Hongxin chuckled: "If Imperial Father is free, shall we leave together? It's not good for me to stay long either, so I will have dinner with Mother and go back?"
Fourth Master glared: "I still have memorials to review!"
Only then did Hongxin leave, chuckling.
In private moments, you couldn't really tell they were a royal father and son. They were as comfortable as an ordinary family.
Even after Hongxin left, Fourth Master still had a hint of a smile on his lips.
Reviewing the memorials even went faster than usual.
Hongshi felt indescribable as he walked back to the Princes' quarters.
He envied his fifth brother who dared to say anything in front of Imperial Father. This confidence was something he truly lacked.
He was always afraid that saying one wrong thing would make Imperial Father displeased.
Nine-year-old Hongshi seriously contemplated the word "confidence" for the first time.
He lacked confidence.
