Chapter 1195 - 1018, Seven Years
This New Year in Lailiang Capital was the most delightful one Xiao Moreng had ever experienced, free from the constraints of parents and the shackles of various interests and rules. As long as it didn’t involve danger, he could play however he wanted.
Daozi followed behind Xiao Moreng’s every step, both of them thoroughly enjoying themselves each day.
During the New Year festivities, Xiao Mokuan, Xiao Mobao, and Xiao Moxu often came to play at the Prince Residence too, only Xiao Moqing was restricted at home by the old Madam An.
Upon knowing this, those who were aware could only shake their heads in speechless disapproval.
Xiao Moqing, as the son of the Crown Prince, had come to Xiliang to pay respects to the Grand Secretary on behalf of his father. It was foolish beyond measure for the An Family not to allow him to enter the gate of the Prince Residence.
After the New Year, the An Family was set to return to the capital, and of course, Xiao Moqing would be going with them.
Before leaving, the An Family at least gave face by sending Xiao Moqing over to the Prince Residence to bid farewell to Gu Jian, accompanied by their bodyguard.
"You’re returning to the capital?"
Being a child’s affairs, Daohua did not tell Daozi. Upon learning of Xiao Moqing’s impending departure, Daozi was quite surprised.
Xiao Moqing had heard plenty of disparaging remarks from Old Madam An about the Wei Prince Residence. Facing Daozi, he couldn’t help feeling some grudges, "Indeed, I’ll soon be able to leave this godforsaken Xiliang."
Daozi’s expression turned somewhat displeased, "If you dislike it here, then don’t come back in the future."
