In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 507 The Worthless Thing is Life

"Lady Su, this is the wedding date chosen by my mother, the queen, for us. Would you like to take a look?" Wei Jihua took out a piece of red paper from his chest and handed it to Su Yueyao.

Su Yueyao took it and opened it. It said October 19th, five days later. This date was much earlier than she thought! She thought it would be set at the beginning of next month!

"This date is fine. I have no problem with it. Since I want to marry you as my concubine, you can choose two paintings as a betrothal gift." Su Yueyao said.

"Miss Su, are you really going to prepare a painting for me? I want a landscape painting and a photo of us, is that okay?" Wei Jihua said happily immediately.

"Okay." Su Yueyao agreed directly. Just two paintings.

"Thank you Miss Su, the wedding dress will be delivered in the next two days. I have a house in the east of the city. Would you like to customize it as our wedding room?"

"You can arrange these! I will move there before the wedding."

"Okay, Miss Su, my mother told me that the poetry competition has been cancelled because of the assassination, but she wants you to go to the National Academy of Dongli Kingdom tomorrow to have some exchanges with the students of Dongli Kingdom."

"What is the level of the literati in Dongli Kingdom? Which one is better, the National Academy here or the Literary Institute in Fengluan Kingdom?" Su Yueyao asked.

"The Fengluan Kingdom is powerful. The only difference between the National Academy here and the Literary Academy is that they recruit common people. The aristocratic families in the Dongli Kingdom were all cleaned up by my mother, and the children of aristocratic families without talent can't get in at all."

"My mother has specially built a private school in the Regent Palace. Any talented commoner can take the exam. If they pass, they can study in the private school. After that, they will take the Imperial College exam."

"The Fengluan Kingdom's Academy of Literature is dominated by students from aristocratic families. After all, one has to pass so many evaluations before one can enter. It is almost impossible for a small family to support a student."

"Students who enter the Academy of Literature must indeed have real talent and knowledge, and they are the sons of the royal family who are excellent in all aspects. However, after they become officials, they also do it for the sake of their family."

"But it's different in Dongli Country. As long as they have one strong subject, they can be admitted as an exception, and the essay only needs to be at a medium level." Wei Jihua said.

Su Yueyao couldn't help but sigh when she heard this. Dongli Kingdom has a regent. As long as she has the ambition to develop at this level, she will be able to unify this continent in the future.

"I understand. Tell your mother that I will go to the Imperial Academy tomorrow to take a look."

She will go and take a look and learn tomorrow so as to prepare for her promotion of the imperial examination system. There are too few private schools and academies in the future. First, there is a lack of books. Second, paper and study supplies are too expensive. Third, there are no teachers. These problems must be overcome!

"Okay, Miss Su, I'll go back first. I'll pick you up tomorrow."

"Nanfeng, please send Young Master Wei off." Su Yueyao said to Nanfeng who was sitting at the door.

"Good wife."

"My wife, do you want to learn the system of the National Academy of Dongli Kingdom?" the eldest prince asked directly.

"Yes! Master Wei is right. The number of students evaluated by the Academy of Literature is too small every year, and they are all children of aristocratic families. Your Majesty has always wanted to say goodbye to the control of the aristocratic families, so he should control these students himself."

"The wife's main thing is to change, and those noble families in Fengdu may not agree! Almost all students who graduate from the Academy of Literature will stay in Fengdu, and in the future they will all become high-ranking officials above the third rank."

“These families then won over the prefects and county magistrates of the lower prefectures, and even implemented direct inheritance. In the end, a prefecture became their own. Will the common people ever have a chance to rise up in the future?” Su Yueyao said helplessly.

When everyone heard Su Yueyao's words, they fell into deep thought. Wasn't what happened in Dongshi Mansion still vivid in their minds?

"This can't be done in one step. Let's go back and take our time! Why isn't Xingchen here? Where did he go?" Su Yueyao asked.

"Xingchen has gone to arrange the manpower. We lost some manpower yesterday." The eldest prince hesitated but still said it.

"Let's transport all the dead back and bury them!" Su Yueyao said.

All of this was done to protect her from getting into trouble.

"It has been arranged. This is their fate, and protecting their mistress is their only mission." said the eldest prince.

"I understand." Su Yueyao sighed.

Sometimes the least valuable thing here is life. She can't change anything and can't do anything.

Su Yueyao stood up and said, "I'm going to take a walk in the yard. I think you all were busy last night, so you should all go back and have a rest!"

Afterwards, Su Yueyao sat on the swing in the yard, moving back and forth, but her thoughts drifted far away.

She was indeed not in a good mood. There were some things that she was powerless to stop. In modern times, she had seen a joke online that said that if one day one traveled to ancient times, no matter what script it was, it would be difficult to survive an episode.

Come to think of it, what he said is true. She is able to reach her current level thanks to the knowledge learned in modern times. Without these, how could she have so much freedom in life and these handsome and outstanding men.

The most important thing is to travel through the right era.

The eldest prince and Nanfeng and others stood not far away, looking at Su Yueyao with some concern.

"Your Highness, is my wife okay?"

"You all should go and have a rest! I'll stay with my wife. She'll think it through. A lot has happened today. It's better to let my wife be alone for a while."

After hearing this, Nanfeng and his companions had some doubts but still left.

They had not yet slept with the wife, and had not even entered her heart, so they did not know how to comfort her. Even the three of them did not quite understand why the wife was in a bad mood.

The eldest prince waited for another half an hour before he walked over.

"Master wife."

"Your Highness, aren't you going to rest? I see there are shadows under your eyes."

"I'm fine. Is my wife feeling better?"

"Much better. Your Highness, don't you know why I'm in a bad mood?" Su Yueyao said with a sigh.

"I can probably understand a little bit. Before I set out to Dongli Country, my master told me something. He said that my wife's thoughts are different from ours. You treat everyone the same, especially without distinguishing between superiors and inferiors."

"Qianqian even specifically told you this!"

"Well, the master cares about his wife very much. He even understands your thoughts better than the rest of us."

"My dear wife, you are the most important in our hearts and nothing can happen to you. The people we arranged to protect you are there to protect you."

"Perhaps they will die while arranging other things in the future. This is their fate as secret guards."

"Your Highness, you don't have to explain to me. I know everything." Su Yueyao didn't want to talk about this topic anymore.

These young masters and princes from aristocratic families are used to seeing servants being beaten and killed, so their ideas and concepts are fundamentally different.

She had already adapted to it, and could even remain calm when seeing a living person being beaten to death in front of her, but they could not ask her to think that such behavior was right.
