Tianshi Xue was not sure whether or not the Emperor ignoring her was a good thing or not. He did not even address her while they were dining. It seemed like the old man could not stop working either as he was still talking to his sons about the matters of the state.
Now she knew that Prince Qui would be indisposed for the rest of the afternoon as he would be tagging along his father in other state matters meetings.
"Around what time are you going to be available again?" she asked him when they stepped out.
"Why?"
"I want to know just how much fun time I can have to myself."
The corner of Prince Qui's lips turned upwards. "You need not to worry about me until dinner. You won't even see my shadow."
"Good to know," she said. "Well, then, I'll be on my way."
The prince did not even say a farewell and just strode the other way. Howin detached herself from the wall. "What are we going to do today, Howin?"
"Pardon, Your Highness?"
