"Princess, I will now tell you what these are."
This table is a painting table.
"This is an easel. It's used to support and display paintings."
"These are all paintbrushes. There are many kinds of paintbrushes, including pointed brushes, round brushes, fan brushes, sable brushes, badger brushes, and various kinds of highly elastic animal hair."
"In painting, brush, ink, paper, and inkstone are indispensable elements."
Xiao Xi followed Zhang Shuhao and learned about the painting tools. She then thought about how the paintings she usually saw used multiple colors, while now there was only ink and an inkstone on the painting table.
"Master, aren't there many pretty colors?"
"Colors are extracted from minerals and plants."
"AoAo"
"Princess, I will now teach you how to begin drawing, and then you can practice drawing lines first."
"good"
Zhang Shuhao took out a sheet of Xuan paper and laid it on the painting table. He then took out two paperweights (things used to weigh down painting paper) and placed them on both sides of the Xuan paper to hold it down.
Then they started grinding the ink, and then took out two brushes, one for themselves and one for Xiaoxi'er.
I started teaching Xiaoxi to draw lines.

Hyakunoka and Rohara, who had been hiding in the shadows, also appeared outside the house.
"Baizhong, do you think the princess can learn to paint?"
"Do you think everyone is like you? That you can't learn no matter how hard you try?"
Upon hearing Bai Zhong's words, Lu Yuan immediately clenched his fist and punched Bai Zhong in the face.
Bai Zhong dodged by tilting his head, and Lu Yuan then used his other hand to strike Bai Zhong with his internal energy.
Bai Zhong used his light-footed skill to get behind Lu Yuan, wrapping his arm around Lu Yuan's shoulder.
"Lu Yuan, are you trying to murder your husband?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I become your wife?!"
"No, when did I say I agreed to marry you?"
"Anyway, you're going to marry me anyway, so what's the problem?"
Lu Yuan's hands were both grabbed by Bai Zhong, so Lu Yuan directly stomped on Bai Zhong's feet.
Bai Zhong, who had been stepped on, released his grip on Lu Yuan's hand in pain and hugged his foot.
Then I looked up and saw that Lu Yuan had left.
"Lu Yuan, where are you going?"
"Stay away from you, you despicable person!!!"
After Lu Yuan left, Bai Zhong put down his feet, watched Lu Yuan's departing figure, first gave a helpless smile, then his eyes dimmed.
His face was full of disappointment. He glanced at the spot where Lu Yuan had left, then returned to the shadows to continue protecting Xiao Xi'er.
It's just that my mood isn't as good as it was when Lu Yuan was here.

Liuyun Pavilion
"Brother, hurry up! If you're late, how will you face your sister?"
Qin Jingmu, still asleep, groggily opened his eyes and saw Qin Jingtai's face magnified close to his.
"Are you crazy?"
"It's still dark, and we have to go to our master's place for training every day."
"Brother, let's go there now. After training, we'll go to the Imperial Academy to see our sister right away."
"Brother, get up quickly!!"
"..."
Under Qin Jingtai's persistent pleading, Qin Jingmu had no choice but to get up.
Looking at the hourglass, Qin Jingmu realized it was only past the hour of Yin (3-5 AM), and he felt extremely irritable.
After getting up, he followed Qin Jingtai to Zou Heng's courtyard.
The two began training around 4:45 AM after arriving at the courtyard, but Qin Jingyi had not yet arrived.
Why isn't His Highness here?
"have no idea"
Qin Jingmu spoke numbly, his whole body drowsy.
Qin Jingyi arrived around 5:45 AM, almost 5:00 AM.
"I'm sorry, Master, I'm late."
"It's alright, Your Highness can start together with the Second and Third Princes."
Qin Jingyi also strapped sandbags to his legs and arms and began training with Qin Jingmu and Qin Jingtai.
During training, Qin Jingtai was still thinking about how Xiao Xi'er would get to the palace to study.
"Brother, how did you know that your sister went to the palace school?"
"Also, how will my younger sister go to the palace school?"
"elder brother"
"Brother, why are you ignoring me?"
Qin Jingyu, who was training with him, found Qin Jingtai extremely noisy and impatiently looked at Qin Jingmu beside him.
"Aren't you going to do anything about your brother?"
"He's not just my brother."
Qin Jingyu was speechless at Qin Jingmu's words, "Don't you think he's noisy and disruptive?"
"I can't control it either."
"Why don't you just tell him the answer to the question he asked you?"
I don't want to.
"have to"
Qin Jingyi really didn't want to talk to Qin Jingmu anymore, but Qin Jingtai's nagging continued.
"Brother, what are you and the eldest prince whispering about?"
"Brother, tell me quickly!"
"Brother, why are you ignoring me?"
"elder brother……"
After Qin Jingtai called him "brother" for what felt like the umpteenth time, Qin Jingmu finally couldn't hold back anymore.
"Can you please stop talking?"
"Your voice has been on my mind since I woke up."
"Brother~"
These words hurt Qin Jingtai deeply, and Qin Jingtai felt extremely wronged.
"Stop yelling, I'll tell you."
"Okay, bro, then tell me quickly."
Qin Jingmu first glanced at Qin Jingtai, then at Qin Jingyu beside him, and slowly spoke.
"A few days ago, after we left Master's place, I went to the Imperial Kitchen and saw the Chief Chef Shi Tian chasing after my eldest brother."
Qin Jingmu's Memories:
"Brother, where are you going? Aren't you going to Liuyun Pavilion?"
"You go back first, I'll go to the imperial kitchen."
"oh oh"
Upon hearing that Qin Jingmu was going to the imperial kitchen, Qin Jingtai left.
