The little buns, who were used to getting up early, were already waiting in the hall. They noticed that their daddy seemed to be smiling a little too brightly. Ling Wen walked up strangely, his big round eyes accurately scanning the booklet he was holding in his hand.
“Nothing eat breakfast, your father is still going to attend the morning court later, we also have a lot of things to do today.”
Adjusting his mood, Ling Jingxuan threw the booklet into the sleeve pocket, taking the children to the small dining hall, the table had been placed full with food, the special breakfast they had. There was also milk and eggs. Others were already waiting there.
“Daddy, I want to do things for you, too.”
After sitting down, Ling Wen suggested seriously.
“Haha…OK, how about this? You will be in charge of wolf daddy’s house from now on. Later I will let Steward Zhu to give you the sketch to you.”
Hearing him, Ling Jingxuan didn’t refuse it. It wasn’t a bad thing for the kids to do things within their ability. The transformation of Falling Rain Yard was not that hard, especially that those decorations had already been prepared. They only needed to move them over. The only thing they needed to make was the tatami. So it wouldn’t be a problem leaving it to the kids.
“Hmm.”
Nodding, Ling Wen started to enjoy his breakfast. Ling Wu who never wanted to be left behind didn’t fight over it with him. First, he had no time, for Brother Yan was feeding him. Second, his big brother’s thing was his thing. So there was no need.
“Xiaoming, are you also going to attend the morning court meeting?”
Pouring a cup of milk for the children respectively, Ling Jingxuan turned to look at Yan Xiaoming who was feeding the small bun. Too many things of the court, he had no interest of knowing them all. He only needed to know things about those relevant ones.
“Yeah, I’m supposed to, because my father often asks me to handle those memorials with him. But now I am on holiday now, so whether I got or not is both fine.”
Having no idea why he asked so, Yan Xiaoming still answered honestly, because he knew Uncle Ling would never calculate him.
“Then you go with Shengrui. It’d be a pity if you don’t go. You and Shengrui together, I guess a lot of people would have their own thoughts about it, and then you can notice who need our special attention. And after coming back, remember to make a list of those forces in the capital. We’ll only be looked down upon if we keep defending here. Sometimes, we need to grab an opportunity to fight back.”
Fighting for the throne had already surfaced, and those officials in the court should have chosen the prince they would stand behind. So, Highness Sheng Yan Shengrui’s attitude would be very important. Let alone he’d go attend the morning court meeting together with Xiaoming. Even if he only talked with him, it’d cause people’s suspiciousness.
“OK, then I’ll go with my ninth imperial uncle later.””
As smart as Yan Xiaoming was, he instantly understood his intention. But Yan Shengrui had no idea why, but also dare not refuse his wife’s arrangement for him, unless…he still wanted to stand guard for his wife tonight after getting turned on.
“Jingxuan, what are you going to do today?”
Things in the court, Yan Shengrui could handle it. What made Zeng Shaoqing curious was Ling Jingxuan’s moves. His intuition told him that it should be fun.
“What can I do? After making things arranged at home, I will go check the houses you bought for me and the shops on the opposite side. But, don’t follow me!”
Shrugging, Ling Jingxuan said while eating, and finally, even didn’t forget to throw him a warning look. Now few people in the capital knew him. So he could take this opportunity to go out and breathe some fresh air. If he was with him, nah, that’d be too eye-catching.
“Er…can’t you make me a little happier?”
Throwing him a resentful eye, Zeng Shaoqing poked the food in his bowl bitterly. Come on! He still wanted to watch for fun!
“If you want to have fun, go to the court. It’s going to be fun today. And what I’m going to do late is boring.”
“I want to, but you know, my old man is back. Tell you what, after my mom came back from the court, she immediately forced me to get married. And my old man has always listened to my mom. I should already feel blessed that he doesn’t come to me. How dare I offer myself to him?”
It’s all because of that old witch! What did it have anything to do with her whether he got married or not? Now he even couldn’t go home now.
“So you also have someone you are afraid of. I thought you are not afraid of anyone or anything under the sky.”
Ling Jingxuan deliberately put on an ‘amazing’ expression. Zeng Shaoqing said grumpily, “my old man is an old bandit. How can I not be afraid of him? Your man is also afraid of him.”
It wasn’t embarrassing to be afraid of his dad? Having been on the battlefield all year round, the old man had already worn out that little bit remained gracefulness. Even the words old bandit were a compliment of him. Through the whole Qing Kingdom, who didn’t know he is an unreasonable one? He even wouldn’t show face to the emperor if the emperor got him mad. Both he and Shengrui grew up under his slaps.
“Really? Then I’ll have to go visit him in person some other day.”
Throwing an eye at his man, Ling Jingxuan immediately made the decision of going to visit him after things at home were all done. Someone who could subdue both Shengrui and Shaoqing. Wow!
“Ahem…Well, I’m going.”
Clearing his throat trying to cover his embarrassment, Yan Shengrui quietly threw his dagger eyes at the one who ‘badmouthed’ him. And Yan Xiaoming on the side also got up, “I’m going too.”
“Brother Yan, you are leaving?”
The small bun grabbed the hem of his robes. He still hadn’t had enough intimacy with Brother Yan.
“Hehe…No, it’s not like what you think. I’m just going to attend the morning court meeting with my imperial uncle. That’s my job. I’ll be back soon. You stay home and wait for me.”
Rubbing his head dotingly, Yan Xiaoming even bent over to kiss on his forehead. He liked the way Wu looked at him wholeheartedly like now most.
“Hmm, come back early!”
The small bun finally gave a hearty smile. Holding his hand, Ling Wu only came back after sending them by gate, wearing a bright smile on that little face. Seeing his silly smile, Ling Jingxuan felt so helpless.
