With these guesses in mind, Hong Xiaoduo deliberately sat next to Imperial Censor Luo when she took her seat.
Prefect Zhong didn't think much of it, but Prince Yi couldn't help but wonder: how could this young lady Hong, a father of three, treat Imperial Censor Luo so specially?
Did I do something wrong or rudely?
His daughter had told him that this young lady, Hong, didn't care about the other person's status or position when interacting with them; she only cared about whether she liked them or not.
What is it about me that she dislikes?
“Yuheng, be on your guard these next few days. Keep an eye on your mother. Is there anything she needs Imperial Censor Luo’s help with? If so, tell her to ask your father. Your father will definitely find a way to help her.” Prince Yi whispered to his daughter.
Yuheng thought about it seriously for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of that either, Father. Don't make wild guesses. Generally speaking, she's the one who helps others solve their problems."
Although she was a princess, Yuheng still preferred to call him father rather than king.
Little did Yuheng know that her father hadn't slept a wink last night, thinking about this very matter.
I can't help but want to. My daughter has been found, but she still wants to stay with this Miss Hong.
He actually wanted to refuse, but he could agree to change only the surname while keeping the given name she had given him.
However, she is his only daughter. She had been lost for eight years and he had finally found her. Of course, he wanted to keep her by his side so he could see her every day, pamper her, and try his best to make up for the eight years he had missed. He had even thought about finding a husband for his daughter in a few years.
Unexpectedly, the daughter refused to stay in the palace and insisted on staying with her "mother" master and her brothers and sisters who had gone through hardships together!
He really wanted to harden his heart and refuse, but when he saw his precious daughter crying, his heart ached, and he could only grit his teeth and agree.
However, Prince Yi had other plans in mind. He agreed to his daughter's request for the time being, thinking that after she returned to the palace and stayed at home for a few days, living the life of a princess, she might change her mind and not want to leave.
To be a noble princess in the royal palace, surrounded by servants, and in terms of food, the palace has chefs who are skilled in various regional cuisines and cooks who can make all kinds of exquisite pastries.
In terms of clothing, the Prince's Palace had the best embroiderers and tailors.
Even hair ornaments and accessories have their own craftsmen.
Prince Yi only has this one precious daughter. To put it bluntly, in terms of food, clothing, daily necessities, and the favor she receives, none of the current emperor's princesses can compare to his beloved princess.
When choosing a husband for the princess of the emperor's nephew, one must also consider political alliances and perhaps avoid powerful ministers.
The princess's marriage might also be arranged as a political compromise, a way to maintain stability during wartime, and a form of marriage alliance.
As for the marriage of his daughter, Prince Yi, as long as the son-in-law is good-looking, of good character, talented, worthy of his daughter, and can make her happy, that's enough.
Sitting on the other side, Zhong Ziwen got up and personally poured tea for Quan Jinghuai. As his son's teacher, he, as the father, naturally had to show him respect.
Hong Xiaoduo was also chatting with Tian Shu's father: "Lord Luo, I heard that Tian Shu looks like your wife? Among your other children, who do they resemble more?"
"He does look a lot like his mother. You'll see when you meet my wife, Miss Hong. Of the five children, only the second and fifth don't resemble me. The other three all look like me, especially the eldest, sigh." As Luo Yuansong said this, his originally cheerful expression suddenly turned somber.
What happened? Is it that Tian Shu's eldest brother is disobedient and disappointing?
However, since Tian Shu's father wouldn't say, she couldn't easily inquire, because there was no way to ask. How could she ask, "What happened to your eldest son? What's wrong with him?"
If he wants to know, he should ask Tian Shu. Even if his father hasn't had a chance to tell him yet, it's perfectly reasonable for him to ask about the main members of his family.
The food was about to be served, and the waiter moved the tea and snacks on the table to the coffee table next to it.
Prince Yi had thought things through very carefully. He calculated that if the number of people were divided into two tables, one table for adults and one table for children, there would be six people at each table.
But I also want to sit at the same table as my daughter to eat, while letting the three children and Feiyan sit at a separate table...
Not only was she afraid of upsetting Hong Xiaoduo and her child's teacher, but she was even more afraid of upsetting her own daughter.
Let's just have one table. We can tell the restaurant manager to make two portions of each dish and place them on either side of the table so that everyone can eat them more easily.
We've ordered quite a few dishes, so we just need to ask the waiter to be clever in arranging them.
The four grown men were definitely drinking. They asked Hong Xiaoduo and Feiyan, and the two of them ordered the same peanut milk as the children.
Having asked their own children, Hong Xiaoduo and Quan Jinghuai, about their preferences, Tian Shu and the others told them that the two disliked the formalities of social occasions.
Coincidentally, Censor Luo and Prefect Zhong were in the same situation.
Yuheng's father was a prince, and he had heard enough of those polite but insincere words. Now, facing his benefactor, he felt that the least he could do to show respect was to say less of those nice-sounding but insincere things.
Therefore, the atmosphere at the table was quite pleasant.
"Yuheng, these shrimp balls are quite good, you should try them." Prince Yi took a bite of the shrimp ball and thought it tasted really good, so he quickly put one on his daughter's plate as well.
Yuheng smiled and nodded, then picked up a piece and took a bite. He whispered to his father, "The taste is alright, but the texture is a bit lacking."
After saying that, he looked at Tianxuan and said, "Second Brother, is the texture of their shrimp balls a little off?"
Tianxuan nodded and said, "The shrimp meat was pounded too finely. Also, the chicken broth for stewing the shrimp balls wasn't thick enough."
"It's not as fresh as the one we made last time," Tianji added.
