"I didn't say you were wrong!" The Crown Prince was really holding back his temper at this moment. If Jing Shu wasn't Xue's older brother, he would definitely have made Jing Shu know the consequences of his treachery today.
The Fourth Prince glanced at the Crown Prince and then at Jing Shu. Why did he feel that his Second Brother seemed to be showing more leniency towards Jing Shu? Could it be that Jing Shu had caught his Second Brother doing something wrong?
"He Xue, you're not a child anymore, you must be careful! Don't be fooled by other people's sweet talk!" Jing Shu said, glancing at the Crown Prince.
"I understand, big brother!" He Xue replied obediently.
The prince clenched and unclenched his fist; Jing Shu really deserved a beating.
"Your Highness, please speak quickly! Otherwise, once He Xue returns to the General's Mansion, it may not be so easy for you to see her!" Jing Shu "kindly" reminded the Crown Prince.
"Big brother, can I go to the palace to see my brother, the Crown Prince?"
"What did your older brother just tell you? Have you forgotten? Boys and girls must not sit together after the age of seven!"
“Oh! I understand!” He Xue replied.
"Good boy! There's something I need to remind you: try not to address His Highness the Crown Prince like you did just now. After all, there's a difference between ruler and subject!" Jing Shu's words were now stabbing the Crown Prince in the heart, each one drawing blood.
"He Xue will call me Crown Prince Brother, and I'll see who dares to object!" the Crown Prince said domineeringly.
"Your Highness, you should say goodbye to He Xue quickly! Time waits for no one!" Jing Shu kindly reminded the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince had a lot to say to He Xue, but after Jing Shu's unreasonable ramblings, nothing he said would be appropriate.
"He Xue, you must take your medicine obediently and not try any tricks!"
"If you have anything to say, you can send someone to tell your brother, the Crown Prince. He will also come to the General's Mansion to see you!" The Crown Prince said a few words to He Xue under Jing Shu's gaze.
"I understand, Crown Prince!" He Xue replied with a smile. He Xue felt that now that she was back in the General's Mansion, the Crown Prince was powerless to stop her from doing whatever she wanted.
The Crown Prince seemed to see through He Xue's thoughts. "When He Xue is taking her medicine, you must keep an eye on her, otherwise she might try to avoid taking it!" the Crown Prince said to Jing Shu.
"Thank you for your trouble, Your Highness. He Xue is my younger sister, and I will take good care of her!"
The Crown Prince had never known that Jing Shu could be so despicable. He also realized that Jing Shu was only daring to do anything to him because of He Xue's influence.
Jing Shu was right. He really couldn't do anything to Jing Shu, who was also his brother-in-law. He certainly couldn't use his status as the crown prince to pressure him.
The Crown Prince smiled slyly, walked up to Jing Shu, and whispered something to him.
Upon hearing the Crown Prince's words, Jing Shu's expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
He Xue and the Fourth Prince were both very curious about what the Crown Prince had said, but no matter whether they asked the Crown Prince or Jing Shu, neither of them would say.
