No, you really know how?
He frowned.
"Please don't be nervous."
Qiong smiled and raised her hand, quickly explaining:
"I am a businessman who travels all over the country. These etiquettes are what I use when I meet the monarchs of some small countries. Isn't that reasonable?"
Is it in this river?
It's in the river.
With the nobles, led by Rival, away to handle affairs, only Kyon, Cerudela, and Hathaway remained in the vast palace courtyard, the latter claiming to be Her Highness the Princess's guards.
After all, it would be unreasonable for a court tutor like Qiong Yijie to have a personal bodyguard.
Besides the three people, the only others were maids, servants, and guards.
The outer guards were mostly Rival's men, ensuring the three could not leave. The palace maids and guards inside were powerless and indifferent.
"Father, what should we do next?"
Privately, Krydela changed how she addressed Qiong.
"There is only one thing you need to do next: study and reach the standard of a qualified princess as quickly as possible."
Qiong raised a finger and gently touched the girl's forehead.
"Remember, knowledge itself is power, and it is also a weapon."
"I understand, I will try my best."
Krydella knew that if she displeased Rival, both she and her father would be in danger.
For the next period of time, Krydela studied royal etiquette and basic knowledge with Qiong day after day.
Rival kept a close watch on the three of them.
But Qiong is incredibly powerful; he has a hundred ways to avoid being monitored.
Let Jingwei deceive everyone's consciousness, then open the Anywhere Door and go home for dinner.
Alternatively, Jingwei and Ling could work together, using shadow soldiers as a vessel, to create clones of Qiong and Heather to temporarily take over.
Go home and take a bath, and while you're at it, feed Miss Changyeyue's second mouth.
Xia Die, Titi, March 7th, and Wilvi were all well aware of Qiong's ability to cause trouble, and they didn't care that he was away for long periods of time every day, after all, the princess was just a seven or eight-year-old child.
Who would be wary of children?
And so, a month passed.
Crydella's progress was nothing short of miraculous.
The heavy, corseted palace dress no longer made her stagger, and the elaborate court etiquette had been incorporated into her demeanor.
When giving public speeches, her voice is steady and loud, and although her eyes still have a hint of naivety, she is able to maintain the dignity of royalty.
Terrifying talent!
She was like a sponge, frantically absorbing all the knowledge that Qiong taught her, in order to protect herself and her father.
Rival did just as he had predicted.
“The princess is young, so I will act as regent and govern the affairs of the Hyperion Empire.”
He won over the people in the name of Krydela, seized royal power for himself, and became the regent.
Deep within the palace, in the secluded rear garden, isolated by high walls and guards, a rare moment of tranquility graced the scene on a quiet afternoon.
Sunlight filters through the grapevines, casting dappled shadows on the stone table engraved with ancient patterns.
"teacher!"
Kerudela, holding a stack of neatly written papyrus scrolls, ran to the stone table like a little sparrow presenting its treasure, her childish face showing a pride that she tried to hide but still revealed.
"Look at today's math test!"
She spread the test paper on the stone table, on which was a clear and accurate calculation process and a perfect score mark made by Qiong.
"Okay, let's stop with math for now. Take a break today, and I'll teach you a game."
Is it possible that other people's children really exist in this world?
They learned that fast!
"A break, great!"
They're just kids after all; they're naturally happy to hear about a holiday.
The next second, a trace of worry crept onto his brow.
"But... is this really okay?"
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Qiong smiled and put away the books and exam papers.
"Uh-huh!"
Krydella nodded her little head, eagerly saying:
What game is it?
Playing games with her teacher is her happiest time and the time she looks forward to the most.
"this."
Under Krydella's expectant gaze, Qiong took out a smooth, dark wooden board with grid lines drawn on it from under the stone table, as well as two boxes of chess pieces carved from obsidian and white jade respectively.
"Chariot, horse, king, elephant..."
"This is?"
Krydella curiously leaned her little head closer, her fingertips brushing against the cool chess piece.
"This is called chess."
Chess is also a type of chess.
Qiong set up the chessboard.
"I'll teach you the rules, this is the military..."
Qiong only explained it once, but Keludela's eyes lit up and she was eager to try it out.
"I understand, teacher, let's begin!"
"Since this is your first time playing, I'll give you a handicap of one chariot and one horse."
Qiong captured one of her own chariots and horses.
"Teacher, don't underestimate me!"
Having escaped the impoverished environment of not knowing where her next meal would come from, Cerrudra gradually revealed her true nature.
She puffed out her cheeks slightly in dissatisfaction, her blue eyes gleaming with pride.
"Otherwise, you'll lose terribly."
"Then I'll wait and see."
The game begins.
Krystalla quickly typed GG.
"If you're bad at it, just practice more."
"Is it open? I'm talking about spiritual intelligence."
While playing, Qiong is also under immense pressure.
They called it: cultivating Krishna's mindset.
Even Heather felt a little sorry for Krydella after watching this.
Wang clearly wanted to see the fish's frustrated expression, unable to vent its anger.
With a gentle bite to her lower lip, Keludela turned pressure into motivation.
Her gaze was immediately replaced by an even stronger focus.
She stared intently at the chessboard, her little mind racing, reviewing every move she had just made, pondering the ingenious tactics of restraint, blocking, checkmate, and double capture.
The concepts of chess pieces and chessboard began to emerge in that little mind.
PS:
Volume 1: Chapter 853 Sa, game Hasimeo
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed in the outside world and in the inside world.
Miracle Walker Little March continues to explore Onphalos, seemingly within reach of the Anywhere Door.
I'll try to explore the whole of Onfaros before my friends arrive, and mark all the places worth visiting.
She, the old lady, will lead everyone on a tour.
During the day, Changyeyue is inseparable from Sanyueqi, but at night she pulls Sanyueqi along to transform into Shiji.
Despite suffering crushing defeats and collapsing like mud each time, she still tries her best to reduce Qiong's resilience to prevent the thief from succeeding when she is not around.
Mrs. Xia Die's writing scope has expanded, and her collection of fairy tales is deeply loved by children.
Half of them came from starlit nights when she and Qiong lay side by side on the third-floor terrace, listening to him tell celestial fairy tales in his smiling voice.
Xia Die simply compiled the stories into a book so that more people could hear them.
The other half was made by Mrs. Xia Die herself.
The most famous fairy tale created by Xia Die is "The Little Monster and the Chimera".
Once upon a time, there was a monster carrying an ominous curse.
People avoided it like the plague, leaving it to huddle alone in the abandoned castle, letting the wind and snow bury everything.
Until one day, it met a gray Agumon, who took it to the Golden Castle.
There are many chimeras here, nine identical red candied apples, an invisible yet fragrant pink ice peach blossom, and a gurgling fish...
A series of heartwarming stories between the little monster and the chimera.
The Tirispites have made significant progress.
Half a century ago, the Saintess's handcrafted weapons were limited to pistols and flintlock guns.
Today, they can handcraft intricate Gatling guns and cannons.
They also developed a new type of portable bomb as a commonly used weapon.
It was named "Bouncing Bomb".
The name was chosen with full consideration of Qiong's suggestions.
Despite the saintesses' exceptional intelligence and the foundation of their native knowledge system, it was an impossible task for them to digest and absorb the complex technological tree from the alien civilization within a short period of one Kun year.
Once you enter the realm of advanced knowledge, the learning curve becomes significantly steeper.
Even so, Miss Titi gained a deep understanding of Qiong's foreign proverb, "Sharpening the axe won't delay the work of chopping wood."
Without Qiong, she would have embarked on her journey to chase the fire with sheer courage.
Let alone two and a half years, even if you work aimlessly for 10 years, you will probably still be wasting your time in aimless running around.
This solidified Titi's determination to graduate from Teacher Wilvi's tutelage and then embark on her pursuit of fire with even greater efficiency.
The Dome reached its conclusion through the various trials conducted by Eden.
The administrator behind Onpharos most likely failed to detect the variables that appeared out of nowhere inside.
This is only a preliminary conclusion.
The fact that it has not been discovered yet does not mean that the other party will never discover it in the future.
Eden still needs to remain vigilant and engage in further probing.
