“What?” Emperor Jiawen thought that he had misheard something and subconsciously asked again, “You want to enter Tian Lu Academy?”

Chu Liuyue nodded. “Yes. Tian Lu Academy recruits students annually in January, so I would like to ask Your Majesty to give me a chance.”

Emperor Jiawen looked at her with a complicated gaze.

“This isn’t hard, but Tian Lu Academy’s assessments are very difficult. Are you sure you want to go? You need to know that those old fellas won’t give you an easy way out just because of me.”

Chu Liuyue smiled lightly. “I know that. I just want a chance to be assessed.”

Emperor Jiawen stared at her and sighed after confirming that she was not joking. “Since you want it, I’ll grant you your wish. However, it’s all up to you if you can get in or not.”

Chu Liuyue went on her knees and bowed. “Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness.”

Emperor Jiawen waved his hands. “Okay. You must be tired today as well. You should return home to rest first. Chu Ning, accompany her and take care of her.”

Chu Liuyue had no intention of staying any longer after settling the most important task, so she left with Chu Ning happily.

Only when the duo’s figures disappeared into the night sky outside the palace did the stiff and cold atmosphere in the palace start to warm up. However, nobody dared to say much after all that had happened that night.

A happy birthday party became suppressed and boring.

Rong Jin closed his eyes and rubbed his glabella. Logically speaking, he should be very relaxed after settling his marriage agreement with Chu Liuyue. However, his heart was still weighed down by a rock, making him very unhappy.

He had initially planned everything well, but he did not know how it ended up like this. He did not know how the people in the Imperial City would talk about him after today.

Although this wasn’t a big deal, the most important thing was that his father was most likely unhappy with him.

Chu Xianmin currently felt even worse than Rong Jin. She sat at her own seat with an ever-changing expression, but her entire body felt numb as her mind blanked.

Chu Liuyue’s words today had completely ruined her reputation. Who would care if these kinds of incidents were real or fake?

She did not expect that she would get herself into trouble instead of teaching Chu Liuyue a lesson.

All sorts of gazes and stares landed on her, making her very restless. She just wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.

“Ahem” Rong Xiu coughed once again.

Emperor Jiawen knitted his brows. “Why is your cough getting worse?”

Rong Xiu waved his hands. “I’m not ahem”

Before he could finish his next sentence, he started coughing again, and his face became even paler.

Emperor Jiawen commanded determinedly, “Go back and rest now. It was so hard for you to get better at Mingyue Tianshan, but you’re already in this condition after coming back for a month. What will you do in the future? If your illness relapses, I’ll convict the people in your mansion.”

Rong Xiu smiled helplessly and stood up.

Yan Qing, who was behind him, immediately helped him put on a coat.

“I’ll take my leave first.” Rong Xiu then looked at Rong Jin. “Brother, I’ve already sent your birthday gift to your mansion. I’ll make up for the lack of company today.”

Rong Jin forced a smile. “Seventh Brother, you’re too kind. Your health is very important.”

Rong Xiu then turned and left.

After he left, Rong Jiu said that he had to handle military tasks and left as well.

The atmosphere that was originally weird became even more awkward and cold after the two people departed.
