Chapter 1181 - 1004, National Defense Academy
On the ninth day of the ninth month, the Chongyang Festival, Xiao Yeyang hosted a banquet for the officials at the Prince Residence.
While Xiao Yeyang was busy receiving a few Magistrates, the An and Du families gathered together and went to see the ’amusement park’ that the royal grandchildren had mentioned.
"Indulgence leads to the loss of aspiration!"
Watching Xiao Moqing and the others frolicking in the courtyard, Lord An shook his head: "Prince Weiyuan and Princess Consort Xiao are too indulgent with the children. If this continues, they will surely raise a few profligate siblings who only know pleasure and enjoyment."
Lord Du remained silent, observing the facilities in the courtyard, he felt it was unproblematic; after all, children are lively and energetic, it’s good for them to express their natural tendencies.
Lord An looked at several people from the Du family: "What do you think? The royal grandchildren have been in Xiliang for more than two months, just letting them play and frolic in the Prince Residence every day?"
As he spoke, he scoffed.
"Every day they come over, just to pay their respects to the Prince of the National Defense Academy at noon and have lunch with him. I see that the royal grandchildren have almost become playmates of Xiao Moxi."
Lord Du replied with a smile: "Lord An, you’re being too severe. Even if the royal grandchildren didn’t come, the Little Prince can still play just fine by himself."
Lord An gave Lord Du a sidelong glance and sneered inwardly, the second Prince could not compete with the Crown Prince in Beijing, so the Du family immediately ingratiated themselves with Prince Weiyuan upon arriving in Xiliang, this eager attitude truly sickens me.
