fu an is very nice, but I have no intention of marrying a Chang ‘an woman.” Xie Yun knew clearly what Lu Chen was thinking. Now that the Jinniang had a second child, she naturally wouldn’t have any more thoughts. Moreover, he had given up long ago. However, this didn’t mean that his marriage would fall into Lu Chen’s trap. Yu Yan walked in front of Qiao Jinniang and bowed. “Your Majesty, there’s news from the palace gate that Miss Ruoyi wants to see you.” Qiao jinniang said, “I haven’t seen her for a long time. Let Her in.” The last time Qiao Jinniang saw Qiao Ruoyi was last year in Luoyang. Qiao ruoyi came in wearing a clean and neat green traditional dress. Her long hair was tied up with a jade hairpin. She came in and bowed to Lu Chen and Qiao Jinniang. “Crown prince, Sister.” Qiao jinniang asked, “Why are you here today? A few days ago, mother said that you wouldn’t come back even when she asked you to come to the family banquet. She wanted to go to the west mountain to visit you when my younger sister recovered.” Qiao ruoyi said, “It’s not that I didn’t want to go back during the family banquet. Now, there are many more students in the West Mountain Academy. When King Huai took over Chang ‘an, the army of the Chengen Bo Mansion came to the West Mountain to cause trouble. Mr. Liu had spent a lot of energy to deal with them. Later, with the help of General Yue Zhan, our West Mountain Academy was able to have peace. However, Mr. Liu didn’t have the energy to manage the academy, so he handed the position of the Academy’s Mountain Director to me. At this moment, the things in the academy were very complicated. The things that the students learned were messy and messy. These few days, I just followed the categories of the young ladies of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I followed the categories of the men’s studies, as well as the categories of studying arithmetic, there were also the categories of embroidery, making jewelry, and other female crafts, which were divided into the eight categories of heaven, earth, black, yellow, universe, and desolation. There were also five categories of age, which were divided into a, B, C, D, and E, and the female teachers had just been divided into categories. I’ve been a little busy these days.” Qiao Jinniang listened to Qiao Ruoyi’s eloquent speech. She did not expect that Qiao ruoyi would really take this matter to heart, even though it was just a moment of kindness. “West Mountain Academy doesn’t need tuition fees. Fortunately, Sister has given us a lot of silver. Now that our reputation has been built up, there are many women from noble families in Chang ‘an who are willing to come to west mountain to study.” Qiao Jinniang said, “Thank you for your hard work.” Qiao ruoyi smiled and said, “If sister really feels that I’ve worked hard, can you get the students of West Mountain Academy to come over and copy the Xie family’s ancient books and isolated copies? I heard that the Xie family has brought over a thousand years of heritage. “If it weren’t for sister’s help, it would definitely not be our West Mountain Academy’s turn…” Qiao jinniang said, “This is also something that should be done. Originally, West Mountain Academy was also an academy, and the Academy doesn’t differentiate between high and low. You can arrange for the students to come over and copy the records together with the Hanlin Academy.” Qiao ruoyi was overjoyed and said, “Thank you, Sister.” Qiao jinniang smiled and said, “There’s no need to thank me. It’s a good thing that you were able to wholeheartedly establish the girls’academy. Although Zhou Shihui entered Qingming Academy under false pretenses at that time, those top academies nowadays don’t recruit girls. Even the Imperial College said that it recruited female students, but in reality, there isn’t a single one. Now that there’s a girls’academy that can also study the six schools, it’s a good thing that it’s an immeasurable merit for women.” Qiao ruoyi heard this and said, “I don’t hope for immeasurable merit either. It’s just that after reading so many books, I always hope that there will be some use. I also hope that one day, a woman can truly be a ruler and a high official!” Xie Yun laughed and said, “The Qiao family’s daughters are getting more and more powerful. I heard that there are already two female generals, and now there is a female prime minister.” Qiao Ruoyi did not care about Xie Yun’s mockery. She also wanted to be a ruler for the government. Not only was she loyal to the country, but she was also working for the people. Her reason was laughable. A man being a ruler for the government could win the imperial decree for his mother. It would be good if she could win the imperial decree for his mother. However, if she couldn’t, she also wanted to benefit more people. She wanted her mother to look after her in heaven and feel gratified for her. Qiao Jinniang Protected Qiao ruoyi and said, “Don’t make fun of ruoyi. Why Can’t a woman be an imperial decree? The imperial examinations have said that women can participate. Who knows, in a few years, West Mountain Academy might be able to produce a top scholar.” Lu Chen said, “If West Mountain Academy really produces a female top scorer, then I will act according to my father’s wishes and get the imperial court to allocate funds to West Mountain Academy. There is no need for you to take out your own money.” During the Battle of West Liang, Lu Chen knew that Qiao Jinniang had already lost a lot of silver. He had mentioned to his father that Qiao Jinniang was using her own money to stabilize the situation in Yunzhou, but the empress of Huilin was extremely stingy and turned a deaf ear to it. She even said that the entire family did not care about the money. Qiao jinniang said, “Ruoyi, did you hear that? Whether or not the students of West Mountain Academy can live better depends on whether or not they have a female scholar.” Qiao ruoyi confidently issued a military order. “Sister, don’t worry. I will strive to have a female scholar in the imperial examinations the year after next.” Qiao Jinniang:”…”there was no need to be so quick. When Qiao Ruoyi left, she did not forget to take the two boxes of ancient books that Xie Yun had collected from the palace. She casually took a book from the carriage and looked at it. However, she found a portrait in an ancient book. In the portrait, there should be a young girl, holding a pastry in her hand and smiling with her eyes curved. Qiao ruoyi thought, this person might be Xie Yun when she was young? Xie Yun was so beautiful. She must have been so delicate when she was young. .. Xie Yun entered the palace to present the book. For a moment, many Chang ‘an scholars felt sorry for Xie Yun. Back then, she almost died trying to save the crown prince. Now that she was willing to give the Xie family’s collection of books to the imperial court and the world, it showed her righteousness. Such a woman should be the crown prince’s consort. However, she was not the crown prince’s consort, and she had a deep friendship with the crown prince. For a moment, there was a discussion in Chang ‘an about making Xie Yun the crown prince’s side consort. When Qiao Jinniang heard this from Yu Yan in the palace, she frowned and said, “If no one spread this news, it’s impossible. As for who ordered someone to spread this news?” Lu Chen peeled a grape and handed it to Qiao Jinniang. “I spread it.” Qiao Jinniang looked at Lu Chen in surprise. “Why did you spread this news? Do you really want to marry Xie Yun? Do you really have the heart of a man?” Lu Chen tapped Qiao Jinniang’s forehead and said, “Don’t think too much. In a few days, you’ll know why I spread this news.” Qiao Jinniang ate the grapes he handed over and replied, “OH.” A few days later, Qiao Jinniang heard the news that Xie Yun had fallen from the top of the West Mountain of Chang ‘an when he was playing.. This death was a great pity for all the scholars in the world. Hearing this news, Qiao Jinniang was stunned at first, but then she thought about it carefully. Since Xie Yun no longer had any opponents, she should naturally return to her male identity. Xie Yun’s identity as a woman had to disappear..
