After Su Mo sent Su Ergou to the Imperial College, he went to the military camp.

He has a task today and has to go to the west gate to welcome the officials who returned from the Western Jin Dynasty.

After receiving the person, he escorted the officials into the palace.

The imperial palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty was further divided into the front court and the rear palace. The rear palace was the living place of Emperor Jingxuan and his concubines, and it was not easy for outsiders to enter.

The former dynasty was big, and the major government offices of the imperial court, such as the Military Aircraft Department, the Inspectorate, and the Sixth Ministry, were all located here.

Emperor Jingxuan met several returning officials in the imperial study, and Su Mo was also there.

Su Mo was a filial and respectful eldest grandson and eldest son at home, and a loyal courtier at court. Emperor Jingxuan valued him very much and asked him to listen.

In the past few years, the Western Jin Dynasty cultivated health and well-being, no longer went to war with other countries, and valued peace as the most important thing, and reduced and exempted taxes among the people, and rewarded farming. The life of the people was better, and more taxes were paid. .

In addition, the Western Jin Dynasty also mined several veins.

Emperor Jingxuan felt emotional.

Great Zhou was originally a rich and prosperous country, but the border relations were engulfed in war——

Wars cost the people and money, but without fighting, it is difficult to pacify the world.

After talking about heavy topics, the returning officials also talked about the customs of the Western Jin Dynasty.

"Women in the Western Jin Dynasty are good at books, and I met several private schools for women along the way."

"Oh?" Emperor Jingxuan felt very novel.

There is no shortage of talented women in the Great Zhou Dynasty, such as the daughter of the Leng family, or Qin Yanran from the Duke Huguo's mansion, they are all talented women who are famous in the capital.

It's just that they didn't go to a private school to study, but invited Mr. Xi to their home, or found some expert to come to learn from them.

I don't know if Emperor Jingxuan was so irritated by Wei Ting recently that he decided to run a "female private school" with his head getting hot.

It is said to be a private school, but it is actually more like a palace school. It is taught in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The main students are royal princesses, and the accompanying students are from clan princes and ministers' daughters.

Emperor Jingxuan looked at Su Mo: "Su Mo, what's the name of your cousin?"

...

Su Daya's name suddenly appeared on the roster.

"I?"

Su Xiaoxiao paused for a moment when she was chopping vegetables, then lifted the lid of the pot to look at the oily chicken soup, then put the lid back on, "Why should I go?"

"I'm also very puzzled." Su Mo sat in front of the stove, added a handful of firewood into the stove, and imitated Wei Ting's action to poke it with the tongs.

Be a man with a solid heart, but burn a fire with a hollow heart.

He remembered it last time.

It stands to reason that Su Xiaoxiao grew up in the countryside, and only those who are familiar with her know whether she has real skills. In the eyes of ordinary people, she does not know a single word and cannot be on the stage. Emperor Jingxuan asked her to read to the princess. Making things difficult for her, or making things difficult for the princess?

But after thinking about it, Emperor Jingxuan would not have trouble with a little girl.

Then, there are only two possibilities.

One is to go through a cutscene to show his deep love for Qin Canglan. Emperor Jingxuan didn't care whether he was selected or not.

Second, Emperor Jingxuan did not give up on Qin Canglan's lineage, he made two preparations.

The military power of the Qin family must return to the royal family no matter what.

If a month later, Qin Jiang wins and Qin Yanran marries into the royal family, everyone will be happy.

But in case Su Cheng wins, it would be a good thing for Su Cheng's daughter to marry the Third Highness with military power.

Su Xiaoxiao: "Isn't that right, even those who have been married? Are people in your royal family so picky?"

Su Mo pondered: "Emperor Taizu's empress is a woman from the people."

Su Xiaoxiao suddenly realized: "It turned out to be a precedent."

Su Mo paused, and then said: "The above is just my personal guess, and it may not be accurate. If you don't want to go, I will try to push it for you."

After Su Xiaoxiao finished cutting the garlic sprouts, she said calmly, "No need, I'll go."

...

At noon, the three little ones finished their first rhythm lesson in their lives.

The three said goodbye to Ling Yun and the others very politely.

"goodbye teacher!"

"Brother Deng An, goodbye!"

"Grandma Zhou, goodbye!"

Mrs. Zhou is the cook in the yard.

The three of them rattled to the door, poked their heads out and took a look, and they really saw Su Xiaoxiao waiting outside the door.

The three of them were so happy that they flew up and rushed towards Su Xiaoxiao in unison.

"mother!"

The three called mother.

Su Xiaoxiao touched her little heads one by one and asked, "Did you enjoy studying today?"

The three said in unison: "Happy!"

This is true, and the three of them had a pleasant morning.

In comparison, Ling Yun was very unhappy.

When Du Hu was alone, he was very quiet, and he could sit obediently on the cushion and listen to him playing the piano for half an hour without getting tired of it.

As soon as the two younger brothers came, Duhu's painting style instantly changed.

The three of them played wildly, Ling Yun did nothing all morning and went to catch the little apprentice.

After finally holding down the three little apprentices, he taught him a fingering technique.

As soon as Xiaohu flicked, his blood rushed straight to Lingyun's Tianling Gai!

Damn!

You still go to make trouble!

After half a day, Ling Yun was completely crippled.

Teacher Zhang Qin had just finished class, when he came to Ling Yun's side, he saw Ling Yun sitting cross-legged at the door, with empty eyes, disheveled clothes, hair bun scattered, and a look of lovelessness.

Zhang Qinshi: "Uh... have you been ruined by someone?"

Ling Yun was dumbfounded and did not speak.

"It's broken, let the three children play badly..." Master Zhang Qin shook his head, bowed and began to clean up the things on the ground.

Suddenly, Ling Yun spoke: "I'm hungry."

Zhang Qinshi was startled, and suspected that he had heard it wrong: "What did you... just say?"

Ling Yun was not too sure.

He looked down at his stomach, felt it carefully, and said, "I seem to be... hungry."

Ling Yun couldn't eat normally, but when it was meal time, he would force himself to stuff a few mouthfuls.

He didn't know what it was like to be hungry.

Even eating the dim sum sent by Su Xiaoxiao is not because of hunger, but because he can eat it and won't spit out so much.

Su Ergou also spent a happy and fulfilling day in the Imperial College.

Su Qi and Su Yu are also studying in the Guozijian, and they are not in the same class as him.

At first, the two were worried that he would be uncomfortable.

After class, I went to Su Ergou's class.

Good guy, Su Ergou didn't treat himself as an outsider.

He is old and at ease.

Sitting in the seat, he leisurely ate the snacks brought by Su Xiaoxiao.

The souffle is creamy and fragrant, oily and soft, and it is so crispy that it falls off when you bite it down.

The classmates in the class are almost starving him to death——

A classmate swallowed his saliva, mustered up the courage and patted him on the shoulder.

"Where did you buy your snacks?"

"Oh, my sister made it, one for 100 Wen and three for 200 Wen. How many do you want? Order today and deliver tomorrow. Quantity is limited, first come first served!"

The corners of the Su Qi brothers' mouths twitched.

Co-author, you are not here for class, but for business at the Imperial College!

On the first day of school, Su Ergou successfully received an order of ten taels of silver for his family.

Reading is great.

Su Ergou likes to study!
