Chapter 512: Make us feel inferior to you?
Su Yueyao and a few others followed the chief priest and the chancellor to wander around the Imperial College. They saw teachers teaching carefully in each room.
The students are studying very hard, and it really feels like going to school for the college entrance examination.
This is indeed better than the Academy of Literature, where students mainly study the subjects that have been evaluated. There are many literati and scholars, but very few people with literary knowledge.
However, the main subject of study here is Chinese classics. She even heard classes providing in-depth analysis of the two books she wrote, Thousand Character Classic and Three Character Classic.
"The Thousand Character Classic and Three Character Classic written by Miss Su are indeed good books. The Imperial College now requires every student to memorize them before admission." The chief academician said with a smile.
Su Yueyao smiled when she heard this. This book is an enlightenment book that has been passed down for thousands of years, how could it be bad?
Afterwards, they arrived at a yard and found a group of students sitting at a table, as if they were taking an exam.
"Ms. Su, today is the day for the Imperial Academy's poetry and calligraphy test. I heard that Ms. Su is also an excellent poet. Why don't you take part in this test?" said the Chief Supervisor.
"I appreciate your kindness, Lord Jijiu, but your country's knowledge and assessment rules are different from those of my country. I am not suitable to participate in your country's assessment." Su Yueyao declined politely.
"But since it's an opportunity to learn and exchange, I'm happy to observe."
The chief priest nodded, expressing his appreciation for Su Yueyao's humility. After all the students had handed in their papers, the chief priest appeared with Su Yueyao.
"Students greet the Master of the Imperial Priestly Course." Everyone stood up and saluted.
"This is Lady Su Yueyao from Fengluan Country, the student who wrote the Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Classic."
Many students looked at Su Yueyao in disbelief. Some of them had heard about Su Yueyao's deeds and looked at her with admiration, and some even had a hint of love in their eyes.
There are also some people who simply don't believe that Su Yueyao has such talent, and their eyes are filled with disbelief.
Then someone asked: "Sir, how could this girl be so talented? I heard that Miss Su's husbands are all outstanding. Are they..."
"My lord, Lady Su is a student who has participated in the evaluation of our country's Academy of Literature. Her talent and paintings have been confirmed by our country's great scholars and Her Majesty the Queen, who personally issued an edict to confer her the title of Grand Tutor to the Crown Princess."
"You start questioning her right away. Do you think the Fengluan Kingdom's Academy of Literature is partial to others? Or is it that our emperor doesn't know people well?" Gongyang Ruoyu said directly.
"I...I don't...I just don't believe that a woman can have such great talent." The man said intermittently.
"If you don't believe me and dare to question Lady Su like this, you can ask the son of the Regent, your young master. He is also a student who was admitted to the Academy of Literature this year. He personally witnessed Lady Su's evaluation."
As soon as Gong Yang Ruoyu finished speaking, Wei Jihua said, "This prince can testify that Lady Su is truly talented in every subject, and the literary books she has written have never appeared in Fengluan Country before."
"I don't believe it, unless Miss Su gives us a competition. If you beat us, we will acknowledge your talent." The man continued.
Su Yueyao snorted coldly when she heard this: "If you question me, you should produce evidence to prove that I plagiarized, or that I hired someone to write for me. And why should I compete with you? Are you going to compete with me on behalf of all the students present?"
"Master Jijiu, your Imperial College is nothing but this. Are you planning to use these dozen students against me alone? Although I am sure I can beat them, I am really disgusted by this behavior of using numbers to bully the minority!"
"You...you are..."
"Shut up, Miss Su. I didn't teach my students well. I hope you will forgive me."
"Please forgive me, I will not finish now. I have already been here today, and I have fulfilled the regent's request, so be it." Su Yueyao did not say anything more to them and turned away.
"Ms. Su, wait a minute. This student doesn't know about your deeds, so he is questioning you." The chief priest immediately stopped Su Yueyao and said.
"No matter what I did before, I came here today as a student and scholar. You students of the Imperial College must treat me with courtesy. What you just said is that a woman like me cannot have such literary talent."
"What's wrong with women? According to your idea, women should stay in the backyard and enjoy the service of men. With such courage, why don't you go find the queen of your country, the regent said."
"I think the regent should stay in the backyard and not care about the country!" Su Yueyao said to the man who had just spoken.
The man turned pale and fell to the ground with weak legs.
Su Yueyao looked at the man and sneered. He was so bold as to question her like that.
"Ms. Su, your words are too harsh. His Majesty and the Regent would never say anything casually." The chief priest said in a heavy tone.
"I will take responsibility for what I have said. You are not the first to find fault with me. The Regent informed me in advance that I would come to your Imperial College today to exchange ideas with you. Didn't the Imperial College get the news?"
"You didn't arrange this student? Do you want to test my talent? Or do you want to give our Fengluan country a warning and make us feel inferior to you?"
"Ms. Su, this..."
"In that case, my talent and knowledge have nothing to do with your Dongli Kingdom. From today on, please remove the Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Classic from the teaching of the Imperial Academy."
"Why..."
"Just because it was written by me, I, Su Yueyao, published the book because I wanted all the literati in the world to read good books, remember the integrity of literati, and read to gain knowledge, instead of letting you read the book I wrote and question and slander me behind my back. I feel disgusted."
"From now on, no book I write, including calligraphy and paintings, will be lost in the Dongli Kingdom." Su Yueyao said and left.
After the Chief Priest and the Chief Secretary found that the situation was out of control, they wanted to stop Su Yueyao, but they were blocked by the Crown Prince and Gongyang Ruoyu.
"Chief of the Imperial Court, Supervisor of the Imperial Court, my mother wants you to have a good communication with Lady Su, not to find fault with her. You should think carefully about how to face my mother's wrath!" Wei Jihua said to the Chief of the Imperial Court and Supervisor of the Imperial Court who wanted to stop Su Yueyao.
The two of them were so scared that they broke out in cold sweats. Just the fact that Su Yueyao didn't allow them to read the three character classic and the Thousand Character Classic was a serious matter.
They are finished.
Su Yueyao left the Imperial College and got on the carriage.
"Ms. Su, I didn't know the Imperial College would do this. I'm sorry you've been wronged." Wei Jihua apologized.
"It's not your fault, that's fine! Tell me how much compensation I should ask your mother for afterwards?"
"I originally thought that cultural exchange and the natural flow of books would not cause me to say much, but today they are really going too far. If you in the Dongli Kingdom want to study the books I wrote in the future, do you have to pay money? How much do you think I should charge?"
