Emperor Junlan was in a bind. He had never done these problems before, and his Grand Tutor and Grand Preceptor had never explained how to solve them since he ascended the throne...
These were all very novel questions; he had never encountered them before, yet he did not expect to encounter them today.
He glanced at the man drinking tea beside him, then received a glance in return. The man's tone made him feel utterly pathetic, even useless. "What, Your Majesty, you don't know how?"
Di Junlan smiled and said, "Yes. I'll take my time. Brother, go and rest."
But secretly he was thinking: He refused to believe he couldn't solve these problems tonight. He absolutely couldn't let his brother look down on him! What if his brother thought he was useless and stopped being friends with him?
This cannot be underestimated; it is a matter of imperial dignity!
Murong Jin went back to rest, and as she left the study, she turned back to glance at the emperor who was engrossed in his work.
I couldn't help but chuckle to myself.
Well, although sometimes he seems quite convincing and can even fool people, right now he really looks like a child, both in his mindset and personality.
Murong Jin had already figured out how to deal with this young man; he was only twenty years old, five years younger than her.
There's a generation gap every three years, so she's practically this kid's elder.
Since you call her brother, then you must take on the responsibilities of a brother.
After leaving the study, Murong Jin thought for a moment and said, "Yi Yi, find all the exercises and homework I did in my early years."
Although Yi Yi had some doubts, he still replied, "Yes."
Why are you looking for your master's old homework and exercises?
Those were assignments that the teacher gave to the master years ago, and now... whether we can find them is another matter entirely...
However, if the Prince's Mansion cannot be found, then one should look for the old Prince, who should have kept all the things the master has used since childhood.
"Oh, and also find the manuscripts and notes I made before."
Yi Yi: "Yes!"
In the dead of night, Murong Jin was fast asleep, while the study was still lit, and Cheng Er and Eunuch Zhao were getting anxious.
Why isn't His Majesty out to rest?
After thinking for a moment, Eunuch Zhao said, "It might be soon." After all, His Majesty is a man who wants to climb into the Regent's bed. How could he possibly give up the opportunity to do so because of official duties?
Unless it is very important official business.
Cheng Er remained expressionless. "I've already heard the rooster crow twice."
Eunuch Zhao: "Only twice, no rush, no rush." Your Majesty, what are you doing?! It'll be dawn in just one or two hours! You have court then, and you have to dine with the Regent. Aren't you afraid you won't be able to get up... If you miss your meal with the Regent, you'll blame us for not waking you up...
Eunuch Zhao's face went blank, then he looked at Cheng Er and said, "Why don't you go in and see what His Majesty is doing?"
Cheng Er shook his head. "No, I don't want to be scolded."
Eunuch Zhao: "..." I didn't want to be scolded either, that's why I asked you to go in and take a look.
Yin hour (3-5 AM).
Murong Jin opened her eyes and found herself pinned down by someone.
I knew who it was just by smelling that familiar scent.
By the moonlight, I looked at the person next to me. My hand was on her waist. I could hear her soft, steady breathing. She was sleeping soundly.
Murong Jin couldn't understand how he had suddenly come in. Had Yi Yi let him in?
No, her bodyguards all know her identity, so naturally they wouldn't let a man into her room...
The only thing was that Di Junlan's lightness skill was so exceptional that none of them noticed...
You wouldn't believe how many things this little guy has been hiding.
For example, ability and knowledge, martial arts skills and influence...
How could someone who can emerge victorious in a power struggle between emperors be a pitiful or naive person?
"Brother~~"
Listening to that tender voice, Murong Jin lay beside him watching him without saying a word or making any other move.
If she kicked someone down, it would attract a lot of attention. Although she didn't care about worldly opinions, who would want to be talked about?
The next morning, when Di Junlan woke up, there was no one in bed.
He was sleeping very soundly.
He could only relax when he was with Murong Jin. Otherwise, the slightest noise would make him completely sober. And when he was with Murong Jin, he would not doubt anything no matter what Murong Jin did.
"Zhao Delin".
After a moment of shock, Eunuch Zhao entered the room and looked at the person on the bed, a sense of doubt creeping into his heart.
When did His Majesty come to the Regent's room?
"His Majesty."
"Where is the Regent?"
"The prince has gone to the courtyard for some exercise; it's still early before court."
Upon hearing this, Di Junlan replied, "Hmm."
"By the way, Your Majesty, the Prince just instructed the kitchen to prepare some light food for your morning." He had thought His Majesty was still asleep in his room, but it turned out he was in the Regent's room...
After washing up, Di Junlan went to the backyard. When he saw the man at the stone table, his eyes lit up and he quickly walked over.
Good morning, brother.
Murong Jin was just about to drink tea when she heard that incredibly sweet sound, and she almost dropped her teacup.
Maintain composure and avoid giving away any clues, saying, "Good morning."
Di Junlan plopped down on the stone chair next to him. "What are you doing here, brother? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Murong Jin raised her eyelids slightly, "Someone's snoring was too loud, so I got up because I couldn't sleep."
The smile on Di Junlan's face gradually disappeared. Was the snoring too loud?
He's the only one sleeping with his brother, so is his brother saying he snores?
When did he start snoring?
No, does he snore?
If so, my brother doesn't like noise...
It’s over (??灁??)
Emperor Junlan remained silent for a long time. Murong Jin raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression suggesting that she was probably already wondering if she really could snore.
Di Junlan slid over and squatted down in front of Murong Jin. "Brother, do I really snore? Will it disturb your rest?"
Murong Jin didn't speak. "Your Majesty, breakfast is ready. It's time to eat."
Emperor Junlan gave an "oh" and followed Murong Jin absentmindedly. After breakfast, he immediately told Murong Jin that he was going to the palace first.
On the carriage back to the palace, Emperor Junlan looked at Zhao Delin to the side and said, "Zhao Delin."
"Your Majesty, this old servant is here."
"I'm asking you."
Zhao Delin was a little nervous, after all, His Majesty looked too serious. "Your Majesty, please speak."
"Does the Emperor snore when he falls asleep?"
Zhao Delin: "???"
