Chapter 41 Finding a Way

Counting the days, this is already Xie Yan's 16th day in front of Kong Xuezhou's door.

During the sixteen days, no matter how violent the wind, the rain, or the scorching sun, they did not shake his determination to ask Confucius to come out of the mountain.

On the tenth day, even the boy who came to spread the message that "Master is not involved in political affairs" no longer appeared.

They had given up asking him to go back.

But Xie Yan didn't care.

He knew that this was the dream of the emperor's sister-in-law back then, and it was also something that he, as an uncle, could finally help Qingyun with.

So he was willing to hold on a little longer.

It was another rainy day, and Xie Yan arrived at Kong Xuezhou's door early.

Compared to the scorching sun, rainy days are less unpleasant.

It's just sticky and uncomfortable.

Xie Yan stood in the rain, prepared to be wet all day.

But suddenly an umbrella was held above his head, blocking him from the drizzle of rain.

Xie Yan's face was expressionless: "I said, there is no need to send an umbrella."

But the umbrella didn't leave his head.

Xie Yan followed the hand of the person holding the umbrella and realized that the person coming was not a member of the family.

It was a face he didn't recognize.

The man wore a hat, which was connected to his clothes and covered his forehead.

But he still couldn't stop the elegance of his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, as well as his gentle and generous temperament.

"Who are you?" Xie Yan asked.

"The person who delivers the umbrella to the prince." Tianseng said.

Xie Yan frowned: "Why?"

"Entrusted by others."

"who?"

The heavenly monk didn't answer.

He handed the umbrella forward. Xie Yan glanced at it but did not take it.

"Before your Majesty left the capital, he left an edict."

The Heavenly Monk spoke slowly: "If something unexpected happens to her, the throne will be passed on to King Chu."

"Absurd! How dare you say such rebellious words!" After hearing this, Xie Yan was not happy at all, only angry.

After calming down, I finally realized something was wrong: "Your Majesty has left the capital?"

"Where did she go?" Xie Yan asked.

The heavenly monk shook his head: "You can't say."………………………………………………………………

Although she knew that Xie Yan was also in Jiangnan, Xie Qingyun had no plans to leave.

She was also here to find Kong Xuezhou.

He is a descendant of a saint and a scholar with numerous works.

Although he did not hold an official position, he opened academies all over Daqi, and the books he compiled are treasures that are must-haves for scholars.

Therefore, Kong Xuezhou is also known as the teacher of scholars all over the world.

Kong Xuezhou never served as an official, but Xie Qingyun still had some interactions with him when she was young.

Because he admired his mother's literary talent very much, he went to the capital to meet the emperor in person.

It was also through this visit to Beijing that he, at the request of the emperor and empress, gave several lessons to himself and his brother, establishing a half-master-disciple relationship.

Xie Qingyun came to him this time just to see if he could help her.

However, judging from his uncle's actions and results, the teacher probably would not easily agree with his idea of ​​​​a woman taking the imperial examination.

Besides, Xie Yan was guarding her all day long, so it was not easy for Xie Qingyun to visit.

If she wanted to change the imperial examination, she needed to find another way.

So after careful consideration, Xie Qingyun found Xue Jingguang.

The latter was reading a book. When he saw Xie Qingyun coming, he put down the pen in his hand and said hello with a smile: "Miss Huang, are you feeling bored?"

Xie Qingyun shook her head and went straight to the point without being polite: "A few days ago, you said that if women can pass the imperial examination, you will definitely come back as the top scholar?"

Xue Jingguang was stunned: "Yes, why does Miss Huang also want to take part in the imperial examination?"

Xie Qingyun shook her head: "That's not it."

"Have you ever thought about what would happen if a woman could not take part in the imperial examination?"

Xue Jingguang shook his head resolutely: "No, the emperor always says what he says."

"Then have you ever thought that she might be tripped up by the minister?"

Xue Jingguang: "..."

She hadn't thought about this.

It is possible to focus on other emperors, but the current emperor...?
can you?

However, Xie Qingyun has already spoken: "Instead of relying on the emperor for everything, why can't we take the initiative to do something to help her?"

Xue Jingguang thought for a while and felt that Xie Qingyun's words made sense.

"But how can we help the Emperor?"

Xie Qingyun clenched her fists: "Of course we must find a way to let the world see our woman's existence first!"
