[Master, mind your character. You are a subject now, how can you tell the emperor the truth! If he gets angry and wants to punish you, I'll have to waste my divine power to transfer the punishment to him.]
Emperor Mingxi: My Lord, do you not even have the most basic trust between humans and divine artifacts? Which eye of yours saw me dare to punish the Little Immortal Lord?
It even shifted to him! He... was genuinely scared!
She even tried to instigate the little immortal to not tell him the truth. Is this a matter of speaking? This is sowing discord between them! (JPG showing her biting her handkerchief in a huff)
"I understand, I understand. The emperor isn't that petty. Besides, I can't be your master and act all cautious and subservient!"
Emperor Mingxi, upon hearing her words, did not get angry. Instead, he laughed and said loudly, "You are still young, so naturally your minds are all on playing."
However, my primary purpose in having you study is that studying will enable you to understand principles, cultivate your character, establish virtue, broaden your knowledge, and become well-versed in worldly affairs.
If any of you can live up to these sixteen words, then your studies will not have been in vain.
Yue Fuguang nodded. "Your Majesty is right."
Master, you definitely don't think that's what you really mean, do you?
"You already know, why are you asking?"
[Isn't the owner planning to throw some physics, chemistry, biology, or geography at these people to give them a shock?]
"If we just dump those things on them, do you think they'll understand? They haven't even figured out how to handle a simple alchemy furnace explosion!"
Indeed, the explosion of the alchemy furnace is also a matter of chemistry. If it is researched and a clever person makes use of it, why would the Dayan Army need to fear the cavalry of Beili and Xiqiang?
I heard that the lacquer sent as tribute from Liangzhou is just sitting in the warehouse collecting dust. These people really don't know how to use good things.
Lu Qi and Huo Ying exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes. They couldn't help but prick up their ears to listen carefully, but unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and the Divine Artifact stopped talking again!
No, their pants are all... their ears are all ready, and you're just going to let us hear this? My Lord, is it really okay for you to only say half of what you mean?
Should we even go to sleep tonight? I can wake myself up in bed so anxiously.
The two looked at their emperor again, and after meeting his equally ignorant gaze, they turned to look at Yu Chongshan.
Yu Chongshan turned his head away from them. These people just wanted to take advantage of his granddaughter. Let her say what she wanted; he wouldn't pry into it.
Ultimately, they are family!
Emperor Mingxi said, "If Fuguang gets tired of studying, he can tell his teachers and take a two-day break."
The seventh prince and the ninth princess immediately asked, "Father, can we ask for a break if we're tired from studying?"
The Ninth Princess was even smarter. She continued, "Father, I only need to rest for one day."
The seventh prince quickly added, "Father, I only need to rest for one day as well."
Emperor Mingxi was amused by the two little ones. Little Ninth was alright; as a princess, she could be found a good family to marry into and enjoy a life of wealth and luxury. How much she studied was up to her.
But the seventh prince is already twelve years old and still hanging around with the kids. His father feels ashamed!
So he scolded, "Seventh brother, are you itching for a beating? Do you want your older brothers to loosen your skin for you?"
The brothers, who had already returned to their classrooms next door to study after the morning court session, were all eager to try out their father's suggestion.
The sixth prince, who is only one year younger than the seventh prince, has wanted to beat his younger brother for a long time in a legitimate way!
Seeing his sixth brother already rolling up his sleeves, the seventh prince shrank back and quickly forced a smile, trying to please him. "Father, I was just kidding. Reading makes me happy, and knowledge helps me grow. I love reading so much, how could I possibly bear to rest?"
His words immediately amused everyone present. After the laughter subsided, Emperor Mingxi said, "Then tell your father when you can be promoted and move to study with your older brothers?"
The seventh prince, who had been quite pleased with himself for his cleverness, immediately deflated and stammered, "Your subject, your subject..."
His eyes lit up when he spotted his eighth sister and Yue Fuguang in front of him. He said, "Your subject wants to advance to the next class with the eighth sister and the Junior Tutor. The three of us are good friends, so of course we should go together."
The Eighth Princess turned and glared at the Seventh Brother. She never thought of her when good things happened, but when there was a pot of pot, this brother didn't hesitate to include her at all!
Yue Fuguang didn't care; she had just arrived and didn't feel any pressure about going to school.
[It's a pity about the Seventh Prince; his future death will be too tragic! And the Eighth Princess is also a pity!]
"Don't worry, we've got you covered. Xiao Ba will be fine."
Seventh Prince: It's fine if he dies a terrible death, since it hasn't happened yet. But the Junior Tutor said that Eighth Sister will be fine. Has he forgotten about me?
Aren't you going to make peanuts for me? (Feeling wronged - JPG)
The seventh prince really wanted to say something to make his presence known, but under the gazes of his father and brothers, he reflexively shrank back and decided to keep quiet.
The Crown Prince and several other princes thought: "Very well, we now know another brother is going to die a horrible death! It's foreseeable that the elder brothers will also meet a similar fate!"
Several people were a little envious of the Crown Prince and the Eighth Princess, as these two were people whom the two had explicitly stated they would protect.
At this moment, the Eighth Princess gripped her handkerchief tightly, trying hard not to cry.
Yue Fuguang's eyes darted around, and an idea came to her. She said, "Your Majesty, Fuguang will really take two days off in a few days!"
Emperor Mingxi smiled and nodded. "Alright, I grant permission on behalf of the masters. What are Fuguang's plans for his vacation?"
“I have a small estate, and spring is just around the corner. I’d like to go there in advance to see what crops are suitable to grow on the estate.”
At this point, Emperor Mingxi and his entourage immediately became interested. Although the Grand Tutor had promised His Majesty that he would provide high-yield seeds, it did not stop them from being curious about what strange things the Grand Tutor was growing on his estate.
Emperor Mingxi then asked with a smile, "Where is Fuguang's estate located? Is it big enough?"
"I've never been there either. My mother told me there's a plot of land over 100 acres and a small hill."
Having never farmed in her previous life, she had no idea how big this land was.
“More than a hundred acres is indeed too little!” Emperor Mingxi frowned slightly and said, “In that case, I will go out with you to relax and see whose land is around here. If it’s not enough for you to manage, then expand outwards.”
Yue Fuguang thought it made sense. Land bordering theirs couldn't possibly belong to an ordinary family; it was most likely land belonging to some powerful person.
She felt no remorse whatsoever at competing with these people for land to cultivate.
After thinking for a moment, Yue Fuguang added, "Your Majesty, my two older sisters will also be taking leave at the same time. We agreed to go to my estate together."
【Master, when did you tell them?】
"Tell me when you get home from school."
Yu Ningxin and Yu Ningxuan were touched that their seventh sister had thought of them, especially when they saw her talking so eloquently with His Majesty. They felt inexplicably proud.
It seems their father was right. With the arrival of the seventh sister, the daughters of the Yu family can choose not to be confined to the inner quarters of the house.
