We are not afraid of being misunderstood

This was Liang Hengchen's first encounter with Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo. 

As expected, they did not seem to come from a remote place.

He tactfully took the initiative to ask, "Father, I'll step down now?"

The emperor raised his hand. "There's no need. You continue to grind the ink."

Liang Hengchen's expression did not change. "Yes!"

Shi Qingluo heard the conversation between the two and roughly guessed that this was the crown prince who kept a low profile.

From this, it could be seen that the emperor trusted and valued the crown prince.

Being ordered to grind the ink felt like an act of the emperor's closeness to the crown prince.

The emperor had a good impression of Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo.

Hence, he ordered someone to prepare seats on the two of them.

Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo did not cower. 

Since the emperor had prepared seats for them, then they should sit down.
