Old Mu returned home at dawn, informing Gu Ling and Su Liang that no assassin had appeared in the palace last night.
Su Liang asked Old Mu to get some rest. Cen Man went back to keep an eye on Min Rui at the Min Mansion, even though Min Rui seemed incapable of doing anything, but his father-in-law might try to find him again.
Gu Ling was home, and he made breakfast together with Su Liang.
After breakfast, Ji Xiaoshu said that he had promised Old Master Qin that he would go climbing trees at Duke Qin's mansion today, but also promised Uncle Emperor that he would go play in the palace today. What should he do?
"You choose one, and I'll go to the other one," Zhengzheng said calmly.
Ji Xiaoshu immediately shook his head, "That won't work, it will give me away. Can I go to Old Master Qin's in the morning, and then go play in the palace in the afternoon?"
