In the following days, Meng Qingzhou's life was quite fulfilling.

He would wake up in the morning to cook, feed the dogs, water the flowers, and plant vegetables. When he had time, he would share his insights on swordsmanship with Su Qingqiu.

At noon, he would have lunch with Dongfang Liuli. Meng Qingzhou noticed that she was coming home more frequently; whenever she had free time, she would rush back.

In the afternoon, he would discuss and perfect the Empress's birthday banquet etiquette with Wu Die.
