Daozi and Xiao Moreng, Xiao Mokuan all returned to Qianqing Palace with bruises on their faces. The emperor did not ask much about their fight but ordered the palace maid to apply medicine for them.
"Fourth brother, who made the first move earlier? Even with Grandfather here, they dared to cause trouble; they are really gutsy."
Daozi had a split on the corner of his mouth, and it hurt whenever he spoke.
Xiao Moreng, hearing Daozi's question, glanced at the silent Xiao Mokuan with his head lowered: "I didn't see it. Everyone was shoving; somehow, it turned into a fight."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mokuan's eyes flickered, and his tense expression quickly relaxed.
Daozi grinned: "I bet it was Seventh Brother who started it; he loves to stir up trouble the most."
Xiao Moreng interrupted Daozi: "Alright, since Grandfather didn't ask about it, let's just drop it. We all got involved, so if there's any blame to share, we're all at fault, not just one person."
