Respecting teachers and valuing the Way?
Xie Rang chuckled and silently repeated the word in his mind.
He could abide by the latter, but was Yun Qing really the same tutor he used to know?
Since she wasn't the Grand Tutor appointed by the late Emperor, this logic was flawed from the start. He wouldn't forget the kindness of her teachings, but he also wouldn't let that status become an obstacle between them.
Moreover, would the Grand Tutor really be someone who cares about status? The answer is undoubtedly yes.
But after glancing at Yun Qing's expression, Xie Rang felt it was best not to provoke the Grand Tutor at this time. He didn't respond, but obediently took a step back to the side.
He chuckled softly, "Grand Tutor, please don't be angry. Of course I remember. You are my...Grand Tutor."
The boy emphasized the last two words, and Yun Qing felt a chill run down her spine. She suddenly looked up, almost thinking that Xie Rang had discovered something.
No, Xie Rang has never met the original owner of this body, so he couldn't possibly know. Besides, my personality is quite similar to the original owner's.
Apart from the couple who knew the truth, even Diancui Qinglan, who had always served her closely, and even Uncle Jiang, no one noticed the changes in Yun Qing. Yun Qing did not think that her identity would be discovered to be different.
[He always talks so strangely, is this little brat just keeping me hanging?]
Xie Rang was a little disappointed that he had been discovered.
Yun Qing calmed herself down briefly and said, "Let's go back. It's not good for Your Majesty to stay outside for too long."
Although he knew he was under the protection of the secret guards, he was still in trouble if there were assassins mixed in with the crowd. The Little Tyrant might not be called the Little Tyrant anymore, but he was still a thorn in the side of many people.
Xie Rang stared at her and smiled: "Grand Tutor, you're always so soft-hearted."
Even though she knew his feelings and wanted to stay away, at this moment, her biggest concern was his safety.
Even though there's no chance of any progress for the time being, Xie Rang still couldn't help but feel happy.
Yun Qing choked: "I just don't want the country to be without a ruler and the world to be in chaos."
After all, it was a career he had worked so diligently for so long, and Yun Qing couldn't just carelessly forget about it. He cared about Xie Rang because he was the monarch!
It's definitely not because of any romantic love!
Having said that, Yun Qing didn't want to stand there and keep arguing with him any longer, so she took a step forward.
Xie Rang was taken aback and quickly caught up.
In this world, only the Grand Tutor dared to discuss the affairs of the ruler of the world so openly. Xie Rang did not feel offended at all; on the contrary, he was happy because only such a person was his Grand Tutor.
He stood beside Yun Qing and explained, "Grand Tutor, rest assured, I would never joke about the country and its people."
This was the culmination of his and the Grand Tutor's hard work; Xie Rang would never do such a thing.
Yun Qing paused, unsure whether she should be happy that she had raised a reasonably competent emperor.
...
They returned to the imperial palace.
The next day, Yunqing asked Shunfeng and learned that Xie Rang had run away halfway through his lake trip. He had been wearing a gloomy face, which frightened Dai Liangchun and the other officials, who thought they had done something wrong to anger the emperor.
When Xie Rang finally left, all the officials breathed a sigh of relief.
Yun Qing: ...
Shunfeng looked worried, unsure whether to offer advice or not. In the end, he could only cautiously say, "Lord Li, why...why would you lie to His Majesty?"
Shunfeng has seen his share of ups and downs. Although he was shocked when he learned about what happened last night, he quickly recovered because he had already caught a glimpse of something amiss.
Your Majesty suffered a tragic childhood, but now holds great power. Yet you never hesitate to delegate authority to Lord Li. Shunfeng can see that this requires a great deal of trust, which is truly remarkable for an emperor.
Your Majesty acts without restraint, and the distinction between ruler and subject is merely a matter of his whim. Although Lord Li is a man, and this matter is indeed somewhat immoral, it seems to me that if they were truly separated completely, it might cause irreparable harm.
Yun Qing frowned slightly. Perhaps because she knew too many people, she easily saw the unease in Shunfeng's eyes and asked, "You know?"
Shunfeng was startled: "This servant is terrified!"
Yun Qing didn't make things difficult for him, and calmly said, "His Majesty knows I was lying to him. The Grand Eunuch should not interfere in this matter anymore."
When even the Grand Steward was called out, Shunfeng immediately understood that Lord Li was truly angry. He wiped away a bead of cold sweat and said, "Yes."
In fact, it was already somewhat foreseeable how bumpy the road would be for His Majesty and the Imperial Tutor. His Majesty was wholeheartedly devoted to it, but unfortunately, Lord Li seemed to be completely incapable of understanding love!
It's difficult.
Yun straightened her cuffs. Although she didn't want to have much contact with Xie Rang at this time, she wanted to get the important matters settled as soon as possible, because it would be too late to make arrangements before leaving.
Her whereabouts outside couldn't be kept secret. As soon as Xie Rang returned, he went into his room, clearly waiting for her to come to him.
The young emperor was incredibly capable, but he never expected that one day it would all backfire on her.
As soon as Yun Qing stepped inside, the door was slammed shut behind her, as if afraid she would run away again.
she:……
The documents on Xie Rang's desk were all submitted by Dai Liangchun, and they were mostly about the development of Jiangnan in recent years. Xie Rang was looking at them when he saw her come in, and his eyes lit up and he stood up.
"Grand Tutor, please sit down."
There were only two chairs in the room. Perhaps to lower Yun Qing's guard, the other chair was placed neatly opposite, at a safe distance.
[What a brilliant strategy of retreating to advance!]
Yun Qing felt that it would be strange for her to suddenly change her way of getting along with the little tyrant, so she lowered her eyes and sat down.
She then took out the blueprints provided by the system.
"Most spinning wheels used in Jiangnan today are single-spindle. If they were replaced with three-spindle ones, it would greatly improve spinning efficiency. If cotton is successfully promoted in the future, the spinning speed should also be increased as soon as possible. You can tell Lord Dai to pay more attention to this aspect."
Yun Qing remained calm and clearly stated her purpose for coming in just a few words. She knew that the longer she stayed here, the worse it would be, so she prepared to leave after speaking.
But Xie Rang didn't give her a chance to speak.
"I've made a note of that."
Xie Rang is always happy to accept good suggestions. He and Yun Qing have reached an unspoken understanding, and he has never asked her where these things came from. He just needs to find a way to help promote them.
He stepped forward, subtly placed his hand on Yun Qing's shoulder, and asked with a smile, "Grand Tutor, did you come here just to discuss official business with me?"
His skillful manipulation, almost without any sense of oppression, effectively restrained Yun Qing from leaving, causing her previously gentle emotions to become as taut as a string.
It seems like it could explode at any moment.
