Shirley looked like she was full of gossip!
Emperor Shunzhi's face turned ashen.
Dongmei hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but held back.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Sister Dong'e clearly misses the Emperor!" Xue Li, being very knowledgeable, quickly gave Shunzhi a hint.
Shunzhi looked at Xue Li, who had such a sensible expression on her face, and for a moment felt an indescribable tightness in his chest.
He put down his chubby son, his face dark with anger, and left in a huff.
Sherry hurriedly led her servants back to the palace.
The chubby son was a little unhappy when we left.
"What are you doing?! You look like a little dumpling and you still want to read?! The hard times are yet to come!"
Sherry rubbed his little belly.
Jingrong covered her stomach without making a sound, while Jinghua leaned over and stuck out her little belly for Xue Li to touch.
"Hey, I want to read and learn to read!" Jingrong suddenly said.
Sherry looked at the little guy and remembered how he had been clutching that folded book so tightly just now.
Yes, that memorial should be about the political dispute between the Han officials of the Northern and Southern factions.
After all, half of the impeachments were made by Han Chinese officials against Manchu ministers.
The other half consisted of Manchu officials impeaching Han officials.
She was chatting with Shunzhi when the little guy fell into deep thought, unaffected by external things.
Based on the experience of Sydney and the other worlds.
She knew it; this little guy probably hadn't drunk the Meng Po soup.
“Okay!” Sherry agreed.
She just wanted to see if he could recognize all the characters, and what he wanted to see...
Could it be a history book?!
Sherry found it quite interesting.
Upon returning to Kunning Palace, he immediately gave the instructions.
Sydney finds it all very confusing, as she has to read Manchu, Mongolian, and Chinese scripts.
She had accumulated knowledge over several centuries, and only later, when she wrote storybooks, did she truly remember it.
As a result, Jingrong instinctively picked up the Four Books and Five Classics...
Sherry: Hmm, confirmed, Han Chinese!
Sherry fed him cream cakes, ice cream, and egg tarts from later generations...
The little guy ate it all without batting an eye, not wanting to waste a single bit.
There was neither surprise nor unfamiliarity.
Sydney: What does that tell you?
"Is it delicious?" Sherry pinched his chubby little face.
"Delicious!" Jingrong nodded, wiping his hands clean.
"It's so delicious, Mom!" Jinghua's face was covered in cream, making her look like a little kitten.
"Have you eaten this before?" Sherry asked tentatively.
"No." Jingrong looked at Xueli with a puzzled expression.
"Mother, I want to eat again tomorrow!" Jinghua's sweet little voice rang out as Jingrong wiped her face and hands.
Sydney's assessment is complete: She looks just like her father!
"Oh dear, shall I tell you a story, Mother?" Shirley had another great idea.
"A scholar and a vixen?" Jingrong's face showed a hint of complexity.
"Yes, yes, I want to hear the story of the little white rabbit and the big bad wolf!" Jinghua hopped and skipped.
"Seriously, I can recite the Four Books and Five Classics off the top of my head, okay? Let me tell you some history!"
Sherry glanced at Jingrong every now and then.
Jingrong nodded calmly, "Mother, please speak. Your son is listening."
"Huh?!" Jinghua looked completely bewildered.
Sydney: See? That's the difference!
"Which dynasty would you like to hear about?" Sherry asked, a little excited.
She refused to believe she couldn't get information out of him.
A tiny baby!
“Let’s start from the origin!” Jingrong thought for a moment and replied, her chubby little face tilted up as she looked at Xueli.
"That started in prehistoric times. In primitive society, everyone wore grass skirts, was covered in fur, and learned to use fire and make tools! Then came the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors—"
Sherry suddenly remembered reading about a book that described a human-headed, snake-bodied creature, and couldn't help but shudder.
Then Jingrong's eyes were full of confusion.
Sherry was certain; this little guy had definitely never been to the modern world.
Otherwise, why would I have been stunned at the very beginning?!
Otherwise, is he truly illiterate?!
Sherry looked at the little guy with a puzzled expression, lost in thought.
She didn't notice Jingrong's secret smile as he looked at her.
"Who are the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors?!" Jingrong asked cooperatively, focusing on delivering a strong emotional impact.
"The 'Three Sovereigns' usually refer to Fuxi, Nuwa, and Shennong. Of course, there are other different interpretations, such as Suiren and Youchao. The 'Five Emperors' more clearly refer to the five ancient emperors: Huangdi, Zhuanxu, Diku, Yao, and Shun."
As Sherry spoke, she fell into deep thought again.
It seems that, according to ancient tombs, stone statues, murals, etc., Fuxi is depicted as having a human head and a snake's body.
Sherry thought about it and realized she wasn't worthy!
Moreover, Fuxi created the Eight Trigrams and invented divination.
What did she create?! Erotic novels and illustrations?! Oh dear, it's hard to say out loud...
Shirley didn't notice that the two little ones were looking at each other, their expressions shifting between confusion, amazement, and frustration.
"This is fun!" Jinghua exclaimed excitedly, mimicking Xue Li's funny face.
Sherry snapped out of her daze and saw her silly daughter and the calm and composed Jingrong.
Yes, that's the difference between a real child and a fake child! That's it.
"Mother, please continue!" Jingrong reminded helplessly as the little one lay on the table.
Jinghua followed her brother's example and climbed up.
"Then came the slave society, the Xia, Shang, and Western Zhou dynasties," Sherry said, unable to resist continuing to read.
"The Xia, Shang and Western Zhou dynasties, and the Eastern Zhou dynasty is divided into two periods; "
The Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, followed by the unification under the Qin and Han dynasties;
The Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu, and the two Jin dynasties;
The Northern and Southern Dynasties coexisted, followed by the Sui, Tang, and Five Dynasties;
From the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties onward—Holy crap, how come this mouth flows so smoothly?
Sherry glanced cautiously at Jingrong, then at Jinghua.
The little girl's tiny feet were moving around, playing by herself.
The chubby son remained calm, looking at Shirley with a puzzled expression.
As Shirley sipped her juice, she carefully observed the little guy, who was resting his chin on his hand with a blank expression.
Sherry felt both relieved and uneasy.
My feelings are a bit complicated!
"Are you tired?" The topic was changed quite quickly.
The little girl shook her head, wanting to go out and play with the puppy.
The chubby son readily agreed and went out with his sister.
Sherry secretly slapped herself in the mouth, thankfully not at Shunzhi.
Which book did you read this from?!
While Sherry was still thinking, she didn't notice the turbulent emotions in her chubby son's eyes when he turned around!
Jingrong sat next to his younger sister, cuddling and petting a small puppy.
But in my mind, I was just replaying the string of words my mother had just blurted out.
Based on his understanding of history, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is divided into two periods: the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
The Spring and Autumn Period was a time of constant conflict among the various states, while the Warring States Period saw the emergence of seven powerful states standing side by side.
Does the phrase "unifying the Qin and Han dynasties" mean that his Qin dynasty unified the entire country?
So, were the Han Dynasty... a development after the Qin Dynasty?
So, he is now thousands of years in the future?!
The little one was holding the puppy, eager to learn more.
Let's find out if he's still on this land!
Let's find out how his Qin Dynasty is developing!
But then I thought about it again, and it came down to the passage my mother had recited.
It seems that a dynasty only lasts for a few hundred years.
