49. Use witchcraft to deal with him.
After an incense stick has burned...
Jin Lanyue understood this time.
"Oh..." The little dumpling suddenly remembered something and asked cautiously, "The little prince is currently living in Chonghua Palace, should we... bring Xiaobai back?"
Her voice trailed off: "I just... wanted to ask... what if Yue'er didn't mention it..."
The little prince looked at the little dumpling's nervous expression and suddenly felt like laughing, but also felt a warm feeling in his heart.
Clearly, she was afraid he would be lonely, so she reluctantly gave Xiaobai back to him—although she regretted it as soon as she said it.
He reached out and gently pinched her chubby cheek: "No need. Xiaobai clearly likes you more."
Indeed, at this moment, Xiaobai was happily rubbing against the little dumpling, its little head constantly trying to burrow into her arms.
"Really?" The little dumpling's eyes lit up immediately, then she added shyly, "If you miss Xiaobai, I'll bring it to school every day!"
The little princess chuckled to herself, "I bet you're just hoping Wei Jiayou will say that, aren't you?"
"No way!" the little dumpling retorted loudly, then her voice quickly lowered, "I really do want to... right?"
Looking at them, the little prince suddenly felt the heaviness in his chest lessen considerably: "Shall we raise it together?"
"Okay!" The little dumpling clapped its hands happily.
The little prince reached out and took the little dumpling's hand: "Thank you."
"Hmm?" The little dumpling tilted its head.
"Well..." The little prince was unusually shy, "Thank you for letting me know that I don't need to bully others to prove myself, and that I can make friends too."
The little dumpling blinked and smiled sweetly: "You're great! The little princess, the Grand Tutor, His Majesty, and Little White, everyone likes you!"
Looking at her round little face and sweet smile, the little prince suddenly felt a lump in his throat.
He lowered his head, pretending to straighten his clothes, and secretly wiped the corner of his eye: "Mm."
Xiao Bai seemed to sense his emotions, and stood up to affectionately lick his fingers.
The little prince stopped crying and smiled, then rubbed its little head.
"Oh dear, you're shy now." The little princess poked his reddened ear and laughed.
"I didn't!" the young prince insisted, but not very firmly. "It was... just a little bit..."
“That’s because she’s shy!” the little princess insisted.
"Shy, shy~" the little dumpling clapped her hands in agreement.
The little prince's ears are now red, and his face has turned red all the way down to his neck.
Just then, class started, and the little prince, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, quickly returned to his seat.
Qu Zijin walked in from outside the palace, gently placed the book in his hand on the table, glanced at the three children, but first brought up another matter: "His Majesty issued a decree this morning to select a new companion for His Highness the Prince."
The little princess exclaimed in surprise: "Didn't Wei Jiayou's previous study companions all get rid of him in anger? Father was so angry that he said he wouldn't find him a study companion anymore."
She and the little dumpling both looked at the little prince.
Qu Zijin said, "Now that the young prince has 'turned over a new leaf,' His Majesty has put this matter back on the agenda."
The little dumpling raised her hand and asked, "Grand Tutor, Grand Tutor, is he a study companion like Yue'er?"
“Yes, we must accompany Your Highness to read and practice calligraphy every day, and go out together.” Qu Zijin said, his gaze falling on the young prince. “What does Your Highness think?”
The young prince, recalling his past "glorious achievements," quickly promised, "I... I will definitely treat my study companion well this time. I won't throw tantrums like before."
Qu Zijin nodded: "I am very pleased that Your Highness thinks this way."
"Who will be the reading companion?" the little dumpling asked curiously.
"His Majesty said he would choose from among the scions of noble families."
The little dumpling seemed very happy about this: "Yay! We're going to have a new friend!"
"I hope he can be as cute as Little Moon!" the little princess said.
The young prince quickly nodded, "I want that too!"
"It's rare that we can agree on our views."
"Because," the little dumpling said happily, cupping her face in her hands, "the moon is so cute!"
The three laughed at her self-praise, then nodded in unison, "Yes, yes."
"Alright, let's stop chatting here for now," Qu Zijin coughed lightly and picked up his book. "Now, it's time for class."
"Ah—" the three little ones wailed and resignedly opened the book.
After the casual chat that took up class time, Qu Zijin began to formally teach the three little ones numerology.
The teaching content was customized for the little prince and princess. He was actually quite worried about whether the three-year-old could keep up with the five-year-old prince and princess.
Because of this, he even stayed up all night to make another version of the teaching materials, preparing to give his little girl extra tutoring outside of class time if she couldn't keep up. Although it was well-intentioned, his little girl would probably cry if she found out.
However, what was unexpected but reasonable was that the little dumpling was able to keep up perfectly.
This made him very gratified and proud.
No wonder he's his teacher!
Similarly—
The little dumpling secretly breathed a sigh of relief and patted its little chest.
Fortunately, the system gave her the Basic Knowledge Mastery (Divination Version), so she could understand everything the Grand Tutor taught her.
She's amazing!

Before we knew it, it was time to leave school.
The young prince suddenly grabbed Jin Lanyue's sleeve: "Little Moon..."
He stammered, "Could Xiaobai... stay at Chonghua Palace for a couple of days?"
"Ah..." The little dumpling was a little reluctant to leave, "Two days, that's such a long time..."
"Please, just two days!" the young prince said hastily. "I've had a new doghouse prepared, and some special dried meat made by the royal chef..."
[Task triggered]
Wei Jiayou is helping her steal your things again.
You were seething with hatred. Even though you had practically nothing left, they still wouldn't let you go!
Wei Jiayou was her most loyal follower and her pillar of support; as long as he didn't fall, she wouldn't fall either.
So, you decided to take action against Wei Jiayou.
But he is the current prince, the only prince at that. How can you deal with him?
You fell into deep thought.
But soon, you had an idea.
[Use witchcraft to deal with him!]
You decide to hide a voodoo doll with the emperor's birth date and time written on it in Wei Jiayou's palace, and then guide the emperor to discover it.
[In this way, even if you can't bring down Wei Jiayou, you'll inevitably make him suspicious of the emperor, thus disliking him and causing him to suffer a severe blow.]
[Mission: Sneak the witchcraft doll into Wei Jiayou's palace and then guide the emperor to discover it.]
[Beep]
This task is extremely difficult; the reward has been upgraded.
[Reward: Mind Reading (System Version)]
[Reward Description: Mind Reading (System Version) refers to the ability to hear the thoughts of both the user and the system's host when they converse in other systems.]
The system auntie suddenly spoke, and she said quite a long thing...
The little dumpling blinked, but as always, it didn't understand.
She rubbed her face, trying to think.
It's roughly about... giving a doll to the young prince and then telling His Majesty about it?
The little dumpling understood.
She subconsciously thought—was the little prince too lonely, which was why he needed the doll's companionship?
The little princess told her this morning that the little prince had left his mother and was now living alone.
So, is that why the little prince wants Xiaobai to keep him company?
The more the little girl thought about it, the more she felt sorry for the little prince, and she couldn't help but sympathize and her eyes welled up with tears.
She's so mean! The little prince is so pitiful, yet she won't even let Xiaobai stay with him for two days.
How heartbroken the little prince must be!
He even had to hide away and cry!
And in front of me—
Seeing the little boy's big eyes suddenly fill with tears, the young prince immediately said anxiously, "Um, if you don't want to, that's fine, but please don't..."
