When Xiao Liulang returned to Bishui Alley, Little Jing Kong had just come back from the other end of the alley. He had gone to deliver mooncakes. Everyone in the neighborhood took good care of them, so JiaoJiao also made mooncakes for the neighbors.

After delivering the mooncakes, Little Jing Kong was very happy as he hopped back home.

At the entrance, he unexpectedly met his bad brother-in-law.

He immediately suppressed his cheerful expression, becoming serious and stern, "Where did you go? I couldn't find you just now."

Listening to the little guy’s authoritative tone, Xiao Liulang felt amused and exasperated at the same time, "I went to deliver mooncakes, just like you."

"Oh." Little Jing Kong clearly wasn't satisfied with this vague answer, so he asked, "Where did you deliver them?"

"To the palace." Xiao Liulang said, "To Grandaunt."

"Where else?" Little Jing Kong put his hands behind his back and looked at him.

Xiao Liulang asked, "Why do you think I delivered somewhere else?"

Little Jing Kong snorted, "I just feel you did!"

The little guy's intuition was so sharp that it was scary. Xiao Liulang composed himself and ruffled the little guy’s short hair, saying, "Just go inside."

"But did you deliver elsewhere?" Little Jing Kong asked persistently.

"Why do you want to know?" Xiao Liulang replied.

Little Jing Kong puffed out his chest, "I want to know who delivered more mooncakes!"

Xiao Liulang was once again in between laughter and exasperation, "Why do you even want to compare that? You're so childish."

Little Jing Kong put his hands on his hips and stamped his feet, "I'm not childish! At least I won't wet the bed when I'm at your age!"

Xiao Liulang smirked, poking his small head, "Are you sure it was me and not you who wet the bed?"

Little Jing Kong brushed his hand away from his head, "It's you, it's you, it's definitely you! Bleh, bleh, bleh!"

After sticking out his tongue, the little guy made a funny face at Xiao Liulang and swiftly entered the house.

Xiao Liulang chuckled, "And he says he’s not childish."

The family had a lively meal in the courtyard while enjoying the moon. Feng Lin and Master Lu had a bit too much to drink; they were arm in arm, almost on the verge of becoming sworn brothers.

But that wasn’t something permitted to happen, otherwise Xiao Liulang's seniority would be lowered. In the future, he wouldn't be able to address Feng Lin as "Feng Lin" anymore, instead he would have to call him "Uncle Feng".

Xiao Liulang quickly stuffed Feng Lin’s mouth with a mooncake with five-nut filling, preventing this sudden act of becoming sworn brothers.

"Feng Lin had drunk too much. Keep an eye on him tonight." Xiao Liulang said to Lin Chengye.

Feng Lin was currently staying in Lin Chengye's residence and paid some nominal rent each month as a sign of their friendship.

"I, I will." Lin Chengye answered.

As it was getting late, Lin Chengye helped the heavily drunk Feng Lin to his feet and bid farewell.

On the other side, Nan Xiang and Master Lu were also preparing to leave.

Master Lu was completely intoxicated and patted Xiao Liulang on the shoulder, saying, "This master’s wife said she has seen you before. Hehehe."

Nan Xiang smiled and said to Xiao Liulang, "He's drunk. Don't listen to his nonsense."

"It's fine." Xiao Liulang didn't take it to heart.

Gu Xiaoshun and Gu Yan helped the drunken Master Lu onto the carriage. Gu Xiaoshun was worried about his master and master's wife, so he suggested, "I'll go and take care of Master tonight."

Seeing a grown man so drunk, he was afraid his master's wife wouldn't be able to handle him.

Nan Xiang, who could handle ten drunkards, smiled slightly and replied, "Sure."

It wouldn't be a bad idea to bring her son back too.

"Xiaoshun will come back with us, and I'll take him to school tomorrow morning." Nan Xiang told Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang.

The young couple had no objections.

Little Jing Kong waved goodbye.

"Goodbye, Master Lu!"

"Goodbye, Lady Nan Xiang!"

"Goodbye, Brother Feng Lin!"

"Goodbye, Brother Chengye!"

The whole alley was filled with soft voices of farewell.

The next day, there were no classes at the Imperial Academy, so Gu Jiao took Little Jing Kong to the palace to visit Grandaunt. On their way, they detoured to the residence of the Minister of War to pick up Xu Zhouzhou, who was also on holiday, and they entered the palace together.

Qin Chuyu's little prince vest had disappeared on a dark and windy night. Now both Little Jing Kong and Xu Zhouzhou knew he was the Empress's son. To cover up his own dishonesty, Qin Chuyu promptly shifted the blame onto Little Jing Kong, saying, "The Empress Dowager is actually his Grandaunt! He, he, he hid it longer than I did!"

Little Jing Kong had been the first to enter the Imperial Academy, and at that time, he had already been calling the Empress Dowager "Grandaunt," while Qin Chuyu was a transfer student.

In terms of deception history, Little Jing Kong did indeed have more experience than Qin Chuyu.

In reality, these two situations were different. Qin Chuyu intentionally concealed his identity, while Little Jing Kong was simply unaware of Grandaunt's true identity.

But in the heat of the moment, Little Jing Kong couldn't think of this distinction.

The logical genius, Little Jing Kong, encountered an irrefutable situation for the first time.

Luckily, Xu Zhouzhou was a magnanimous friend, and he quickly changed the topic, "Let's go play!"

The three troublemakers of the Imperial Academy set out again to roam the palace!

The weather was pleasant, with clear skies and gentle breeze.

Gu Jiao and Empress Dowager Zhuang took the phoenix palanquin to the imperial garden to bask in the sun.

Yesterday was the Moon Festival, and all the imperial princes and prince’s consorts came to the palace to celebrate. Ning Wangfei naturally attended, bringing along her two young princesses.

The two princesses were both two years old and were at an adorable age.

Imperial Consort Zhuang adored them and allowed the young princesses to stay in the palace overnight.

Today, Ning Wang and Ning Wangfei came to the palace again to take the little princesses back home.

The two little princesses had just met the three troublemakers of the Imperial Academy and followed them to play.

Thus, Imperial Consort Zhuang and Ning couple came to the imperial garden to wait for them. Unexpectedly, they encountered Empress Dowager Zhuang and Gu Jiao.

"Empress Dowager!" Imperial Consort Zhuang greeted with a smile, bowing slightly. Then, she looked at Gu Jiao and said, "JiaoJiao is here too."

Upon learning that Gu Jiao was favored, Imperial Consort Zhuang changed how she addressed her.

"Grandmother." Ning Wang saluted Empress Dowager Zhuang, and then nodded to Gu Jiao who was standing nearby, "Physician Gu."

Compared to his warm address to Empress Dowager Zhuang, his manner of addressing her was more standard, not overly familiar nor distant. It felt natural.

Gu Jiao greeted him naturally in return, "Your Highness Ning Wang."

After that, Ning Wangfei also exchanged greetings with Empress Dowager Zhuang and Gu Jiao.

"Please take a seat."

With Empress Dowager Zhuang's command, the palace servants quickly arranged chairs and tables for them.

Eunuch Qin said, "Empress Dowager, Young Miss Gu, please have a seat."

Imperial Consort Zhuang couldn't help but purse her lips. Here she was, the Imperial Consort, and the First Prince Ning Wang was also present, yet Eunuch Qin first attended to an outsider.

Both Gu Jiao and Empress Dowager Zhuang took their seats.

“Why aren’t you supporting the Empress Dowager?" Imperial Consort Zhuang whispered to Gu Jiao, even though she could see that the Empress Dowager was in good health and didn't need anyone's support.

"Empress Dowager, it's quite sunny here. How about moving to the pavilion for some shade?" Imperial Consort Zhuang suggested.

Empress Dowager Zhuang replied calmly, "If you want to go, go ahead. Aijia came here to bask in the sun."

Imperial Consort Zhuang fell silent.

Ning Wang gracefully intervened, "The sun is indeed nice today. After winter comes, we may not have a chance to enjoy such weather. Imperial concubine mother, please have a seat."

Imperial Consort Zhuang took her seat on the other side of Empress Dowager Zhuang, while Ning Wang and Ning Wangfei sat opposite the three of them.
