He Zhu arrived at the General's Mansion as quickly as possible. The General's Mansion was already used to He Zhu's arrivals. They would only feel strange if He Zhu didn't come one day!
Now the Crown Prince sends things to the General's Mansion almost every day.
He Zhu, familiar with the place, arrived at He Xue's courtyard and handed the things to He Xue.
He Xue looked at the hairpin in her hand. "Da Zhu, go back and tell my brother the Crown Prince that he doesn't need to make me any more hairpins. I already have plenty!"
He Xue felt that even if she wore one every day, it would probably take her a year to wear it!
“Princess, this is the Crown Prince’s heartfelt gift to you!” He Zhu said.
Hearing He Zhu's words, He Xue couldn't help but smile. However, He Xue was a little curious as to why the Crown Prince had written her a letter today!
She opened the letter and read it carefully. It contained some instructions from the Crown Prince, but at the end, the Crown Prince asked her if she needed to find two storytellers to entertain her.
A storyteller? He Xue wondered why the Crown Prince would think of finding her a storyteller. Was he worried she was getting too bored? But why did she feel that the Crown Prince was somewhat gritting his teeth when he wrote that sentence?
"Dazhu, go back and tell the Crown Prince that there's no need to find a storyteller anymore. If I get bored, I'll go to a teahouse!" He Xue said.
He Zhu looked at He Xue with difficulty and said ingratiatingly, "Princess, why don't you write a reply to the Crown Prince yourself?"
His Highness the Crown Prince said that if this servant cannot deliver your letter, then this servant need not return to Yuqing Palace!
"Perfect, you can stay at the General's Mansion! The General's Mansion can afford to support you!" Xue joked.
"Princess, please don't tease your servant!" He Zhu said with a wry smile.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely let you go back to Yuqing Palace!" He Xue said as she got up and went to her desk to write a letter to the Crown Prince.
As a gesture of courtesy, He Xue also reminded the Crown Prince to eat on time and get plenty of rest! Then she wrote down what she had just said to He Zhu.
He Xue picked up the letter, gently blew on it to dry it, then put it in an envelope and handed it to He Zhu. "Now you can go back and report!"
"This servant thanks Your Highness for your consideration!" He Zhu said obsequiously.
He Xue felt that the Crown Prince shouldn't have mentioned the storyteller for no reason; there must be something going on.
As He Zhu was about to leave, He Xue stopped him, "How was the Crown Prince's mood before you came to the General's Mansion?"
He Zhu thought for a moment and said, "Not good! Very bad!"
"Did you meet anyone, Your Highness?"
"The Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince!" He Zhu felt there was nothing he couldn't say, so he told He Xue directly.
He Xue nodded to indicate that she understood, and then let He Zhu leave.
"The Crown Prince is in a bad mood. Could it be that the Ninth Prince has offended him?" He Xue wondered to herself.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Xue's mind: the Ninth Prince and the storyteller. Connecting these two, Xue roughly understood what was going on.
"Little Ninth Prince, you've ruined me!" He Xue cried out inwardly. It must be that the Ninth Prince told the Crown Prince about her suggestion that the Ninth Prince find a storyteller. The Crown Prince's petty nature had kicked in again.
She knew it! Why would the Crown Prince bring up a storyteller for no reason?
He Xue rested her head on the desk, her hands hanging limply at her sides. She had just replied to the Crown Prince with those words, and she wondered what his expression would be when he saw them.
He Xue mentally cursed the Ninth Prince and began to think of ways to deal with the Crown Prince.
The Ninth Prince, who was on his way to find the Tenth Prince, suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and said, "I wonder who's been talking about me again!"
After finding the Tenth Prince, the Ninth Prince immediately wanted to take him to Yikun Palace.
The Tenth Prince thought something had happened, so he didn't ask any more questions and followed the Ninth Prince straight to Yikun Palace.
The people around the Tenth Prince, the Ninth Prince has already put Feng Cai under his watchful eye.
When Emperor Kangxi learned that Consort Yi had sent someone to invite him to Yikun Palace, he guessed what was going on. He did not expect that Consort Yi would have a result so quickly, so he put aside his work and went to Yikun Palace immediately.
