Da Qin: The First Emperor wanted to train me to be the empress

"My subordinate Chen Ping pays homage to His Highness."

"My subordinate Lu Zhi pays homage to His Highness."

Half an hour later, Xu Man arrived at Qingfeng Pavilion, where Lu Zhi and Chen Ping were already waiting.

Seeing her coming, the two people hurriedly greeted her and greeted her respectfully.

"Exemption."

Xu Man strode into Qingfeng Pavilion and greeted: "Come in, let's sit down and chat."

"only."

Lu Zhi and Chen Ping's attitudes became more and more respectful, but they didn't feel at all timid.

Upon hearing the greeting, the two of them followed Xu Man into the Qingfeng Pavilion. They waited for Xu Man to sit down at the stone table in the pavilion, and then they sat down opposite Xu Man at the same time.

The maid came forward to pour tea and bring cakes. After she retreated, Xuman motioned for the two of them to drink tea first.

After drinking tea, Xu Man said, "How are you doing with the work at hand recently?"

"Did you run into any trouble?"

As she spoke, she looked at Lu Zhi: "Eshan, I heard that you looked for me yesterday?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Lu Zhi glanced at Chen Ping first, and then spoke after receiving a nod from the latter, "That's right, my subordinate recently visited local people..."

As she narrated, Xuman understood that the idea advocated by Lu Zhi that women could also read, write, and learn skills was going well around Xianyang.

But the further away from Xianyang in the countryside, the more this concept is questioned, and some villagers are even rude to Lu Zhi and his party.

If they hadn't worried that their men would not have the chance to go to school, the whole village would have driven them away with brooms.

The more people like this, the more stubborn Lu Zhi is in trying to change their minds, and even puts forward the condition that if his girl is not allowed to go back to normal, your boy will not be allowed to study.

This angered villagers everywhere. They directly called Lu Zhi and his party liars. How can there be any school in the world that requires women to enroll?
It's hard to tell where these swindlers came from, just to trick their own girls into doing bad things.

Lu Zhi laughed angrily at them. He wanted to reason with them but they used force with Lu Zhi and others.She had no choice but to come back and seek help from His Highness.

When Xu Man heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly and murmured: "That shouldn't be the case. At this time, women's status was not so low that they had no chance to study."

She remembered that all schools of thought had female disciples (except Confucianism).

Could it be...

Thinking of this, she looked at Lu Zhi and asked, "Have you ever heard anything unusual about those village pavilions that have a bad attitude toward you?"

"It stands to reason that my father has not issued any laws restricting the development of women."

"They even encourage local governments to accept the valid opinions put forward by women. This situation should not occur."

"Indeed, given the current decrees issued by His Majesty on the protection of the status of women, this situation should not occur at all."

Chen Ping took Xu Man's words and said, "Your Highness, Ping thinks there is someone among them who is causing trouble?"

"Is he a former noble from the Six Kingdoms?"

"This is possible, but not absolute."

Xu Man half agreed with Chen Ping's words and looked at Lu Zhi, "When you encounter difficulties, do you secretly investigate the reasons?"

Lu Zhi nodded: "Your Highness, my subordinates have encountered this kind of thing several times in a row. Therefore, considering this problem, they asked the guards around to investigate the situation secretly."

"And guess what?"

Xu Man glared at her: "Talking about something."

"Yes."

Lu Zhi realized that his tantalizing tone should not be used here, so he quickly restrained himself and said, "It turns out that there are children in those village pavilions who have entered Confucian private schools."

"A lot of what they learned was about how women shouldn't be like this, shouldn't be like that, and should be like this or that. The more they heard it, the more scary they felt."

"From what the Confucian teacher taught, it seems that women even breathe wrong." (End of Chapter)
