For the next two days, Liu Ji didn't go to the National Master Mansion, claiming he needed to "recover from illness."
However, he didn't dare to let his teacher go hungry. After two days of rest, he resumed his routine of cooking for Gongliang Liao at the National Master Mansion.
As for the Beiman Mission, after witnessing Liu Ji's reckless bravery, Sikong Jian didn't arrange for him to go back anymore.
Of course, the main reason for this was Qin Yao. At this stage, provoking a powerful neutral person wasn't a wise choice.
Since Qin Yao wasn't willing to get involved, any attempts to win favor lost their meaning.
Now, Sikong Jian only sent gifts to Qin Yao's family every few days and didn't continue with any small maneuvers.
However, he had no time to think about how to replace Liu Ji's position now.
Just before the Mid-Autumn Festival, news came from Beimang that Princess Huixiang had successfully given birth to a son.
