Only Li Xuanji remained as radiant as ever, as if she were made of iron.

The other adults were filled with envy.

When Li Xuanji arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Murong Yue and Ahao were not there. Instead, gray rabbits and hedgehogs were running around everywhere in the hall.

The palace servants dared not use their claws, the little rabbits were afraid of getting hurt, and the little hedgehogs dared not attack.

They could only protect the imperial bed from being ruined.

And Little Grey ran onto the roof beam again.

Li Xuanji moved slightly, lightly leaped onto the roof beam, and grabbed Little Grey.

He left satisfied after feeding the two little ones there.

...

When Murong Yue woke up, she heard the gurgling sound of flowing water and smelled the aroma of stewing meat in a pot.

Lifting the carriage curtain, one could see Li Chi standing beside the carriage.

What are you doing standing here?

"Aren't you going to feed the horses?"

Murong Yue looked at him.

"Ah, I...a commoner..."

"Yes, sir, I'll go feed the horses right away, hehe."

After learning last night that his master was His Majesty, he thought about leaving, but Qi Yuan was not there, so he asked the other imperial guards tremblingly.

Everyone said they didn't know.

I don't know what he's going to do.

His Majesty has fallen asleep again.

When Qi Yuan returned in the middle of the night, he only said one thing: ask His Majesty the next day.

He could only stand by the carriage and wait until dawn to ask for instructions.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty had no intention of letting him leave at all, and even made him feed the horses!

Hehehe!

That means I don't have to leave? I can continue serving His Majesty?

Waaaaah! Your Majesty is so kind.
