The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

Chapter 228: His Majesty the Emperor: "You will cause me to misunderstand."

The two of them were indeed very close, so he didn't need to say many things directly, Jiang Lingyue could feel it herself.

She was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting the Emperor to be so easily amused.

She didn't do anything.

Looking at that innocent little look, Qi Junyi sighed softly, "Still playing?"

"I don't want to play anymore." Jiang Lingyue obediently withdrew her hand and climbed onto his neck again, her movements extremely natural and intimate.

Qi Junyi couldn't bear to refuse.

He reached out and pinched the girl's smooth face, saying, "Go ahead and torment me."

It was a doting tone again.

Logically speaking, Jiang Lingyue should be used to hearing this.

But this time, perhaps the trust in my heart has deepened.

Maybe it's for some other reason.

In short, she felt a little embarrassed and subconsciously buried her face in the crook of his neck.

Even I didn't realize how intimate this action looked.

"Yueyue..." Qi Junyi held her waist lightly, enjoying her initiative to get close to him, and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously, "You will make me misunderstand if you do this."

Misunderstanding, you actually like me too.

Jiang Lingyue understood what he meant, but she still just buried her face in his neck and said nothing.

The intimate embrace between the two is so sweet and tender, so rare and so precious.

They didn't speak to each other. In the quiet hall, only the lightest breathing sounds could be heard.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Lingyue's lips on his neck moved and she called his name softly.

"Qi Hengzhi..." she whispered, "Don't be mean to me anymore."

"……it is good."

"Not allowed under any circumstances!"

It's a really unreasonable request.

But the beloved girl takes the initiative to stick to you, lean close to your ear, and her voice is soft and gentle.

Qi Junyi was not so cruel as to think about the so-called 'bottom line'.

He hummed softly and agreed, "Okay, I won't be mean to you anymore no matter what."

Jiang Lingyue was finally happy, and an unprecedented joy and excitement suddenly emerged in her heart.

It was like a hot spring suddenly appeared in my heart, gurgling and constantly spitting out bubbles of joy.

When she was happy, she subconsciously bit the soft flesh on his neck.

Just as he was about to bite it, he quickly reacted, let go, and then carefully held it in his hand and blew on it gently.

That series of actions amused Qi Junyi.

He couldn't help but chuckle, then pinched the girl's waist and pushed her against the window.

"What does Yueyue want to do?"

He looked at her with a smile and wanted to say something, but after their eyes met for only a few breaths, his gaze slowly changed.

The intoxicating pampering like a spring breeze faded away, and the deep eyes were as black as ink, full of aggression.

Jiang Lingyue's heart was pounding when she was looked at, and her mouth felt dry. She swallowed, and then everything in front of her went dark.

He held her face in his hands and kissed her.

The kiss was unhurried, yet it carried an irresistible force.

Soon, the hand with slender fingers reached for the belt around her waist.

As expected, after his wrist was grabbed, he continued to smile and said, "Be good, there's no one outside."

"no…"

In broad daylight, this is still a study.

Even if there's no one outside the window...

Her eyes were wet and her lips were red from his kiss.

Qi Junyi lowered his eyes and looked at her steadily, as if wondering whether he should agree to her.

Soon, Jiang Lingyue felt her waist tighten again, and her head was spinning.

When I reacted, my back was already pressed against the desk.

…………

The Imperial Concubine's idea decided to give all the women in Dahan another way out besides getting married and having children.

It was also destined to lead to sudden changes in the situation in the court.

On the second morning of the court session, when all the civil and military officials, as well as the major families in the capital, had not yet recovered from the shock of "the child in Concubine Zhao's belly was not His Majesty's", another bombshell exploded.

From now on, girls' schools will be reopened. Any girl who is ambitious and ambitious, regardless of whether she is married or not, can attend the school and does not need to pay tuition for two years.

This decree was conveyed directly without asking the officials for their opinions in the court.

One can imagine what kind of waves this caused.

Immediately, a censor came forward and said it was not possible.

Qi Junyi remained calm and said, "The Great Ancestor issued this order long ago. I am grateful for his aspirations and wish to follow his example. My dear, why don't you tell me what's wrong with it?"

This…

Even if one had the guts of ten bears and leopards, no one would dare to speak frankly in the court and say that the founding emperor's policies were wrong.

The officials looked at each other, but remained unwilling.

Suddenly, a man stepped out from the line of civil servants and said, "Your Majesty, it is not wrong to follow the example of Taizu. However, reopening the girls' school is a matter of great importance. Please listen to what I have to say."

The person who spoke was none other than the Third Rank Imperial Censor, Elder Wang. He held his tablet in his hand and bowed deeply.

"Historical records indicate that the last women's academy in Dahan disappeared a hundred years ago. Nowadays, apart from girls from noble families, literate women in Dahan are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Your Majesty wishes to reopen the women's academy, but where can we find teachers to teach the Dao?"

In the past, the world was in chaos. Except for the nobles, the common people, both men and women, were basically illiterate.

When academies were first established, they were mainly intended to allow men throughout the country to study, and women also benefited from it. With the help of the inner court founded by Empress Gaowu, they developed rapidly.

It’s different now.

Nowadays, all the scholars in the world are men.

It is difficult for a woman to study, even for a teacher.

Where can I find so many female teachers?

Dahan has a vast territory, and it is simply a fantasy to want to restore the splendor it had during the time of Empress Gaowu.

"This policy will not only cause anxiety, but will also be detrimental to maintaining long-term peace and stability in the Han Dynasty."

Censor Wang spoke earnestly, and every word was precious.

"Whether it's an ordinary family or a high-ranking official family, men are responsible for external affairs, while women give birth to children and manage domestic affairs. This is the way to long-term stability."

As he spoke, the old man knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "I hope Your Majesty will reconsider."

"I hope your majesty will think twice."

In the hall, most of the civil and military officials knelt down. Some who did not kneel were children from poor families and farmers who were promoted by Qi Junyi.

But even they were probably puzzled by the emperor's sudden decision to postpone the decree.

This was the first time Qi Junyi issued an imperial decree after ascending the throne, and so many people opposed it.

He listened quietly, and when he saw the officials kneeling on the ground, he showed no anger at being disobeyed. Instead, he tilted his head and ordered, "Liu Rong, go help the old man up."

"Yes!" Liu Rong bowed in agreement, then trotted down the stairs and helped up the old and frail Censor Wang who was prostrating himself on the ground.

Censor Wang didn't dare to make trouble and stood up.

"My dear, your words are quite reasonable. We really shouldn't rush into this matter."

Qi Junyi lowered his eyes and pondered for a few breaths, then finally decided: "Then let's start in the capital. There's no problem finding a few female tutors at the foot of the emperor."
