Since arriving here, He Xue has been very careful. She has tried her best to learn the local customs, not only their lifestyle but also their way of speaking. She is afraid that people will find out that she is different from others.
She was always very careful when she spoke. Although she was a modern adult, she was now a child in ancient times, and there were some things that children of this age shouldn't say. So she tried to speak in a child's tone, which was really tiring.
She lived each day with utmost care, gradually integrating herself into the community and transforming herself into a proper ancient person.
Unexpectedly, someone told her today that she didn't need to hide anything, that she could say whatever she wanted and do whatever she wanted. All of Xue's grievances welled up at that moment, and tears streamed down her face.
The prince saw He Xue standing in front of him with her head down, silently shedding tears, her shoulders trembling.
Looking at He Xue like this, the Crown Prince felt as if his heart was bleeding. He held He Xue in his arms and whispered, "He Xue, don't hide anything anymore. Do whatever you want. Your Crown Prince brother will protect you!"
Hearing the Crown Prince's words, He Xue felt she had a reason to release all her grievances. She cried out, her voice growing louder and louder, as if only in this way could she express her grievances.
The Crown Prince held He Xue in his arms, gently patting her as she cried. He regretted that he should have told her these things sooner, otherwise she wouldn't have had to endure so much.
He couldn't comment on whether Su Hetai's actions were right or wrong, since Su Hetai was also trying to protect He Xue. However, he felt that He Xue was too young and shouldn't have to bear so much.
After letting out her pent-up frustrations, Xue felt much better. Only then did she realize that she had cried uncontrollably in front of an ancient child, which was truly embarrassing.
The Crown Prince heard that He Xue's crying had subsided considerably. He looked down and saw He Xue blushing and secretly glancing at him. "Why are you embarrassed now?"
The Crown Prince assumed that Xue was shy and refrained from teasing her.
"Brother Crown Prince, I..." He Xue could only pretend to be shy.
“Your Highness the Crown Prince said that you don’t need to hide anything from him. You can do whatever you want, so don’t be shy!” The Crown Prince patted He Xue on the head.
"Although General Suhetai did this to protect you, it really wronged you. You are so young and shouldn't have to bear so much!"
He Xue listened to the Crown Prince's words and realized that he had misunderstood that her father had made her do this. However, this was for the best, as it saved her from having to explain anything. The Crown Prince probably wouldn't confront her father, so her father should take the blame.
He Xue silently apologized to Su He Tai in her heart, "Father! I can only trouble you for the sake of your daughter. I will take good care of you in the future!"
"Brother Crown Prince, thank you!" He Xue sincerely thanked the Crown Prince.
"There's no need to be so polite with my Crown Prince brother!"
He Xue looked up and realized that the Crown Prince's clothes were soaked with her tears. "Crown Prince, your clothes..."
The crown prince looked down and saw that his clothes were soaked in the front. "It's alright, I'll just change into another one later!"
"Brother Crown Prince, I'm sorry!" He Xue lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong.
"Don't worry about it, it's not a big deal!" the Crown Prince said, stroking He Xue's hair.
Xue thought the python robe looked great, but she ruined it. If modern archaeologists knew, they would probably scold her!
Seeing that He Xue kept her head down, the Crown Prince deliberately teased her by saying, "He Xue, are you thinking of making me a dress?"
He Xue looked up at the Crown Prince with wide eyes. What a joke! When did she learn to sew clothes? In modern times, she could barely sew clothes, and even then, they were crooked and messy!
She's still so young when she gets here. Even if she knows needlework, she probably wouldn't be good enough to make clothes! The problem is, she's never even touched a needle before!
"Brother Crown Prince, I don't know how to make clothes!" He Xue said truthfully.
"What would He Xue make?" The Crown Prince suddenly realized that he had never received anything made by He Xue himself.
He Xue gave him many things, but they were all either bought or prepared in advance by Tong Jia Shi. He wanted something that He Xue made herself, anything, as long as it was made by He Xue herself!
"I can't do anything!" He Xue thought for a moment and said truthfully.
"It's alright, as long as it's made by you, I, the Crown Prince, will like it!" the Crown Prince said.
Since Crown Prince Xuejian was determined to have something made by her, she couldn't refuse anymore. "Brother Crown Prince, let me think about it! But after I finish making it, you can't be picky about it!"
"Don't worry, my brother the Crown Prince likes it too much to care about anything else!" the Crown Prince said.
He Xue nodded, "Alright! Brother Crown Prince, I've kept you occupied for too long, so I won't bother you any longer. I'll go back to Aunt's place now!"
“Alright, Your Highness will see you off!” the Crown Prince said.
"No need, Crown Prince! I have Nanxing and Xiabing with me!"
"Alright then! Be careful on the road!" The Crown Prince gave some instructions before letting He Xue leave Yuqing Palace.
