A-Yuan handed over the bunny to Wen Ning when he came over to get it, smiling. Clearly, he liked rabbits and knew how to take care of them since he had been more willing to be improper than to let the rabbit possibly fall.
A-Yuan followed what Wen Ning told him to, the servants now at ease that the young boy was learning how to act properly. In the middle of it, they could faintly hear a woman calling for the Eleventh Prince down the hall so the Empress gave a subtle nod of her head to one of the eunuchs who left quietly to go get Jianshi's nanny. They returned a few moments later, the nanny bowing and moving to stand by the door.
To be fair, WangJi would have been fine with Wen Ning teaching his son proper etiquette when it came to the royal family. There was not much cause for that level of formality even in Gusu Lan.
A-Yuan nodded. "A-Yuan arrived with Mama and Daddy and Uncle. I saw the little bunny sitting there and he looked confused like he was trying to find someone so I had took him with me. I met Eleventh Prince too and we went to try and find the bunny's owner."
Since he now knew to refer to the other boy as the Eleventh Prince.
"Well, it is very nice to meet you, A-Yuan," the Empress said. "Thank you for returning the rabbit. I know Sixth Princess would be sad without her friend. Come."
She gestured to both boys and offered them each one of the little cakes that Meili had made sure was in every room since it was such a long trip.
"Thank you, Royal Mother," Jianshi said.
"Thank you, your highness," A-Yuan said, each other them taking a cake and snacking on it.
"A very polite and willing to learn child," the Emperor said. "I should like to meet his parents while I am here."
"Of course," Meili said before giving Wen Ning a subtle look that she'd explain about A-Yuan's 'Mama' before that happened.
