The Seventh Prince kept his head down and didn't say anything.
He Xue knew that her behavior was extremely disrespectful, daring to speak ill of the prince, but she had already said it and felt uncomfortable if she didn't finish.
Even if the Seventh Prince were to punish her in the end, she believed that the Crown Prince would not let it go unpunished.
"Seventh Prince, in the palace, it is said that a son's status rises with his mother's, and a mother's status rises with her son's. Only if you achieve something can you change Consort Cheng's current situation."
"Xiao Qi, Xue is absolutely right!" The Crown Prince walked over without anyone noticing.
"You've been hiding from us brothers all these years. We want to help you, but we can't see you."
You can think about Xue's suggestion carefully. If you want to learn martial arts, you can ask your eldest brother. If you want to learn literature, you can ask me or your third brother.
Remember, no matter what, we'll always be brothers!
"Second brother, I..." The seventh prince was almost crying, but he held back because He Xue was there.
"Seventh brother, no matter what happens, you should never underestimate yourself. Being born into the royal family is already an advantage for you. How can you look down on yourself?"
Look at your fifth brother. At first, he couldn't even understand Chinese. Every time he communicated with others, I had to translate for him. Now, he can communicate with everyone on his own!
So don't give up on yourself so easily, you still have us brothers! The Crown Prince had always wanted to talk to the Seventh Prince, but he couldn't find a suitable time. Today was a good opportunity to talk to the Seventh Prince and hopefully he could resolve his inner conflict.
"Thank you, Second Brother!" The Seventh Prince looked at He Xue, "And thank you, Princess Xue, as well!"
"Seventh Prince, you are too kind! I hope you will not blame me!" He Xue curtsied to the Seventh Prince and said.
"No way!" the Seventh Prince quickly waved his hand and said.
"Brother Crown Prince, what brings you here?" He Xue asked. Wasn't the Crown Prince always with his uncle and the others?
"I came over when I saw you talking to Seventh Brother!" the Crown Prince said. He had turned around and noticed that Xue was missing, so he came looking for her.
"Your Highness, you were really amazing just now!" He Xue had always thought that the Crown Prince's kung fu wasn't very good, after all, he had been very busy all day.
“We Manchus conquered the world on horseback, so your martial arts skills can’t be too weak, Your Highness!” the Crown Prince said with a smile.
"Yes, my Crown Prince is skilled in both literature and martial arts!" He Xue said admiringly.
The Crown Prince was very pleased with He Xue's praise. "He Xue, what does 'handsome' mean?"
He Xue realized that the Crown Prince must have heard her when she spoke very softly, so how could he have heard her?
"It means 'beautiful,' it's a compliment to a man's good looks!" He Xue explained simply.
The Crown Prince was speechless. He Xue just liked looking at good-looking people, regardless of gender.
The Crown Prince said to He Xue earnestly, "He Xue, let me tell you, a man doesn't need to be good-looking. Good-looking men are all bad!"
He Xue frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at the Crown Prince. "Crown Prince, you're very handsome too! I think you're very dashing!"
The crown prince was speechless.
The Seventh Prince, who was following behind the Crown Prince, couldn't help but laugh out loud. His Second Brother had completely shot himself in the foot.
The Crown Prince looked at the Seventh Prince with displeasure.
The Seventh Prince immediately shut up, saying, "Second Brother, I'm going to find the Eldest Brother!" and walked away right away.
The Seventh Prince felt that being with his brothers was much better than being alone in the Princes' Quarters. Perhaps he should become his mother's support and stop her from crying all the time.
"He Xue, since the Crown Prince is so... handsome, why don't you just look at the Crown Prince and not look at anyone else!" the Crown Prince said in a coaxing tone.
"But I want to see more handsome men! Your handsomeness is different in every way! Each of you is handsome in your own unique way!"
"Your Highness, you know, I want to eat all the delicious food in the world and see all the handsome men and beautiful women in the world!" He Xue thought that naturally beautiful women and handsome men were more pleasing to the eye.
When the Crown Prince heard that Xue's future plans didn't include him, he immediately became anxious, "Nonsense! It's not safe for a girl like you to go out alone!"
"It's alright, Crown Prince, I can find two handsome guys to protect me, and two beautiful girls to keep me company!" He Xue was happy just thinking about it! Beautiful girls, handsome guys, delicious food, life couldn't be more comfortable.
He Xue actually wants someone else to protect her? The Crown Prince felt it was necessary for him to express his feelings to He Xue. He Xue's future didn't include him at all, how could this be!
Just as the Crown Prince was about to tell He Xue his feelings, he was interrupted.
