To savor the delicacies, Long YiXuan not only changed how he addressed others to close the distance but also planned to stick around and not leave.

Luo Jingyao reminded him with a chuckle, "Fifth Prince, the Academy rules dictate that all teachers and students dine in the Academy's cafeteria, without exceptions. Moreover, Ninth Miss only cooks for family members. even if there are guests she only cooks occasionally. Since Fifth Prince isn't Ninth Miss's family, it's naturally impossible for him to eat her cooking every day."

"The key point is, the Emperor definitely won't agree to the Fifth Prince attending classes here," Situ Wenzheng added.

It is a royal edict of the Dong Chu dynasty that princes under the age of fifteen must not enter the Imperial Court, to prevent princes from forming factions and engaging in private manipulations that could endanger the state.

Of course, Prince Chen is an exception.

After all, at that time Dong Chu was facing a coalition of over a million troops from three nations, with many generals already dead in battle, which is why the Emperor made an exception and ordered Prince Chen to lead troops into battle.

As Long YiXuan was not yet thirteen, he was currently enrolled at Chujing Academy.

"Even if I can't eat Ninth Miss's dishes every day, at least it's possible during rest days," said Long YiXuan, his eyes shifting between Long Xuanmo and Yang Mengchen with a glint of shrewdness in his gaze. "As for Father Emperor, Old Hai is serving as the dean here, Father Emperor will surely not object once he knows."

He believed that sooner or later, he would address her as 'Third Imperial Sister-in-Law,' which would make them family. The future Third Imperial Sister-in-Law was intelligent and capable, not to mention her repertoire of delicious cuisine. He was very fond of her.

Those who were clever smiled silently, while those who had yet to catch on thought it made sense.

The Yang family wanted nothing to do with the Royal family. Hearing Long YiXuan's words, they were all deeply upset but dared not express their anger.

Long Xuanmo's dark eyes followed Yang Mengchen's movements, his cold and charming face revealing a hint of subtle warmth as the corners of his lips curved into a slight smile, clearly in a good mood.

Yang Mengchen naturally felt the intensity of his gaze, far from being insensible. Nonetheless, he did his utmost to ignore the faint stirrings within him and sat down at his seat with a composed demeanor.

After lunch, Old Hai and the other elders went for their afternoon rest, while the Yang family members busied themselves with their own tasks.

Yang Mengchen was preparing to head to the medicine workshop to make the pills for the Eldest Princess when Luo Jingrui timely stopped her and presented her with two brocade boxes.

"These are a gift from Jingfan and me. Do you like them?"

"Thank you, both brothers. No matter what you give me, I like it," Yang Mengchen replied, accepting the boxes and opening them to find various rare, unique, and precious items. "Please, brothers, no more scouring for gifts for me. My storeroom is nearly overflowing."

Whenever Grandma Luo and Aunty Luo saw something nice, they would buy it without a second thought and insist on giving it to her, allowing no refusals. Big Brother Luo and Second Brother Luo also sent items every month, and together with the occasional gifts from Long Xuanmo and others, the small storeroom was indeed becoming too cramped.

"As long as you like it." Finally having a sister to their liking, the three Luo brothers wished to give all the nice things to her.

Closing the lid, Yang Mengchen handed the brocade boxes to Hai Tang, "I haven't yet congratulated Big Brother Luo on being conferred the title of Princely Heir.

From now on, being the sister of the Duke of Anguo Mansion's Princely Heir means no one can bully me anymore, right?" When the present Emperor conferred the title of Duke of Anguo to Uncle Luo, he also bestowed the title of Princely Heir upon Big Brother Luo.

"Even if I weren't the Princely Heir, no one would dare to bully you!" Luo Jingrui stated emphatically.

Ninth Miss is the darling of the whole family, and if anyone dares to bully her, they would never let it slide, even if it meant paying any price.

The Luo family has been a medical family with hundreds of years of history. From the time of the Founding Ancestor to their generation, even though they had made considerable contributions to the Imperial Court, they never sought titles but remained prideful, unchallenged by anyone, so the Luo family cared little for such honors.
