Liang Chongyue felt a little regretful the moment she said this. Fei He was an orphan and had been training in Sifangtai since he could remember. How could he have had the chance to act naughty? What was she asking?

“Does drugging a dog count?”

Liang Chongyue was pondering how much Minglang resembled her when she suddenly heard these words. She looked up and saw Fei He starting to talk seriously about his so-called naughty moments.

"Since we were little, there were only guards and dogs watching outside the camp. The training was too hard, so we wanted to escape. We stole some sleeping pills and put them in the food of the guards and dogs, hoping to escape."

"What a pity that you didn't get out?"

Seeing His Majesty's determined look, Fei He nodded:

"Those secret guards weren't affected by the drugs at all. The dogs, however, fell asleep in droves. At the time, we all thought it was the drugs, but later we learned that the secret guards of Sifangtai had become immune to these common drugs and poisons before they were deployed."

The training at Sifangtai is extremely rigorous. Injuries occur every day, and the sleeping room is filled with the smell of various medicines all year round. Only those who can survive are worthy of becoming Sifangtai's secret guards.

A trace of pain flashed in Fei He's eyes as he recalled the past, but it quickly disappeared and was still noticed by Liang Chongyue.

The training at Sifangtai is not something that ordinary people can endure. There is not even a list of how many people died during this period.

The people who train them only care about their success and don’t care whether they can withstand it or not. After all, if this batch dies, there will be another batch.

The thing that is most abundant in this world is children who cannot survive.

Liang Chongyue's chopsticks started moving again, and Fei He understood that this meant that His Majesty wanted to skip the topic.

He said no more and focused on picking out the fish bones for His Majesty. He waited until His Majesty finished eating before he started eating.

This was not the first time Liang Chongyue had seen Fei He eat so slowly. He was completely different from his usual self.

However, since he was born in Sifangtai, this eating speed is understandable.

"Once the Qingyu Pavilion is rebuilt, I plan to let you resume your old job."

Following His Majesty's side these days, with His Majesty's explicit instructions, Fei He has reestablished the connection with the former Sifangtai, but the headquarters was bombed, and the Sifangtai is still there.

"I know there are many immoral things happening in Sifangtai, but I don't want to get involved. I just want the results."

The Dark Guards organization itself does not have much of a moral bottom line. Liang Chongyue wanted the result to be that Fei He could just copy all of Sifangtai's systems. As for the changes Fei He wanted to make privately, she just wanted the result.

"Yes, I understand. I will never let Your Majesty down again."

After dinner tonight, Liang Chongyue has been waiting for her mother to send someone to look for her.

The Queen Mother dotes on Minglang even more than she loved her in the past. Liang Chongyue has already prepared for the Queen Mother to not allow Minglang to live in Zhaoyang Palace because she feels sorry for her young age.

It was not until the evening, when Ping An came to report that the lights in the Cining Palace had been turned off, that Liang Chongyue went to bed.

The next morning, Liang Chongyue went to the Cining Palace after the morning court session. As soon as he entered, he saw his mother having breakfast with her five children.

The scene was extremely heartwarming. Liang Chongyue watched as the curve of his mother's mouth never faded. He didn't know for a moment whether she was looking for a study partner for Minglang or a granddaughter for his mother.

"Cough cough."

Liang Chongyue coughed twice and strode forward. Everyone who was eating just now stopped and looked at her.

"Your son pays his respects to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother live long and happily."

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed."

"Everyone, please get up. There is no need to be formal."

Liang Chongyue walked quickly to his mother's side and greeted her. Seeing that there was no place for him next to his mother, he stopped Jiang Jiaoyun who was about to stand up.

"I've already had breakfast, take your time eating, I'll come and take a look."

After saying that, he looked at Minglang and could tell at a glance whose idea it was.

But seeing his mother and these children happy, Liang Chongyue had nothing to say.

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, she waved to Minglang and called her aside.

Liang Minglang thought that the Queen Mother was going to ask her how she slept last night, so a handkerchief was pressed against her mouth.

"You don't even eat carefully, and you get food all over your mouth. Your Imperial Grandmother is a grandmother after all. You can go out and play with your friends. Safety is the most important thing. I don't care about other things, but please don't bother your Imperial Grandmother too much."

"I'll assign some more people to look after you later. Go to bed early at night and don't stay out too late. The palace maids can't control you. But if word gets to me, I'll punish the palace maids who follow you."

This sentence stopped Liang Minglang from sharing the interesting story with his mother. Thinking that he might face the Queen Mother's reprimand after speaking out, and that the people around her might also be punished, Liang Minglang decided to keep his mouth shut.

"Did you hear that clearly?"

Looking at Minglang's big eyes moving around, she knew that he was thinking of a solution again. Last night, Liang Chongyue reflected for a long time and finally felt that Minglang was more naughty than when she was a child. This was not just genetic.

After all, she had too few children, so Minglang didn't feel any sense of urgency.

"I heard it clearly, Queen Mother, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I will never do it again after what happened yesterday."

After Liang Minglang finished speaking, he reached out and touched the Queen Mother's belly. It was not bulging at all, so she definitely hadn't eaten yet.

"Today we practiced martial arts together. Sister Li was having her first practice and she was a little overwhelmed, so the Empress Dowager took us to dinner first. I've asked the kitchen to make another portion. It should be ready by now and will be sent to the Yangxin Palace soon."

Liang Chongyue had almost forgotten how many times Minglang had been thinking about her. Looking at her chubby little face, he couldn't help but reach out and pinch it. She didn't hide, but just stood there obediently and waited for her to pinch enough before he reached out and rubbed her pinched face.

"Okay, go back and have dinner. I'm leaving first. Remember to be good."

Liang Chongyue rubbed Minglang's head and watched her go in before leaving.

When people returned to the Yangxin Palace, breakfast also arrived.

"Arrange a few people to serve Minglang, and one for each of your study companions. Remember to choose them carefully."

Ping An accepted the order and left. Since no one was there to eat with him, Liang Chongyue simply asked Fei He to have dinner with him.

They were all her favorite foods, and Liang Chongyue accidentally ate too much.

After eating, he didn't want to deal with government affairs at all. He just stood up and prepared to walk around the imperial garden to digest the food.

"Your Majesty, Lord Chai requests an audience."

Liang Chongyue had just stood up and had not yet reached the door of the Yangxin Palace when Little Leo came in, followed by Chai Shuo.

There was a hint of pink on his fair little face. It was already autumn, but why did he look like it was spring?
