1344 Let His Majesty Do Whatever He Wants

Chu Jiu looked around the room and, realizing that the Prince was nowhere in sight, asked, “Where’s the Prince?”

“Yin’er’s learning the ropes in advance,” Lu Liangwei replied wearily.

Chu Jiu stared at her in confusion. “What do you mean?”

Zhu Yu poured Lu Liangwei and Chu Jiu each a cup of tea, then smiled and explained, “The Emperor takes him to the imperial study every day.”

Chu Jiu was dumbfounded when she heard the answer. “Isn’t the Prince only four months old?” Was it not too early for him to learn how to manage state affairs?

Lu Liangwei shrugged. “Indeed, but Yin’er’s not exactly against it either, so I’ll just let His Majesty do whatever he wants.”

Hearing this, Chu Jiu decided not to make any further comments.

“By the way, has my mother come back too?” asked Lu Liangwei.

“Yes.” Chu Jiu nodded.

Lu Liangwei was perplexed. “She wrote to me some time ago asking me and Grandmother to plan your marriage. Why did she come back by herself?”

“She missed the Prince and Princesses, so she decided to return early,” Chu Jiu answered honestly.

Lu Liangwei could not help poking fun at her. “I think her main reason for coming back is to plan your marriage, though.”

Chu Jiu was immediately ruffled. “That’s not true. The Duchess really misses the Prince and Princesses because she’s never met them ever since they were born. The Duke feels the same way too—if he’d not been occupied with military tasks, I’m sure he’d have come back with us.”

Seeing how flushed her cheeks were, Lu Liangwei stopped teasing her and grinned. “All right, relax. I was just kidding. I know the truth.”
