The Ming Dynasty started with caution

When Yan Chengjin was at the School of Science in Liangxiang, he saw that all the students coming and going were men.

But there is no woman.

It is no different from the mechanical colleges of later generations.

The ancients believed that a woman's lack of talent was a virtue, so there were no schools for women.

If a daughter from a wealthy family keeps books in her boudoir, she will be accused of not upholding female virtues.

It is rare for a lady like Li Qing'e to get the opportunity to become literate.

"I think the School of Science is a bit deserted."

Wang Yue was a little confused. There were people everywhere, so it was deserted.

Thinking that Yan Chengjin blamed him for his poor management, he said angrily: "There are hundreds of students passing by my eyes, but my nephew can't see them?"

Engineers in Liangxiang can receive salary, and in the future, they may have the opportunity to receive a high-level license award.

The number of students is like a snowball, increasing year by year.

There are a few common people and refugees who have traveled thousands of miles to send their children.

Yan Chengjin shook his head: "Starting tomorrow, Liangxiang College of Science will accept women as students, starting with the medical department."

When Queen Zhang left the palace to see a doctor, he felt very inconvenienced.

After all, it is inconvenient for male doctors to treat women.

In the market, there are no female doctors who prescribe medicines, diagnosis and treatment, and all are male doctors. This old practice has caused many women to get sick, but their families do not allow them to see a doctor, and they die of depression.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were many medical women with excellent medical skills, but due to feudal ethics, they could not show up in public and treat people.

Wang Yue opened his mouth and his tongue wriggled, but he was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

Zhang Xian had always supported Yan Chengjin, but this time, he felt like his head had been hit hard and it hurt.

Don’t Master Yan read the books of sages?

The husband is the guide for the wife, the three cardinal guides and the five constant principles.

These are the principles taught by saints.

Before a woman gets married, she is not allowed to go out to see guests. How many people does Huimin Pharmacy treat every day? If a woman goes to a pharmacy to become a doctor...

"My dear nephew, you can't do this. If you do this, you will be reviled by everyone in the world!"

Wang Yue was furious. I have worked hard for two years and spent 70,000 taels of silver. I can't let you corrupt me.

Zhang Xian bowed slightly and urged: "Sir, you can't do it."

Wang Yue and Zhang Xian were ancient people who had read the books of sages since childhood and could not bear such changes.

Yan Chengjin was no problem, for example, the materials and civil engineering of later generations were all in the monks' courtyard, which was extremely unfavorable for discussion and exchange.

Moreover, men can be officials or work as engineers in good villages, but women cannot.

If this continues, Ming Dynasty will become more patriarchal.

There are already few women, but the gentry still occupies seven or eight people, or even dozens of them.

In the end, the people of Ming Dynasty simply withered away.

"I like the excitement, so please post an announcement. Boss Wang's family will publish a newspaper in the capital, and pass it on to the Medical Department of the School of Science, recruiting female students, who can also be engineers."

Although the academy and Wang Yue are being scolded now, future generations will definitely praise Wang Yue and regard him as the most amazing person of all time.

Even higher than his achievements in writing books!

However, I can't explain it to him now, and I can't explain it clearly.

Wang Busui gritted his teeth, Yan Chengjin was his biological father to him.

In front of Chuanshi College of Science.

Men Zao looked at the gong and pasted a piece of red paper on the wall.

The students coming and going rarely paid attention.

But when a student from the first college walked by and accidentally saw the red notice, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah! Come and see, the college is accepting women as college students!"

"It has never happened in the past, it has never happened in the past!"

A shout caused thousands of waves.

The sound of drums outside the courtyard is noisy, and the small courtyard next to the Liangxiang Yamen is extremely peaceful.

Yan Chengjin took a sip of tea.

At this time, a big horse stopped in front of the courtyard gate, and the factory guard dismounted and lightly knocked on the door.

"Master Yan, your Majesty has summoned you!"

Before coming to Liangxiang, he had asked for leave from His Majesty. Yan Chengjin was a little surprised. His Majesty specially sent someone to summon him urgently?

He did not move, but let the factory guard come in.

"Why did your Majesty summon me?"

"The Queen has returned to the palace. Your Majesty is furious when you send the news that the Queen has left the palace to seek medical treatment."

Yan Chengjin speculated carefully for a long time and got on the sedan chair.

An hour later, I walked through the Meridian Gate and arrived in front of the Jinshen Hall.

Li Dongyang, Zeng Jian and others were all in the palace and turned to look at him with meaningful eyes.

Emperor Hongzhi was sitting in front of the imperial court. There was a pear blossom wooden plaque on the imperial desk, but there was no inscription.

"I don't know yet that your Majesty has returned to the palace."

"Hmph, do you know your guilt?"

"I know the crime!"

Zhu Houzhao learned from his experience after being beaten thousands of times. As long as he admits it quickly, His Majesty will not have time to get angry.

Yan Chengjin asked himself that he had done nothing wrong, but accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. His Majesty's decision to kill him did not depend on whether he was justified or not, but whether he was angry or not.

Emperor Hongzhi was indeed very helpful and his expression softened a lot: "I heard that you raised Wang Ji's medical fee to twenty taels and made a fuss about the Queen's visit to Huimin Pharmacy."

Xiao Jing said in a strange tone: "Not only that, Your Majesty, Lord Yan has just done another big thing."

Yan Chengjin took a deep look at Xiao Jing, but Xiao Jing avoided it.

Emperor Hongzhi became serious, and Li Dongyang and others were also interested.

"What's the big deal?"

"Admit women to colleges in good places and study medicine together with men."

Emperor Hongzhi's pupils suddenly shrank, and Li Dongyang and others all showed varying degrees of shock.

What was unanimous, though, was that they were stunned.

Yan Chengjin felt a little uncomfortable being looked at. It would be great if Zhu Houzhao was here, as it could automatically divert his anger.

"I am also here for the great Ming Dynasty."

"Don't tell me nonsense. When did I promise you such ridiculous things?"

Women should be virtuous. How can they study medicine in the College of Science with men?

Just now, Emperor Hongzhi's anger was all about Yan Chengjin's increase in medical fees.

But now, all of it turned into shock.

Let a woman go out to study medicine, and go to Liangxiang College of Science with male scholars?

Emperor Hongzhi's chest rose and fell violently. It was too difficult for me.

If I go to the underworld, how dare I see the Emperor Gao who established the moral code?

How dare I see the saint who has been sleeping for a long time.

"Do you know what the three obediences and four virtues are? Recite them to me. No, you don't know. Li Qingjia, you say it, or I will tell you!

The three obediences are: obey your father before marriage, obey your husband after marriage, and obey your son after your husband dies!

There are also four virtues, women's virtues, women's words, women's appearance, and women's work. Women should be dignified when they go out and should not be frivolous..."

Emperor Hongzhi spitted and trembled with anger.

Your father is not in the capital, so I will teach you a lesson on your father's behalf.

Li Dongyang and others nodded, wishing to continue what Emperor Hongzhi said.

Yan Chengjin was sprayed with spit.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty's reaction was so intense.

East Palace,

"You said that Father was teaching Lao Gao a lesson?"

"Yes, he scolded him fiercely, just like he usually taught Your Highness, and he also taught Lord Yan in person what the Three Obediences and Four Virtues are."

Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed, jumped up from his chair, and danced with joy.

"I want to go and see."

Lao Gao, this guy, always acted like a decent person in front of my father, fooling my father. Now, he has finally been exposed by my father, right?

He rushed out of the East Palace, followed by a group of eunuchs.

Not long after, Zhu Houzhao came to Jinshen Hall and scratched a paper eye on the side door.

The gatekeeper of Jinshen Hall was scared, but he didn't dare to stop him.

Seeing Yan Chengjin kneeling in the hall and being scolded by Emperor Hongzhi, Zhu Houzhao was amused: "What did Lao Gao do wrong?"

The gatekeeper of Jinshen Hall wanted to say something but didn't dare to.

Under Zhu Houzhao's intimidation, the little gatekeeper stammered: "Lord Yan allows women to go to the Science College and study medicine with men."

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up: "What is this crime? I think it makes sense. Why can't women learn medicine? There are also female doctors in the palace who specialize in treating concubines."

The voice reached the hall,

Yan Chengjin couldn't help but smile, thinking of Zhu Houzhao in his heart, this guy really came.

Emperor Hongzhi looked cold and looked at Xiao Jing: "I seem to hear the prince's voice?"

"Your Majesty, he is outside."

When Xiao Jing scratched his eyes, he saw that in the whole palace, only the prince dared to peek at Your Majesty.

"Call him in, I will discipline him today."
