Reborn as the Doted Child Bride of the Deposed Crown Prince

He Xue, a modern woman with a keen interest in Qing Dynasty history, felt regret over the fate of the deposed Crown Prince, believing he didn't deserve such an end. If given the chance, she was...

Chapter 23: Kazuyuki Cries Because of Her Own Ugliness

When He Xue was two years old, the Crown Prince and the First Prince came to Chengqian Palace to pay their respects to Consort Tongjia. Consort Tongjia was busy at the time, so the four of them discussed it and secretly took He Xue out of Chengqian Palace.

It wasn't really stealing. They took Xue out of Chengqian Palace, and Consort Tongjia found out. Consort Tongjia didn't stop them, but just sent people to follow them secretly.

He Xue was very happy to see these people and played wildly with them. When the Crown Prince and the others were about to send He Xue back to Chengqian Palace, they found that He Xue's hair was disheveled.

Upon seeing this, the eldest prince immediately had an idea: he wanted to comb He Xue's hair. The crown prince wanted to stop him, but the third and fourth princes sided with the eldest prince, so he couldn't stop him.

At that time, He Xue had no idea what she was about to face. The eldest prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince surrounded He Xue and fussed over her, styling her hair into what they considered a perfect bun.

When they showed the collar to He Xue, He Xue was completely shocked by the person in the mirror. How could someone have such an ugly hairstyle?

It took He Xue a while to realize that this person was herself. Thinking that she was a modern person who had inexplicably come to the Qing Dynasty, and could not see her parents, relatives and friends, and now she had become a toy for these children, the more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and He Xue could not help but burst into tears.

When the three princes saw He Xue crying, they were at a loss and looked to the crown prince for help.

When the Crown Prince saw He Xue crying, he glared at the three princes and quickly picked up He Xue. Seeing that He Xue's eyes were red from crying and her little face was still wet with tears, the Crown Prince felt extremely sorry for her.

By this time, He Xue was sobbing uncontrollably. She felt so frustrated. Why did she end up here? She wanted to go home!

Upon seeing this, the Crown Prince picked up He Xue and ran towards Chengqian Palace, telling the First Prince as he ran to find the imperial physician.

Upon hearing this, the eldest prince immediately sent someone to find the imperial physician, and then he, along with the third and fourth princes, went to chase after the crown prince.

Consort Tongjia sent people who were secretly following her to try to take He Xue from the Crown Prince's arms, but the Crown Prince refused to let go no matter what she said, so she could only let the Crown Prince hold He Xue.

And so the Crown Prince carried He Xue, followed by the First Prince, the Third Prince, and the Fourth Prince, running wildly through the palace.

Tong Jia quickly received the news. She waited anxiously at the door, filled with self-blame. She should have stopped the prince and the others from taking He Xue away!

The Crown Prince and his entourage arrived at Chengqian Palace, where the imperial physician also came.

Consort Tongjia took Hexue from the Crown Prince's arms, and before the imperial physician could even catch his breath, the First Prince brought Hexue to him.

After the imperial physician's diagnosis, the conclusion can be summarized in one sentence: Xue cried uncontrollably.

He Xue wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground; it was too embarrassing, embarrassing even in ancient times.

The Crown Prince and his companions were relieved upon hearing this, and then apologized to Consort Tongjia.

Consort Tongjia finally understood what was going on. It turned out that He Xue had cried because she was so ugly. She was both annoyed and amused.

Consort Tongjia did not blame the Crown Prince and his companions. Xue also pleaded for the four of them, so Consort Tongjia could say nothing more. She simply told them not to do such a thing again.

Since then, the Crown Prince has started learning to style little girls' hair to prevent such a thing from happening again. He didn't want to experience it again; he was almost scared to death.

When the eldest prince and the others saw the crown prince combing He Xue's hair with a comb, they were really shocked. What shocked them even more was that the crown prince combed it quite well. They had to admit that the crown prince really cared about He Xue!

"Brother Crown Prince is the best!" He Xue said. "Big Brother should learn from Brother Crown Prince, otherwise he won't be able to find a wife in the future!"

Upon hearing He Xue's words, the Crown Prince couldn't help but smile.

"Oh ho! You're just a little girl, and you already know how to get married!" the eldest prince said with a smile.

“Of course!” Kazuyuki said, raising her head.

"He Xue, did you hear something?" The Third Prince felt that He Xue wouldn't suddenly say something like that; she must have heard something, since she had been by Tong E Niang's side the whole time.

"He Xue, tell me quickly, did you hear something from Mother Tong?" the eldest prince pressed.
