Chapter 514: False and submissive
In the hall, a little girl with flower bud hair pushed away the bowls and chopsticks in front of her and cursed angrily.
Sitting next to her, the little girl who looked a little like her said in a low voice: "Sister, the food here is like this, bear with it, it says that you can go home after five days of classes." Day, then we will go back to eat delicious food."
"It's not your turn to interrupt Miss Ben's speech. If you like food, then you can eat it all!" The woman grabbed the spoon in the bowl and took a big mouthful of rice and stuffed it into the little girl's mouth.
"Well!"
The little girl was almost poked in her throat with a spoon, and she whimpered in pain.
There was too much movement here, causing other people to look at them.
But the rambunctious girl didn't have the slightest intention to restrain herself. Seeing that her concubine sister had no power to resist, she became even more proud.
"This kind of food is for lowly people, eat more if you like it, lowly!"
The buzzing discussions in the hall stopped abruptly.
They all saw Su Ying standing at the door, but the two of them were sitting with their backs to the door, and they didn't notice anyone at the door at all.
Su Ying frowned, "Is it common for ordinary people to take concubines now?"
Shangshu Hubu went to court today, so he appointed his son to follow him to avoid any accidents.
Su Ying's words made his face change. He thought that since the aristocrats of the aristocratic family learned that Su Ying was going to set up a women's college, and that the matter of repairing and recruiting fell into the hands of the Minister of the Household Department, many people secretly found the Minister of the Household Department. , hoping to send his daughter to a women's school.
It's not that they can't afford to hire a husband, but they want to take the opportunity to show their daughters in front of Su Ying. If they can be appreciated by the empress, then their future will be nothing to worry about.
Hubu Shangshu was afraid of death, so he rejected many people, but some people really couldn't refuse, so he had to bite the bullet and accept, hoping that Su Ying would not care about the background of these students, otherwise he would play!
But now there is such a commotion, the son of Hubu Shangshu is sweating profusely, and his calves are limp, "Ma'am, this, this may be some misunderstanding, I'll go and ask about it."
"After you ask clearly, then bring all the students' information to me."
"Yes Yes."
The materials were quickly sent to Su Ying. When these students signed up, they had to record Ding Ji, and Su Ying was under pressure, so no one dared to falsify when making records. After all, it would be a big deal if they were exposed. .
Su Ying's complexion was very heavy, and the hearts of the people in Hubu Shangshu's Mansion were also very heavy, as if a big stone was pressing on their chests, making them unable to breathe.
"Your Majesty, this matter is indeed, indeed, our negligence. Please give me a chance to send out the non-compliant students, and then recruit some students."
With a snap, Su Ying closed the booklet, and looked at them coldly with her phoenix eyes.
"According to me and my wife?"
"I dare not." Everyone in the room was so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
"One-third of the people on the booklet are descendants of aristocratic families. It's not that they can't study, but that they shouldn't occupy the places of children who have nothing when they have everything."
Su Ying said at the beginning that this academy is for the children of poor people, so that these girls can improve their living conditions after learning something.
Although there are injustices in the aristocratic family's house, it is nothing compared to those children who can't even eat enough.
"Your father agreed to let these people in because he was afraid of offending them, so isn't he afraid of offending Bengong?" Su Ying's voice was not high, but the people in Shangshufu were terrified.
"Queen empress, please calm down, my little one, I will send everyone away immediately, and please forgive me this time. These people were recruited because of my lack of thoughtfulness, and my father didn't know about it."
Su Ying glanced at the people on the ground indifferently, she was a quick reflex, and knew to take the blame on herself, so as not to let the Minister of the Household be unlucky.
Su Ying is a little angry, but not really angry. Who among these aristocratic families can avoid so many favors, but this is indeed a good excuse for the Shangshufu.
"I've remembered this account book, so hurry up and get it done."
"Yes, yes, let's go, little one."
"These people who act one way in person and another in another's way are really too much. If it weren't for the dispute between the two sisters, the empress would still be kept in the valley." Bai Shuang is a commoner, so she can understand the suffering of common people better.
The women's academy run by the empress may be a channel that can change the lives of those children, but it is really abhorrent to be deprived of it.
"Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to leave the enrollment matter to your daughter." Zhou Xiangrong stepped forward and said.
"you?"
"Yes, I know that there is a slum area in central Beijing. The current situation in the slum area should be changed most. Many newly born girls there are either sold or killed. Being able to become a stepping stone for the boys in the family, this academy is very important to them, I implore the empress to give the ministers a chance and let the ministers take those children out of the quagmire." Zhou Xiangrong looked at Su Ying with incomparable determination, Invisibly give people a kind of convincing power.
Su Ying's eyebrows were slightly drawn together. She promised to run a women's school at the time and wanted such students. This Zhou Xiangrong, in some aspects, has the same cognition as her.
"Okay, I will give you this chance to let you go, I hope you will not disappoint me."
Seeing that Su Ying agreed, Zhou Xiangrong's muscles relaxed.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister knows that the Empress is also thinking of the common people, and the minister will definitely not let the Empress down."
"Well, as soon as possible."
"yes."
A total of nearly a hundred people from major families were liquidated over there.
When Su Ying went out, those girls waited angrily for the girl who caused trouble in the hall.
At this time, the girl also realized the seriousness of the matter. Before she left the house, her parents had entrusted her to behave well so that the queen would notice her.
It's all right now, the queen has noticed her, but she will never want to show her face in front of the queen again.
Seeing Su Ying approaching, everyone knelt down consciously. They had all heard about the queen's temper, and no one dared to pluck the tiger's mouth.
"I won't blame you for the decisions made by your parents, so pack up and go back."
Seeing that Su Ying didn't punish them, these young ladies didn't dare to stay longer. They didn't come here voluntarily, and it's okay to go back now. Anyway, they are not the ones who can't explain to the family!
