Chapter 87 The Legendary Eunuch Qi (Part 9)



The emperor lived a muddled and aimless life, and the princes' efforts were also limited. Even when punished by copying books, they would not copy them themselves, so the library was usually deserted.

Wang Qingshan himself will not go. He is the son of a military general and is naturally bad at reading. He will also follow the path of a military general in the future.

Qi Qi: "It's only Chen Shi (7-9 AM) now, Young Master Wang. May I stay in the library and go see the Seventh Prince at noon?"

Wang Qingshan thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

Back in the study, Wang Qingshan carried the food box that Qi Qi had knocked over back to the library. He took a small silver ingot out of his pocket and gave it to Qi Qi: "Pay back the money you owe. If it's not enough, come to me."

Why not take advantage of a free lunch?

Qi Qi then saw him walking towards the school at a leisurely pace.

Qi Qi thought to himself, "Isn't this person afraid of the teacher?"

Qi Qi wasn't afraid and went inside the building. Chen Dianji, who had been glancing at the entrance several times, was shocked to see Qi Qi's miserable state and came out from behind to look at him: "Lai Bao?"

Qi Qi explained, "Good morning, teacher. I didn't mean to be late. Something just happened."

Chen Dianji: "What is your injury?"

Qi Qi didn't want him to worry, so she said, "I accidentally tripped and fell."

Chen Dianji felt a little sorry for him. The young eunuch had been quite well-behaved these past two days and had a pleasing personality, so he couldn't help but feel a sense of goodwill towards him. But now, seeing the conspicuous wound on the little white skin, his tone became somewhat serious.

"You careless child, how could you be so careless? Just walk slower, and you still managed to fall like this..."

Qi Qi: "It was just an accident. I promise I won't walk that fast again. Teacher, let's learn quickly!"

He made all sorts of faces and acted cute and charming, leaving Chen Dianji speechless and wondering if he had been too serious.

Two days ago we taught the Three Character Classic. Although we finished teaching it, I haven't fully digested it yet, so today we'll teach arithmetic.

Chen Dianji took out his arithmetic book, which he had prepared in advance, and arranged his paper and pen. With a little pride, he said, "My learning is not the best in the capital, but it is certainly not among the worst. Back then, I was one of the top three Jinshi in the second class... But let's not talk about that. In terms of arithmetic, I am not outstanding. I am just good enough to be an accountant."

That being said, Chen Dianji was only being modest.

But in less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, Chen Dianji looked blank, holding the list of basic questions and the standard answers to the advanced questions, and said, "This, you can do this?"

Qi Qi patted his chest and assured him, "Yes, yes, teacher, you can explain some more difficult questions to me now."

With a solemn expression, Chen Dianji added three points of difficulty to the original teaching plan.

Qi Qi: "Oh~ I see... I understand, I understand."

Chen Dianji silently continued teaching a question that had stumped him when he took the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai.

Before half a cup of tea could be brewed, Qi Qi exclaimed, "This is so easy! Teacher, trust me, I can do it!"

With trembling hands, Chen Dianji posed a question that had once stumped countless students: "There are pheasants and rabbits in the same cage. There are 35 heads and 94 feet. How many pheasants and rabbits are there?"

Seeing Qi Qi's troubled expression, Chen Dianji finally breathed a sigh of relief and was about to start answering his question when Qi Qi pondered for a few seconds, picked up a pen, and began to solve the problem on the paper.

Following the day before, Chen Dianji was once again greatly surprised: "So that's how it is...! Laibao, you have an amazing talent for mathematics!"

Just as he was about to present an even more difficult question, Qi Qi shook his head and said sadly, "Teacher, please wait."
