After hearing this, the Fifteenth Prince said with a serious face, "Because you did a good job, I like what you did."
Jiang Ranli was filled with dismay when she heard this. It was not because the Fifteenth Prince said he liked what she did, but because he kept calling himself "Master". He was only in his teens, but he acted so arrogantly.
Sighing, Jiang Ranli said, "I don't want to do it, you can find someone else."
Upon seeing this, the Fifteenth Prince lowered his eyes and gave the Sixteenth Prince a look while Jiang Ranli was not paying attention. Then, the Sixteenth Prince, who had been smiling, burst into tears.
His crying was not a big deal, it immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience. The eldest prince, the third prince, the fourth prince, the thirteenth prince, and the seventeenth prince all looked in her direction.
"What's wrong? Don't cry first."
Yinzhen originally thought that it would be nice to have someone to talk to Jiang Ranli, but when he wasn't paying attention for a moment, Little Sixteen actually started crying, attracting everyone's attention.
The Sixteenth Prince was unmoved by Yin'er's words and continued to cry loudly. His originally delicate little face was now squeezed into a ball, looking particularly pitiful.
Seeing this, the Ninth Prince was at a loss. He could do anything he was asked to do, but he was not an expert in coaxing children. He could only watch the Eldest Prince and the others walk towards him.
As soon as the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince arrived, they saw the brothers surrounding Jiang Ranli and the Ninth Brother. They were so scared that they thought Jiang Ranli's identity was exposed, and they hurried over.
"Sixteenth Prince, was this palace maid disrespectful to you? Tell your brother and I will take care of it for you," the eldest prince said righteously as he looked at the crying Sixteenth Prince.
Yinzhen frowned after hearing this. Although he didn't pay attention to what Jiang Ranli said just now, he knew that Xiao Shiliu was crying, and it was definitely not because Jiang Ranli bullied him.
"Brother, this has nothing to do with my palace maid."
"Yes, big brother, this maid of Ninth Brother has always been polite, how could she possibly bully Little Sixteen."
"Xiao Shiliu, tell me why you are crying."
After Yinzhen spoke, the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince echoed him, leaving the Eldest Prince completely confused. He was just saying a few words to comfort the Sixteenth Prince, so why were these people so anxious to make excuses for that palace maid?
Thinking of this, the eldest prince looked at Yinzhen. Although the latter did not look anxious, he could not hide the concern in his eyes. Then he looked at the tenth prince and the fourteenth prince. The worry and anxiety on their faces could not be hidden.
He was worried about Lao Jiu's maid, but what were these two people doing? Even if they had a good relationship with Lao Jiu, they wouldn't do this for a maid, right?
The eldest prince thought about it and his eyes fell on Jiang Ranli who had his head down. He had followed Emperor Kangxi in many battles. Having experienced the baptism of war, his eyes were extremely intimidating. Jiang Ranli was instantly sweating profusely when he looked at him.
"Raise your head and tell us why Sixteenth Prince is crying," the eldest prince said to Jiang Ranli.
Jiang Ranli, with her head down, felt helpless. When she was fifteen or sixteen, he pestered her for playing cards every day, and she didn't think anything of it. But today, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The Sixteenth Prince had stopped crying as soon as the Eldest Prince started speaking. Seeing the Eldest Prince interrogating Jiang Ranli, he looked at his Fifteenth Brother with tears in his eyes.
The Fifteenth Prince signaled him with his eyes to look at the Fourth Prince and the Thirteenth Prince beside him, and with his little hands hanging by his side, signaled him to be patient, and then he looked at the Eldest Prince and spoke.
"Brother, Ninth Brother's maid was not disrespectful to Little Sixteen. Little Sixteen cried just because she wanted to play a game called Landlord."
Hearing this, the eldest prince frowned. He didn't know what wanting to play games had to do with Yin'er's palace maids, and why Little Sixteen was crying just because she wanted to play games. Also, what kind of game was Landlord?
