"Go back!" Xiqiu paused and looked towards Tiancheng: "Go and call Min back."
Tiancheng acknowledged and left. Xiqiu returned to Chongen Residence in the same sedan chair she came in. Inside the room, Zhi was leaning against the window teasing the Oriole. Seeing Xiqiu return, he smiled and asked, "Mother, why hasn't Third Brother come back yet?"
"Are you hungry?" Xiqiu stepped through the door, patted Zhi's head, and said, "Your brother is doing his schoolwork. He'll be back soon."
Zhi nodded, and Xiqiu turned to sit on the rose bed, her mind pondering about the reason behind the Emperor's sudden visit.
There have indeed been many issues in the court these days, one wave after another...
Could it be that she was overthinking it?
After waiting for a long time, Zhi kept saying he was hungry, and Min still hadn't returned. Xiqiu gave him a piece of pastry and instructed Qingshan outside, "Be careful and go to the second gate to see why Young Master Min hasn't returned yet."
