Mrs. Qin Xiangguo

047

Qin Wangji waved his hand: "Go on."

Meng Yi opened his mouth, like a fish in water, unable to make a sound.

This, this is King Qin!

Meng Yi, who had just entered the military camp for training, let alone seeing the King of Qin, even his elder brother Meng Tian could not easily meet the King himself.

So Meng Yi simply froze in place.

Seeing him opening and closing his mouth but not daring to make a sound, King Qin couldn't help laughing.

"Meng Wu has given birth to two real young gentlemen." I don't know whether these words are praising the Meng family brothers or teasing them.

But Qin Wangji didn't make things difficult for Meng Yi. Seeing that he was afraid to speak, he simply stopped asking questions and stood outside the school to listen like everyone else.

As Meng Yi said, the weather is good today, the yard is bright and airy, it is really suitable for reading.

In the school, not only is little Ying Zheng sitting in the first row, but there is also a small long table next to him, and a small bench is specially placed for Ying Chengyu, who is only two and a half years old, to sit next to his elder brother .

Zhao Weizhen glanced at the youngest pupil in the classroom.

Ying Chengxun is ignorant, but he is really well educated.Although the two-year-old Xiao Douding didn't understand what he was doing at all, he still sat obediently on the special small bench, neither crying nor fussing.

Then she secretly relieved herself.

"Today is the first day of class. The purpose is to familiarize yourself with the rules and arrangements, and to communicate with fellow students." Zhao Weizhen said: "Ms. Boyao will tell everyone about the class arrangement, and if you have any questions afterward, feel free to ask."

As for elementary school, according to age, Zhao Weizhen is still in the first grade of elementary school.

So she didn't schedule the courses too tightly, and still followed the habit of teaching Xiao Yingzheng in Handan.

There are two classes in the morning, one for literacy and reading, one for arithmetic and geometry, and there is time for games and activities between the two classes. In the afternoon, it is the basics of martial arts, which is taught by a royal concubine son Liang who Lu Buwei personally hired to help. .

After Boyao, a female official from the state of Chu patiently explained, a student immediately said, "Mrs. Meng Wei, I have a question."

Zhao Weizhen looked over and saw that it was a child pushed by a branch of Montessori, named Mengzhen, who was a bit older, nine years old this year.

"Just ask." Zhao Weizhen said.

"Mrs. Meng Wei is a woman." Meng Zhen asked, "Why can we run a school?"

Meng Tian and Meng Yi outside the school: "..."

The two brothers suddenly felt ashamed, and wished they could rush in and bring out their distant cousin.

But in the school, Zhao Weizhen just smiled indifferently.

"In the Qin State, everything from the family system to basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation are all written in the "Qin Law". What can be done and what can't be done, every word is clear." Zhao Weizhen said: "How dare you ask Xiaolang Jun, is there a rule in the "Qin Law" that says that women cannot run schools?"

Meng Zhen thought about it carefully for a long time, and it seemed that he had never heard of this law.

Zhao Weizhen: "It seems that there is no more. Since it is not against the law for a woman to open a school, why can't I do it?"

Meng Zhen tilted his head: "But, there has never been a school for girls."

Zhao Weizhen: "Xiao Lang-jun said about the history, but you are talking about the history that lasted for hundreds of years after Zhou Gongdan made the Zhou Rites?"

Meng Zhen: "Yes."

Zhao Weizhen: "Is there a rule in the Zhou ceremony that women are not allowed to run schools?"

Meng Zhen: "Uh..."

"Then it seems that there is no more." Zhao Weizhen's smile became brighter: "In this case, I will be the first woman to open a school, can't I?"

Meng Zhen was taken aback by what Zhao Weizhen said.

Think about it carefully, it seems that there is no problem?

Zhao Weizhen smiled and said, "What questions do you have, Mr. Xiaolang?"

Meng Zhen: "No, no more."

Zhao Weizhen: "If there is no problem, we will have the first class."

What is the first class about?

Speaking papers!

The female officer Boyao and the young master communicated, and immediately handed out the test papers of several students.

Xiao Yingzheng and Xiao Chengyu didn't take the exam, so they received two blank papers.

When it comes to exam-oriented education, Zhao Weizhen is not ambiguous at all.The primary school entrance examination is just a simple start. Since you have passed the test, how can you not talk about the paper?

The crowd secretly watching outside the school couldn't help but secretly nodded upon seeing this.

Since I have just passed the school exam and have a deep impression, if I point out a problem at this time, it will be more reliable to remember.

And this is just the first step!

In the first class, Zhao Weizhen controlled it to half an hour. After finishing a few exam questions, he took a short break, and then he continued to consolidate.

Silent writing!

She asked two assistants to put away the examination papers and sent out new bamboo slips.

There was a question in the entrance exam that was written silently for a few commonly used words. Zhao Weizhen held up an empty paper, and she read it and asked the schoolchildren to write it.

There are seven big characters in total, strike while the iron is hot and repeat it again.

Zhao Weizhen read it over and over again, and glanced at Xiao Yingzheng from the corner of his eye.

Ying Zheng was able to write letters to Qin Wangji when he was four years old. Such commonly used words were very easy for him.

only……

Xiao Yingzheng raised his eyes secretly, and quickly looked at Zhao Weizhen. Seeing that her eyes fell on the bamboo slips in his hand, he turned his head quietly.

Sitting on his left is Ying Chengyu, and the two-year-old Xiao Douding naturally does not need to participate in the silent writing.

And the one on the right is Wang Jian.

The eight-year-old Xiao Wang Jian was born with a tiger head and a tiger brain, with thick eyebrows and bright eyes. At first glance, he looked like a skinny child who couldn't sit still on weekdays.Right now, he seems to have forgotten how to write a word, scratching his head anxiously.

Wang Jian touched the bamboo slips and rubbed his hands over the long case, but he couldn't remember the characters that Zhao Weizhen taught just now.

When he was in a hurry, he couldn't help but glance to his left, that is, the direction of Ying Zheng.

With such a glance, the eyes of the two collided.

Anxious versus quiet, dazed versus confident.With just one glance, under the unprecedented situation in the long river of history, the tacit understanding between the future emperor and minister, the eternal emperor and the ever-victorious general spanned time and space, and made a behavior that elementary school students in the 21st century would do.

Ying Zheng silently moved his bamboo slips to Wang Jian's direction, and raised his elbow.

His bamboo slips were clearly presented in front of Wang Jian.

Xiao Wang Jian's eyes lit up, and his face was filled with tears of gratitude.Excited, he turned his head directly and stretched out his neck far, wanting to find out——

The next moment, Ying Zheng felt his shoulders sink.

A tall figure enveloped him, Xiao Yingzheng's heart jumped suddenly, he raised his head, and met the expressionless majestic face of his grandfather Qin Wangji.

Ying Zheng: "..."

Wang Jian: "..."

Qin Wangji patted Ying Zheng's shoulder and stretched out his hand: "Bring me the slips."

Ying Zheng, who was caught, still had no expression on his face, as if he was completely fearless.

——If it wasn't for his phoenix eyes flickering with crazy emotions that betrayed his true inner thoughts.

Standing on the stage, Zhao Weizhen really tried his best to keep the corners of his mouth from twitching.

It's really good, the overlord who will basically wipe out the six kingdoms in the future will learn to copy the answers at the same table without a teacher!

It was the first day of school, the first class, the first school exam, and the principal caught him!

Zhao Weizhen didn't know whether to say that the two had a tacit understanding, or that it was better to be angry.

She understood that when she was studying, the teacher said that the small movements in the audience could be seen clearly, and it was indeed not a lie.

When Xiao Yingzheng and Xiao Wangjian were winking, Zhao Weizhen saw it, and before she could stop her, Qin Wangji walked in silently with his hands behind his back, and shook his head at her.

This is what it means to grab the bag yourself.

Being caught by King Qin himself to copy the answer, Zhao Weizhen thought this might be the first highlight moment of Xiao Wang Jian's life...

Fortunately, the Great Demon King didn't intend to interrupt Zhao Weizhen's class.

He just confiscated the slips of Ying Zheng and Wang Jian, and then signaled Zhao Weizhen to continue the class.

Next, inside and outside the school, everyone, big and small, was shivering in silence, not even the small bugs passing by dared to make a sound to make trouble.

After the schoolwork in the morning was over, Zhao Weizhen let the other students go home to rest, leaving Xiao Yingzheng, Ying Chengxu and Wang Jian alone, and Qin Wangji entered the school again.

King Qin's servant followed into the door, saluted Zhao Weizhen politely, and brought a futon for King Qin Ji.

The majestic monarch wants to listen to Zhao Weizhen lecture the elementary school students!

Not to mention Ying Zheng and Wang Jian, even Zhao Weizhen felt the pressure.

This matter is too dramatic, she can't laugh or cry.

Looking back at the scene just now, it even has some comic effect.Zhao Weizhen felt both angry and funny.

She first looked at the dejected Wang Jian.

It is estimated that Xiao Wang Jian has never met King Qin, nor does he know him.But eight-year-old children are more or less afraid of adults, especially the big devil Yingji who has the majesty of a monarch, and little Wang Jian still realizes that he was caught cheating in the exam by a big man who can't be provoked.

"Let me ask you." Zhao Weizhen tried to soften his tone, and said to Wang Jian, "Why do you want to peek at Gong Zizheng's answer?"

"because……"

Hearing Zhao Weizhen's question knowingly, Wang Jian's head drooped even lower, wishing he could force his way into the crack of the school ground.

"Because I didn't remember the characters Mrs. Meng Kai taught me just now, and I was afraid that I would be ashamed if I couldn't write them down." Wang Jian said in a low voice.

"Why do you feel ashamed?" Zhao Weizhen asked again.

This stopped Wang Jian from asking.

The little boy hesitated for a long time, Zhao Weizhen waited patiently, and finally waited until Wang Jian organized his words.

"I, I'm afraid that everyone can write it down, but I, I can't write it alone." Wang Jian replied.

"Is that so."

Zhao Weizhen turned his head and thought for a while, then waved to the female officer Boyao.

She opened the collected silent writing one by one: "Look, this word is difficult to write. There are seven students in the school. Even if I taught it once, only Gongzi Ning and Gongzizheng remembered it."

Hearing this, Wang Jian raised his head suddenly.

He looked at the letter and found that what Zhao Weizhen said was right, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, Xiao Wang Jian looked even more guilty.

Zhao Weizhen closed the letter: "Let me ask you again, did you try to memorize when I was in class?"

Wang Jian's face was flushed red, and he tried to answer: "I have, I have!"

Although he doesn't like to attend lectures, Wang Jian remembered the instructions of the elders in his family, and he really restrained his little movements, and listened carefully to Mrs. Meng Wei's lectures!

"But," Wang Jian stumbled and said, "I really didn't remember."

"If you don't remember it, you can ask me again." Zhao Weizhen said as a matter of course: "If you ask a question, I will tell you it again. If you haven't remembered it, tell it again until you remember it. I worked hard, but I didn't do it." I see, it's not your fault, but it's your fault to peek at other people's answers and try to get something for nothing."

Wang Jian: "I, I know, ma'am, I will never do this next time, you, hit my palm!"

At the end of the speech, Xiao Wang Jian closed his eyes and turned his heart. He made up his mind as if he was going to the battlefield, and stretched out his hand.

Zhao Weizhen couldn't help laughing: "It's good to know what's wrong, why should I hit you?"

She does not agree with corporal punishment, nor will she do it.

The purpose of beating a child is to make him remember his mistakes and not repeat them next time.But now Xiao Wang Jian already knew he was wrong, so why bother?

So she found Wang Jian's examination paper.

"I won't hit you, but you have to prove that you know your mistakes." Zhao Weizhen handed the bamboo slips to Wang Jian: "After you go back, review the wrong questions well, and don't make mistakes in the next time, okay?"

Wang Jian took a deep breath: "I can do it, Mrs. Xie Mengkai!"

Zhao Weizhen: "Go home and have dinner."

After seeing off Wang Jian, she turned to look at Xiao Yingzheng who was on the side.

At the same time, Zhao Weizhen also caught a glimpse of the silent Qin Wangji, and also looked at Xiao Yingzheng.

After educating Wang Jian in advance, Ying Zheng has calmed down now.At least his pair of clear-cut phoenix eyes no longer showed panic.

Meeting Zhao Weizhen's gaze, Ying Zheng spoke up without her asking.

"Before class started today, they were throwing sandbags to play." Ying Zheng explained: "I don't know anyone. It was the young man of the Wang family who pulled me to his side to play with me, and we won."

Zhao Weizhen: "..."

She was startled when she heard the words, then looked at Boyao.

The latter nodded silently at her.

No wonder Xiao Yingzheng wants to copy the answer for Wang Jian.Zhao Weizhen was in a complicated mood.

One is that Yingzheng has just arrived, and he is somewhat unable to integrate into the small group of local children; the other is that the future monarchs and ministers hit it off so quickly when they met.

Strange to say, Ying Zheng's personality is introverted, even gloomy, but he seems to be especially popular with lively and outgoing people.

It was Yan Dan who took the initiative to make friends with him back then, and Wang Jian is the same today.

"Master Zheng thinks that as friends, we should help each other in times of difficulty, right?" Zhao Weizhen asked.

Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Strictly speaking, this is not a problem.

Not to mention anything else, who hasn't borrowed a friend to copy homework and answers!When Zhao Weizhen was in college, he also helped his roommates type up cheat sheets.

But if it's wrong, it's not wrong, and now she also understands the mood of her teacher.

"It's a good thing for Mr. Zheng to treat his friends with loyalty and generosity." Zhao Weizhen said, "You have good intentions."

Even if Zhao Weizhen said so, Ying Zheng did not relax.He still had a slightly tense face, knowing that what Zhao Weizhen said later was the key point.

Sure enough, Zhao Weizhen continued: "Young Master Zheng, do you still remember Young Master Yan and Guo Kai?"

Ying Zheng nodded.

Zhao Weizhen: "Before Guo Kai heard that I invited Gai Nie, a swordsman, to come to Handan, he wanted to use it to curry favor with Prince Yan. As you have seen, not only did he fail to please him, but it caused a catastrophe."

Ying Zheng pursed his lips imperceptibly.

Obviously he didn't want his name and Zhao Yan's name to be mentioned together.Xiao Yingzheng seemed to feel ashamed, and his pair of phoenix eyes unconsciously avoided Zhao Weizhen's gaze.

But he was silent for a long time, trying to understand what Zhao Weizhen meant.

"I see." Ying Zheng said in a low voice: "Even if you have good intentions, you can't support your friends to do bad things, otherwise you will be like Guo Kai and Zhao Yan."

"Yes."

Zhao Weizhen emphasized: "We can't be like them."

In fact, the reason is very simple. According to Xiao Yingzheng's IQ, he shouldn't be unable to figure this out.

But for cheating, Zhao Weizhen can also understand that he is lucky.

In addition, it is not easy to have a friend who hit it off. In an unfamiliar environment, it is understandable to want to get closer to the other party.

Of course, Zhao Weizhen also believes that Ying Zheng won't do it again after he realizes his mistake.

People can't live like Guo Kai and Zhao Yan - this is more vigilant than any punishment for Xiao Yingzheng.

"I'm sorry, ma'am." Ying Zheng bowed his head: "I won't do this again."

Zhao Weizhen slightly raised a smile: "But you should not only apologize to me."

Ying Zheng understood immediately.

The six-year-old boy turned his head to look at King Qin who was watching.

He hesitated for a while, but still made up his mind, and walked in front of Qin Wangji.

The old Qin King and the young Ying Zheng looked at each other, and then Ying Zheng said solemnly: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, my great-great-grandson is convicted."

"Oh?"

Qin Wangji, who had been watching for a while, responded slowly: "What's your crime?"

Ying Zheng: "As the son of Qin, but he took the lead in violating the rules and did something wrong, he should be punished."

When King Qin heard this, a look of satisfaction appeared on his solemn face.

"Things are indeed wrong." Qin Wangji said: "But the "Qin Law" does not stipulate that it is illegal to borrow a friend's answer for the school test."

The implication is: wrong is wrong, but not illegal.

This is what it means to forgive Xiao Yingzheng.

Unexpectedly, when King Qin said that, Ying Zheng's already tense face became even more serious.

The six-year-old boy, with baby fat still remaining on his face, looked a little cute with such a solemn posture.

But when he opened his mouth, he said shockingly: "If there are no regulations, then the "Qin Law" is not perfect."

King Qin was taken aback.

Ying Zheng went on to say, "It doesn't matter if you have a small exam, but what about the big exam? If it's a big exam related to the state of Qin...for example, what about the entrance exam?"

At the end of the Warring States period, the current society was still in the transition period from slavery to feudalism, so of course there were no official examinations.

But Zhao Weizhen was still dumbfounded by what Ying Zheng said.

He said this casually, and directly pointed out the problem that has spanned the history of our country for more than a thousand years since the emergence of the imperial examination system-examination fraud!

As for King Qin Yingji...

Old King Qin frowned, his snow-white brows slightly raised, and then his sharp eyes turned to Zhao Weizhen.

"This method of school examination." Qin Wang asked: "Can it be used in the entrance examination?"

Zhao Weizhen: "..."

You are worse than Xiao Yingzheng, Your Majesty!

Zhao Weizhen was neither smiling nor shocked.

No wonder the two hit it off, and their brain circuits are consistent to be at the forefront of the times.

It's just that Zhao Weizhen feels that the model of taking an examination to become an official is simply not feasible in the current society.

One of the backgrounds for the emergence of the imperial examination system was the contradiction between the noble families and the centralization of power. In the pre-Qin period, there was no obvious sharp conflict between the two.

The relations of production have not reached that point yet.

But Zhao Weizhen understood what Qin Wangji meant. He just thought that this might help Qin select more capable officials and make Qin a better place.

It's just that Zhao Weizhen thinks...

The king of Qin is probably not worried about officials now.

"My concubine thinks it's not suitable." So Zhao Weizhen thought it over, and asked back: "Dare to ask the king, if you open the examination for admission to the school, you can take the examination for the position of prime minister. Sir, what should I do?"

King Qin immediately understood.

He was faintly disappointed, but Qin Wangji also heard Zhao Weizhen's subtext.

I don't mention others, but Yangquan Jun. Is it because he has the ability to be a prime minister?

Of course not, because he is from Chu.

If Qianshou and Lord Yangquan take the exam, and Lord Yangquan has the support of the nobles of the Chu family behind him, the King of Qin has to consider it.

She was implying that Qin Ting's Chu lineage should be taken care of.

It is even implying that the reason why she said this is to stand on the side of King Qin, even if her husband and Mrs. Huayang get close, she will not waver.

This little woman.

King Qin didn't mind her saying that, but found it funny.

"Mrs. Meng Wei is not very old, but she has twists and turns in her stomach." King Qin teased: "Patience in managing, I'm afraid there will be a bright future."

Zhao Weizhen: "According to the king's auspicious words."

Qin Wang: "You have to give the widow a few more steps."

Zhao Weizhen was shocked all over, and raised his head in disbelief.

What steps?Naturally, it is a step to meet Zhao Weizhen's request.

In other words, King Qin agrees with Zhao Weizhen's hint, and he is even willing to fulfill Zhao Weizhen's wish.According to Ying Ji's character, I am afraid that the old king of Qin has already thought of a way.

He just waited for Zhao Weizhen to take the initiative to take a few steps forward!
