“Alright. Junjun had a really good time tonight, I think he’s going to feel like crying when he sees the homework that you left him tomorrow.”

“He’s not a normal child. He has more responsibilities than anyone else. He has to work harder than normal people Chuchu, don’t pamper him.”

Zhao Chuc.hu didn’t what to respond.

Since when did she pamper Xie Jun?

Junjun, good luck.

The next day…

Just as Zhao Chuchu had expected, after eating breakfast happily, when Xie Jun saw Zhao Chuchu bring over the homework, his expression immediately changed. He looked like he was almost going to cry.

“I thought my brother might be feeling generous today and let me play for the day. It turns out I’m just dreaming. Wahhh, he must be jealous because I held your hand yesterday. That’s why he’s punishing me.” Xie Jun pouted his lips and said, “Sis, my brother gets jealous so easily.”

Zhao Chuchu didn’t know how to respond.

She thought, “Junjun, are you sure it’s good for you to be so precocious?

He would turn 11 years old this September.

Although Xie Jun complained profusely about the homework, he still took the books and returned to his study room obediently.

Xie Jun was very disciplined when it came to studying. He didn’t need Zhao Chuchu’s supervision.

On top of that, he was learning how to manage a country. Zhao Chuchu couldn’t really help him with that. After all, Zhoa Chuchu came from a different era, and many of the theories from that era weren’t applicable now.

Zhao Chuchu still had to tend to her own business. After telling Xie Heng that she was heading out, she went to the shop that she purchased to check on the renovation progress. She also brought the machine blueprints that she drew the day before to the skilled carpenters that she hired so they could help her build them.

A short while after Zhao Chuchu left, the Third Prince arrived at their house.

The Third Prince looked around for a bit outside before knocking on the door.

Xie Jun came out upon hearing him.

He remembered what Zhao Chuchu told him. When Xie Heng and Zhao Chuchu weren’t home, he had to ask who was outside the door and identify them before opening the door.

“Who’s there?” Xie Jun looked out from the gap between the door and the door frame.

“It’s me, Third Brother.” The Third Prince saw Xie Jun from the gap. Hecouldn’t help but laugh a little.

Xie Jun saw that it was the Third Prince, so he opened the door to let him in.

“Third Brother, why are you here?”

“I didn’t know that you were coming with your brother yesterday, so I didn’t prepare a first-meeting gift for you. I came here to deliver the gift today.”

The Third Prince passed the box that he was holding to Xie Jun. “Your brother told me that you’re studying, so I got you the four treasures from the study room.”

“Thank you, Third Brother.” Xie Jun took the gift with a big smile He really liked these items. He said, “But my brother said that I’m not allowed to take other people’s things.”

“I’m not other people.” The Third Prince cut him off and then asked, “Are you the only person at home?

“Yes, my brother went to the academy, and sis went out for something as well. I’m studying at home alone.”

“Am I disturbing you?

“No. But Third Brother, my brother left me a lot of homework, I’m afraid I can’t accompany you for very long. He will punish me if I don’t complete my homework.”

“That’s fine. I don’t really have anything to do right now. How about I do your homework with you? I will look out for your brother.”

“Really?”

“Yup. ”

“That’s great. Come with me, Third Brother.”

Perhaps it was because of their blood bond, but Xie Jun seemed to trust the Third Prince unconditionally.

It was an inexplicable sense of trust and faith, just like how he felt toward Xie Heng.

The Third Prince looked at Xie Jun with a smile on his face.

His main objective for going there was to confirm whether Xie Jun was his brother. Although he was about 80 percent sure, he still needed to verify some details.

Xie Jun led the Third Prince to the study room. He didn’t have his guard up against the Third Prince at all.

The Third Prince glanced at Xie Jun’s homework and realized that everything Xie Jun was learning was related to managing a country.

“Has Zizhao been teaching you these things all along?

“Not just these things. He left me lots of homework. Here, I need to do these as well. ”

Xie Jun showed Third Prince the rest of his homework.

Vocabulary, dictation, poem-writing, composition… Xie Jun learned everything that scholars studied. He just had to learn about managing a country in addition to those things.

The Third Prince thought about what he saw.

He did a comprehensive investigation of Xie Heng’s background. He was very sure that Xie Heng had never left Yuanjiang County before this, and neither did his parents. They definitely did not head north at any point in time. Xie Heng shouldn’t know about Xie Jun’s real identity.

“Third Brother, what’s wrong? Is there something wrong with the homework that my brother gave me?

Xie Jun’s voice pulled the Third Prince out of his train of thought.

The Third Prince shook his head and said, “No, I just feel that your brother is a really talented man.”

“Of course, if my brother wasn’t blind last time, he would have attended the Imperial Examinations a long time ago. He might even be a government official by now.”
