The style of the Queen Mother in Qing Dynasty is different

Qiqige has been preparing for the princesses to study, but the progress is slow.

It's not that the emperor and the Ministry of Internal Affairs are not cooperating, it's because there is a disease in the world called procrastination.

Never do things until the last minute, never write homework until the eve of the start of school, never code until twelve o'clock in the middle of the night...

Except eating, drinking and having fun, everything can be procrastinated.

Qiqige's great cause of education has dragged on and on, until today.In three to five years, the princesses will be studying, and her textbooks haven't been compiled yet.

In this regard, Qiqige wanted to say: I'm sorry, as a human being, I was very procrastinating.

It was a coincidence that Niu Hulu wanted to have a baby, but she was not pregnant.She was also idle, and just bumped into Qiqige.Such a talented person who loves to think wildly when he has nothing to do, of course he will be arrested and used as a coolie!

Qiqige is an old fool, she just opened her mouth when the fool said, she first expressed her appreciation for Niu Hulu.

"Good boy, thank you for contributing to the education of the princesses. I know your character and talent, how can I describe it in the words of a literati? You are better than Zijian!"

Niu Hulu blushed and lowered her head, "Emperor Niang was joking again, it would be great if the concubine had as much talent as Cao Zijian."

Xie Lingyun once said: There is only one stone in the world, Cao Zijian monopolizes the eight buckets, I get one, and everyone in the world shares one bucket.

Needless to say, Cao Zijian's talent, Qi Qige uses Cao Zijian as a metaphor for daughter-in-law, which shows that she is very good at leapfrogging porcelain.

After praising her talent, Qiqige started to paint big cakes again... No, let's look forward to the future.

"You are so talented, but you can only write, read, and chat in the palace every day. It's a pity that you can't use your talent to do some practical things! I strongly advocate that princesses study, because I Understand the benefits of reading. Reading can make people understand things and see the world. If you write textbooks, you will be No. 1 teaching princesses to see the world.”

Niu Hulu could only feel a surge of enthusiasm rushing to her heart, "Thank you for empress empress' respect for my concubine, this concubine will definitely live up to empress' expectations!"

If Niu Hulu agreed to write the textbook just now to promote her talent, then after listening to Qiqige's words, she really felt that educating the princess was a meaningful thing.

Qiqige made the pancake a little bigger, "Children, I have a dream! I not only hope that princesses can read books, I hope that all girls in the world can read books! I even more hope that the whole world can read books." Everyone reads! Reading can open up the wisdom of the people and educate the people. I hope that all people can get rid of their ignorance!"

Niu Hulu clenched his fists excitedly, "It turns out that Queen Empress actually has such great ambitions."

Niu Hulu sighed in his heart, the Queen's mother must be in pain too!The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, which restricts her ideals. She cannot display her ambitions, and can only hide her true side under the appearance of laughing and cursing.

Qiqige didn't know that she was being sympathized, and she was still working hard to make cakes.

"I don't study much, but I think learning can't be done behind closed doors. When you are in the palace, your life remains the same, with familiar faces and repeated days. Your thoughts and ideas are restricted. How can you be in such a closed environment?" Have you learned enough?"

Niu Hulu nodded, "Emperor Niang is right! Without rich experience, you can't write good articles and poems. In the end, all your works are moaning without illness."

Qiqige clapped her hands and laughed: "So writing textbooks to teach princesses is also helpful for you to learn. Maybe in the future you can also write great poems like Li Bai and Du Fu!"

Niu Hulu covered her hot cheeks, "Huang Er Niang, stop boasting, I'm even embarrassed by your boasting."

Qiqige said seriously: "Hey! You have to be confident! You are so smart, no worse than Li Bai and Du Fu, and you will definitely be able to write masterpieces handed down from generation to generation! Only confident people can make greater achievements!"

Qiqige: How are you different from Li and Du in Tang Dynasty?If someone can get [-] points in the test, you can too.

Niu Hulu lowered her head and smiled, she dared to compare with Li Du, this is not self-confidence, it is inflation!

After praising Niu Hulu's family so much that he couldn't find the southeast and northwest, Qiqige started to ask again.

"If you want to do something, you must do it immediately, and you must not delay." When Qiqige said this, she spoke righteously and did not feel guilty at all. "Let's discuss how to write this textbook now. I have a few requests. You listen."

Niu Hulu quickly sat up straight, "Mother Huang, please tell me."

Regarding the requirements for teaching materials, Qiqige began to think about it very early.

"The most important point is that the teaching materials must be divided into age groups!"

Niu Hulu didn't quite understand, "By age?"

Qiqige nodded, "Children have different abilities to accept knowledge at different ages. It's like reading the "Three Character Classics" when they were enlightened. , can probably understand the meaning of the book. The teaching materials for young children must be simple and naive, and as they grow older, the content of the book will gradually deepen."

Niu Hulu said: "Emperor Niang, the "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Classic" are already very simple, so there is no need to make teaching materials anymore?"

Qiqigeti's request was very inconsistent with Niu Hulu's imagination.

Niu Hulu thought that Qiqige's so-called compilation of textbooks was to let him make a summary of various books, select a few good books for annotations, and use them as regular textbooks for the princesses.

This is not Niu Hulu's laziness, whether it is a private school or a study in the palace, everyone reads the same.First, various enlightenment books, and then the Four Books and Five Classics.The empress dowager loves the princess very much, so she should read the Four Books and Five Classics first, and then add books such as "Female Precepts" and "Female Virtue".

Enlightenment starts from the "San Zi Jing", which is a common practice!

Qi Qige said: "The "Three Character Classic" is very good, but it is still not easy enough. I need to make it more simple. It is best for children to understand it by themselves. Books for young children must have illustrations on them, so that It looks simple and clear, and the kids are happy to watch it."

Qiqige waved at Linnet, "Go inside, open the drawer of the dressing table against the wall, and take out that little book."

Linque took out the notebook, Qiqige opened it and read according to it. These are all the requirements for the textbook that she recorded in advance.

"Easy to understand is the first requirement. The second requirement is that the textbooks should be divided into subjects. Not only Confucian classics, but also nine chapters on arithmetic and Western knowledge. You don't know much about Western knowledge, so you can leave this part alone. I can Let Western missionaries write it. The third requirement is also the most difficult one, the textbooks you write must be full of spirit!"

Niu Hulu's: It's outrageous. How does the book reflect the spirit?If it is poems and songs, it will be fine, and the emotions will flow on paper.But how do textbooks show emotion?

Qiqige explained: "The second princess is also a princess. She also read books before she got married, but what did she understand? She was full of grievances and humbleness! I let the princesses study because I want them to be independent and strong. In your textbooks, you can’t say that a woman is attached to a man, and the husband means more than the sky!"

Niu Hulu understood, "I understand what Huang Erniang means. Don't worry, I am the concubine of the princesses, and I will never harm them."

Qiqige smiled and nodded, "It would be great if you understand what I mean!"

She put down her little book, stepped forward to hold Niu Hulu's hand, and said emotionally: "My child, the fate of the princesses is in your hands. We must make the princesses happy!"

Niu Hulu thought to herself that although Huang Erniang's requirements were a bit more, compiling textbooks was very meaningful. She was willing to work together with Huang Erniang who had great ambitions!

Qiqige lowered her head, looking weak, "It's just a pity, there is a war going on outside, and frugality is also advocated in the palace, so you may not be paid for compiling textbooks."

Niu Hulu is quite a literati, she doesn't care about gold and silver.

"Emperor Niang looks down on the concubines too much, and the concubines don't care about things outside of them."

Qiqige breathed a sigh of relief: Okay, you don't care about things outside of you, I care!I can save a fortune!
