Chapter 287 Situ Yuan: I Can't Suffer Alone
Situ Yuan said righteously: "What are you thinking? How could I be such a person!"
Seeing his serious face, Yang Tao didn't seem to be lying, and he couldn't help feeling a little ashamed: How could he think of his cousin like that? It was really wrong.
Then he looked at the book in front of Situ Yuan and leaned over to take a look curiously: "Cousin, what book are you reading?"
Because he was still young, he always found the words in the book obscure and difficult to understand, and had no idea what it was talking about.
So he looked at Situ Yuan in surprise: "Cousin, do you understand?"
Situ Yuan naturally understood it, but he couldn't say that, after all, he was two years younger than Yang Tao.
So he lied: "I was just looking around."
Yang Tao had no doubts. He looked at the contents of the book again and found that he really couldn't understand it, so he asked, "Then why are you looking at this?"
Situ Yuan used the same excuse again: "I want to make a toy for Yingying."
Yang Tao's eyes widened in surprise: "You can also make toys?"
Situ Yuan said casually, "Not yet, but I will be able to do it after I finish reading these books."
Yang Tao's desire to win was instantly aroused: "Then I want to learn too! I want to make toys for Yingying too!"
He is the cousin, how could he be outdone by his younger cousin?
Situ Yuan, however, was not worried about being outdone by him and simply handed him a book: "Then go ahead and study."
Yang Tao curiously opened the book, then was stunned. He... he couldn't understand it! What should he do?
He secretly glanced at Situ Yuan, only to see that he was reading a book silently, looking very serious.
After struggling for a long while, he leaned over and whispered to Situ Yuan, "Cousin, you don't understand it either, do you?"
If he couldn't understand it, how could his cousin possibly understand it?
It must be pretending!
My cousin is so smart. He is two years younger than him, but he pretends to be so similar!
Situ Yuan: “…”
He endured it and decided not to bother with this silly boy Yang Tao.
In fact, he could memorize all the contents of the book and there was no need for anyone to copy it.
But if he did so, his photographic memory would be exposed.
Besides, he is too young now and should not be able to understand the contents of the book, so he can only wait for others to copy the book.
Who knew that Yang Tao would come looking for me?
This kid is the only little prince in the palace. Shouldn’t he attend classes seriously and study hard?
Concubine Jiang dotes on her child so much that she even reduces the silly boy's schoolwork and lets him run around everywhere.
Situ Yuan complained in his heart.
He thought about it and deliberately said to Yang Tao: "Although I don't understand it, I can memorize it. Can you do it, cousin?"
After saying that, he looked at Yang Tao with pretended anticipation.
Yang Tao felt that he definitely couldn't do it, but when he saw Situ Yuan's expectant eyes, he couldn't say the word "no".
So I bit the bullet and said, "If you can do it, I can certainly memorize it too!"
After saying that, he began to look at the book in front of him carefully, wanting to try to memorize it.
Unfortunately, after reading for a while, his pale face turned red - he didn't recognize many of the words in the book! What should he do?
Yang Tao looked at Situ Yuan again, but seeing Situ Yuan concentrating on reading seriously, he didn't feel comfortable disturbing him this time.
I could only bite the bullet and continue reading the book in front of me.
The more he looked at it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and soon he began to feel restless.
Just when his expression became more and more bitter and he was about to give up, Emperor Taihe came over.
He heard that the eldest princess brought Situ Yuan to the palace to look for books, and Yang Tao came over, so he wanted to come and see what was going on.
As a result, when he arrived, he saw Yang Tao twisting his body uncomfortably, while Situ Yuan next to him was buried in reading a book.
Emperor Taihe's face turned dark in an instant, and he felt that Yang Tao was really shameful compared to Situ Yuan.
So he walked over to the two of them and looked at the books in front of them curiously: "What are you reading?"
As soon as Yang Tao saw him, his eyes lit up immediately, like a drowning man who suddenly saw his savior, and he stood up in a flash.
"Father!"
Emperor Taihe had never been looked at like this by him before, and he couldn't help feeling flattered.
He pretended to be calm and picked up the book in Yang Tao's hand without changing his expression. Then he asked in surprise: "What are you looking at this?"
Yang Tao felt guilty instantly. He wanted to memorize the book, but unfortunately he couldn't understand it at all, nor could he memorize it. He even didn't recognize many of the words in the book.
How can I say it out loud now?
He couldn't help but look at Situ Yuan, his heart filled with confusion: his cousin was clearly reading very seriously, so why couldn't he concentrate? How on earth was his cousin pretending?
If he tells the truth, will his father think he is too stupid?
Yang Tao couldn't help but feel nervous at the thought of being disliked by Emperor Taihe.
After he moved into Huaqing Palace, his temperament had changed a lot, but the habits and personality he had developed over the years were obviously not so easy to completely change.
Fortunately, Situ Yuan noticed his nervousness immediately and helped to smooth things over: "Uncle, I wanted to make a toy for Yingying, but I don't know how, so I wanted to go to the palace to find some books to read.
My cousin saw me reading and started reading with me. He even said he wanted to memorize everything in the book. That's amazing! I've been reading for so long and I can't remember a single word.
These words made Yang Tao relax instantly.
He turned around in surprise: "Cousin, you can't remember it either? Then why are you still reading it so seriously?"
Situ Yuan said confidently, "I have to pretend, otherwise people will find out and secretly say I'm unlearned and incompetent. What if I don't?"
Yang Tao's eyes widened. "You're pretending so well! How did you do that? Can you teach me?"
Emperor Taihe originally thought it was funny, but when he heard what he said, his face instantly turned dark.
"Cough cough!"
He deliberately coughed twice to alert Yang Tao and Situ Yuan, and then looked at the two of them carefully several times.
Finally, he said, "Yuan'er is old enough, it's time for him to start learning. Now that you are no longer seriously injured, you can enter the palace and take classes with your cousin."
When Yang Tao heard this, he immediately hugged Situ Yuan excitedly: "Ahhh, that's great! Did you hear that, cousin? We can go to class together from now on!"
Situ Yuan felt completely hopeless: Why on earth did he have to enter the palace?
No, it’s all the fault of that stupid boy Yang Tao!
If this little fool hadn't suddenly come running to find him, he wouldn't have lured Emperor Taihe over and arranged for him to attend classes!
Situ Yuan didn't want to go to class at all.
But when he thought about what he was going to do next, he couldn't refuse.
He is too young now to reveal his knowledge directly, so he has to learn it again.
Forget it, just go to class.
However, he cannot be the only one to suffer.
Situ Yuan quickly came up with an idea: "Uncle, can I have a study partner?"
"Of course." Emperor Taihe smiled cheerfully, "Who do you want to be your study partner?"
Situ Yuan immediately recommended someone: "Yingying has an older brother who is eight years old. I want him to be my study partner."
