She then went to her private vault and found mostly silver and gold; she didn't even bother to look at the worthless porcelain and jade pieces.

"A box of silver."

"No... gold."

Gold looks better than silver.

Let's send a box of gold instead.

The little head is a bit hot. How about I donate some blood and send some food instead?

Food is the most important thing.

Surely there won't be any problem with her delivering the grain.

Wait, she suddenly remembered, "Did the Yue Kingdom send any grain?"

This is asking whether the grain worth 300,000 taels of silver promised by the Yue Kingdom has arrived.

Ah Hao shook her head, "This servant does not know. You can summon Lord Murong to ask him tomorrow."

"Um."

There was no morning court session the next day, but Murong Yue still got up on time and ate three bowls of tofu pudding, a basket of steamed buns, a meat porridge, and a fish porridge for breakfast.

A boiled goose egg.

There were also all sorts of snacks, and Murong Yue ate until her belly was round and full.

Then I had to start studying immediately.

Ah Hao felt that it was not appropriate for him to always teach His Majesty himself; it would be better to let the Grand Preceptor or Master Meng Xueyi do it.

It would be much easier to find the Imperial Advisor.

She sent a message to the Imperial Preceptor's residence.

No sooner had Li Xuanji left than Xiao Yuanshuang's carriage arrived.

Unfortunately, she missed her target.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Preceptor has entered the palace," the guard reported.

They've entered the palace?

Aren't all the officials on vacation?

Xiao Yuanshuang frowned in thought, then lowered the carriage curtain. "Let's go back to the palace."

Now that Li Xuanji has entered the palace, she will go back to the palace to confront him.

Murong Anle was already aware of their subtle actions here, as well as the conversation between the brother and sister in Lingxi Palace yesterday.

After Xiao Yuanshuang moved into Lingxi Palace, she conducted a thorough inspection of the main hall and its interior to ensure that there were no hidden mechanisms or secret compartments, and no channels for eavesdropping.

Therefore, she felt very reassured when she talked to Xiao Yuanche yesterday.

Unfortunately, she underestimated the Ministry of Works of Qing Kingdom.

The Ministry of Works possessed a magical device that allowed them to hear conversations inside a room from several meters away.
