The female anchor turned into the dean of an ancient academy

The maid's answer was like a bolt from the blue, and Yu Tingting's mind was in chaos.

The Great Zhou Dynasty? Linkang Prefecture? Zhaoyin Academy? This completely contradicted the history Yu Tingting knew.

No, whether it matches or not, the result is the same! That is, traveling through time! This thought flashed through her mind, and she immediately felt inexplicably absurd.

But looking around at the strange environment, it seems that there is no other reasonable explanation except to accept it. Otherwise, how could I go back to the modern era?

Yu Tingting was sitting on the Arhat bed, adapting to the sudden change, oh no, it was the shock.

Her fingers gently brushed across the ancient clothing on her body, and she murmured softly: "This...is not a dream?"

The maid Xiaozhi stood respectfully by the side, and when she saw Yu Tingting's actions, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Excuse me, but who am I?" Yu Tingting's voice was a little confused but a little calmer.

The maid, Xiaozhi, hesitated for a moment, then softly replied, "My dear, you are of course the eldest daughter of Zhaoyin Academy, Cen Jiexiao. A few days ago, the eldest daughter had a quarrel with the Madam and rejected the marriage she had arranged for you. In a fit of rage, she rode away from home, but fell off her horse. Fortunately, the eldest brother and the students from the academy searched for you and eventually found the horse you had ridden. They then discovered the eldest daughter, injured and unconscious, nearby. She then lay unconscious for two whole days and nights."

"The academy… Miss Cen Jiexiao?" Yu Tingting muttered to herself. Could this be her future identity? Although she couldn't fully adapt to this identity, in this unfamiliar time and space, survival was the most important thing.

Suddenly, Yu Tingting had an idea: academy, eldest lady...

Yu Tingting thought about her past, when she had no family background or connections, and was bullied by classmates, looked down upon by teachers, treated coldly by colleagues, and deceived and exploited by her superiors. Now that she has become Miss Cen Jiexiao, does she still have to live a life of submission like Yu Tingting?

She stood up and said calmly to the maid, "Your name is Xiaozhi, right? Could you please tell me about the situation here? Oh, because I was hit on the head. You see, I am stupid to begin with. This may make me remember some things from the past unclearly."

Xiaozhi tilted his head and looked at Cen Jiexiao with a look of disdain, as if he was looking at a fool at the village entrance.

At this point, Sister Cen Xiao had no choice but to accept this new identity.

Through the introduction of her maid, Xiaozhi, she learned that her father, Cen Ke, had died unexpectedly on his way to Chongzhou a year earlier, and the cause of his death remains unknown. Zhaoyin Academy is now managed by her mother, Kong Xiuli.

Just a few days ago, the academy received an order from the Secretariat, stating that one month later, the academy will hold an election competition for a new president. Based on a comprehensive evaluation, a talented person will be selected to become the next president of the academy and take charge of the academy.

"Actually, Miss, according to the family tree, you are also eligible to participate. It's just that when the master was alive, he strictly forbade the girls in the family to read and write. He wanted to find a good husband of equal status for you so that you could marry and enjoy a happy and stable life without worries." Xiaozhi said respectfully.

Of course, as a progressive woman with modern ideas, Cen Jiexiao naturally understands that gaining pure love and having a happy family are the goals that many women yearn for.

However, all these beautiful results must be based on the mutual attraction and dedication of two independent individuals and true equality.

In her view, as long as the so-called "male superiority, female inferiority, preference for sons over daughters," the idea that virtue comes from lack of talent, and the notion that women are useless persist, women will never find balance in the balance of marriage and family. They may be favored for a while, but over time, their glory will fade and they will surely fall apart.

Sister Cen Xiao pondered this information, calculating in her mind. Indeed, after surviving, one must always consider how to establish oneself. She wanted to give up, but giving up would require marriage. Forget it, she should do something serious.

"Xiaozhi, how many female students are there in Zhaoyin Academy now?"

Xiaozhi rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, and then said, "It's not common for women to study in the Great Zhou. It's quite rare. Therefore, there are about forty women studying at Zhaoyin Academy. Compared with other academies, this number is second to none in the entire Great Zhou."

Sister Cen Xiao seemed to be lost in thought. Modern social experience tells her that mastering knowledge means mastering the future, especially in ancient times when knowledge was not well developed.

Women's education is underdeveloped, which may be an opportunity for the time traveler Sister Cen Xiao. If it were to open up - to admit women to school! Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel excited.

To provide women with education, it was necessary to learn more about the lives and work conditions of women in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Then, Sister Cen Xiao asked, "Xiaozhi, do you know what the majority of women in ordinary families did in their jobs? And are there any women who served in politics?"

Xiaozhi replied with difficulty, "Miss, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, most unmarried young women followed the orders of their fathers and brothers, obeying their fathers at home and their husbands after marriage. They often worked in farming or needlework. However, since the reforms initiated by the previous emperor, women's education is no longer considered unusual, so some women from wealthy families have the opportunity to receive education in academies. By the way, the female students in academies now mostly come from official or merchant families."

Xiaozhi paused and continued, "Even so, it's still rare for women to enter officialdom. After all, the dominant position in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty is still dominated by men."

Upon hearing this, Cen Jiexiao nodded, and had a clearer understanding of the situation of women in this era.

At this time, a great plan had already sprouted in her mind. For her, it was not only a challenge, but also an ambition that she had wanted to accomplish but had not been able to realize.

This grand plan is that Cen Jiexiao is determined to use modern knowledge and ideas to gradually open up a broader space for development for women in the Zhou Dynasty.

The sunlight shone through the window, and she took steady, deep breaths to suppress her slightly excited emotions.

The status of a principal in this era is equivalent to that of the head of a university in modern society. In ancient times when educational resources were scarce, this was an absolutely high-power position that should not be underestimated.

Thinking of this, I felt a little excited.

Well, now that I'm here, let's carry out the subversion to the end. Sister Cen Xiao smiled slightly and thought to herself, "Great!"

What kind of person Cen Jiexiao was in the past is already in the past, but the current Cen Jiexiao vows not to let anyone else step on her ideals.
