Taotao was eating diced fruit on the couch. When he saw Grandpa Emperor and his sister come in, he quickly got off the couch and bowed.

"Grandpa, Jin An."

Ever since Song Qing started teaching Taotao, the first thing he taught her was etiquette, because the royal family attaches the most importance to etiquette and rules.

The emperor sat down on the couch holding Susu and watched Taotao perform the ceremony in a very formal manner. Her serious little look was about 70% similar to that of the prince when he was a child.

"Taotao, hurry up and come to me.

Taotao walked up to Grandpa Huang on her two short legs.

When Susu saw the diced fruit dessert on the low table, she got down from Grandpa Huang, sat on the couch, picked up a piece of date paste cake with her little hand, put it into her mouth and took a bite.

The emperor often held Susu in his arms, but rarely held his grandson, because every time he held Susu, there was no room for him. This time, Susu was not in his arms, so there was room.

"Come, Grandpa Huang will hold you."

The emperor was stunned for a moment when he picked up Taotao.

Because Taotao is the older brother, he should be heavier than Susu, but he found that Taotao is lighter than Susu.

He turned his head to look at Susu, only to see her holding the date paste pastry in one hand and a spoon in the other, taking bite after bite, her mouth never stopping since she sat down.

With such a big appetite, it is not impossible for him to weigh more than his brother...

Shen Chuwei followed the emperor into the house and saw the emperor holding Taotao and Susu, the little foodie, eating pastries.

Chu Lingfeng came in afterwards and stood in an inconspicuous position, trying his best to be ignored.

The emperor raised his head and glanced at Chu Lingfeng, who was standing quietly in the corner, calm and composed. He had an air of nobility about him, worthy of being the eldest son of King Chu Nan.

"Crown Princess, this is the eldest son of King Chu Nan, Prince Chu Lingfeng. He will be Taotao's study companion starting today."

Shen Chu turned his head slightly to look at Chu Lingfeng. It turned out to be Prince Chu. No wonder he had such a cold and noble aura. The key was that he was also handsome.

"It's hard for Taotao to be lonely studying alone, and the royal father has made very appropriate arrangements."

Chu Lingfeng looked at the little princess and the crown prince. Are you still lonely with such a lovely sister?

What Chu Lingfeng didn't know was that the Emperor and the Empress doted on Susu. It didn't matter whether she had talent or not. What mattered was that Susu was happy. It didn't matter whether she wanted to learn or not.

It’s not too late to learn when she grows up.

As a layperson, Shen Chuwei would naturally not force her daughter to master all the arts, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is also good to be a layperson.

The emperor held Taotao for a while and then put her back on the couch to continue eating the diced fruit.

Susu stood up with the help of the low table, holding a piece of jujube paste in one hand, and passed it to Grandpa Huang's mouth, saying in a baby voice: "Grandpa, this cake."

The emperor looked at the cake in front of him. He took it with his hand, raised his head and looked at Susu, smiling dotingly, "Baby still remembers to get food for Grandpa."

After delivering the pastries, Susu got down from the couch swiftly, came to Chu Lingfeng with the date paste pastry, and held the pastries in her hand in front of him.

"Small pot, good cake, good cake."

Chu Lingfeng looked at the date paste cake in front of him, then looked at the little princess looking at him with a smile on her face, and he didn't dare to take it.

At this moment, my stomach growled.

Chu Lingfeng was extremely embarrassed.

Shen Chuwei reminded in a gentle voice: "Prince Chu, my hands are almost sore from lifting them."

Chu Lingfeng raised his head and glanced at the Crown Princess before taking the pastry from the little princess.

Susu saw Chu Lingfeng took it, and then happily threw herself into Grandpa Huang's arms, "Grandpa, hold the baby."

Susu usually climbs onto the couch to eat, but today since the emperor is here, she is too lazy to do it by herself.

Every time the emperor heard his precious granddaughter say "hold the baby", his heart softened. He smiled and picked up Susu and put her on the couch.

"Grandpa Crab." After Susu sat down, she couldn't wait to continue eating the diced fruit.

The emperor did not stay long. He played with Susu for a while and then left.

As Taotao's study partner, Chu Lingfeng originally did not need to live in Hehuan Palace. However, for convenience, he moved into Hehuan Palace just like he did when he was Yin'er's study partner.

Shen Chuwei asked someone to clean up a room and furnished it with new bedding and other items.

Chu Lingfeng followed Shen Chuwei into his new residence. When he saw the brand new bedding inside, he was still stunned.

Shen Chuwei glanced at the room and found it was not much different from Taotao's room, and the furnishings were also similar.

It was Chu Lingfeng’s first time here, and he felt unfamiliar and reserved, but she understood.

"Prince Chu, if you need anything, just go to Chunxi and she will prepare it for you."

Chu Lingfeng came back to his senses, raised his head and looked at the Crown Princess, then remembered to bow and greet, "Thank you, Crown Princess."

Shen Chuwei continued, "Where is your follower? I'll have someone take him to the side room so he can get familiar with the environment."

Chu Lingfeng paused after hearing this, and replied after a long while: "He is no longer here."

Shen Chu was stunned for a moment. Gone? Then he realized that the person was gone.

Seeing that Chu Lingfeng was unwilling to say more, she didn't ask any more questions.

"I'll make arrangements for you later. You can pick a suitable attendant. As the Prince of Chu, you can't be without an attendant to take care of your daily life."

Chu Lingfeng nodded and thanked him.

Shen Chuwei stared at Chu Lingfeng for a while, then turned and walked out.

After they walked away, Shen Chuwei ordered: "Chunxi, go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs later and ask them to send a few people over so that Prince Chu can choose one."

Chunxi nodded and said, "I will go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs right away."

Shen Chuwei instructed again: "Also, Prince Chu has just arrived, so he must be a little reserved. You should take the initiative to ask about his daily needs."

Not long after Chunxi went to the Imperial Household Department, Eunuch Quan brought three young eunuchs who were about fifteen years old.

Eunuch Quan smiled and said, "Prince Chu, they are all new to the palace and are very obedient. You can choose one yourself."

Prince Chu glanced at the three people in front of him, who were of different heights, and his gaze finally fell on the young eunuch on the far right. He was thin and had a delicate appearance.

He raised his hand and pointed: "It's you."

The eunuch who was chosen was Yuanbao. He didn't expect that he would be chosen and was stunned for a moment.

On the way here, they were both afraid that Prince Chu would choose them, because Prince Chu was just a hostage and had no future at all.

Everyone says he is lucky. He is so thin that he would definitely not be selected.

"What are you standing there for? Would you like to pay your respects to Prince Chu?"

After Yuanbao realized what was happening, he immediately knelt on the ground and acknowledged his master. "The servant Yuanbao greets the master."

Chu Lingfeng said calmly: "Get up."

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

"Then I will go back first." Eunuch Quan took them back with a smile.

The two people who were not selected secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were not chosen, otherwise they would have no chance to succeed.

After Chunxi saw that Prince Chu had made his choice, she turned and left.

Shen Chuwei was sitting on the couch cracking melon seeds when she saw Chunxi walk in. "What's going on?"

"Master, Prince Chu has already selected his entourage." Chunxi said as he walked over, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and placed it in front of Shen Chuwei.

"Master, Prince Chu doesn't seem to like to talk much."

Shen Chuwei picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. "Maybe it's because I'm introverted, plus I just came to a strange place. It will get better over time."

Chunxi smiled and nodded, "True, but this way, Taotao will have someone to study with."

"Crown Princess." Tao Liangyuan walked in slowly with a smile.

After Concubine Xu left the palace, Tao Liangyuan came very frequently, almost every day.

Shen Chuwei waved to Tao Liangyuan, "Tao Liangyuan, come and eat some melon seeds."

After Tao Liangyuan sat down, she grabbed a handful of claws and started knocking, "Crown Princess, I heard that Taotao has a study partner. Is that true?"

Shen Chu nodded slightly, "It's Prince Chu, a very handsome boy."

Tao Liangyuan asked with a gossipy look on her face: "How beautiful is she?"

Shen Chuwei was at a loss for words to describe the little boy. She thought for a moment and said, "His appearance is comparable to Taotao's, but he is thinner than Taotao. He is a very polite boy."

"Now that you mention it, I'm a little curious." Tao Liangyuan cracked a melon seed and looked at Shen Chuwei with a smile, "Crown Princess, let's go and take a look together."

Shen Chuwei agreed readily, "Okay."

Putting down the melon seeds, the two went to the prince's bedroom next door.

As soon as I approached the study, I heard Song Qing's gentle voice.

"Prince Chu, this poem is good."

"Mr. Song, you are overpraising me."

"Taotao is also amazing."

Tao Liangyuan walked to the door and looked inside, and saw Song Qing wearing a moon-white robe and a white jade belt around his waist, which made him look tall and thin.

Shen Chuwei also came over, her eyes fell on Chu Lingfeng, and she nudged Tao Liangyuan's arm with her elbow, "See, that handsome boy is Prince Chu."

"Oh." Tao Liangyuan reacted and moved his gaze from Song Qing to the boy in front of him. The boy looked to be only eight or nine years old, thin, but his young face was very handsome.

"I saw it. It's very beautiful." Tao Liangyuan said, looking at Song Qing again.

Song Qing put down the book in his hand and said, "Prince Chu, take the Crown Prince out to play for a while, take a rest, and then continue."

"Yes, Mr. Song." Chu Lingfeng walked out with Taotao. Seeing the Crown Princess, he stepped forward and bowed, "I pay my respects to the Crown Princess."

Taotao happily threw herself into Shen Chuwei's arms, "Mother."

"Taotao." Shen Chuwei squatted down in front of her son and looked at his white and tender hands stained with ink. "I will take you to wash your hands and eat something."

She held her son's hand and stood up, looking down at Chu Lingfeng, "Prince Chu, you should also go wash your hands and eat something."

Chu Lingfeng nodded and followed the Crown Princess to wash his hands.

Before leaving, Shen Chuwei said to Tao Liangyuan: "Play for a while, I'll be back soon."

Tao Liangyuan said: "Go and do your work, don't worry about me."

After Shen Chuwei and the other two walked away, Tao Liangyuan looked into the study, where Song Qing was sitting at the desk reading a book. She walked in.

"What book are you reading, Mr.

Song Qing raised his head and saw Tao Liangyuan. He quickly put down the book in his hand, stood up and saluted, "Tao Liangyuan."

Tao Liangyuan walked over slowly, picked up the book that Song Qing had just read, glanced at the contents, and when she thought of the script she was reading, she suddenly curled the corners of her lips.

"Tanhualang, I have a book here, do you want to read it?"

Song Qing lowered his head and closed his eyes: "I like reading. If there is anything I haven't read, I would naturally like to read it."
