Prince Rong just gave Yuan Chaokang a faint look. He didn't want to bother with this nephew with black sesame filling.

Prince Rong kept sighing in his heart, wondering why there were only so many smart people in this world.

Yuan Chaokang felt better when he saw his fifth uncle's frustrated look.

So the three of them went to the box next to them, each with their own thoughts.

As soon as Prince Rong entered, he looked around and occasionally reached out to touch things, looking like he had never seen the world before.

Of course, Yuan Bohua and Yuan Chaokang wouldn’t think so.

Yuan Chaokang personally brewed a pot of tea and poured it for his father and fifth uncle, and saw that Prince Rong was still looking around.

Yuan Chaokang couldn't help but call out, "Fifth Uncle, come and try your nephew's tea-making skills."

When Prince Rong heard Yuan Chaokang calling him, he reluctantly came to sit down opposite Yuan Bohua, picked up the tea and took a sip, his eyes instantly lit up:

"This tea is good. Why wasn't there such a good tea treat when I came here before?"

After Prince Rong finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Bohua, and the word "want" was almost written on his face.

Yuan Bohua: I didn’t marry your cousin before.

Yuan Chaokang looked at Prince Rong's antics and laughed unkindly, "Fifth Uncle, you are a prince after all, could you please not act so exaggeratedly?

This tea was requested by my mother from the Emperor not long ago, and my father only had one can. He was supposed to drink it slowly in the carriage, but I just stole it from him."

Upon hearing this, Prince Rong grabbed the remaining half can on the table and said shamelessly, "Brother-in-law doesn't like these either, so give this half can to me!"

Only my cousin can get some good things from the emperor, but the emperor is getting stingier every year.

Yuan Bohua had fought with this guy all those years and had become accustomed to his banditry.

Yuan Bohua only smiled and reminded, "The younger generation is here! Please save some face for yourself!"

"We are all family. It doesn't exist. It doesn't exist." What Prince Rong didn't say was that he felt that Yuan Chaokang had more good things than him!

In fact, during the more than two years that Yuan Bohua and Zhou Qiongyue were away from Yuan'an, Prince Rong often protected the Yuan Chaochang brothers on various occasions, so Prince Rong was quite familiar with Yuan Chaokang.

In particular, Prince Rong saw through Yuan Chaokang's playboy nature, which was of course the reason why Yuan Chaokang did not hide it in front of Prince Rong. The two had a good relationship in private.

The three of them drank several rounds of tea like this, but the procession of Jinshi scholars on horseback still did not arrive.

Prince Rong and his two companions felt hungry again, so they ordered a large table of dishes. When they had almost finished eating, the parade of Jinshi scholars slowly arrived.

Yuan Bohua and the other two stood by the window, watching the scholars walk past them. Of course, they also saw Yuan Chaochang, but they were far away and couldn't even see the expression on Yuan Chaochang's face clearly.

Prince Rong looked at Yuan Chaochang below, then at Yuan Chaokang next to him, and sighed sincerely, "Sometimes I really envy you, my brother-in-law. The princess is gentle, and the son is smart. I can rest assured and enjoy my retirement now."

The few little ones in my palace are so small, when will I be able to retire?"

In particular, Prince Rong thought that the older his brother got, the narrower his mind became. The eldest prince was already so old, but he still didn't allow the princes to get married, set up houses, and get involved in court affairs.

Prince Rong felt heartbroken. His royal brother treated his own son like that, let alone his younger brother!

If the children in the mansion were not still young and none of them could take on the responsibility, he would have been impatient to stay in Yuan'an.

Whenever he thought of this, Prince Rong regretted not listening to his mother and getting married earlier.

"They will grow up. Time flies. I am very glad that I only had two children, Chang'er and Kang'er.

Otherwise, I might still be planning for the future for those little brats, and I wouldn’t be living the comfortable life I do now.”

As time went by, Yuan Bohua not only did not regret having only two children, but felt even more fortunate.

When Prince Rong heard what his brother-in-law said, he thought that he already had two legitimate sons, three illegitimate sons, and one illegitimate daughter in his backyard.

Prince Rong shuddered all over. According to his brother-in-law, he would have to ensure a good future for these children before he could just leave them alone?

The more he thought about Prince Rong, the more desperate he became. He even regretted having so many children. He wanted each of them to have a future. How long would he have to plan for this?

Prince Rong quickly made a decision. "Just find a good way out for the two legitimate sons. As for the others, if they don't have the ability, I won't find a way out for them. I'll just divide up some of the family property and that's it."

They are my children, but not my ancestors."

Yuan Bohua and Yuan Chaokang had no opinions or suggestions on this matter. After all, this was Prince Rong's family affair. Neither of them was the type to meddle in other people's affairs.

After the newly-minted scholars rode their horses through the streets, Yuan Bohua and the other two came out of the box.

After saying goodbye to Prince Rong, Yuan Bohua and Yuan Chaokang, father and son, got on the carriage and waited for Zhou Qiongyue.

When Zhou Qiongyue brought Gulan and Gule out and saw Fang Fu waiting at the door of Tianxiang Tower, Zhou Qiongyue understood instantly.

Fang Fu walked directly towards the carriage of Yuan Bohua and his son.

Yuan Bohua would occasionally lift a corner of the carriage to look outside and saw Zhou Qiongyue coming.

He immediately got off the carriage with a smile and personally helped Zhou Qiongyue into the carriage.

When Yuan Chaokang saw that his father had gone down, he hurried down as well.

Not only did he not receive praise from his father, he was also given a cold stare by his father.

So Zhou Qiongyue, who thought she was still young, was helped up the carriage by her husband and son.

The three of them sat down in the carriage. Zhou Qiongyue couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty and Kang'er, there's no need for this. I still feel young enough! Getting into a carriage without help is too much."

"Your husband wants to help you, what does your age have to do with it?"

"My son also wants to support my mother. It has nothing to do with her beauty."

Seeing that both the prince and the youngest son had an expression of "I know, but I won't change," Zhou Qiongyue could only compromise with a smile, "Then it's up to you two!"

At this moment, Zhou Qiongyue asked Yuan Bohua with a guilty conscience, "What place did Chang'er get in the exam?"

Yuan Bohua and Yuan Chaokang's eyes widened when they heard this. Yuan Chaokang asked in confusion, "Didn't mother see my eldest brother?"

Zhou Qiongyue shook her head a little guiltily and explained the situation at that time, "When I saw Rong Ge'er's style as the top scholar, I couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

When I came to my senses and looked for Chang'er, the team had moved a little ahead and I couldn't see him anymore."

As soon as Zhou Qiongyue finished speaking, Yuan Bohua and Yuan Chaokang, father and son, bent over with laughter in schadenfreude.

Yuan Chaokang was still thinking silently in his heart, wondering if his elder brother would cry if he knew the truth.
