The fourth prince made a promise to Princess Xu to be "one man and one woman for life".
It wasn't just the atmosphere that was right; the Fourth Prince was also moved by Princess Xu.
There was also the melancholy left to him by Xie Rou.
Damn it, she's just a pathetic, stupid woman who begged and pleaded to become his concubine.
But when she entered, she still had an air of superiority on her face.
She was arrogant and haughty, showing no respect for her husband whatsoever.
It was as if marrying him was such a wronged and shameful thing.
Pooh!
Who asked you to "marry down"?
They even complained that he was stupid and incompetent.
Even if Helian Huang was not the best, he was still a prince, a first-rank prince appointed by the emperor.
The fourth prince was just not very bright, but he was never a fool.
I would never act like a jerk.
Xie Rou looked down on him, and he would never lower himself to her level.
With Xie Rou by his side, the Fourth Prince developed a negative impression of other women.
It was Princess Xu. The Fourth Prince knew she was good to him and was the most suitable princess for him.
But she always threatened him with a spiked club. If the Fourth Prince, as a man, didn't care at all, he would definitely be lying.
He may be useless, but as his wife, I should still give him some respect.
After arriving in Lingnan, perhaps because she had left the capital, her princess began to reveal her true nature.
It turns out that she didn't disrespect him; rather, she had long considered him to be the master of the Prince's mansion.
He makes the decisions on all the important matters!
Unfortunately, while in the capital, he had his father, the emperor, and his mother above him, and he also had to deal with the fifth prince in between.
The fourth prince hardly ever caused any major incidents.
Upon arriving in Yongzhou, he became the unique Prince of Yong, and thus, it was necessary for him to make decisions on some important matters.
The princess slowly revealed the respect and importance she had kept hidden in her heart.
Perhaps the Fourth Prince was too easily fooled, or perhaps Princess Xu's acting skills were superb.
The fourth prince fell into self-hypnosis, and his relationship with Princess Xu entered a higher and better stage!
...
With Helian Jue and Princess Xu, as the leaders of the two royal palaces, fully recovered from their illnesses, the two military camps should also break camp and embark on their journey home.
On the night before his departure, Xie Yuan ordered his men to set up a large pot in an open space.
The aroma of mutton hotpot spread around the camp.
With wine and meat, singing and dancing, everyone was very happy.
The fourth prince had drunk two more cups, and his face began to show signs of intoxication.
"Hey, boss, did you know that I just received a message from Yongzhou that an angel (the emperor's envoy) has come from the capital to deliver an imperial decree?"
The fourth prince let out a burp.
He was probably really drunk, showing no respect whatsoever for Helian Jue.
His face even showed obvious pride, "Haha, the Sage has bestowed upon me the title of a First-Rank Prince."
"Super Grade One! It's even a grade higher than Grade One!"
As for Helian Jue, haha, the former crown prince, he was only a first-rank prince.
Now, he, Helian Huang, is of a higher rank than Helian Jue!
Helian Jue's face darkened, and he looked at the Fourth Prince with a hint of hostility.
He wasn't jealous that the fourth prince was of a higher rank than him; he was angry because this stupid younger brother dared to be so disrespectful to him!
What about the rules?
Was it eaten by a dog?
Xie Yuan wasn't as angry as Helian Jue.
She already knew what kind of person the Fourth Prince was.
He's a simpleton, how could he live up to that title if he didn't do something stupid?
What she cared about was: "Did the Emperor commend His Highness Prince Yong?"
So, the sage already knew about the "miracle ointment"?
Moreover, he understood the dangers involved, which is why he rewarded the Prince of Yong's mansion handsomely.
That's good!
As people of later generations, our fear of the "immortal ointment" reached its peak.
She didn't know why such a poisonous substance as "Fairy Ointment" existed in this time and space.
However, now that it has been discovered, Xie Yuan has a responsibility to eradicate it completely!
As things stand, her and Helian Jue's influence is quite limited.
To completely eliminate them across the land of Kyushu, we still need the Emperor, the Sage.
"Yes! A messenger from the Prince's Palace sent word that in addition to the investiture, there will also be some rewards such as gold and silver."
Princess Xu, too lazy to watch her foolish husband court death, said seriously to Xie Yuan, "The Emperor must already know how terrible the Divine Elixir is, which is why he rewarded him."
"Speaking of which, this matter should have been attributed to His Highness the Prince of Yue—"
However, the King of Yue and his wife did not want it and instead gave it to the Prince of Yong's residence.
Prince Yong was rewarded for this, although it was not a substantial reward, it was still an honor.
The Prince of Yong's Mansion owes the Prince of Yue's Mansion a favor.
While Helian Jue was annoyed by the Fourth Prince, he did not overlook Xie Yuan's conversation with Princess Xu.
Upon hearing what Princess Xu said, his expression softened slightly.
The fourth prince was foolish and stupid, but fortunately he married a fairly reliable princess.
At least there's someone sensible and understanding in the Prince Yong's mansion.
Otherwise, Helian Jue really wouldn't want to take the fourth brother as his subordinate.
"It doesn't matter! I didn't care anyway!"
Helian Jue waved his hand generously.
"Still calling yourself 'I'! You've been crippled!"
The fourth prince couldn't help but feel awkward when he heard Helian Jue use the word "I".
He mumbled somewhat drunkenly, "And besides, Father doesn't like you at all! Even if you report the matter of the 'Fairy Ointment,' you won't get a reward!"
Hmph, it's clearly just doing someone a favor, yet they act like they're doing a "favor."
Helian Jue's face darkened again.
Princess Xu sighed and rubbed her forehead: "...Your Highness, why are you speaking such blunt truths?"
To prevent her prince from continuing his reckless behavior, Princess Xu quickly changed the subject, "By the way, our palace also sent some news."
