Su He comforted Hao Tiantian and returned to her room. She decided to write a letter to Zhou and Wang Fugui immediately.

Miaomiao asked slyly at the door.

"Are you busy, sis?"

Su He rolled his eyes at his sister and said, "If you have to fart, just fart."

Miaomiao ran in angrily, sat on the kang, and questioned her sister.

"I heard what Sister said just now. Sister, why do you support Tiantian going out to sea, but you won't allow me to go out when I want to?"

Su He looked at his sister with contempt.

"Don't you know your own weight? In terms of knowledge, you are not even one-tenth as good as Tiantian. And you're going out to sea. If you keep eating, you'll have trouble getting on the bed."

Miaomiao was almost mad with anger. She couldn't believe her sister would look at her like that.

"What's wrong? Are you still not convinced? Let me ask you, how many words do you remember in Injiji? How do you say ship? How do you say go to sea? Introduce yourself in Injiji."

Miaomiao lowered her head guiltily, "Those were things I learned three years ago, who still remembers them."

"Then go ask Tiantian if she knows how to do it."

Miaomiao pouted and asked frustratedly.

"Sister, looking at me like this is useless. You and your brother are both so powerful."

Su He shook his head. "Everyone has their own strengths. If you compare other people's strengths with your own weaknesses, you will only make yourself uncomfortable."

"So what are my strengths?"

Miaomiao chased after her sister and asked.

"You're so shameless. You're so unskilled yet so confident."

In the end, Miaomiao was still angered and left by her own sister.

"Brother-in-law! Come with me to buy some snacks."

When Su He heard this, he immediately shouted loudly.

"Don't give her any money. She has her own."

"understood."

Liu Bai's voice came in with a hint of laughter.

Su He then felt relieved and continued writing the letter.

Three days later, Tiantian went to the bookstore again.

"I promise"

The words were incoherent, but the person on the other end understood them.

Xiao Qi stood up excitedly, "Tiantian, I will go to the palace to find my father immediately."

"Wait, I have a request."

Xiao Qi looked at Tian Tian seriously, "You say."

"If you have a new love, or if the elders insist on giving you a maid, let's part ways in peace."

"No, my mother was born a slave and died early. I am the least prominent among my brothers, so no one would bother with this idea. I will accompany you wherever you want to go in the future. I will listen to you."

Tiantian nodded gently, "Okay."

For the first time, Xiaoqi left the bookstore before Tiantian. He rode his horse as fast as he could, entered the palace and ran madly towards the Yangxin Palace.

Chen Dou was reviewing memorials when Little Li came in to report.

"Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is here."

Chen Dou raised his head in surprise, "Let him in."

"Father, I want to get married."

Chen Dou looked at the seventh brother, who had been silent and silent since childhood and seemed like a little transparent.

"Which family is the girl from?"

"She is Su Che's niece, her name is Wang Tian. We have known each other for five years. Father, I don't want anything but a ship."

"Is it because Wang Tian wants to go out to sea that you want a boat?"

"No, no, I also want to go out to sea. We both have the same idea."

Chen Dou glanced at his son and didn't believe it at all. He confirmed it expressionlessly.

"Do you really want to go to sea?"

"Yes, Tiantian and I have already discussed it. We have made a lot of preparations. Dad, just agree with it."

Xiao Qi looked at his father pleadingly, "We are very happy together. Tiantian doesn't want anything. The boat is what I wanted."

Chen Dou's heart softened when he saw his son like this, but he couldn't agree so rashly.

"Bring her to see me tomorrow. Let's talk about it after I meet the person."

Xiao Qi wanted to persuade him again, but Chen Dou had already lowered his head and continued to write letters.

Xiao Qi had no choice but to leave in disappointment.

After walking out of the Yangxin Palace, he looked in the direction of Jingyang Palace and decided to give it another try.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Zhiling looked at his grandson beside him and said in surprise.

"You mean Su Hehua's niece?"

"Yes, her name is Wang Tian, ​​she is 20 years old this year, one year older than me, and we have been together for five years, Royal Grandmother, I want to be with her forever. My grandson has no future, and I don't have any extravagant expectations. I just want to be with the girl I like. Royal Grandmother, please help me speak well of her in front of the emperor. I just want a ship, and nothing else."

Xiao Qi knelt on the ground, grabbed Chen Zhiling's hand and begged.

"Grandson is serious. We have already discussed going out to sea."

Chen Zhiling didn't mind her grandson finding a commoner. This girl was Su Hehua's niece, so she thought it was worth considering. If she could give birth to a great-grandson who could be half as smart as Su Hehua, it would be a great deal.

What's more, Xiao Qi was right, he was indeed not among the candidates to inherit the throne.

But not everyone can be the prince's consort.

"Bring this girl to me tomorrow. If I can get her through this test, I will go and talk to your father."

Xiao Qi was overjoyed, and realized that it was the right decision to come to the Empress Dowager for help.

"Thank you, grandma."

Xiao Qi kowtowed respectfully to Chen Zhiling, then left in a hurry. He still had to go out of the palace to inform Tiantian and ask her to be prepared.

Chen Zhiling was still sitting there, disturbed by Xiaoqi's word "Grandma". The child had never called her grandma before.

It's so happy.

Tiantian looked at Xiaoqi at the gate and was very surprised.

"What's going on here?"

"Tiantian, I have told my father and grandmother, they want to meet you."

Tiantian looked at the somewhat nervous Xiaoqi and nodded calmly.

"Okay, I can go anytime."

"Then I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. Chen Zheng, is that okay?"

Xiao Qi smiled brightly and then carefully discussed the time.

"Okay, then Chen Zheng."

Tiantian nodded in agreement, and the two smiled at each other.

"Go back, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Xiao Qi said goodbye obediently, got on the horse happily and left.

Tiantian closed the door and looked at her family in the yard.

"Aunt Hehua, I'm going to the palace tomorrow."

Su He was not surprised at all, she had known for a long time that Tiantian knew the Seventh Prince.

"I'll go with you."

Tiantian shook her head. She didn’t need anyone to accompany her. Some things had to be handled by herself.

"If they don't like me, I won't force them. I'll go out to sea on my own."

Su He didn't try to persuade her, but just suggested that Tiantian learn some rules.

"It's a good opportunity to let Madam Sun teach you how to pay respects. You have always been smart, and one night will be enough."

Nanny Sun was originally in the kitchen. When she heard Hehua calling her, she came out.

"Tiantian, let's go to the house to study."

"it is good."

Miaomiao waited until Tiantian left before asking her sister in shock.

"Father? Enter the palace? Sister, Tiantian is going to be the prince's consort?"

Su He whispered to her sister, "It's not certain yet. Let's wait until Tiantian enters the palace tomorrow. Don't shout too loudly."

Miaomiao covered her mouth, and the little man in her heart kept screaming.

Oh my goodness, she has material again for her third book.

The next morning, Tiantian rode the little red horse and entered the palace with Xiaoqi.

"Grandmother, this is Tiantian."

Tiantian knelt down and greeted him.

"Min Wang Tian pays respects to the Queen Mother."

"Get up and come closer so I can see."

Tiantian stood up with her head down and walked closer. Her chin was lifted up by a pair of hands and she raised her head.

"You are a beautiful lady. I heard that you teach arithmetic in the academy. Did Lotus teach you arithmetic?"

"To answer the Queen Mother, it was Aunt Lotus who taught me. All the children in our village learn arithmetic. Those with average qualifications can just manage accounts, and those with talent will be carefully trained by Aunt Lotus."

Chen Zhiling nodded slightly, "So you are talented?"

"I learn better than most people. Aunt Lotus said that I have learned 90% of her skills."

"Oh, then you are just a little worse than Lotus."

Tiantian glanced at the Queen Mother in front of her and answered cautiously.

"My aunt loves arithmetic and studies it all day long. I can't compare to her in this aspect. But besides arithmetic, I also like reading books, such as The Analects of Confucius and The Spring and Autumn Annals."

"Oh? How do you understand the phrase 'as if cutting and polishing, as if polishing and grinding' in the Analects?"

"To answer the Queen Mother, this originally refers to the careful carving and polishing of jade, and it is used to describe people..."

"In the Spring and Autumn Annals..."

"..."

Chen Zhiling smiled, obviously satisfied with Tiantian's response.

"Grandmother, Tiantian is not only good at arithmetic, she also knows many languages. She taught me how to speak English so well."

Chen Zhiling glanced at Xiaoqi with a smile, and seeing Xiaoqi's nervous look, she didn't make it difficult for him.

"Really? What languages ​​do you know?"

"Yingji, Dali, Wa, and Goose."

"***&%&**&&……* (Dahlia)"

Tiantian glanced at the Queen Mother, "&*&%&%¥¥%"

"%&%&¥@¥%%&%& (English)"

"........."

Xiao Qi looked at the Royal Grandmother in surprise. He had no idea that the Royal Grandmother was so powerful.
