Yueyao said with a smile: "You ask Gu You to call Brother Shengsheng and the others over, I'll be ready soon." Yueyao has always felt guilty towards the children. However, discussing this guilt won't change much, so she could only try to spend more time with the children in the future.
Yueyao dined with the four children and then accompanied them to do their homework in the evening. Only after the children fell asleep did Yueyao return to her own bed.
Having napped too much in the afternoon, Yueyao wasn't sleepy at all.
Xiang Wei asked: "Madam, what did the Emperor ask you to paint, that took so long?"
Yueyao shook her head and said: "Don't ask about this, even if you did, I couldn't tell you." Actually, Yueyao was also puzzled about it! She instinctively felt that this matter was not simple, and hence was unwilling to mention it. It wasn't that Yueyao didn't trust Xiang Wei, but she felt that the fewer people who knew about it, the less risk there would be.
