After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

The emperor seemed to have tasted the sweetness, and often called Xiao Mochen to the Hanlong Palace to deal with memorials on the pretext of teaching him to learn government affairs.

As the prince, this is what Xiao Mochen should do, so he really couldn't refuse.

Xiao Mochen was very busy from morning to night, and he really didn't have time to run to Mingzhao Mansion.

However, he can still see Yan Qingqing often. After all, Yan Qingqing is now the prince's master.

Yan Qingqing was actually very helpless. She really felt that it was quite bitter for her to accept this job.

Although she didn't need to tell Xiao Mochen such things, as a teacher, she had to teach him some skills.

The teacher in the previous life had to prepare lessons carefully before class, not to mention that she was not a teacher and needed to prepare even more.

So Yan Qingqing put other things aside for the time being.

She handed over all business matters to Li Xiangan, and entrusted all matters concerning Mingzhao Mansion to Yuan Huiniang.

Li Xiangan and Yuan Huiniang actually still felt pressured.

The capital is no better than Canghe Town, it is their base camp. Mingzhao Mansion is not even their hometown. It is more difficult for the housekeeper to manage accounts, personal relationships, and various expenses.

Yan Qingqing looked at the two people who were a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "Sooner or later you have to be on your own, and you have been doing this for several years. Mom has great confidence in you.

Just let your hands and feet go and do it, your mother will take care of everything. "

Yan Qingqing just didn't have time to care about these things, but she was still in the capital. Li Xiangan and the others don't have to worry at all.

Yuan Huiniang and Li Xiangan were relieved after hearing this. Although it was something they were used to, Yan Qingqing would always give guidance behind any situation. Now that Yan Qingqing wanted to completely let them go and let them do it themselves, they were somewhat confused. Somewhat nervous.

After handing over the power to the two of them, Yan Qingqing began to prepare to teach Xiao Mochen.

The Crown Prince's Taifu and the Crown Prince's Taibao were already in place, but she, the Grand Master, had yet to show up in the East Palace.

If I don't go, I'm afraid someone in the court will criticize me again.

But Yan Qingqing was confused about what to teach Xiao Mochen in the first lesson.

Is it possible for her to teach Xiao Mochen the art of the emperor? The key is that she doesn't know how to do it.

Besides, everyone has their own opinions on the art of imperial power.

There is a combination of asserting power, skills, and momentum. Some advocate ruling by doing nothing, some advocate benevolent government, and some advocate the way of king and hegemony. It all depends on the character of the emperor in which period.

Yan Qingqing believed that Xiao Mochen had his own plans for the road of becoming an emperor, so she had better not point fingers.

In the end, Yan Qingqing thought so hard that she couldn't remember what she wanted to teach Xiao Mochen. Yan Qingqing simply gave it up and decided to act according to the situation.

Yan Qingqing arrived at the East Palace early the next day.

This was the first time she went to the East Palace to teach. It would not be a good idea to be late.

But Zhao An and Song Jianzhi arrived earlier than him. When they saw Yan Qingqing, they both stood up and saluted her.

Although the status of the three people in the East Palace is the same, the Third Division of the East Palace is after all an official of the first rank. Yan Qingqing is also a first-rank official. According to the rules, Yan Qingqing is indeed more respected than them.

Yan Qingqing didn't care much, and immediately returned the favor and said, "I never thought I would get to work with you two one day. I'm really honored."

Song Jianzhi smiled and said: "The Grand Master is really too modest. This should be said by the two of us."

Zhao An also echoed after hearing this.

They had seen Yan Qingqing's extraordinary abilities in Canghe Town, and from the bottom of their hearts they admired Yan Qingqing.

So the two of them were even a little bit happy after learning that Yan Qingqing was named Grand Master.

If you want to say who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince listens to the most in this world, it really has to be Yan Qingqing.

Just as the two of them were about to ask what Yan Qingqing was good at so that they could adjust their courses in time, Xiao Mochen came over.

There were two handsome young men who came with Xiao Mochen. One of them, Yan Qingqing, recognized him as Mrs. Pei's youngest son, Pei Yan.

The other young man, Yan Qingqing, has never been seen before.

But looking at the two walking behind Xiao Mochen, they should be Xiao Mochen's companion.

Xiao Mochen mentioned the matter of companion reading to Yan Qingqing. Xiao Mochen wanted Li Xiangkang to be his companion, but Yan Qingqing did not agree.

Unlike this kind of hereditary title, the Li family needs to take deep roots from generation to generation to support the lintel of their family.

As the prince's companion, the future emperor's close ministers will certainly be favored, but their development prospects are limited.

Li Xiangkang is a man with ideas and ambitions, and Yan Qingqing wants him to follow his own plan step by step.

Xiao Mochen also expressed his understanding. He heard that the youngest son of the Pei family and Mr. Sun of the De'an Hou Mansion were chosen in the end.

The two of them followed Xiao Mochen to Yan Qingqing and bowed respectfully: "The student has met the Grand Master."

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "No need to be polite. It's my first time to teach today, and I don't know what your basic skills are. Let Song Taibao and Zhao Taifu give you lectures first while I observe."

The three of them responded respectfully and started class.

Zhao An taught how to govern the country, Song Yanzhi taught riding and archery, and all three of them learned well.

When it was Yan Qingqing's turn to teach, Yan Qingqing smiled and said, "I'll teach you how to count."

Xiao Mochen became interested after hearing this. He knew that Yan Qingqing knew many and novel things. He had also seen the Li family's accounting methods, but he had never understood them.

Pei Yan has a lively temperament, and Mrs. Pei has a good relationship with Yan Qingqing, so she asked: "Master, this is the lowest among the six arts, why did you choose this one."

Yan Qingqing heard this and said seriously: "Since it is the Six Arts of a Gentleman, it proves that this is a required course. As the future pillars of the Yan Dynasty, you naturally need to develop in an all-round way.

If His Highness the Crown Prince puts you in an important position in the future, wouldn't it be a mistake if you can't even count them?

And one of them is not as useless as you think. "

Pei Yan was frightened when he saw Yan Qingqing's sullen face. This was someone the prince even addressed as aunt. He dared to go against Yan Qingqing. He really didn't want to do it. I'm afraid the prince's cousin will try to fix him later.

So he bent down and saluted Yan Qingqing and said: "Student is stupid, please ask the grand master to teach me."

Seeing his correct attitude, Yan Qingqing's face softened a bit before she said, "Then let me briefly talk about the benefits of counting.

First of all, numbers can exercise logical thinking and change the perspective and direction of thinking about problems.

After forming this kind of logical thinking, you can solve problems from different angles when you encounter them in life in the future.

Secondly, it enhances problem-solving skills.

They can be used in everything from small things in our lives to large things like siege of cities and territory and manufacturing of weapons. The so-called difference is the smallest difference, and the best reflection is the loss of thousands of miles. "

Not only Xiao Mochen and the others listened carefully to Yan Qingqing's words, but Song Jianzhi and Zhao An also listened with some fascination.

Because they are all top-notch talents, they focus on literature, and they only have a superficial understanding of mathematics.

They are also looking forward to learning different mathematics from Yan Qingqing.
