He Xue probably exhausted too much energy during this trip to the palace, so much so that she didn't wake up when it was time to leave.

During this time, the Crown Prince always held He Xue, because whenever the person was changed, He Xue would whine and look like she was about to cry, even if it was Tong Jia Shi.

So the prince could only continue to hold He Xue while she slept.

Finally, seeing that He Xue showed no signs of waking up, Kangxi waved his hand and granted the four princes half a day off, instructing the princes to escort He Xue back.

When the eldest prince heard that he didn't have to go to class and could even leave the palace, he was so happy he almost jumped for joy.

The eldest prince felt that this was all thanks to the Crown Prince and He Xue. He thought that He Xue should be allowed to enter the palace more often in the future, and that the Crown Prince should hold He Xue more often, which might bring unexpected benefits.

The Third Prince and the Fourth Prince were overjoyed to learn that they could leave the palace. Thus, Lady Tongjia, accompanied by Hexue, left the palace under the escort of the Crown Prince and his four attendants.

Because the Crown Prince wanted to hold He Xue, he and Lady Tongjia got into the carriage. The Third Prince and the Fourth Prince also got into the carriage because of their age.

The eldest prince chose to ride a horse; having finally left the palace, of course he wanted to ride one.

The eldest prince was extremely disgusted by the crown prince's behavior of riding in a carriage. How could a grown man ride in a carriage that only girls would ride in! He was going to become the Baturu of the Qing Dynasty!

The third and fourth brothers are really something, actually riding in a carriage. They must be too weak. As the eldest brother, it's his responsibility to take care of his younger brothers. It seems he needs to strengthen their training in the future.

The Third and Fourth Princes, who were playing with He Xue in the carriage, were completely unaware that the First Prince was about to subject them to grueling training.

If the Third and Fourth Princes knew what the First Prince was thinking, they would have cried and said, "Brother, there's no need for that. You can train yourself!"

He Xue woke up when she left the palace. Seeing that it was still the Crown Prince holding her, she pursed her lips and blew out a bubble.

The Crown Prince couldn't help but smile as he watched He Xue's little gestures.

After He Xue woke up, Lady Tongjia wanted to carry He Xue to her, but the Crown Prince had already learned how to carry He Xue, so he told Lady Tongjia that he should carry He Xue instead!

Seeing this, Lady Tongjia said nothing and let the Crown Prince continue to hold Hexue.

The eldest prince felt a fleeting pang of envy as he listened to the laughter that occasionally emanated from the carriage, but it vanished in an instant. He was convinced that he was not fit to ride in a carriage.

Su Hetai returned to his residence and learned that Lady Tongjia had taken Hexue to the palace.

He waited and waited, but Tongjia and her daughter never returned.

He went directly to the outside of the mansion to wait.

“Father, Mother and Little Sister will be back soon! You should go back to the manor and wait!” the eldest son, Jingshu, advised.

“That’s right! Father, Mother took my little sister into the palace, nothing will happen! Would the Emperor leave my little sister in the palace?” said the second son, Shuyi.

Su Hetai rolled his eyes at Shuyi, who was deliberately trying to stab him in the chest.

This was exactly what he was worried about. Consort Tongjia had just lost her daughter, and his own daughter was so lovable. Perhaps the Emperor would let Hexue stay in the palace to please Consort Tongjia.

Having grown up alongside the Emperor, she was quite familiar with his temperament. The Aisin Gioro family had produced many romantics throughout history, and in the Emperor's generation, he became the Emperor.

Suhetai, with a hint of malice, wondered which of the Crown Prince's generation would be the most romantic.

It doesn't matter who it is to him; he's still worried about his daughter!

Although the Emperor was far inferior to his father and father, he was still a rare and devoted lover compared to other men!

Although the Emperor usually treated Consort Tongjia no differently than anyone else, he secretly cared deeply for her.

It's just that they don't usually show it, because they're worried that treating Consort Tongjia too specially might arouse jealousy from others.

So now he's afraid that the Emperor might say something like, "Let He Xue stay in the palace," just to please Consort Tongjia.

It has to be said that Suhetai really guessed what Kangxi was thinking.
