The two little ones, surrounded by disciples of the Imperial Advisor's Hall, couldn't stop singing.
The Emperor suddenly felt a bit conflicted.
What happened to the supposed wailing? And what about the need to look for her imperial uncle as soon as it got dark?
Had the little girl completely forgotten that she had an uncle?
If no one interrupted her, she would probably keep swaying her head and singing happily all the way until tomorrow!
The Emperor snorted coldly, “Humph, I’ve never seen her so playful before!”
It was already dark, and she was still having so much fun that she didn’t think of going home!
Zhang Dequan said with a smile, “It’s rare for the Little County Princess to find such a playmate.”
The Emperor chuckled, “Did she not have enough playmates before?”
Zhang Dequan smiled, “It’s not the same.”
Her previous playmates were all young masters and misses from n.o.ble families, carefully selected for their good temper and gentle disposition. They were taught proper manners at home and knew that Shangguan Xue was an imperial relative, a county princess. They couldn’t risk upsetting Shangguan Xue, or else their parents would bear the consequences if the Emperor got angry.
Who would dare to act freely under those circ.u.mstances?
They were always overly cautious, as a result, the Little County Princess didn’t find much joy in playing with them.
But Little Jing Kong didn’t know the Little County Princess’s ident.i.ty, thinking she was just an ordinary child, so he played with her without any reservations.
In truth, even if Little Jing Kong knew her background, he still wouldn’t have cared. Back in the State of Zhao, he was friends with the seventh prince, Qin Chuyu, and the State of Zhao’s Emperor never used status to restrict Little Jing Kong, so he was used to it.
Moreover, with the way Gu Jiao raised him at home, he only knew how to treat others with sincerity, not how to look at people with bias.
The Emperor stood in the most noticeable spot.
Once the little one saw him, she should have come running over.
But she didn’t.
The Little County Princess happily kept singing, not even glancing in the Emperor’s direction.
For the first time, the Emperor was completely ignored by the little one.
It was Little Jing Kong who first noticed Gu Jiao and immediately stopped his catchy song.
Earlier, when Xiao Heng picked up Little Jing Kong, he had explained their new situation to him. Little Jing Kong already knew that his bad brother-in-law had a.s.sumed a new ident.i.ty.
He wasn’t surprised at all, his adaptability was incredible.
It was just that in front of outsiders, he had to restrain his affection for JiaoJiao.
“Jing Kong, why did you stop singing?” The Little County Princess also paused.
Little Jing Kong gave a simple "Oh," then raised his hand to point at the sky, “Look, the moon’s already out. It’s time for us to go home.”
The Little County Princess looked up, then nodded her little head, “Then we’ll sing again tomorrow!”
As soon as she said that, the Little County Princess hopped off the steps and darted towards the Emperor like a young swallow.
The Emperor’s expression finally softened a bit as he opened his arms slightly, ready to catch the little one.
But to his surprise, she ran right past him without stopping.
“Teacher!”
The Little County Princess rushed over to Gu Jiao and very politely bowed in greeting.
The Emperor, whose wrinkles were twitching in anger: “...”
......
Little Jing Kong had been brought to the Imperial Advisor's Hall by the Little County Princess, and now that she was leaving, she naturally offered to take him back as well.
Little Jing Kong waved his hand, “No need, no need, my sister will come to the Imperial Advisor's Hall to pick me up in a bit.”
“Oh, I was hoping we could go back together. Well, I’ll head off then! Goodbye!”
“Goodbye!”
The two little ones bid each other farewell.
Little County Princess had spent a joyful and fulfilling day, walking back with a spring in her step.
She had completely forgotten the reason she had come to the Imperial Advisor's Hall in the first place.
Just as the Emperor, with a dark expression, was about to remind her, she flopped backward, arms and legs sprawled, and fell asleep on the soft couch of the carriage.
She had been playing all day without an afternoon nap. Being a little kid sure was exhausting.
The Emperor: “…”
On the other side, after trailing behind Gu Jiao for a while in the side room, Little Jing Kong realized it was time for him to leave.
With his arms crossed and a proud look on his face, he snorted and gave Xiao Heng a sideways glance, “But can you still go back to the academy now? How about you excuse me from cla.s.s and let me stay here instead?”
That way, he could be with JiaoJiao every day! Wuhaha!
He was so clever!
The little guy was so smug that he started tapping his feet in excitement.
Since Xiao Heng had now taken on the ident.i.ty of Shangguan Qing, it was true that he couldn’t return to the academy, as disappearing for an entire day would easily raise suspicion.
Xiao Heng could, of course, choose to take a few days off for both him and Little Jing Kong, but he didn’t do that.
“Children shouldn’t be inconsistent in their studies.” Xiao Heng said as he pulled out a set of uniforms from Canglan Women’s Academy from his bundle, which he had picked up at Linglong Pavilion on his way to fetch Little Jing Kong.
He held the clothes and approached Gu Chengfeng.
Gu Chengfeng’s heart skipped a beat, “What is it?”
Xiao Heng pointed to Little Jing Kong, “You’re going to be his sister.”
Gu Chengfeng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Why me!
Gu Chengfeng refused, “I—I’m not the same shape as you; I’m not as tall.”
Xiao Heng hummed in response, calmly turning around and pulling out a pair of ancient-style platform shoes from his bundle.
Gu Chengfeng: “…”
——Thus began Gu Chengfeng’s grueling life of attending school during the day and working hard at night (performing opera).
......
After leaving the Imperial Advisor's Hall, w.a.n.g Xu rushed straight to the imperial palace. He had been ordered to investigate the case and had the authority to mobilize the eunuchs in the imperial palace.
He began by checking with the Twelve Supervisory Offices. Any eunuch who had worn that type of fabric had to undergo inspection by the Commandery Office.
w.a.n.g Xu sat in the main hall of the Left Commandery Office, with the head eunuchs of the Twelve Supervisory Offices lined up in front of him.
Officially, these twelve head eunuchs were not supposed to know martial arts, but whether they truly did or not wasn’t for them to decide.
w.a.n.g Xu wanted to verify it himself.
For someone to have such impressive qinggong skills, they must also have considerable internal force. There were two ways to test if someone had internal force: one was by observing their strikes, and the other was to directly inject one's own internal force into their meridians.
The latter method would cause the person being tested a certain amount of pain. The weaker their martial arts, the more painful it would be.
At this point, he had to set aside such concerns in order to solve the case.
He fixed his gaze on the group, saying, “Gentlemen, I apologize for the inconvenience.”
He started with the head eunuch of the Office of Ceremonial Affairs. Gripping the eunuch's wrist, he infused his internal force into the other's body, causing a trickle of sweat to form on the eunuch’s forehead.
His palm had calluses, indicating some martial training, but his internal force wasn't deep enough. He wasn’t the one who a.s.sa.s.sinated Shangguan Yan.

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:
Description:
In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the s.h.i.+ family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succ.u.mb to darkness amidst hards.h.i.+p and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.
When s.h.i.+ Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the s.h.i.+ family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.
The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.
From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.
***
Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like s.h.i.+ Dai.
After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"
s.h.i.+ Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"
s.h.i.+ Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”
s.h.i.+ Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
