To the left of the emperor's courtyard, through a secluded path, after walking a hundred paces one would arrive at the small courtyard where Concubine Liu resided.

[Grandpa seems to be getting promoted! Wow!]

[Awesome Grandpa, Grandpa stood up, and today he even answered the emperor father's questions correctly.]

Xiao Chuchu was being lovingly embraced by Old Madam Liu, as they watched the live broadcast from the emperor's side.

She spent 3 credits for today's live broadcast.

She found that the more she watched live broadcasts, the higher the cost for each viewing, increasing by 1 credit every time.

But now, she was already a big credit holder. With her birth mother's new position and the emperor father's fondness for this little princess, she had been rewarded with many credits.

She had now accumulated 395 credits and was planning to save up to have enough for ten draws in the lottery.

The system said this way, the chances of drawing an SSR could be increased by 10%.

[Maybe it's the butterfly effect I brought, with mother's promotion, I get to see Grandpa.]

[Just now mother said, 'It's only after becoming a mother that one understands a mother's thoughts, what one does is related to one's position', inadvertently enlightening Grandpa.]

[This led to Grandpa's change today, with his fluent responses in court.]

Xiao Chuchu guessed.

Old Madam Liu, who was holding her, couldn't help but smile.

What enlightenment?

Your grandpa simply heard the voice in your adorable little heart!

Concubine Liu was embroidering a golden carp belly warmer for her daughter. Under her needles, the pink golden carp came alive. Hearing her daughter's inner voice, the corners of her mouth curved upwards as well.

Her father had avoided a disaster and was even promoted?

Wonderful, it was fortunate that she heard her daughter's inner voice and reminded her father in time.

Her father was also quite smart, he understood.

She had been worried that with her father's straightforward nature, he might not understand, which is why she had been a little distracted while embroidering the belly warmer.

[Wah, my emperor father is actually sending Grandpa to the Censorate!]

Old Madam Liu and Concubine Liu pricked up their ears in silence.

The Censorate?

The emperor was sending him to be a censor, to supervise all officials?

Being transferred from the Imperial Academy to such a position feared by all officials, this was indeed a great honor!

[Grandpa is so moved that he's about to cry, his eyes are red.]

[This is Grandpa's first time experiencing a promotion. After serving as a county magistrate for three years, he was transferred back to the capital to the Imperial Academy, but he wasn't happy with that position.]

[Although the Imperial Academy was relaxing, it was far removed from the people's livelihood and state affairs. Grandpa could only watch as his students went out to become officials and benefit the people, while he couldn't do the same and could only envy them.]

[Ah, now that he hears he can go to the Censorate, Grandpa can't help but cry.]

Old Madam Liu and Concubine Liu listened, their faces filled with excitement as well.
