Upon hearing this voice, the Crown Prince's expression clearly showed disgust; he truly hadn't expected the Eighth Prince to show up today.
"Eighth Brother, we've been waiting for you!" the eldest prince said, holding the eighth prince's injured arm.
"Eighth brother, eighth sister-in-law, please have a seat!" the crown prince said with a slight upturn of his lips.
Although He Xue knew in her heart that the Eighth Prince was injured, seeing his appearance made her realize how serious his injury was, and she couldn't understand how he could go out with such a face.
One of his eyes was black, the corner of his mouth was blue, and one of his cheekbones was also blue. Seeing the Eighth Prince like this, Xue was even more certain that it was the First Prince and the other two who had beaten him.
Tana came to He Xue's side, "Your Highness, I'm sorry we're late!"
When Tana saw the Eighth Prince like this, she didn't plan to go to the palace, but for some reason the Eighth Prince insisted on going. Her attempts to persuade him were to no avail, so she had no choice but to accompany him.
"It's alright, it's good that you're here. Just call me He Xue as before!" He Xue said with a smile.
“Yes!” Tana nodded.
The Eighth Prince secretly glanced at He Xue, his eyes smiling, radiating happiness, and a gentle smile playing on his lips.
He had never seen He Xue like this before. [If it weren't for the Crown Prince's interference, he would be the one by He Xue's side.] The Eighth Prince thought unwillingly.
The Crown Prince noticed that the Eighth Prince was looking at He Xue, glared at the Eighth Prince, and then brought He Xue to his side.
"Did the eleventh brother make this?" the Eighth Prince asked, looking at the wooden carving in front of him. He remembered that when he arrived, everyone was gathered around looking at something!
"Yes, I made it. It's a wedding gift for my elder sister and second brother!" the eleventh prince said to the eighth prince.
The Eighth Prince looked at the wooden carving in front of him and said to be honest, it really looked like the real thing, so lifelike. "Eleventh Brother, what a skillful craftsman! I am ashamed of my own skill!"
"My nephew is joking!" the eleventh prince said, embarrassed.
"However, there is one flaw!" the Eighth Prince said with a smile.
"Where is it?" the Eleventh Prince asked. Hearing the Eighth Prince say this, the Eleventh Prince also carefully examined the wood carving, but found nothing wrong with it!
"Old Eight, stop nitpicking. It's good enough that you've done this in one night!"
"I think you can't see clearly with one eye!" The eldest prince felt that the eighth prince was just picking a fight.
"Brother, you jest!" The Eighth Prince completely ignored the First Prince's sarcasm. "Second Brother and He..."
The Crown Prince raised his eyes and glared at the Eighth Prince.
The Eighth Prince immediately changed his tune, "Second Brother and the others have always worn their tokens of love! Eleventh Brother's carving doesn't have that!"
"No, I clearly checked carefully yesterday and there wasn't one!" the Eleventh Prince retorted.
He Xue touched her empty fingers. The Crown Prince had sent someone to take the ring away, and she hadn't even had a chance to ask why!
"Eleventh brother, you can ask your second brother if there is such a thing?" the Eighth Prince asked confidently, since he had personally smashed the ring last night.
"Second brother?" The eleventh brother looked at the crown prince.
“Indeed we did, but neither your second sister-in-law nor I wore them last night!” the Crown Prince said.
"Why isn't Second Brother wearing it? It shouldn't be like this; he should be wearing it on such an important day!" the Eighth Prince said sarcastically.
Everyone else present understood that the Eighth Prince had come to cause trouble.
"He Zhu!" He Xue said to He Zhu, who was standing like a pillar, "Go tell the imperial kitchen to put less salt in the food today. The Eighth Prince is too idle!"
