He Xue was quite surprised to hear that the Eighth Prince had arrived. What did the Eighth Prince want to see her for?
Since Su and Tai have already sent someone to tell her, it wouldn't be appropriate for her not to go.
The Eighth Prince anxiously looked towards the door and saw He Xue arrive. He immediately stood up from his seat.
"Greetings, Eighth Prince!" He Xue bowed and greeted the Eighth Prince.
"No need for formalities!" the Eighth Prince said with a smile.
Upon hearing that the Eighth Prince had actually arrived, the Crown Prince nearly crushed his wine cup, his face immediately turning ugly. "He's like a persistent ghost!"
"Second Brother, what's wrong with you?" The Fourth Prince didn't understand why the Crown Prince had suddenly become like this.
"It's alright! Shuyi, I'll go with you!" the Crown Prince said angrily.
"Second brother, I'll go with you!"
"No need! You and Jingshu can continue drinking!" The Crown Prince wanted to see what the Eighth Prince was up to.
After saying this, the Crown Prince walked straight out, and Shuyi immediately chased after him.
"He Xue, how are you?" the Eighth Prince asked, looking at He Xue's pale face.
"Thank you for your concern, Eighth Prince. I am fine!" He Xue thought that the Eighth Prince probably did not know about her situation at Yuqing Palace.
"He Xue, I know about your matter! I brought some tonics, I hope they will be helpful to you!" The Eighth Prince was not angry when He Xue denied it.
He Xue didn't know how the Eighth Prince knew, but she didn't ask any further questions. "Thank you, Eighth Prince!"
The Eighth Prince hesitated for a moment, then asked, "He Xue, will you marry the Crown Prince?"
When the Crown Prince rushed over in a huff, he heard what the Eighth Prince said. Instead of going in, he hid to the side, wanting to hear how He Xue would express her affection for him.
Shuyi was speechless as he looked at the Crown Prince eavesdropping. How could a Crown Prince do such a thing! However, he was also quite curious about what Xue and Shuyi were talking about.
"Yes!" A single word, simple yet resolute.
"Why? Just because he's the Crown Prince?" the Eighth Prince asked, unwilling to accept it.
"I only love the Crown Prince, nothing more!"
"There's no one else in sight, he's everywhere!" The eyes of the person mentioning the Crown Prince and Xue were filled with tenderness.
The prince felt a warm sensation strike his heart and flow through his entire body, filling him with joy.
Shuyi suddenly sensed that the Crown Prince's fierce aura had disappeared, and he had become much gentler. Was this the transformation of steel into silk? It was terrifying. If he became like this, how could he fight on the battlefield in the future? Therefore, he decided against getting married.
The Eighth Prince looked at He Xue with a wounded expression, "He Xue, I'm not reconciled. What is it about me that I lack compared to the Crown Prince!"
"Eighth Prince, it's not that you're inferior to the Crown Prince, it's just that you're not him!"
Eighth Prince, you are about to get married. You should put your heart into Tana. She is the one who will accompany you for life.
Since you've agreed to marry Tana, you have to take responsibility for her! She's gambling her entire life's happiness, and I hope you won't let her lose that gamble.
"If I have done anything that has caused you to misunderstand, please forgive me, Eighth Prince!" He Xue bowed and said.
"He Xue, why won't you give me even the slightest chance?" the Eighth Prince asked with a bitter smile.
"It's best not to leave any room for anything that's impossible! Since I've chosen to marry my brother, the Crown Prince, I also need to take responsibility for him and put his mind at ease!" He Xue said.
"You can reassure him, but can he reassure you?" the Eighth Prince retorted.
