“Yes, Second Brother really loves jade. He has collected quite a lot of jade over the years!” Tenth Prince agreed.
He Xue knew, of course, that the Crown Prince had collected a lot of jade, but all the jade he had collected was with her! The Crown Prince knew she liked jade, and all the gifts he gave her were made of jade.
"Sister, what are you grinning about?" the Ninth Prince asked, puzzled.
She gave the Ninth Prince a sidelong glance, but her smile wasn't silly; it was sweet. She didn't know what the Ninth Prince was thinking.
"Sister, look, this shows how stingy the Crown Prince is! You've called him Crown Prince for so many years, but he won't even give you a single piece of jade!"
"No, actually..." He Xue couldn't let the Ninth Prince slander the Crown Prince at will.
"Sister, you don't need to explain for the Crown Prince."
You like jade, your younger brother will grant your wish. I'll go get gold and trade it with the Crown Prince, and I'll inlay your entire mansion with jade.
"Sister, I'll find you a few more storytellers, and they can tell you stories just for you. If you get tired of that, I can find you some opera singers too. I promise they'll all be just what you want!"
"What demands do I have! Don't talk nonsense!" He Xueyi refused the Ninth Prince with righteous indignation. She was a very proper person, but the key was that she couldn't help but be proper, as the Crown Prince was right in front of her!
"Sister, don't try to hide it from us, your drool is practically dripping!" the Tenth Prince said with a mischievous grin.
"Sister, look how good this life will be! It's much better than marrying the Crown Prince! Don't you get tired of seeing the Crown Prince's face every day?"
Besides, the prince is older than you, he'll definitely age faster, and you'll get tired of him then!
"Little Ninth Prince, has the Crown Prince been harassing you lately?" Xuejian saw that the Ninth Prince was sparing no effort to smear the Crown Prince, and she even suspected that the Ninth Prince had joined the Eighth Prince's camp.
Nowadays, these princes are considered to be brothers, except for the Eighth Prince, who has always been somewhat unsociable.
“Sister, I’m analyzing this for you!” the Ninth Prince said.
Upon hearing these words, the Crown Prince, besides wanting to give the Ninth Prince a beating, was also pondering whether Xue would dislike him in the future.
"Xiao Jiu, how could you say that to your Crown Prince brother? It will make him sad!"
"I didn't say anything, and besides, everything I said was true!"
"Sister, you really can't marry the Crown Prince!" the Ninth Prince said with a very serious expression.
The Crown Prince felt that if they didn't leave soon, Xue might really be fooled by the Ninth Prince.
The crown prince swung open the door with an air of dominance. "What's wrong with marrying me? If not me, who else would you marry?"
The Ninth Prince had his back to the Crown Prince at the time. Upon hearing the Crown Prince's voice, he turned his head with difficulty and looked at the Crown Prince with a shocked expression.
The Tenth Prince looked at the Crown Prince in disbelief, then turned back to look at He Xue. What was going on? How could the Crown Prince have come out of his sister's room?
He Xue covered her head, now there was really no way to explain.
"Ah... what's wrong, sister?" Ninth Prince asked, coming back to his senses.
"Would you believe me if I said that it was my brother, the Crown Prince, who came to tell me about Mother Tong?" He Xue asked timidly.
"Sister, do you think we'll believe that?" the Ninth Prince asked irritably.
"Sister, you're not really going to marry the Crown Prince, are you?" the Tenth Prince asked the crucial question.
"Why not?" The Crown Prince walked up to He Xue, took her hand in his, and asked with a frown, "Why is it so cold? Come inside!"
"Qingdai, go get a hot water bottle!" After saying that, she ignored the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince and walked into the house with He Xue in their arms.
The Tenth Prince looked at the Ninth Prince, "Ninth Brother, what should we do?"
"What else can we do? We should go in and find out!" said the Ninth Prince.
"He just takes it out on me. If he's so capable, he should go find the Crown Prince!" the Tenth Prince muttered under his breath.
The Ninth Prince pretended to hit the Tenth Prince.
"Ninth Brother, I was wrong! Let's hurry up and find Sister!" the Tenth Prince immediately begged for forgiveness.
The Ninth Prince was also worried about He Xue. At that time, the Crown Prince's expression was not good. "What are you dawdling for? Let's go!"
