The third prince brought Jiang Yueyang to the entrance of a palace. On the plaque was written: Liuyun Palace.
Jiang Yueyang asked in confusion: "Your Highness, where is this? Didn't you say you would take me to see the Second Prince?"
"My palace. My second brother lives with me now."
Jiang Yueyang opened her eyes slightly wide, "Your Majesty allowed the Second Prince to return to the palace? How did you do that?"
"Let's talk inside."
Jiang Yueyang nodded and followed him into Liuyun Palace.
As soon as she entered, she couldn't wait to say, "Tell me how you did it."
The Third Prince saw that she was no longer listless, and raised his lips slightly, and said to the eunuch: "Invite the Second Prince over, and bring some food."
"Yes." The eunuch responded and retreated.
"Sit anywhere."
Jiang Yueyang nodded and sat down at random. After a while, the palace maid brought in tea and snacks.
The third prince waved his hand, "You all retreat."
Upon hearing this, the eunuchs and palace maids on duty in the hall bowed and retreated, leaving only the Third Prince's personal eunuch Nian Gao behind.
"Your Highness, can you tell me now?"
"What's the hurry?"
The third prince opened the teapot and saw that it contained warm water, so he poured a cup for Jiang Yueyang.
"Try this peach blossom cake and tuckahoe cake first to see if they are delicious."
Originally, the Third Prince also planned to bring Jiang Yueyang here to meet his second brother today, so he ordered people to prepare these things in advance.
Jiang Yueyang didn't really want to eat it, but seeing the Third Prince's expectant look, she reached out and took a piece of peach cake.
After she took a bite, her eyes lit up slightly. She took another bite until she finished the peach blossom cake.
Seeing this, the Third Prince propped up his chin and said, "Sure enough, girls all love to eat this cake."
"Your Highness, don't you like to eat?"
"Third brother doesn't like sweet food."
The two of them instinctively looked in the direction of the sound and saw the Second Prince walking in from the door.
"These pastries were specially prepared by my third brother for Lord Xiao Jiang." The second prince said as he walked up to the two of them.
Jiang Yueyang bowed to him and said, "Your Highness, the Second Prince."
"Who said I prepared it specially for her? I wanted to eat it myself." The third prince denied it.
"Then you eat one." The second prince smiled brightly.
"Eat it if you want."
The third prince reached out to the plate, but stopped suddenly when he was about to touch the Poria cocos cake, and then took the peach blossom cake instead.
He picked up the peach blossom pastry and watched the second prince take a big bite. He felt sick of the sweetness, but still finished the whole peach blossom pastry.
The second prince smiled and shook his head, "Don't force yourself to eat if you can't finish it."
“Who said I can’t eat it? I can still eat another one.” The third prince said as he reached out to the peach blossom pastry again.
As soon as he picked up the peach blossom pastry, Jiang Yueyang took it away from his hand.
"Your Highness, your expression betrays you. Why do you insist on eating when you can't? It's ridiculous."
The Third Prince: “…”
Jiang Yueyang looked at the Second Prince, "Your Highness, you have changed a lot."
"Is there?"
"Yeah, I've become more cheerful." Jiang Yueyang pointed to the corner of her mouth, "Since His Highness came in, the smile on the corner of my mouth has never faded."
The second prince was stunned. He really didn't notice that he had been laughing.
The Third Prince took the peach blossom cake from Jiang Yueyang's hand and said as he ate it, "Second brother is indeed much happier than before."
This time, the third prince did not show the bitter expression as before, and seemed to be enjoying the meal quite a lot.
After a while, they talked about the second prince returning to the palace.
The second prince said, “Since Lord Xiao Jiang asked me to walk out of that place by myself, I thought about it for two days.
Since I was imprisoned there because of the superstition of a curse, if I want to get out, I must break the curse and make myself a lucky person. "
“But we cannot deceive our father, and good fortune cannot be faked. So, we think about breaking the curse first, and then doing more good deeds.” The third prince continued his words.
Jiang Yueyang asked: "So how did you break the curse?"
“Fight fire with fire.”
The third prince explained, "Father is a Buddhist. As long as Master Wu Nian says that there is no curse on my second brother, then the curse will naturally be broken."
"Oh~" Jiang Yueyang suddenly realized, "So it's magic that defeats magic. But...how did you convince Master Wu Nian? Besides, no one is allowed to enter or leave the Huguo Temple now."
The truth is, since Emperor Yuan knew that the Second Prince's symptoms were caused by poisoning, he could release him at any time.
But in order not to reveal his true feelings, he needed a suitable reason, and he also wanted to see if the second prince could give him a suitable reason.
If he can't give it, he will still be under house arrest there.
"Master Wu Nian is an accomplished monk, and my father did not restrict his movements. Since my second brother cannot come out, I sent people to guard the foot of the mountain day and night.
My people had been guarding for two full months, but Master Wu Nian did not come down the mountain. I could not stand it any longer, so I wanted to sneak up."
"Unexpectedly," the second prince continued, "My third brother had just reached the foot of the mountain when Master Wu Nian came down from the mountain."
When Jiang Yueyang heard this, he knew that Master Wu Nian must have calculated something and was waiting for the Third Prince to find him.
But, doesn’t he not change other people’s fate without permission?
The second prince went on to say, "At the repeated request of my third brother, Master Wu Nian agreed to do a calculation for me. This is what happened, and the result is what Lord Xiao Jiang is seeing now."
Jiang Yueyang didn’t understand. Since Master Wunian intended to change the fate of the second prince, why didn’t he do anything before?
