The little emperor also neatly transcribed an answer. Counting the time with his fingers, he felt that he still had half an hour to waste after finishing the writing, and felt that his decision today was really right.

"Okay, now it's your turn to do the math, I've read it." Chu Cairen gave up his abacus, "Have you learned everything just now? Is there anything you don't understand?"

"Hmph, I'll take a look at the second question." The little emperor was confident, and immediately started to calculate, "Look out!"

"Please."

A moment later, the little emperor put down his abacus and let out a long sigh.

——The eyes have learned, but the head has not learned, can it be regarded as learning?

After finally finishing the questions, the little emperor looked up at the clepsydra.

An hour just ran out.

The little emperor frowned, grabbed the draft booklet and ran, and ran to the door in one breath, then stopped and turned around to tell: "If someone asks..."

"Let's just say that you are here to see the dog!" At some point, Chu Cairen sent someone to bring the little black dog that he had raised before. The dog was quite intelligent, wagging its tail like a stick and barking a few times, probably as a way to see off the guests. .

The next day, the lecturer looked at the answers and nodded approvingly: "It is not easy to answer four questions correctly for such a difficult question. The other two questions are almost impossible, but the general idea is still correct."

After listening to the comments, the little emperor found that the three questions Chu Cairen had done were completely correct. It seemed that he was in a hurry, and he really met a famous doctor... But he still failed to ask a child to teach him how to do the questions. It feels really embarrassing to be a teacher!

For a moment, the little emperor's mood was both hot and cold, his heart went up and down, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh when facing the lecturer's admiration.

At noon, the little emperor left Shen Yanchuan to eat and chat with him as usual.At the end of the meal, Shen Yanchuan politely took out a paper bag from his arms and handed it over: "Jinsi Dangmei, remember to rinse your mouth after eating."

"Well, I will remember." After the little emperor replied reservedly, the corners of his mouth still curled up involuntarily, with a sweet and silly smile.

A golden tiger in exchange for a pack of snacks that Shen Yanchuan bought is worth it... no, it's a profit!

As a practical man, the little emperor immediately possessed the virtue of not being ashamed to ask questions, and began to diligently go in and out of Chu Cairen's palace to "watch the dog".

In order to prevent Shen Yanchuan from finding out, he specially asked Xiao Fuzi to prepare an abacus in advance, hand-copied the title of the original book and sent it to Chu Cairen's palace. At that time, he only needs to enter the harem in a low-key manner, and he doesn't have to worry about meeting other people.

He also specially told Hu Qian to make the secret guards who followed him pay attention, and if he saw Shen Yanchuan coming to the harem, he would notify him immediately.

However, unexpectedly, the first person who discovered the truth about his "watching the dog" was not Shen Yanchuan, but Concubine Tong.

It was very hot that day, and the room was a little stuffy. The door of Chu Cairen's palace was opened for ventilation, and only two people were sent to guard the door.

Inside the room, the little emperor was flicking the abacus, and Chu Cairen was sitting next to him, gnawing on a big white pear, and giving instructions vaguely: "No, I missed one!"

The little emperor looked at the abacus in a daze, and suddenly forgot what happened, and said with a white face: "...Which one did I dial just now? Where did my calculation go?"

Chu Cairen held a juicy pear in his mouth, swallowed it and was about to answer, but heard a silver bell ringing from the gate, accompanied by a female voice who spoke Chinese bluntly, unable to make out what he said, followed by The voice of the maid of the house saying that she wants to report.

Concubine Tong's status is higher than hers, so it really doesn't matter if she is notified or not, she can't make people wait, let alone prevent people from entering.

Therefore, regardless of the sticky pear juice on his hand, Chu Cairen jumped up and went to close the door: "Hurry up and put away the things!"

There were no palace people in the house, so the little emperor had no choice but to help clean it up together, hurriedly said: "Why did she come to you, you two still have contacts?"

"I don't know if it counts or not." Chu Cairen looked out through the crack of the door, "Occasionally, I would say a few words when I met, and I wanted to give something during the festival... Oh, I saw her flying a kite before, and then she saw her I was interested and sent me one."

After a lot of hiding and hiding, the door of the house finally opened, Chu Cairen went out and welcomed Concubine Tong into the house.

There was nothing in front of the little emperor, so he could only hold a cup and drink tea boredly, and asked at the same time, "Why are you here?"

"A few days ago, you said that flowers could be used to make some sachets, so I tried to make some." Concubine Tong asked the maid carrying a basket to come forward and took out a bunch of sachets from the basket. "Here are dried flowers." It is ground and made with various precious spices, each of which has a different taste, just pick the one you like."

Chu Cairen has a childlike heart, and after hearing a few polite words, he picked them up one by one.

Concubine Tong said a few words to Chu Cairen, and in a blink of an eye, she saw that the little emperor was still drinking tea. She put a cup of tea on her lips and sipped it for a long time, her eyes were straightened, and she asked, "Won't the emperor choose one?"

The little emperor came back to his senses: "Ah...no need, I already have one."

That was given to him by Shen Yanchuan.Sent quietly.He is also very fierce not to let him accept other people's things.Hey hey.

Concubine Tong looked at it for a moment: "Then can I take it again?"

The little emperor's eyes and brows were full of joy: "You girls, the more the better, I am a man, one is enough."

After he said this, Concubine Tong didn't ask further, just took out a plum red box from the basket: "Then try this?"

Inside the box lay a few snow-white and round pastries, shaped like glutinous rice balls, with a pink petal on the top, exquisite and beautiful: "It's honey fruit made of flowers, try it?"

The little emperor raised his hand, just about to take one, when he suddenly remembered Shen Yanchuan's claim that "everything has to be tested before it can be used".

I made a good promise at the time, so I shouldn't break my promise easily now.

So he shook his head and smiled shyly: "Forget it, I'm too full from lunch, it's better to be more restrained."

"Okay. Anyway, I'll stay here, you can take it if you want to eat." Concubine Tong said, then turned around and brought the box to Chu Cairen.Without further ado, Chu Cairen took one and put it in his mouth: "Well, it's delicious! My sister made it herself? The craftsmanship is really good."

Concubine Tong ate one herself, and said while chewing: "Fortunately, practice makes perfect. Originally, I wanted to make more, and each palace distributed a box, but in the end, several batches were steamed, and the remaining ingredients were only enough. Make these. If you like it, my sister will make some for you in the future."

It is always very easy for women to build friendship. After taking a sachet, eating snacks, and chatting for a while, Chu Cairen quickly forgot what he was going to do. When it comes to excitement, even the dog barks in to give Concubine Tong looks.

The pup was barking and wandering around the house. The little emperor couldn't stand it anymore, and he didn't want to blatantly drive people away. He was trying to give Chu Cairen a hint by winking, but just as his eyes met, he He smelled an ominous smell, and when he turned his head, he saw the dog raised its hind legs and peed on the heavy curtain hanging from the ground.

"Ah! My calculation is still to come!!"

All of a sudden, people inside and outside the house ran over, some grabbed the dog, some rescued the abacus and other things, and some wiped the ground.

However, the calculation paper was half wet in the end, and it could no longer be used and read.

The little emperor froze visibly to the naked eye—the painstaking effort I spent just now was paid by mistake after all!

Chu Cairen felt ashamed, and immediately apologized: "It's all my fault. It has been urinating frequently recently, and it can't listen to what it says... I'm sorry, I'm guilty, and I deserve death. Let me help you do the calculation again, okay?" ?”

Concubine Tong rubbed her hands next to her, panicked amidst the hesitation of not knowing the situation: "I... um... my concubine is here to help too? What's the point?"
