When Zhao Chengji heard this, he said happily: "My little princess is so well-behaved and considerate."
Seeing Zhao Chengji coming back, Yu Lan stepped forward and greeted him intimately. "Master, I'm back. Are you cold? Come here and have a bowl of hot soup to go away the cold."
Zhao Chengji nodded, "Yeah, okay."
He walked to the soft couch next to him and sat down. The palace attendant served him hot soup. This was the old duck soup that Yu Lan had asked him to stew. A bowl of it would be very warm in winter.
Yu Lan walked to him and reached out to hug the child, "Give me the child."
But now she is clingy and only recognizes her father and won't let her hug him.
"No, I want my father to hold me."
Yu Lan rolled her eyes, such a clingy person.
"Come down quickly and let your father have a bowl of soup. I will hug you later."
Seeing his daughter clinging to him, Zhao Chengji smiled and waved, "It doesn't matter, I'll hold her."
While he was talking, he held his daughter with one hand and drank soup with one hand free. The weather was getting cold, and he had been sitting in the study for most of the day. Drinking some soup would indeed make him feel warmer and more comfortable.
"Father, what does it mean for an old cow to eat young grass?"
While drinking soup, Zhao Chengji suddenly choked when he heard his daughter say something like this.
This, who taught this, has led his little princess to bad things, even the old cow eating young grass comes out of her mouth.
"Ahem, Baozhu." Zhao Chengji laughed dryly, and then explained literally, "Actually, this means that there is an old cow eating the young grass that has just grown." Damn,
The more he explained, the more embarrassed he became, and his old face became a bit unbearable.
"Why? Why does it eat young grass instead of other grass?"
Zhao Chengji: "..."
Why, why else, is the old cow willing to do it?
To be honest, he really didn't want to say more on this topic.
"Baozhu, who taught you this?"
The little princess shook her short legs after hearing this.
"I heard what Aunt Huang said."
Good guy, I finally found the rightful owner. This careless guy taught his little princess all kinds of nonsense.
Listening to the emperor explaining to the little princess what old cows eat young grass, Yu Lan, who was standing aside, couldn't help laughing.
Seeing Yu Lan smiling, Zhao Chengji raised his eyes and looked at her with a deep look.
"My beloved, I think I am too old."
"My lord, I am wise, mighty, handsome, graceful, graceful, and absolutely young and handsome."
Although it was a bit exaggerated, what Yu Lan said was indeed true. Her family was indeed well-born, and her appearance and temperament were very well managed.
No wonder men also want to be coaxed. Look, even the emperor, the king of a country, also wants to be coaxed.
Hearing her mother and concubine praise her father, the little princess immediately clapped her hands and started to praise her too.
"My father's jade tree stands in the wind. It is of unparalleled splendor and beauty. It is loved by everyone, and all the flowers bloom when you see it."
"Yo, really?"
"Well, he is the most handsome father in the world."
"so good."
"Does your father like the treasure? Is the treasure your little sweetheart?"
"I like it. The orb is my father's pet and the apple of his eye."
Look, her father was so coaxed that he almost floated away. Watching the interaction between father and daughter, Yu Lan couldn't help laughing.
After sitting for a while, Zhao Chengji didn't see his son and asked, "Where is the emperor? Why don't you see anyone?"
Zhao Lingxiao is his only son, born to his beloved. Therefore, he will love his son no less. But his son must be stricter, otherwise he will not be able to take on the world in the future. His son is not just his
My son is also the future prince of the Northern Territory Kingdom, and the burden on his shoulders is very heavy.
"Your Majesty is asleep."
The boy was so tired that he lay down on the soft couch and fell asleep. Fearing that he would catch a cold, Yu Lan let Dongqing carry him to the side hall to sleep.
After the New Year, the two children will turn three years old, and they should put schooling and other things on the agenda. Thinking of this, Zhao Chengji said: "After the New Year, Huang'er and Baozhu will also turn three years old. I am going to choose a teacher.
What do you think of coming to the palace to teach these two siblings how to read?"
After hearing this, Yu Lan said: "Wouldn't it be too young to formally study at the age of three?"
Her two children are very smart. After they can talk, Yu Lan has subtly taught them to recognize many things. It is a kind of learning while playing, so that the children will not forget those things they know while playing.
For example, the flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard, or the small animals that need to be recognized, and some crops that need to be recognized, such as rice and corn. In fact, they are all very simple. After eating, watching and playing, you will naturally remember them.
I also recognized it.
Yu Lan was born in poverty, so she naturally didn't want her children to grow up without knowing the difference between grains and grains. She didn't even know how the rice she ate grew.
Huang'er and the others are very smart.
However, this formal study might be too young.
"No, when I was three years old, I could already memorize the Three-Character Sutra backwards."
Carrying it backwards...
Yu Lan: "..."
Is this the contempt of a king from a genius?
Before she could speak, she heard her child's father continue: "Your Majesty is not bad. He already knows that corn grows from the ground at such a young age. You have taught your child very well."
Yu Lan: "..."
Really, I didn't feel comforted at all.
"Just make your arrangements. By the way, later on, choose some companion readers for your children to read with them."
"You must choose a reading companion." After all, not everyone can accompany the prince to study.
The companions of princes and princesses are all children of ministers. Not only that, they must also have a clean family background and be well-respected by the emperor in order to receive such treatment...
At night, the wind was blowing loudly, and the snow was falling from the sky, mixed with a little rain, making the originally cold weather even colder.
In the bedroom, the candlelight flickered, and sparks popped out from time to time.
Behind the bed curtain, Yu Lan's petite body was nestled in the man's arms, her hands clinging to his shoulders. From time to time, she was called by her husband, master, and brother...
After the clouds and rain.
Yu Lan was very tired.
Just as she was getting ready to go to sleep, she heard someone next to her asking her a stupid question.
"Do you feel that I am getting old?"
Yu Lan: "..."
Her grandfather is not yet thirty, so how old is he? So, he is still thinking about old cows eating young grass.
"Think about when I was eighty, and you were almost ninety at that time. Doesn't this make you feel that we are not much different in age? Okay, don't think about it. You have to go to court tomorrow, so go to bed." Yu
Lan said, leaning closer to him, reaching out and hugging his waist, closing her eyes, and stopped talking.
Put it this way, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
Thinking of this, Zhao Chengji smiled faintly, put his arms around her waist, and closed his eyes.
The night is very quiet.
Outside the window, falling snow fell from the sky...
The New Year is approaching, and every household kills chickens and sheep to welcome the New Year.
