Shanguan Zu Jin's POV
The empress is not here yet. I guess there's an issue that took her time. I wonder what kind of troubles she needs to solve from her father's harem.
I decided to check my sibling's situation. I want to know if they're learning something from the task that Eunuch Liu gave to them.
He's no longer with me because he needs to check the things that my brother did while we were attending the meeting.
I ask Xu Jiaxu to run some errands for me. I walked around and tried to spy on my younger siblings.
I took a turn and finally saw them. They're currently helping the servants dry the grains on the ground. The sun was quite hot today.
"Have you heard the rumors about the empress?" one of them asks.
My siblings were busy putting the grains back in their sacks. I guess they will dry another batch, which is stacked on their right side.
