Then let me teach you how to read, okay?

The girl on the window sill seemed to have found a new pleasure, looking at Qin Yao expectantly.

Dou'er, who was waiting in the room, looked over in surprise.

Seeing Qin Yao actually walking in, Aunt Qiao frowned and felt something was wrong, Miss, is this not good?

Miss Ding just looks innocent, but she is not stupid. She is the master, and Aunt Qiao has no right to interfere with her decision.

He immediately pouted and said to Aunt Qiao like a child: It's so boring for me to study alone. Usually when I ask you and Dou'er to study, you scream for mercy. Today I just want to be a teacher. It's rare for someone to be willing to be a student. Don't worry about it. Me, otherwise I wouldn’t be happy!”

Aunt Qiao hurriedly lowered her head and said respectfully: I don't dare.

Just back off if you don't dare. Miss Ding snorted, with a coquettish look on her face.

Aunt Qiao asked Dou'er to serve the good lady and left.

Miss Ding enthusiastically pointed to the stool opposite the desk and asked Qin Yao to sit down. Then she picked up the book and asked Qin Yao if she wanted to read it.

Okay. Qin Yao smiled and reached out to take it.

The bookshelf behind Miss Ding is full of books, ranging from enlightenment picture books to miscellaneous travel notes on the Four Books and Five Classics.

If she hadn't called him in, Qin Yao wouldn't have known there were so many books in her room.

If you want to understand a new world, books are the most convenient way. Qin Yao knows that such opportunities are rare, so what about being a student?

In this era of knowledge monopoly, if she had not come to work as a bodyguard in the Ding family, she might not have had access to books at all.

There is a bookstore in Kaiyang County, but only students enrolled in the academy and those bachelors with honors can enter.

Therefore, just copying books can enable a poor student to support himself.

But even if the books are copied, ordinary people still cannot afford them.

Qin Yao had been to the county town twice before, but she just stood at the door of the bookstore and looked at it. A Three-Character Book of Enlightenment sold for eight coins. Who would be willing to give it up?

Maybe children like to play role-playing games.

Because teaching Qin Yao was so rewarding, Ms. Ding fell in love with being a teacher.

Qin Yao already had the foundation of the original owner. She knew all the commonly used words. With her own knowledge reserve, the Book of Songs that Miss Ding took out was not difficult for her at all.

After two days of class, I finished reading all 300 poems in the Book of Songs.

Miss Ding was very excited and felt that she had taught a genius.

On this day, one of them was sitting in the room having an elegant lunch, and the other was sitting on a small stool at the door, holding a sea bowl and gulping down the rice.

Miss Ding heard the movement coming from the door and was inexplicably attracted.

Thinking that her father and brother were not at home, it didn't matter even if she occasionally violated her etiquette. She didn't look at Aunt Qiao's downcast face, and walked out with her own blue and white porcelain bowl of rice.

Dou'er put down an embroidery stool next to Qin Yao, and Miss Ding sat down.

The big one and the little one looked at each other, smiled at each other, and ate together while looking at the blue sky above their heads.

After lunch, Miss Ding asked expectantly: Ms. Qin, what book do you want to read today?

Qin Yao pointed to the bookshelf in the room. Miss Ding generously led her in and let her choose.

Qin Yao stood in front of the bookshelf and looked around. In addition to the Four Books and Five Classics that she already knew, she wanted to read the rest of the miscellaneous travel notes.

But there was no rush, there was still time, so Qin Yao chose a novel that was somewhat similar to a fanfiction book called The Secret History of the Harem.

The book is still very new, the cover has no wrinkles at all, and it is placed in the corner of the bookshelf.

Seeing Qin Yao pull out the book, Miss Ding exclaimed Ah! and her first reaction was to rush into the living room to see if Aunt Qiao was there.

He was relieved when he saw no one. Dou'er couldn't read, so there was no need to worry.

Why did you choose this one?

Miss Ding waved her hand and signaled Qin Yao to come to the window. She kept staring at the door, looking guilty of being a thief, and glared at Qin Yao with a bit of shame.

Qin Yao looked at the title of the book and asked in a low voice: Forbidden book?

Miss Ding looked unhappy, but she didn’t let Qin Yao put it back because she wanted to see it too.

I asked my brother to secretly buy it for me. I like to read unofficial histories, but I don't dare to let my father know. He will be furious if he knows!

He would also say, how could a girl look at such filthy things? It was an insult to the family tradition, which was very serious.

Qin Yao hissed and fooled the child, Only you and I know this. God knows and earth knows. No third person will know.

No, it's the fourth person. Miss Ding corrected in a low voice, Brother also knows.

The two of them looked at each other. Miss Ding's eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement. Seeing that Qin Yao hadn't turned the page yet, she couldn't help but urge: Read it first, and tell me after you read it.

If there's something you can't see, don't say it.

Seeing her wanting to read but being scared, Qin Yao wanted to laugh a little, wondering in her heart, could it be that this book still has colors?

Gee, I’m a little excited just thinking about it.

Qin Yao opened the page with a normal expression. Before reading two lines, Miss Ding asked:

What are you writing? Does it look good?

Miss, I just started watching. Qin Yao helplessly motioned to her not to worry and to wait.

Okay, then I'll go out to look for the wind. You can read it first and tell me after you finish it. Miss Ding ordered.

Qin Yao nodded, this is a bit too courageous, it's just a book, what can it do?

There really is something!

But it's not the romantic history of a concubine and the emperor, but a serious style of writing.

Pseudonyms are used in the story in the book, but anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that it is about the entrepreneurial history of the couple who are the current emperor and empress.

Unlike the common husbands and wives who follow each other, the queen in this book is a brave and resourceful woman.

On the way to their fortunes, all the highlight moments happened to the Queen.

At the beginning of his fortune, local princes revolted one after another. In the troubled times, the empress, who was still a noble girl at the time, rescued the emperor who was just a concubine of a declining family. She gave money, food and horses to help the concubine seize the position of head of the family.

After that, the two families got married and joined forces to become the overlord of one side.

The emperor, who became the patriarch of the clan at that time, was very satisfied with this achievement and began to live a luxurious life of aristocrats and rich people.

It was the Empress who came forward in person, put the power map of various princes in front of the emperor, analyzed the current situation for three days and three nights, and drew a big pie for the emperor. Only then could the next steps be taken to regain the mountains and rivers and restore peace to the people.

After that, the Empress personally took over as the commander-in-chief and led an army of 50,000 people from the North to the Central Plains mansion, sweeping across the old capital and winning half of the empire for the Emperor, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent victory of the Sheng Kingdom.

When reading this part of the novel, Qin Yao felt like a queen and she was about to become the king herself.

However, the situation changed. The Queen Empress, who had already captured the old capital, did not strike further while the iron was hot.

The world's prejudice against women is deeply rooted, and the emperor's staff are afraid that the mistress will seize power. Therefore, the emperor was half forced and half encouraged to establish himself as king first.

The author in the book feels sorry for this. Fortunately, the young couple had a deep relationship and the emperor and empress were loving. After the emperor became king, he did not take back the empress's military power, maintaining a delicate balance.

After that, it was a happy ending with the couple working together to regain the lost territory and successfully establish a prosperous country.

At the end of the book, the division of power between the emperor and the empress is mentioned. The princess wants to be the crown princess and competes with her brothers for power. It is not known who will win the crown princeship in the end.
