Even if the watch were twice as big, Zhao Qingyan would still shower it with praise.
"Qingyang, you are a genius, no, you are a genius among geniuses."
That's amazing! Did you know that it's because of you that the technological development of the Divine Dragon Kingdom has been propelled forward?
Because of you, people no longer have to worry about not being able to accurately tell the time.
You are like a ray of light, your wisdom is enough to illuminate the earth, you are the glory of the Zhao family, you are your sister's pride.
"Your sister admires you..."
When Zhao Qingyan couldn't find any better words of praise,
Zhao Qingyang's face had been praised by her older sister until it looked like a ripe red apple.
Adhering to the educational philosophy of encouragement and reward,
Zhao Qingyan ran back to her room and brought Zhao Qingyang a large pile of white paper, pencils, and erasers.
Of course, this was so that Zhao Qingyang could draw more accurately.
Zhao Qingyan specially rummaged through a corner of the warehouse and found a standard set of drawing tools.
"Little brother, there's only one set of these drawing tools in the world. You must use them carefully. If you lose them or they break, your sister will truly never have them again."
Zhao Qingyan was filled with regret; why hadn't she emptied the bookstore when she was stockpiling goods?
There's no going back in life, but being able to get this set of free gifts is already a blessing.
In addition to material rewards, children must be treated to delicious food, so the whole family enjoyed a sumptuous seafood feast.
As for where the seafood came from, the two little ones have gotten used to it over the years; if their sister doesn't tell them, they don't ask.
Just keep eating and don't worry about growing taller.
Besides following Zhao Minggeng and Zhao Qianci around every day to learn how to handle government affairs, Zhao Qingbei also...
The rest of the time, he would take his easel and squat on the city wall to draw.
Paint grasslands, paint cattle and sheep, paint people.
The soldiers on the city wall already knew this young scholar.
Of course, Zhao Qingbei didn't go out alone.
There were always two guards following behind her. These two guards were selected from the sales home.
They learned a lot from Zhao Qingyi.
Including painting, Zhao Qingbei also gave them painting paper and paint.
However, neither of them really knew how to hold a paintbrush.
As for sketching, the two boys learned quite well. They studied it little by little, and the figures they drew were about 50-60% similar to the real people.
This is already a great talent.
These two children are talented in both reading and martial arts. When Zhao Qingbei was studying, they would also receive guidance from Zhao Qianci.
Therefore, Zhao Minggeng decided to let Qingyi's two guards try out for the next year's imperial examination.
Time flies, and half a year has passed since I took office in Davar.
A message came from Zhao Yonggeng, saying that his Qinglin was being pestered by Prince Rui and asking for help.
My goodness, this is absolutely terrifying!
How old is Prince Rui? He seems to be at least ten or eight years older than Zhao Qinglin, right?
Zhao Qianci had already read the letter more than a dozen times.
I hope that if I watch it again, I can see the differences.
Everyone was confused. Wasn't Prince Rui in the capital? How did he get entangled with their daughter?
The reason was actually quite simple: after Prince Rui returned to the capital, he voluntarily returned the military tally and became a leisurely prince.
But these matchmaking banquets came one after another, with young ladies from this family and girls from that family all wanting to get into the Prince's mansion.
Those from high-ranking families naturally want to be the principal wife, while those from lower-ranking families dream of becoming concubines.
For officials and their families without any ambitions, becoming a leisurely prince is definitely a good way to elevate their social standing.
Since ancient times, beautiful women have loved heroes, and Prince Rui was a god in the hearts of many young ladies.
Prince Rui was summoned to the palace by the Emperor once again.
"My son is handsome and talented. Do you have a girl you like? Your father will arrange a marriage for you."
Prince Rui was at his wit's end.
"Father, I beg you, please don't ask me about my marriage anymore."
Marriage is a matter for fate; I haven't met anyone who moves my heart yet.
The emperor, of course, disagreed upon hearing this.
"My son, don't think too much. Back in my day, when I was your age, your father already had several children."
You can take your time to find the person who makes your heart flutter; you're the same age too.
Even if they don't help the royal family have more children, at the very least, they shouldn't turn the royal palace into a Buddhist temple.
"It won't do if not even a female mosquito can fly in; it's bad for your health..."
After being showered with loving words of praise by the Emperor, Prince Rui knelt down and kowtowed.
"Your Majesty, I am grateful for your kindness. I only wish to be with one person for life. When I find the one who suits my heart, I will definitely ask Your Majesty for a decree to grant me marriage."
I have met most of the young ladies in the capital.
If Father Emperor does not object, I wish to travel and explore the beautiful landscapes of this land.
Perhaps my destiny lies on a journey, in a distant place.
The Emperor was at his wits' end. He thought the boy might have health problems, but the imperial physician took his pulse and said the boy was in excellent health.
You might say this kid has some kind of mental problem, but I've never seen him give any man a strange look.
Oh my, it's really hard not to get married.
In the end, the father and son reached a two-year agreement: Prince Rui could go on a trip, but he had to bring back a daughter-in-law.
As long as he isn't born into a lowly social class, it's fine. Otherwise, he will definitely be betrothed to her, and she won't be able to object.
Even more surprisingly, the father and son signed a marriage agreement.
Rong Fuhai watched from the sidelines, thoroughly enjoying himself.
Prince Rui took his copy of the agreement and left.
Upon returning to the palace, he ordered his luggage to be prepared, as he wanted to go out and have fun.
As soon as the order was given, the entire mansion sprang into action. Everyone was eager to go out with the prince.
It was one thing for guards and secret agents to follow, but even the head chef, Wang Liansheng, wanted to come along.
"Your Highness, please take me with you."
Over the years, the prince has suffered greatly while fighting on the front lines.
My heart aches. I'll take care of the prince on the way.
I'll make the braised fish, stewed chicken with pork tripe, and stir-fried mutton with scallions that Your Highness loves. Rest assured, I will absolutely not cause you any trouble.
"Or, I'll pay for my own travel expenses and let me come with you."
When Wang Liansheng, carrying his wok, casserole dish, and kitchen knife, boarded the carriage and followed Prince Rui's carriage out, the guards left behind in the Prince's mansion were not calm.
"Holy crap, this works? You can just stick around like that? Let's do it this way next time."
Because of Prince Rui's trip this time, the style of Prince Rui's mansion has changed.
Each and every one of them, in order to go out with you later, would throw tantrums, act pitiful, and express their determination in every way imaginable.
This is not the fault of the guards.
There wasn't much to do at the Prince Rui's residence, and most of the staff had been wounded on the battlefield to varying degrees.
They were placed in the Prince Rui's residence to provide for their old age.
But they were not comfortable with just eating and drinking for free and not doing anything for Prince Rui.
Taking advantage of the Prince Rui's absence, they discussed and refined their shameless techniques, gradually mastering them to perfection.
