Chapter 564: Chapter 468: Plucking up courage! Afraid of not matching up to him!_2

Song Qing would arrive at the East Palace to tutor Taotao every morning at the hour of si, but he always came a quarter of an hour early.

Song Qing was personally appointed by the Emperor to be Taotao's enlightenment teacher, a position many coveted but could never attain.

When Shen Chuwei and Lady Tao hurried over, they quickened their pace as they neared the Study Room, then simultaneously slowed as they approached the door.

After Chu Lingfeng walked out of the Study Room with Taotao, Shen Chuwei had Chun Xi take them to snack on some fruit, then turned to Lady Tao, "Do you need me to accompany you inside?"

Lady Tao shook her head, "No need, I'll go in by myself."

Shen Chuwei nodded, "Alright, I'll wait outside for you. Good luck."

Lady Tao gathered her courage and walked in.

Shen Chuwei took out a handful of sunflower seeds and started cracking them open, thinking about how much better it would be in the modern era, not having to be so secretive.
