"Princess Mingyue's dog, it, it..."
The prince, who had been sitting with his legs crossed, now placed his hands on the armrests of his chair, nodding his head leisurely as he listened to the little song being sung outside.
In an instant, his face turned from sunny to thundery and he jumped off the chair.
"What's wrong with it? Tell me!"
"it……"
"Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
"Prince, guess what happened to the dog?"
"Why are you keeping me in suspense?"
The prince kicked the guard, who was the man who had just been regarded as the prince's close adviser. He was kneeling on the ground, frowning and sighing.
As he stood up, his eyes rolled in his sockets, as if he had thought of a solution.
If I tell the prince directly that the dog sneaked away when the young guard went to the toilet, not only will the emperor not believe it, but even he himself will not believe it.
After all, the little pug was kicked like that, so it would be understandable if it died, but it should be the kind of thing that the imperial physician tried his best to save, but ultimately failed.
"Reporting to the Crown Prince, the imperial physician just finished examining you and then went to examine the dog. As a result, the dog died. We watched helplessly as it happened. In order to prevent Princess Mingyue from knowing, we buried it privately."
“Nonsense!”
"Please spare my life, Prince. This is all my fault."
The personal advisor bent his knees and knelt before the prince, his head touching the ground, waiting for his fate.
"Of course it's your fault. The dog died, but why was it buried? It should have been roasted to be delicious. I appointed you as an advisor, but are you capable of doing the job? You can't even think of this."
"Yes, yes! I will go to the imperial kitchen now and ask them to prepare a dog meat feast for the prince."
"Wait. Don't forget to send some to my father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen."
"But, Prince, if Princess Mingyue knew about this, she would definitely come and cry and make a fuss. It would be better for you to enjoy it yourself."
"How can that be? Didn't you say that the Emperor wanted to use me, the Crown Prince, to enthrone the Sixth Prince? This is a good opportunity to show them how sensible I am."
"Prince, according to my humble analysis, this is absolutely not allowed. If you do that, everyone in the palace will think that you are too ostentatious and don't take them seriously."
"Hey! So many people are jealous of me, the Crown Prince. Why not send some to them too? Especially the Sixth Prince. Let him try it too. Even if he doesn't like it, he has to swallow it. I'll see if he dares to recite poetry in front of the Emperor again. It'll be enough to make him suffer for a while. Oh, and after he finishes eating, tell him that it's dog meat. That way, he won't be able to vomit even if he does. Hahaha."
"Princess Mingyue has arrived."
"What? Why is she here? She said I wasn't here."
"Prince, Princess Mingyue has already entered the courtyard. I'm afraid there's nothing we can do..."
When the counselor turned around, he saw the prince hiding behind a cabinet in panic, but one of his feet was exposed, seemingly standing on one leg, but in fact, he was trying to cover up his mistakes.
"Where's my fifth brother? I clearly saw him come back."
"that……"
The strategist took a deep breath and swayed from side to side like a tumbler, standing in front of Princess Mingyue.
"I'm asking you a question. Where's my brother?"
A five-year-old little girl, wearing a colorful skirt, a heavy bun on her head, and a round face, would be very cute if she didn't cry.
"The prince has indeed returned, but he has something else going on and is out again."
"Then why don't you follow me out? Fifth brother, I see you, come out quickly."
