Mrs. Qin Xiangguo

101

After one month, the city of Xianyang.

The carriage stopped at the square outside Xianyang Academy. Before Zhao Weizhen lifted the curtain, he heard Wei Xing say: "Ma'am, please check the situation quickly."

Zhao Weizhen: "What?"

She opened the curtain and got out of the car, and saw many people surrounded by three floors in the middle and three floors outside the huge square.

Surrounded by the crowd, I couldn't see what was going on, but I heard a man's voice——

"Today I must give you an explanation from Mr. Xia Yang! My son has been smart since he was a child. Which scholar or gentleman in Xianyang has met him and won't praise him as a child prodigy? It turned out to be a good thing. He took part in the entrance examination for the official school, and he was ranked behind several girls. Among them, there must be Strange!"

Zhao Weizhen: "..."

The man's words fell to the ground, and I heard the response from Miss Ziying in the crowd: "The results of the entrance examination were all posted on the bulletin board yesterday. If you have any questions, sir, you can go to the bulletin board and ask someone special." .”

But the other party was relentless: "To ask, that is, to ask for a specific result. Since the so-called 'examination paper' was judged by Lord Xia Yang, it is time for Lord Xia Yang to give me an explanation!"

Zhao Weizhen: "..."

Wei Xing couldn't bear to look directly at him and jumped out of the car: "Madam, why don't I drive people away?"

Zhao Weizhen: "No need."

Qin Wangzheng approved her to open the Xianyang official school, although it was only an elementary school, but one had the reputation of "official school", and the other was that Zhao Weizhen did not set restrictions on the number of students, as long as the schoolchildren were three to five years old, seven to nine years old, regardless of male or female origin Participate in the admissions examination, so there are many parents who come to sign up.

It's just that the heart is dissatisfied and yelled out, and those who feel dissatisfied but not yelled out are too many.

It's not a good idea to drive people away.

So Zhao Weizhen tied his hair up in a bun, and stepped forward generously: "Which gentleman wants to explain to me? Here I am."

Her voice was not loud, but it made everyone around her stunned.

In Xianyang, everyone knows Mrs. Meng Kui, Mrs. Xia Yangjun.

Seeing her appearance, the surrounding scholars and Qianshou gave way one after another.

Zhao Weizhen walked to the front and saw a middle-aged scholar in Central Plains costume standing in front of Ziying.

Just now Ziying called him Mr.... I'm afraid he is a man of some reputation.However, the tourists who came to Xianyang were more or less famous, and Zhao Weizhen couldn't remember it for a while.

She raised a smile and shouted after Miss Ziying: I heard what Mr. just said.Since you have doubts about the judgment of the test papers, why not follow me to the school, and I will seal up the admission test papers. "

"no!"

The middle-aged scholar insisted: "Since Mr. Xia Yang sealed up the test paper, just take it out and show it!"

Zhao Weizhen frowned: "It's not suitable."

Middle-aged scholar: "Since there is no problem, what is inappropriate?"

Zhao Weizhen took a deep breath.

Because that is your son's test paper!

May I ask which student is willing to disclose his test papers to everyone? !Not to mention that the inner three circles and the outer three circles of the square are full of strangers watching the excitement, even if it is a parent meeting, Zhao Weizhen is not willing to take out a certain student's test paper and say that he is not as good as others.

May I ask which student who has experienced exam-oriented education has not had such a nightmare?

Seeing him being so aggressive, Zhao Weizhen couldn't help feeling angry: This father doesn't take his child seriously!

It is said that it is complaining for the children, but the purpose is to accuse Zhao Weizhen himself.

"Meng Kai has a clear conscience, and it doesn't matter if the test papers are made public."

Zhao Weizhen became angry, and his face also pulled down: "It's just a problem that can be solved in private. Meng Wei doesn't think it's necessary to show it to others."

"It's okay."

The middle-aged scholar said: "I came here today just to ask for an explanation."

Zhao Weizhen: "Okay."

With a cold face, she turned her head to look at the female official Ziying: "Please, sir, write down the names of the candidates. Miss Ziying, please go to the school and take out the test papers of the candidates and the people before and after the candidates."

Miss Ziying was also not very happy, but she still nodded seriously: "Yes."

After she left, Zhao Weizhen looked at the scholar in front of him again.

She hates this kind of parents who use their children as a cover, but are actually trying to save face for themselves!

What's more, he kept saying that he was a son, but he was unwilling to settle it in private. The intention of the person in front of him couldn't be more obvious.

In this era of contention among a hundred schools of thought, if you want to stand out, you must either have a talent for managing the world, or you must be a blockbuster.Since you can't be full of economics, then take a slant of the sword - the dignified Xia Yangjun, who has a reputation and status in Xianyang, today publicly accused her of fraud in the recruitment exam, and confronted her, no matter whether she won or not, it would be the same if she said the other party's name in the future. Put it together with Xia Yangjun.

Zhao Weizhen didn't care about using her power to make a name for herself.

But she couldn't bear to step on her own child!

"Xianyang Academy recruits two age groups." Zhao Weizhen calmly explained to everyone: "One is three to five-year-old schoolchildren who have not yet started their education. My two daughters, Bo Jiang and Zhong Jiang, are also among them; They are five to seven-year-old schoolchildren who have just started their education. The latter test items are divided into grammar, arithmetic and law. As early as the day the recruitment ended, I ordered someone to post the recruitment questions on the notice board in the square."

After she finished speaking, she paused and looked at the scholar in front of her.

"In the test papers that were taken out today, the correct score for each question is clearly marked. Before the test, there will be a special person to explain clearly to the students." Zhao Weizhen said: "Finally, the scores will be ranked from high to low in the test paper, and the top [-] will be accepted. name."

"I can disclose the test papers to you, for everyone present to read."

Zhao Weizhen said indifferently: "But sir, please think about it carefully. You talk about seeking justice for your son, but you want to show all his inferiority to strangers. No matter why you came, is it worth frustrating schoolchildren like this?"

"I am a mother with two daughters. Bo Jiang passed the exam this year, but Zhong Jiang is a little bit behind. If she wants to enter the school, she has to wait until next year to take the exam. This is the case with my children, let alone I don't know them at all. schoolchildren? Is cheating good for me?"

The middle-aged scholar gave a meal on his face.

He would never have thought that even Xia Yangjun's own children would have to take the exam like this!

The scholar retorted subconsciously: "I never said that Mr. Xia Yang is Wu—"

"lady."

In the middle of speaking, the female official Ziying brought over a stack of examination papers.

Back then when the school was run in the palace, the schoolchildren still used the letter slips, but now they have all been replaced by paper with the titles printed on them.

Zhao Weizhen ordered Wei Xing to bring in a long case and unfold several test papers one by one.

"Sir, you can come and see for yourself."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she picked up her clothes and sat upright: "Student 230 No. 95 has a grammar score of 45, arithmetic 65, and law [-]. Grammar is indeed high. He is only seven years old, but he is literate and clear. He is a famous student." Bright boy. But arithmetic and law are too low."

After speaking, Zhao Weizhen rolled out another set of test papers.

"This is the test paper for student No. 120. It happens to be a girl, and her ranking is one higher than that of student No. 230." Zhao Weizhen elaborated: "The grammar score of this student is indeed not high, but it is similar to that of arithmetic and law. It's average, and the total score is indeed higher."

Zhao Weizhen looked up at the scholar: "Sir, do you have any questions?"

Scholar: "..."

Having said that, the other party was speechless.

The onlookers began to chatter.

"Isn't that very clear?"

"Go and look at the questions, there are so many candidates, what if there are any omissions?"

"If you really think about your own descendants, it's not appropriate to talk about it publicly!"

A low-pitched discussion sounded from the surroundings, and the faces of the middle-aged scholars among them turned red and purple.

"To enter Xianyang government school, it is not enough to only know grammar. What do you need to learn arithmetic?" He said: "What is the use of learning? My children are not sent to study to be craftsmen and farmers, or even to be officials!"

In the end, the scholar had a little more confidence.

"Furthermore, so what if girls have high marks? What's the use of learning these things when a female officer?"

"The rules I set are also for the purpose of showing King Qin in advance." Zhao Weizhen calmly explained: "If the master disagrees, you don't have to send your son to the exam."

"Who doesn't know that you Xia Yangjun and Lu Buwei cover the sky with one hand in Xianyang!"

The scholar raised his voice: "Are you training girls to train a second woman to become an official in the court?"

The crowd shouted!

Everyone knows that Xia Yangjun was able to officially enter the court as an official because of the accumulation of merits, and it was only when Qin Wangzheng made an exception.Even so, there were many voices of opposition in the court at that time. It was Qin Wangzheng who tried his best to resist all opinions and gave way by saving the life of the Empress Dowager Huayang.

She is the only isolated case.

If Lord Xia Yang opened up the elementary school, it was to train more women to become officials in the court...

All of a sudden, the entire square started to discuss this sentence, making a lot of noise and voices.

Zhao Weizhen raised his eyebrows indifferently.

What should come will always come.

When she made the decision that the official school does not restrict men and women, she expected that someone would question it.I just didn't expect it to be so dramatic.

Moreover, it is still in this way to speak out in public.

This made Zhao Weizhen wonder, which political opponent made the trip.

"You said it was the king's purpose, so how much power does the current king have?!" The scholar scolded every word: "Mr. Xia Yang has ulterior motives, how much does the King of Qin know?!"

"—Then you might as well ask the widow directly."

The sudden sound shocked everyone around.

Not to mention the scholars and onlookers in front of him, even Zhao Weizhen was startled when he heard the familiar voice.

She got up immediately, raised her head, and saw a dark black dress appearing in her field of vision.

It turned out to be Qin Wangzheng himself, who came here with his guards!

The young monarch was born thin and tall, and his voice was a little hoarse when he spoke.But when he walked through the crowd with calm and steady steps, he still showed the unquestionable majesty of the king.

Ying Zheng turned his head to the side, but he did not see a pair of phoenix eyes as sharp as knives on his happy and angry face.

"Questioning how much power the widow has, you can ask the widow yourself." He said coldly.
