They all knew the Heir of Prince Yu and couldn't understand why he would be at the Regent Prince Mansion.

"The Regent Prince has been very busy lately and is often away from home. He asked me to help look after the young prince and tutor him in his studies."
The three elderly ministers had a sudden realization. 'Ah, so that's why!'
Having been instructed by his mother beforehand, Li Xun sat perfectly straight, like a miniature adult.
He asked in a prim and proper tone,
"May I ask why you three gentlemen have come to see my father?"
Being questioned this way by a five-year-old child felt rather odd to the three elderly ministers.
Fan Xi, the Left Minister, spoke.
