He Had Illusions

Auntie Lan was in the hall directing some servants to carry out their assignments. Jing Xi came and asked, "Auntie Lan, what shall I do now?"

"Here you go. These are His Highness' daily routines. You should keep them in mind."

Auntie Lan gave her a sheet and Jing Xi put it in her bag.

Then Auntie Lan took her to a room. "This is your room. You can stay here so as to take good care of the prince."

Auntie Lan had assigned her a room in the palace.

It was right next to the prince's room so that she could attend to him easily.

The rooms in the royal palace were all spacious and luxurious. But Jing Xi could not stay here. "I'm truly sorry, Auntie Lan. I'm afraid I cannot stay overnight. I have to take care of my husband and kid. They cannot live by themselves. I can only be here for the day."
