Traveling through time and space, being replaced by a bride, happily married into a marquis's m

In the courtyard of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, the morning light was just breaking. In the silence, the only sounds were the cheerful chirping of birds and the occasional sound of falling leaves.

Lu Yundi stood in the courtyard, wearing a simple green silk skirt, the hem of which brushed the ground lightly, and a jade hairpin in her hair, looking both dignified and demure. She slowly stretched out her arms and began a set of circular Tai Chi.

"Madam, you are truly a master at Tai Chi. Each time is smoother than the last." Xiang Zhu praised softly, with sincere respect in his eyes.

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "The way of Tai Chi emphasizes both internal and external cultivation, and a calm mind like water, so that one can achieve the state of unity with nature."

As she spoke, her gestures were as smooth as flowing water, and every movement was just right, as if it could perfectly blend with every air current between heaven and earth. Xiang Zhu looked at Lu Yundi and couldn't help but be mesmerized.

She tiptoed behind Lu Yundi and reported in a low voice: "Madam, Master Ji Yunlin has come a long time ago and has gone to the South Study. As for the eldest master, he seems not to have arrived yet."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly and sighed inwardly.

After practicing Tai Chi, Lu Yundi went to the South Study.

Ji Yunlin was waiting for her there. He looked at Lu Yundi with admiration in his eyes: "Madam, your Tai Chi is getting better and better."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, sat opposite Ji Yunlin, and began to talk about family matters.

Lu Yundi nodded gently, without pausing for a moment, as if Xiang Zhu's voice had not disturbed her fusion with nature. She stood still, panting slightly, and turned her eyes to Xiang Zhu gently: "Got it, go get ready first, I'll be there later."

Xiang Zhu took the order and left, while Lu Yundi slowly walked towards Yan Canglan's study. She walked briskly, but she couldn't help but think of the conversation she had with Yan Shuqin last night.

The slightly raised corners of Yan Shuqin's mouth seemed to contain endless warmth and expectation.

Walking into the study, Ji Yunlin was sitting at the desk, holding a brush in his hand, and seemed to be correcting Yan Canglan's article. He looked up and saw Lu Yundi, a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes, and then he returned to calmness.

"Madam is here. I have been waiting for you to discuss the eldest son's studies." Ji Yunlin's voice was gentle and full of bookish air.

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, walked to the table and sat down: "Master Ji, how is the eldest son's academic progress?"

Ji Yunlin put down the pen in his hand and sighed softly: "The eldest son is very smart, but his character is too stubborn and he is not willing to study hard. He didn't seem to fully absorb yesterday's homework."

Lu Yundi frowned slightly. She knew Yan Canglan's character. The child had been lively and active since childhood, and his interest in books was far less than that in swords, knives, and riding and archery.

She pondered for a moment, then said to Ji Yunlin: "Master Ji, can you try to teach the eldest master in a more vivid and interesting way? Maybe it can arouse his interest."

Ji Yunlin's eyes gleamed, and he nodded, "Madam is right. Yunlin has also been thinking about this issue. Why don't we try to incorporate some classic stories into the teaching, so that the eldest master can learn the truth from the stories."

Lu Yundi's eyes flashed with approval. She knew that Ji Yunlin was a talented educator and his proposal was worth a try. She stood up and said to Ji Yunlin, "Master Ji, please take care of it. I will personally supervise the eldest son's studies and hope that he can become a talent soon."

Ji Yunlin stood up and bowed to Lu Yundi: "Madam, rest assured, Yunlin will do his best."

Lu Yundi returned to her room, still thinking about how to better guide Yan Canglan. As a mother, she needed more patience and wisdom.

In the afternoon, the sun shone through the window lattice into the corner of the study, and Yan Canglan finally appeared in the study. He was wearing a simple martial arts uniform, and his spirits were high, but there was a hint of mischief in his eyes.

"Mother, I'm here." There was a hint of playfulness in Yan Canglan's voice.

Lu Yundi looked at him with a smile, her eyes full of maternal love: "Canglan, today we are starting a new way of learning. Master Ji has prepared an interesting story, you must listen carefully."

A hint of curiosity flashed in Yan Canglan's eyes. He sat down next to Ji Yunlin and began to listen to the teacher telling the ancient story about wisdom and courage.

Lu Yundi was observing him quietly from the side, hoping that this method could truly touch Yan Canglan's heart.

Time passed quietly, and Yan Canglan's expression gradually changed from indifferent at first to focused.

Lu Yundi looked at his son's serious expression and felt a warm feeling in his heart.

At dusk, Yan Canglan left the study. He turned to Lu Yundi and said, "Mother, today's story is very interesting. I understand the importance of wisdom and courage. Tomorrow, I will come to study again."

Lu Yundi smiled and nodded, feeling relieved. This was just the beginning, but at least they had taken the first step in the right direction.

At night, the moonlight in the courtyard was as bright as water, and Lu Yundi found Yan Shuqin.

……

Without waiting for Lu Yundi to speak, Yan Shuqin asked coldly, "Why is my brother angry?"

The maids in Yan Canglan's room said tremblingly: "Nanny Zhou is alone in the room serving the young master and won't let us in. We don't know what happened inside."

Lu Yundi frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said: "I heard that when the young master was reading the Book of Changes yesterday, he suddenly encountered an incomprehensible problem. Perhaps it was because of this reason."

Yan Shuqin frowned upon hearing this and said dissatisfiedly, "That's not a reason to lose your temper. Isn't he usually the best at self-regulation?"

Lu Yundi sighed softly and said, "Perhaps the eldest young master has been in a bad mood recently, coupled with the pressure of studying, so this is the case."

Yan Shuqin was silent for a moment, then suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go see my brother."

Lu Yundi hurriedly said, "I'll go with you."

The two of them arrived outside Yan Canglan's room. Nanny Zhou saw them and hurried over to greet them, saying, "Miss, the eldest young master..."

Yan Shuqin glanced at her coldly and said, "Nanny, what happened to my brother?"

Nanny Zhou hesitated for a moment and said, "The eldest young master, he lost his temper in his room and threw all the books on the floor."

Yan Shuqin frowned and said, "I'll go see him."

She pushed open the door and saw Yan Canglan sitting at the table with a gloomy face. The books on the table were indeed thrown to the ground.

Yan Shuqin walked into the room, patted Yan Canglan's shoulder gently, and said, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Yan Canglan raised his head and saw that it was Yan Shuqin. He smiled and said, "It's okay. I just encountered some difficulties in my studies and I'm not in a good mood."

Yan Shuqin couldn't help but frowned and said, "Studying is important, but health is more important. It's not good for your health to lose your temper like this."

Yan Canglan smiled and said, "I understand, sister, don't worry."

Yan Shuqin added: "I heard that you have been reading the Book of Changes recently. Have you encountered any difficulties? Perhaps I can help you."
