As she worked, Nanny Qi told her to take a break, to eat some cakes, drink some water, and rest so as not to tire herself out.
While eating cake, the conversation unintentionally turned to the night His Majesty arrived at the entrance of the Side Hall and the near miss of revealing everything.
Recalling the incident, she looked toward Xiao Linzi, "Eh, Xiao Linzi, weren't you keeping lookout at that time? How is it that His Majesty got into the yard and you didn't come to report?"
Xiao Linzi, who had been wearing a grin, felt that the weather was quite pleasant today, having enjoyed a piece of cake given by his master, was savoring it when he heard the question. His smile instantly froze on his face.
Scratching his head, he said, "Master, I was on the lookout indeed, but before I could report, His Majesty discovered me."
