Early the next morning, Xiaobao and Yueyue wore their nice clothes and Yaoniang saw them off at the door.

Jin Wang didn’t go to work today, because he wanted to accompany the pair to the palace.

They travelled in a carriage all the way to the palace. For the rest of the way to the study, Jin Wang walked with the two children. On the way there, they met Wu Wang. He was also accompanying a few children. Not only was he accompanying Fu Ge’er, who was of the right age, but also Xi Ge’er who was less than four years old and Yu Ge’er, who was less than three years old.

Wu Wang stopped and greeted Jin Wang, “Fifth brother.”

Jin Wang nodded and glanced at Xi Ge’er and Yu Ge’er.

Wu Wang smiled and said, “Didn’t His Majesty say to let Chen Ge’er begin his studies? My two boys are full of energy, running rampant all day, so I thought it’d be better to have them follow along as well. No matter what, with a teacher, it’d be a lot better.”

Jin Wang didn’t say anything.

No matter what Wu Wang said, Jin Wang already knew what he had in mind. Same with Xiaobao. Xiaobao already knew that something like this would definitely happen. This was also why he agreed to bring Yueyue along yesterday.

“Fifth brother, why did you bring along a little girl?” Without waiting for King

Without waiting for Jin Wang to speak, Xiaobao held Yueyue’s hand and said, “Yueyue came with me.”

Wu Wang laughed. The child was still a child. No matter how intelligent he was, in the end, he was still a child. He couldn’t help but wonder if it was a bit over the top to bring the two children into the palace despite the protests of his wife and concubine.

But this thought did not last long. Soon they met with Shan Ge’er from Yong Wang’s Family, Hao Ge’er from An Wang’s family, and Xuan Ge’er from Lu Wang’s family. None of these guys had reached the age of four and Wu Wang’s previous thoughts instantly vanished.

When Emperor Hongjing finished morning court, he originally wanted to discuss some matters with his ministers. However, when he saw this situation, he asked the ministers to wait first, then called the princes and the children inside.

Lu Wang was the most restless, and he immediately said, “Father Emperor, erchen’s family only has this one Xuan Ge’er. You’re also aware of how wantonly he behaves. Erchen thought that since his age isn’t that far off, why not bring him along as well and have a teacher to discipline him?”

As soon as he said this, Yong Wang, Wu Wang and the others all echoed similar thoughts.

Emperor Hongjing, who was sitting on the throne, did not express any of his thoughts. He glanced at Jin Wang below and gestured to Yueyue, “She is?”

Before Jin Wang even said anything, Xiaobao said, “Grandfather Emperor, Yueyue wants to accompany me to study together.”

“She’s a girl…”

“A girl can study, too. Father teaches mother at home all the time.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked over. None of them expected the perpetually indifferent and serious Jin Wang would know to play like this.

Even if Jin Wang’s face was as thick as an iron plate, he couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly then scold Xiaobao, “Don’t speak nonsense.”

Xiaobao stopped talking, but his chubby face was full of grievance.

Emperor Hongjing, sitting up top, found this little grandson’s expression really rich. Generally, children like him were ignorant and childish. He was as well. However, he was also quick-witted, outrageously smart, and discerning enough to read other adults’ expressions.

No matter how smart he was, he was still a child. Emperor Hongjing looked at Yueyue standing beside him and sighed inwardly. He had been instantly reminded of how old Xiaobao truly was. Then he thought that if this grandson really didn’t exhibit any childlike innocence, he would’ve definitely wondered whether the child had been taught to behave a certain way by an adult. In the end, he let out a sigh of relief.

Emperor Hongjing rubbed his slightly sore temples. “Since you want to study, then study. You’re all aware of the rules. If you can’t bear to suffer, you might as well leave now.”

Lu Wang hurriedly smiled and said, “Father Emperor, that definitely won’t happen.”

The other families all brought over several children, but there was only one in his family. No matter what, he definitely needed to stay.

Without further ado, Jin Wang led Yueyue and Xiaobao out. After saying a few words to them, he ordered the servants to watch over them carefully. Out of everyone there, Yong Wang was probably the most prepared. He brought two people to accompany his child, a eunuch, and a palace maid. No matter what, he wouldn’t have much to worry about.

Naturally, there were also people following Xiaobao, namely Yu Chan and An Shiyi.

Originally, it was supposed to be An Shi who followed along, but An Shi was too rough to act as a eunuch, so it ended up being An Shiyi.

After Jin Wang and the others left, Li Dequan was ordered to lead the imperial grandsons to the imperial study. The imperial study was located southeast of Qianqing Gate. It had five rooms and these five rooms are extremely spacious. contemporary romance

When Xiaobao and the others arrived, the older children from the princes’ manors were already studying there.

Li Dequan called out the headmaster from inside and repeated Emperor Hongjing’s instructions. Emperor Hongjing wanted to create a separate place for the younger children and to find a suitable teacher for them.

The headmaster was called Zong Mu and he was a scholar from Imperial Academy. He was also the grand secretary and could be considered to be a man of great prestige and knowledge. He received Emperor Hongjing’s verbal edict and arranged for the eunuchs to set up a separate space with tables and chairs. Then he led Xiaobao and the other children who weren’t even as tall as the legs of the tables inside.

He wasn’t in charge of teaching, but another lecturer, Hong Yu, who was sent by the Imperial Academy.
