The following days were spent leisurely learning the rules on sunny days.
The academy for the five children of the Ye family was finally found, Yunqi Academy, which was just two streets away from Mrs. Ye’s restaurant.
This way, the children can live directly in the backyard of the restaurant without having to look for a house alone.
Yunqi Academy is quite famous in the capital, and several students in the academy have achieved excellent rankings in the previous two imperial examinations.
So even though the tuition at the academy is a little more expensive than elsewhere, considering the level of the teachers and the fact that it is close to home, the Ye family finally decided to let their children study here.
The five children were very excited during the first two days of going to the academy.
Although it is a new environment, I have to face new teachers and classmates.
Fortunately, the five children of the Ye family were together, so they all had each other's company and there was no tension or worry.
But after attending the academy for a few days, the children were no longer the same as they were at the beginning.
While busy, Mrs. Ye discovered something was wrong and went to ask Ye Changrui about it.
Ye Changrui said, "Auntie, it's okay. It's just that the pace of the Beijing Academy is different from that of the village. We are new here and are still a little uncomfortable with the adaptation."
Mrs. Ye also thought what he said made sense, after all, it was an academy in the capital!
Moreover, Ye Changrui has always been the most motivated child in the family, so he probably wouldn't hide anything about his studies.
So Mrs. Ye showed some concern but didn't investigate further.
Recently, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory finally calculated the days for the princess's enthronement. In two days, she will enter the palace to participate in the enthronement ceremony and officially become a princess of the Great Qi.
So Mrs. Ye has been thinking about this matter these days, and it is inevitable that she has neglected some of the abnormal behaviors of her children.
After Ye Changrui coaxed Mrs. Ye away, he turned back to his room and sat face to face with his four younger brothers, discussing something in a low voice.
A few days later, it was the auspicious day for conferring the title on the princess.
Princess Rui also specially invited Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye to the palace to watch the ceremony.
Although the couple had been to the palace before, they had never witnessed such a large occasion.
But even though they were very nervous, they were reluctant to give up this opportunity and wanted to witness this great day for their child with their own eyes.
Fortunately, all the civil and military officials in the court were also going to come to watch the ceremony, and Ye Qingshan was naturally among the invited guests.
Boss Ye and his wife stayed by his side all the time. He felt much more at ease with a relative by his side.
Although the ceremony of conferring the princess had been repeatedly simplified by the Ministry of Rites due to Prince Rui's strong protest, the ceremony still took too much time and involved too many things for a child.
The Minister of Rites was afraid that Qingtian would make mistakes, so he specially arranged two palace maids to serve and advise her.
But with Qingtian's memory, it was just a ritual process, how could he not remember it?
I saw a small child on a sunny day walking into the hall alone, kneeling down to pay respects, then adding layers of formal attire, putting on a headdress, and finally dressed in gold and jade, he once again knelt down to pay respects to the ancestors, until the ceremony was finally over.
The whole process took an hour, but Qingtian didn't make any mistakes or forget anything.
Prince Rui and his wife looked at their daughter standing dignifiedly on the steps in a princess dress, their faces filled with pride.
Boss Ye and his wife were watching intently.
Ever since Qingtian appeared in the hall, the two of them immediately forgot all their nervousness and their eyes were filled with only Qingtian's figure.
When she finally saw Qingtian wearing a princess dress and a golden crown on her head, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but want to cry, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up.
She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that all the bad experiences were over, and that Qingtian's future life would be smooth and prosperous.
The enthronement ceremony had just concluded, and the Emperor was saying to Prince Rui, "Stay in the palace for dinner today. Your sister-in-law has already had many precious ingredients prepared, just waiting for today!"
Before the emperor finished speaking, someone suddenly came in from outside, knelt on the ground, holding a sealed wooden box in his hands.
"Your Majesty, an urgent report from the northwestern border, eight hundred miles away."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was startled.
Ye Qingshan's expression also became serious, and he frowned as he looked at the person who came.
Boss Ye and Sister Ye were confused and asked him in a low voice.
"It must be a matter of utmost urgency before the 800-mile express delivery of the memorial can be used.
"I wonder if something happened in the northwest border."
Upon hearing this, Boss Ye said, "If something happens over there, the Emperor won't send you to fight while you're sick, right?"
At this moment, he was still worried about Ye Qingshan.
Not to mention that the northwestern border is far and difficult, and the war is brutal.
Ye Qingshan has finally returned to the capital to take up his post, which is much safer than staying in the northwest. What if something happens when he returns?
But this was not what Ye Qingshan was worried about at all.
Today is the ceremony to confer the title of princess on Qingtian. If the news brought is very bad, it may greatly affect Qingtian's impression in the emperor's mind.
In serious cases, the emperor might even think that Qingtian is unlucky, and become alienated from her or even dislike her.
This is not something Ye Qingshan is overthinking.
Similar things happened in the previous dynasty.
Boss Ye and Sister-in-law Ye didn't know, and he wasn't in a position to say it, but from where he was standing, Prince Rui and Princess Rui's expressions had changed.
However, the 800-mile express report absolutely does not allow any delay.
