Seeing that Mr. Jiao had also come with his students, Wei Yan stood up and greeted him.
"Sister Qingtian, why are you here too?" Ye Changhan took advantage of the two gentlemen's greetings to move closer to Qingtian and whispered to her, "What have you been busy with recently? You don't come to our house to play anymore."
Qingtian did not rush to answer his question, but waited for Mr. Wei and Mr. Jiao to finish speaking, then followed Qin Hexuan to greet Mr. Jiao.
Then he turned around and said to Ye Changhan: "Brother Changhan, I want to go to Brother Qin's house to study!
"Besides, aren't you and Brother Changkun also going to study with Mr. Jiao now?"
Seeing this, Madam Lu couldn't help but smile and said to Mr. Jiao, "Look, when Mr. Wei's students are put together with yours, the difference is obvious."
Mr. Jiao was not angry after hearing this, although he would occasionally feel envious when he saw other students being well-behaved and polite.
But if he were to accept such a student, he would find it boring.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wei raised his finger and pointed at Mr. Jiao and said to Madam Lu, "You don't know, he once said that obedient, sensible, studious and motivated students will study hard no matter who they follow. How can this show his ability as a teacher?
"So he just likes to teach those kids who have been naughty since they were young."
Madam Lu shook her head repeatedly when she heard this: "Mr. Jiao is still the same as before, full of crooked ideas."
Mr. Jiao just smiled and said: "You are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish?"
Madam Lu asked everyone to sit down and said, “I have already told the Queen that I will bring Young Master Qin and Qingtian to see her.
"The Queen loves children, so even if there are two extra children, it shouldn't be a problem.
"But the Queen is resting right now, so let's chat here first. I'll take you to meet the Queen when it's convenient."
Ye Changhan and Ye Changkun were stunned when they heard this. Wasn’t she a princess? How did she become a queen?
But what does the Queen mean?
Fortunately, Mr. Wei seemed to understand everyone's doubts and said to Madam Lu, "Why don't you let Madam Lu introduce the queen to the children while there is still time? It will also broaden their horizons."
Upon hearing Wei Yan's request, Madam Lu agreed without hesitation.
It turns out that this queen was originally a princess of a small country in the West.
Although their country is not large, it is not only close to the sea, but also rich in minerals, and produces a lot of gold, silver and gems.
After the Great Qi completely lifted the maritime ban, their country began to trade with the Great Qi.
They used the gold, silver and gems that were abundant in their own countries to exchange for Da Qi's porcelain, silk, tea and other scarce goods, and then sold them to other countries that were not on the coast, making huge profits.
"Beatrice has an older brother, an older sister, and two younger brothers.
"But she was the smartest and most courageous child in the family. As a teenager, she was already in charge of all transactions between her country and Da Qi, and she earned countless fortunes for the royal family.
"I was traveling in the West and encountered pirates hijacking my ship at sea.
“It was Beatrice who personally led her men to help us repel the pirates and saved the lives of all of us on our ship.
“I didn’t know her identity at the time, but out of gratitude and admiration for her skill, I became friends with her.
"She took me on a tour of her own country and several small countries around it.
“Two months after we met, she suddenly wanted to invite me to her home so I could witness her coming-of-age ceremony.
"I didn't think much of it at the time. I thought it was just like the coming-of-age ceremony for women in the Great Qi Dynasty, where I needed to invite my close friends to attend. I immediately agreed and went home with her.
“It was only when I arrived at her house that I realized she was actually a princess.
“I thought this was the biggest surprise, but the real surprise, or maybe even a shock, would come on the day of the ceremony.
"After presiding over her coming-of-age ceremony, Beatrice's father publicly announced his decision to abdicate and pass the throne to his youngest daughter. He also said that he believed Beatrice would lead all his people to a happier and more prosperous life.
"Then she appeared before me, donning the golden crown and ascending the highest throne."
When Madam Lu reached this point in her story, the children in the room were already fascinated by her words.
"You will never guess what the first thought that came to my mind when I saw Beatrice sitting on the throne was."
Ye Changhan continued, "What is it?"
After he said that, he thought to himself that if he grew up and traveled outside, he would also be able to encounter such legendary things.
If it were him, he would definitely be very happy, because his friend suddenly became the leader of a country, which was such a surprise.
After keeping the topic a secret for a moment, Madam Lu continued, "At the time, all I could think about was her brother, sister, and two younger brothers suddenly rebelling."
Everyone in the room laughed softly after hearing this.
"When I looked over, I found that the four of them were very happy and were clapping their hands vigorously.
“After the ceremony, Beatrice told me that, unlike here, both sons and daughters have the same inheritance rights.
"Her eldest brother is a painter who is obsessed with painting all day long and has no idea about the throne.
"Her eldest sister is already married, and her husband is the king of a neighboring country.
"My two younger brothers are still young and don't have any outstanding talents yet.
