Zhao Yao looked at the empty seat beside him, his eyes filled with envy.
The owner of the empty seat was the Eighth Prince. He hadn't come to Wende Hall to study today but had gone with the Crown Prince to Hulong Temple. He would accompany the Crown Prince to pray at Hulong Temple for forty-nine days.
Zhao Yao also wanted to go to Hulong Temple to pray, as it meant he wouldn't have to study for forty-nine days. Unfortunately, his elder brother said he was too young to go to Hulong Temple to pray.
His elder brother also mentioned that the temple only served vegetarian food and worried that Zhao Yao wouldn't be able to endure it. For Zhao Yao, not eating meat was less of a hardship than studying. He would rather eat vegetarian every day at the temple than come to Wende Hall to study every day.
Sigh... so envious of my elder brother...
