The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks【Complete】(194)
Prince Jin nodded with a stiff face, his hands still clasped behind his back: "That being the case, I will teach you from "Young Learning Qionglin" first, and you come with me."
He turned around and walked to the study. Yao Niang naturally forgot about being beaten, got up and followed him.
Xiaobao was left sitting there covering his face and looking at Huahua. Huahua meowed at him, and Xiaobao rolled up, slipped off the kang and followed.
When they got outside the door, they saw Hong Xi and others looking at the study room with worried faces. Xiao Bao was going to go, but Hong Fei hugged her.
"Young Master, you'd better not go. His Highness is angry with the Queen."
But Hong Silk gave Hong Fei a hand and whispered, "The young master is going to go only because His Highness is angry."
Only then did Hong Fei react and quickly let go of Xiaobao's hand.
Xiaobao and Huahua quietly pushed the door open and went in.
At the desk, King Jin was sitting behind the desk, and Yao Niang moved a chair to sit opposite him.
There was a book in front of Yao Niang. King Jin had no book in his hand, but he was explaining it to Yao Niang. It is exactly the opening chapter of "Young Children's Study in Qionglin" -
Chaos first opens, and the universe begins to be established. The light and clear air that floats up is called Yao, and the heavy and turbid air that condenses down is called earth.
Xiaobao had studied "Kindergarten Learning Qionglin" at the beginning of his elementary education. It can be said that he learned to read after learning it. After he learned this article, he read other books, and many allusions came naturally to him. It can be said that every child in the beginning of elementary school learned to read. All children will learn.
Yao Niang read along very seriously. When Xiao Bao came to Yao Niang's side, he didn't say anything but just pulled Yao Niang to hold him. Yao Niang carefully glanced at King Jin from below, and when she saw that his eyebrows did not move, she quietly held Xiao Bao on her lap and sat down.
Just like this, Yao Niang listened, and Xiaobao also listened.
Yao Niang thought he was going to cause trouble, but Xiaobao listened very seriously and seemed to follow along with the reading.
Later, King Jin's attention shifted to Xiaobao.
He looked at the person next to him coldly, but still read at the previous speed. Although Yao Niang has not studied this article, she is literate after all, so she is not as awkward as a beginner. Although she still couldn't understand some of the meaning, she had no problem reading it along.
But Xiaobao just listened to King Jin's story once, and even though he was illiterate, he recited it along with Yao Niang. Yao Niang had a book in front of her, but he didn't.
Remember what you hear? Excellent memory?
Obviously King Jin's knowledge and self-control were beyond ordinary people. He remained calm and read it again before stopping. He asked Yao Niang to read Qie Yun in the book, while he picked up Xiao Bao and said he was taking him out to drink water.
Yao Niang did not understand the mystery of all this. She was too focused and was temporarily afraid of the cold face of King Jin. She only looked at the book to see if she had read it correctly, and did not notice the clues at all.
As for Xiaobao's babbling, she didn't pay attention to it. Secondly, she just took it as a joke and didn't pay attention to what he was saying.
He took Xiaobao to the outer room and sat down, letting the girl serve tea. Taking advantage of this opportunity, King Jin said to Xiaobao: "Repeat what daddy just read to mommy, and tell it to daddy again."
Then Xiaobao restated the few paragraphs he had just learned to Prince Jin, word for word, without any mistakes.
Various complex emotions flashed across King Jin's face, but finally turned into silence. He took a deep look at Xiaobao and said calmly: "That's a good read. When my father teaches my mother, you will come with me. "
In fact, in these few breaths of time, King Jin thought a lot. If he could express his emotions at this time in words, it would probably be - my son is a child prodigy. I am so happy to be a father. I want to give it to the whole world. People know.
But at the same time, his usually restrained and forbearing character started to show up again. The higher he climbed, the worse he fell. He didn't know the story of Zhongyong's injury. At this time, Xiaobao is in a state of incomprehension. At this time of enlightenment, if a child is not careful, it will easily damage the child's wisdom.
In the end, King Jin chose to treat Xiaobao as normal, and he even thought about finding a teacher to teach Xiaobao. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to do it himself.
Yao Niang, who was in the house at this time, had no idea that because of a moment of playfulness, King Jin actually discovered Xiaobao's talent, so that Xiaobao was enlightened by King Jin when he was less than two years old.
The reason why Xiaobao wants to learn is so that he can change his name to a legitimate monster in the future. The King of Jin wanted to teach because he loved his son. So Yaoniang gained one more classmate, her son Xiaobao.
At first knowing that King Jin wanted to enlighten her son, Yao Niang thought it was a little early, but King Jin insisted, and Xiaobao also showed that he wanted to learn very much, so she could only nod in agreement.
Later, she discovered that her son had a photographic memory, and she was surprised and pleasantly surprised for two days. But that was all, because she found that Xiaobao's study progress was almost catching up with hers.
How could she be so embarrassed as a mother, so she worked harder and harder. Although it is not as hard as hanging beams to stab the buttocks, he is still very diligent and does not forget to hold the book and memorize it while sitting or lying down. King Jin, who had dug a hole for his own jumping, felt various depressions in his heart, which I will not mention here for the time being.
Both mother and son were busy studying, so they naturally forgot about their promise to visit the Duke's Mansion more frequently.
It was also too cold and it was inconvenient to go out.
During this period, Yao Niang remembered this and asked Yu Chan to go there with a small gift specially prepared for Yueyue, telling her about the inconvenience of going out in the cold weather and about her recent studies.
After Yu Chan came back, she said that Mrs. Qiao was ill and that it was an old illness. She also said that when the weather gets warmer and she recovers, she will take Yueyue to the palace as a guest and bring some more books to Yao Niang.
Because Yu Chan said that Qiao's condition was not serious, just a slight cough, Yao Niang didn't take it to heart. She planned to wait for a sunny day and then go to the Zhenguogong Mansion.
As for Xiaobao, he was the one who urged her to send something to Xiao Yueyue this time. When he heard that Mr. Qiao was ill, he felt nervous. When he heard that he just had a cough, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still decided to go to the Zhenguo Palace in a few days. As for how to get there, he needed to think of a way.

Yao Niang: sad face. jpg You are despicable, shameless and obscene, and you turn your back on me as soon as you pull up your pants!
Xiaobao: Innocent face. jpg Mom, you are suffering. It’s not that I don’t want to save you, it’s because we are so weak.
Huahua: The face of a cat licking its paws. jpg Meow meow, these people can do so many tricks if they just study.
King Jin: He is a role model and has a serious face. jpg I hit you for your own good.
Passerby A: Are you sure it’s not for other reasons?
Chapter 151
Zhen Guogong Mansion, Lan Ruo Pavilion.
Accompanied by a continuous cough, Qiao fell weakly on the pillow behind her.
Ru Meng hurriedly picked up the tea cup and wanted to give her some water. Mrs. Qiao also wanted to drink, but her throat was really itchy. But as soon as the water came in, she felt an unbearable itching again. She couldn't restrain it, and all the water spurted out.
Several girls were busy wiping her mouth and picking up the rags on the quilt.
Ru Meng patted her back gently and complained: "This medicine is of no use even if you take it. Why don't you ask a doctor to take a look? The old lady is also true. She just goes to the palace to ask the imperial doctor. Why can’t we do it? I’m afraid that people will think our family is arrogant!”
"Silence!" Mrs. Qiao scolded, coughed twice more, and then said: "My old problem doesn't last for a day or two. What my mother said makes sense. I didn't have to cough a few times before I went to the palace to ask for a doctor. You think it’s easy to invite an imperial doctor. The prince is not in the palace and my father-in-law has nothing to do. If you use my mother’s name to invite him, you have to go through the Empress Wei in the middle palace, so it’s not that troublesome.”
"Can……"
"Okay, Rumeng, I'm fine. You don't know about my illness? It's not serious, just that the cough is a bit annoying. It doesn't matter whether you take medicine or see a doctor. It will be fine after a while. "
Qiao said so, Rumeng could only listen.
The maids brought hot water and handkerchiefs, and two maids served Mr. Qiao and wiped her face and neck. Mrs. Qiao lay back on the soft pillow. Her face was pale and slightly abnormally flushed, obviously due to a severe cough.
A girl came to report that the Sixth Girl was here. Not long after, Qiao Xiuli was led in by the girl and walked forward with a worried look on her face.
"Sister Yan, are you feeling better?" No one noticed that as she approached the bed, she subconsciously looked at a sachet hanging on the bed.
"You still don't know about my old problem, it's nothing, don't worry." Qiao took a sip of tea, leaned on the soft pillow and said with a smile.
"I also know that Sister Yan has an old problem and will get better after a while, but I can't help but worry. Sister Yan seems to be sick for a longer time this time, but the medicine prescribed by the doctor is useless. Do you want to see another doctor? "
Mrs. Qiao waved her hand nonchalantly, "No, the medicine I have been taking is quite good..."
As she was talking, she started coughing again, and she couldn't stop the cough, no matter how much Mengwuhua patted her on the back. After coughing for several times, Mrs. Qiao gasped and took the handkerchief covering her mouth. No one noticed, but Qiao Xiuli saw a trace of red with her sharp eyes.
"There's blood!" she said in surprise.
Hearing this, Rumeng hurriedly took the handkerchief from Qiao's hand. As expected, the jade-white handkerchief had a few traces of blood on it. It's bright red, like wintersweet blooming in the snow, but it doesn't make people feel beautiful, but inexplicably scary.
There is also an allusion to the reason for this.
Mr. Qiao had an old cough. He consulted a doctor and took a lot of medicines, but no cure was found. Although Mr. Qiao is a direct descendant, Mr. Qiao is not without concubines. If he has concubines, he will have concubines and concubines. If there are too many of these people, trouble will inevitably arise.
For a while, there was a rumor in the Qiao family mansion that Qiao always coughed because she had tuberculosis.
Because of this, Grandma Qiao got angry, beat several servants to death, and sold a group of people. Mr. Qiao was also very annoyed and deliberately invited the most famous doctor in Jiangnan to diagnose Qiao's illness.
In fact, Qiao's cough is just an ordinary cough. The cause of this cough cannot be explained. It is not a cold or a strong liver fire. It just inevitably happens when the weather gets cold. Generally, it will take no more than a month to get better. After recovering from the illness, Mr. Qiao is no different from ordinary people.
