Yongzhang blocked his escape route right away. Lezhuer didn't care about Yongzhang, but he couldn't ignore the princess.
Father Khan said that she was his future wife, and he had to treat her well.
Finally, during a break, Lejur taught him the secret to spinning a copper wire top.
This little gadget looks easy, but it requires very precise control of force. Even with someone to teach you, you still need to figure it out yourself.
Fortunately, boys are usually talented at this kind of thing. With Lejur's guidance, Yongzhang mastered the technique after studying it for half a day. After returning to the palace, he immediately began to show off his amazing skill of spinning copper wire tops to his younger brother.
The top spun fast and steadily, and the Fifth Prince looked at his elder brother with admiration, clapping for him incessantly. Yongzhang took the opportunity to coax him into calling him "brother".
The Fifth Prince tried his best and finally awkwardly called out "Brother." Although his pronunciation was not very clear, it was the first time Yongzhang had heard his younger brother call him "Brother," and his joy was palpable.

Su Yushan intended for Yongzhang and Lezhuer to spend more time together, hoping to ease the tension between them. After this incident, Yongzhang stopped treating Lezhuer coldly and would greet him when they met. Lezhuer would respond, but he would not take the initiative to talk to Yongzhang. He was indifferent to everyone and focused only on learning Han Chinese culture, not caring about anything else.
Regardless, it was a good thing that things had eased somewhat. Su Yushan was preoccupied with the children's affairs and had completely forgotten about Hongli. It wasn't until she paid her respects to the Empress Dowager and overheard the Empress Dowager talking to the other concubines that she suddenly remembered the triennial imperial concubine selection was approaching again, and the selection would begin at the end of the month!
