C31 (2/2)

Even though class was still necessary in the morning, a bunch of kids were looking forward to the holidays with green eyes.

During the break, Ji Fang carefully moved to Wei Zhao's side and whispered, ”Princess, why isn't Mister letting us take a break yet?”

Wei Zhao also felt a bit of toothache as he tapped her on the head with his pen, ”You should learn from him. I heard that mister wants to test us. If the results aren't good, who knows how many big words you'll have to draw.”

Who wouldn't obediently let her draw big words herself? All she had to do was draw, it was more difficult than writing as she pleased. As expected, when Ji Xin heard this, she looked as if she had her teeth pulled out and touched her belly, ”I'm so tired that I'm thin.”

Green Bamboo brought a group of palace maids with a dozen or so boxes of food. Hearing Ji Panpan's words, she giggled. Ji Panpan smiled at her thick-skinned face, then called the others to come over to have some snacks.

The reading partners' tastes were all quite sweet, and Wei Zhao didn't want to travel alone with everyone, so he just ate a piece before stopping.

Violet Bamboo hurriedly entered, ”Princess, His Majesty has summoned you.”

In the imperial study, Emperor Qinghe put down the paper and gently said, ”Tomorrow is the eighth day of the second month, and the palace will bestow porridge upon the meritorious officials. In the past, this matter was handled by Consort Xian, but she's in bad health, so I'll leave it to you to handle it this year. You can ask Lin mama about the rules, how is that?” Wei Zhao readily agreed. Well, this was one of her assignments.

In December, they gathered together to enjoy it. On the 8th day of the 8th month of the 12th lunar month, the Buddha's Ascension Day. Although Wei Zhao was the host, he didn't have to do it himself. On the eighth day, he woke up before dawn and went to the imperial kitchen to watch over the people in the kitchen as they brought yellow rice, white rice, rice, millet, water chestnuts, red cowpea, and jujube paste one by one to her eyes. Afterwards, under the instructions of Senior Servant Lin, she personally scooped up the first cup of water and put it into a big pot. Then, the porridge was placed in a bowl of gold, silver, glass, and agate to worship the Ancestor. Finally, there was the gift of porridge. Although the three master teachers and the three master teachers were at their posts, the various nobles' and marquis' residences were there as well. Wei Zhao only needed to nod at them.

By the time she finished, it was already a quarter of an hour. Lin mama asked respectfully, ”Do you want to rest, Princess?”

Wei Zhao was in high spirits and asked, ”Where is royal father?” After receiving the answer, he ordered many people to fill up the porridge and led them to the Wen Hua Palace to present their treasures.

In the past few years, the Yan family had been able to be ranked among the top in the first class, but this year, they entered the second tier, because they were managed by the princess. Since the princess was young, naturally, the matter of giving out porridge was decided by the king, but this year, General Xuan De's household also gave it to the second tier, which made the servant more thoughtful.

In the early morning of the 23rd day, when the Kitchen King returned to the Heavenly Court to report on his duties, Wei Zhao smiled as he saluted the portrait of the Kitchen King. He then personally took out some candied sugar from his teeth and stuck it to the Kitchen King's mouth, the liveliness in the palace increased day after day, and the emperor shakily gave her many palace lamps, which were the new products of this year's Grand Monastery's craftsmen. The pictures were exquisite and the rest of the palace acted according to the rules.

Wang Taiyuan was an experienced man, he nodded his head and said, ”Sure, this old servant will bring some more over and help the princess dress up the East Palace properly!”

On the 28th of December, Tutor Qian still wasn't on holiday. Even His Majesty couldn't bear to see this anymore. ”After the Tutor returns home to pay his respects, come back to the palace and celebrate the new year together.”

When Wang Taichang heard of this, he looked eagerly at Wei Zhao. Wei Zhao asked hesitantly, ”Great-grandfather also wishes to spend the new year with royal father?” Wang Taichang nodded heavily. The emperor agreed with a smile when he heard Wei Zhao speak. This year, he did not plan to stay with the palace concubine to guard the year. There was nothing bad about accepting the Tutor and Tutor to celebrate the new year together. It's your idea. You have to take care of them. ”

Emperor Qing He had for the first time invited the reading partners of Wei Zhao over. All of the children were wearing new clothes and hats; they were celebrating everywhere.

Wang Taichang sipped a glass of wine and said, ”These are more interesting than singing and dancing.”

When Emperor Qing He heard this, he simply gave the song and dance to the beauties in the imperial harem. The few of them poured themselves a cup of wine as they watched Wei Zhao play with his reading partners and set them on fire.

Emperor Qinghe felt that this year had truly been a pleasant one.

Honored Tutor Qian nodded as he looked at his student. Wei Zhaoji was very charismatic, but he didn't know how to curry favor with a master of arts here. It was really too foolish of him to do so.

Tutor Qian coughed twice. ”Why don't we all match each other?”

The reading partners' strings of bitter faces...
