Xiao Zai had to admit he was looking forward to the games. He had been only marginally involved in them, by going over invite lists, and assuring every fretting minister that this was merely a friendly competition, and not a display of Xiongnu force.
Chu Yun had organised everything really, although he kept telling Xiao Zai he didn't know anything about what kind of competitions Lieba Chun would be participating in.
"He's keeping it a secret," Chu Yun said that morning while the two of them were getting ready for their day.
There was a slew of servants ready to attend to them, but Xiao Zai preferred doing everything on his own. And he liked attending to Chu Yun himself. It reminded him of their previous life in the Second Prince's Estate.
He revelled in brushing out Chu Yun's hair every night, and doing it up in the morning, on the occasion that they got up at the same time.
