Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 415: Take a step to speak

The sound of rain outside the house is quiet, but the light is not very bright and it looks very dull.

Looking at Zhao Qian from his point of view, half of Li Wei's face was trapped in the shadows, and it was not very clear.

Regarding Li Shi, Li Wei made his attitude very clear early on, and hoped that through this move, he would restrain the Li family still serving as an official, so that the Li family would not become a target of public criticism. At least they won't suffer greater persecution.

"I heard people say that your auntie offended you?"

Li Wei raised his eyes and glanced at Zhao Qian, and said in doubt, "You know everything about me, have you arranged for you by my side long ago?"

Zhao Qian smiled and said: "Don't worry, I just want to know how good you are."

This explanation made Li Wei not know what to say. Li Wei and Zhao Qian talked about the princesses studying: "I just came from Wenhua Hall. The nine princesses are the youngest, but they are still working hard and learning something. Cheng. Lord, I have an idea..."

Without saying what she said, Zhao Qian had already guessed it, and said with a smile: "Is the Queen Mother going to implement a women's school across the country next, so that all school-age girls all over the country will follow the reading and writing?"

"I have this idea, but I always feel that the conditions are still immature. After all, the limitations of this era are too great. Women are dependent on men. There are not many parents who are willing to send their daughters to school. What will happen next, or will you continue to marry? It will not realize its value at all. For those parents, it is a waste of money and energy, it is more practical to let their daughters help at home, so there is one more solution. What do they do after they finish their studies, whether there are suitable positions for them, whether they can provide corresponding vocational education, and what guarantees are there."

She stayed there for more than ten years, received more than ten years of education, and worked for a few years. As expected, she was totally from that era. Unlike him, neither side merges much.

"You have considered these things thoroughly. It is a long-term process to truly change this era and changing people's minds. It is also destined to be very difficult. We will come one step at a time. Anyway, there is still a lot of time."

"There are many things I want to do. In addition to improving the status of women, there is also the construction of basic medical care, private protection and self-help measures, etc., which require more manpower and material resources. In fact, these external constructions may not be so difficult. It can be built in more than ten to twenty years, but the most important thing is people's ideas. It is very difficult for the public to accept such ideas."

Zhao Qian understood Li Wei’s concerns, and slowly said: "If you want to develop these, more than ten or twenty years, or even thirty to fifty years, will not be enough. Then I have to teach the emperor some awareness of this. In the future, we will no longer be in place, so some people will implement our consciousness and some will relay."

Speaking of ups and downs, Li Wei couldn’t help but have more worries and worries: “I heard people say that he has been learning to draw the bow. Martial arts training is a time-consuming process. Don’t be greedy for meritorious work. I'm afraid I can't stand it."

"Don't worry, I am his uncle and I will never hurt him."

Li Wei always felt that Fu Guang was still small and the burden on his body was too heavy, so he suggested to Zhao Qian: "He has to listen to the court meeting in the morning, and go to the study in the afternoon. The martial arts practice is arranged every three days. How accurate he can shoot arrows is to hone his temperament, knowing that he can endure hardships and stand hard work."

"I understand what you mean. I actually did this to enable him to have a certain degree of self-protection while strengthening his body. Having this ability is not a bad thing."

Now the minds of the two are the same, both want to cultivate Fuguang, and gradually get rid of the shortcomings of this society, so that they can develop in a better direction.

After the storm, the clouds gradually collected and the rain scattered, and the dark clouds covering the sun gradually dispersed, bringing light to the earth again. Zhao Qian didn't want to stay here more, so he wanted to say goodbye to Li Wei.

Li Wei got up and promised: "Master Wang slow down."

Zhao Qian walked all the way to the door, then turned around and stared at Li Wei for a few moments, and saluted Li Wei again. Li Wei stood still and watched him.

After the heavy rain, the bluestone pavement seemed to have been washed away, and the small gutter under the eaves was also filled with water, with a few fallen leaves floating on it.

Zhao Qian strode out of the palace gate, and when he was about to get on the sedan chair out of Chongqing Palace, a person suddenly jumped out of the corner. Zhao Qian was taken aback. He stood still after seeing the person clearly. In the footsteps, a gentle smile asked: "It turned out to be the fifth girl, why are you hiding there?"

Li Xing was blushing, and she didn't care about being inappropriate. She hurriedly said to Zhao Qian: "The prince, the lady wants to say something to the prince, please take a step to speak."

Zhao Qian was slightly puzzled, but he still followed Li Xing to the root of the wall at the corner, and his entourages were all on standby.

When it finally came to be alone, Li Xing felt that his heart was beating so fast, so pounding and pounding, he was really afraid that the man in front of him would hear her peculiar heartbeat and leak his thoughts.

"Girl Fifth has anything to say, but it doesn't matter." Zhao Qian smiled, his tone still soft.

Li Xing pursed his lips lightly, and then said boldly: "I know that the Queen Mother has many concerns and inconveniences, so I can't say it straight. I am a younger sister and I must not be used to the suffering of my elder brother, so the eldest brother's There are more things, please do your best."

Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows. It turned out that it was because of this. He gently said, "Five girls, don't worry."

Li Xing didn’t dare to look directly into Zhao Qian’s eyes and said hurriedly: “I don’t know how big the thing the eldest brother committed, but what the final handling is. It’s just a word from the prince, so please be merciful. Sad, and I don’t want my elder brother to suffer. This is a small wish of mine, and I hope the prince can fulfill it.

After saying these words, Li Xing finally raised his eyes to look at Zhao Qian, Shui Lingling's big eyes were a bit shy, but also a bit eager and uneasy.

Zhao Qian saw Li Xing's eyes slightly startled, how similar these eyes are to her. Many years ago, when he was in and out of Shangshu Mansion, he came into contact with such a pair of eyes, but at that time her gaze was purer, without such shyness.

The eyes of the two met, and Li Xing's heart beat faster, and she quickly lowered her head again, then gave Zhao Qian a blessing, and said: "Lord Lao."

Zhao Qian nodded and smiled: "I know, don't worry."

After Zhao Qian's words, Li Xing smiled happily, her bright smile was as gorgeous as the delicate flowers blooming on the branches of February.
