"Jiao'er, can you circulate your Eon Energy while doing chores?" Ye Ai Xia asked.
Ye Jiao nearly dropped the cloth that she held in her hand when she heard her mother's question. Her eyes blinked a few tis. "Mom, isn't that impossible?"
She required great concentration to pull Eon Energy to her body and core. If she had to do chores on top of absorbing them, she wouldn't be able to do the two of them well. It was simply too hard.
Ye Ai Xia chuckled. "There's soone you know that manage to do it."
"Who?"
"Who do you think?" Ye Ai Xia winked.
Ye Jiao bead. "Dad?"
"Yes."
"Dad is really aweso!"
Ye Ai Xia laughed. "He told that it was indeed possible to pull the Eon Energy while doing sothing else, but it's not directed to your core. All he does is just circulating Eon Energy to strengthen his body because he was too lazy."
"Dad is lazy?"
"Yes," Ye Ai Xia laughed. "There's a ti when he's so lazy that he chooses to train while doing chores. This way, he didn't have to specifically pick ti to train and could spend the ti to play with the others. The teachers are angry, but they couldn't do anything because he still progresses faster than most children here."
Ye Jiao followed after her mother and laughed too. "Is that before Dad form his core?"
"He had ford his core. It's when he's about to reach rank 1."
"Ah," Ye Jiao recalled that reaching the first rank required them to train their Eon Energy freely inside their body. It was no wonder that her father trained to do it while doing chores and others.
"Do you want to try?"
"Yes!"
As Ye Jiao continued to clean up the window, she tried to circulate the Eon Energy in her body. However, her coordination turned into a ss as she had to focus to two things. In the end, she took twice the ti she used to clean the window.
Ye Ai Xia shook her head. "Try to do it while sweeping the floor. It'll require less thinking."
"Ok, Mom."
With that, Ye Jiao did chores for the entire morning while training the circulation that Ye Ai Xia ntioned. Even though her movent was extrely awkward at tis, she continued to train the double practice to train her Eon Energy and did chores.
"It's afternoon, let's start our lesson today," Ye Ai Xia called the girl.
Ye Jiao jogged to the house. Her eyes scanned the book on the table curiously. "What are we going to study today, Mom?"
"I'll teach you geography, or to be exact, regarding Chen Kingdom," Ye Ai Xia replied. "What do you know regarding Chen Kingdom and its size."
"It's really large," Ye Jiao replied. "There are nurous cities and villages in this kingdom. The capital is the largest city in this kingdom. As for the terrain... um, there are a lot of varieties?"
"I can see that you don't know anything."
"Sorry, Mom," Ye Jiao scratched her head. She did learn geography but only the general. What she rembered was only the types of plant that grew in what season and the likes. As for the Chen Kingdom in specific, she was not too sure.
Ye Ai Xia took out a map and spread it on the table. "This area is Chen Kingdom. There are indeed a lot of different terrains, but Chen Kingdom is mostly covered in forests. This is why there are a lot of beasts around. The forests are their habitat."
"The shape looks like a chicken."
Pfft!
"Why are you thinking of that?"
Ye Jiao grinned. "Here, it looks like its head and down there look like the tail and feet."
Upon listening to Ye Jiao's explanation, Ye Ai Xia didn't know whether to laugh or not. It was true that the shape looked like chicken because of the newest expansion at the north, but should that be her first remark?
"Mom, Chen Kingdom is bordering two kingdoms?"
"Yes, at the east, there's Cao Kingdom while the west is Chi Kingdom," Ye Ai Xia pointed. "This map didn't give the detail area, but it should be around the sa size with Chen Kingdom."
"But without the chicken shape?"
"Yes... are you hungry?"
Ye Jiao tilted her head. "No, why Mom?"
"Because you keep on ntioning chicken," Ye Ai Xia giggled. "Anyway, at the northwest of Chen Kingdom, in the area near the chicken head, it's a mountain's range."
"Oh," Ye Jiao studied the map. The four kingdoms seed to face the sa mountain range because their shape at the northwest looked like a straight line with slight bumps here and there. "What's in that mountain range, Mom?"
"It's...." Ye Ai Xia wanted to answer, but she decided to not do it. It was her destination once they were unable to live in this place anymore. There was sothing in that place that would be able to protect the two of them. But it was only a plan.
Ye Jiao noticed that her mother seed strange. "Mom?"
"It's nothing," Ye Ai Xia coughed. "Now, let's move to another topic. What do you know regarding the division of power in Chen Kingdom?"
"There are three prominent families," Ye Jiao raised three of her fingers. "First is the Imperial family, Chen Family. Second is the military family, Wei Family. Third is scholarly family, Lu Family."
"You're correct, do you know the three of them?"
"I only know Wei Family."
Both mother and daughter smiled wryly. Ye Jiao only knew Wei Family because they were living here. It was easy for her to gain the information of the Wei Family.
"What do you know regarding the five children of Wei Shang?"
"Two of them co from the main wife while the other three cos from the concubines," Ye Jiao replied.
"How many concubines he has?"
"A lot."
"That's not number."
"I don't know the exact number."
The two of them continued their question and answer for a long ti.
