Haitang prepared a sumptuous dinner for the young crown prince consort. As she set the dishes on the table, she asked confusedly, “Crown Prince Consort, why did you help the eldest prince consort?”

“I helped her because I wanted to. There is no need for so many whys and wherefores,” Qiao Mu replied absentmindedly.

“Oh,” Haitang responded leadenly.

“They are bound to find a scapegoat for this affair with the spiritual bamboo shoots. Since the king does not want to watch his eldest son die, there is no other choice than for Consort Dowager Shu and the Shu Family to be that scapegoat.”

After saying this, Qiao Mu drank a mouthful of the tasty fish soup, and she squinted her eyes in satisfaction. She looked up at Haitang and asked, “Haitang, you’ve trained your cooking skills?”

“His Highness has said, Haitang must learn everything that the crown prince consort is not adept at. Such as cooking skills, needlework, planting, breeding…”

“Got it!” Qiao Mu interrupted Haitang in speechlessness.

The freak, after Haitang started reeling off the names of these skills, she felt like there really was a lot that she didn’t know how to do!

Haitang blinked. “Crown Prince Consort, you do not need to worry. You just have to bring Haitang along with you in the future. Haitang can rob and kill and then wash her hands to cook soup. Haitang can do anything!”

Qiao Mu turned to look at this stodgy child, and she couldn’t resist laughing.

“Go away.” You annoying fella.

Haitang earnestly walked outside after collecting all the dishes and utensils. When she got to the door, however, she couldn’t resist glancing back at Qiao Mu. “Crown Prince Consort, you actually should smile more.”

Qiao Mu was stunned, and then she helplessly shook her head.

The purpose of their trip was to spend a pleasant three days in this Yating Court.

But from the situation now, Her Majesty the Queen and the others were not in a good mood, so they were probably going to head back to the palace tomorrow night.

After all, Queen Zhao was eager to report back to the king about the spiritual bamboo shoots, while Consort Cheng had trouble eating and sleeping. She was not in the mood to have fun.

With the top two personages at odds, their moods would naturally affect the people beneath them.

Qiao Mu’s bed had been made anew, with her own cotton-padded mattress and quilts. Rolling into these freshly scented sheets made everything perfect!

Before sleeping, Qiao Mu solemnly yanked out Chirpy from the paradise and patted its small head, instructing, “When Master falls asleep later, remember to wake me up in case something happens in the middle of the night!”

The little fat squirrel hugged its belly and nodded furiously.

In the end—

Not only did Qiao Mu have a good night’s sleep, but when she opened her eyes, she saw that fat squirrel curled up on her pillow with its bulging belly and in a slumber even deeper than hers.

Qiao Mu was simply exasperated. Sure enough, these cutesy little creatures were each more unreliable than the next!

Like she said, ferocious beasts were better!

“Crown Prince Consort, you have woken up.” Haitang walked inside and curtsied. “Just now, Her Majesty the Queen has sent a message. She is having all the princesses and ladies group up by themselves to go sight-seeing in Yating Court.”

“We will be returning to the palace before the sun sets.”

Qiao Mu nodded. It was as she had estimated. Queen Zhao was impatient to return to the palace and report the affair with the spiritual bamboo shoots to the king.

But this did not have much to do with her. Since the greater half of the day was free time, then she’d just… reluctantly take a stroll around.

Along with Princess Mi, the master and servant duo strolled around Yating Court for less than an hour before getting tired of wandering about.

There just so happened to be a mountain gazebo up ahead, and the scenery looked quite nice too.

Hence, the trio walked over, but then they halted when they got close.. They saw Yi’an supporting Queen Zhao as they walked into the gazebo while chatting and laughing.
