I can't walk when I hear the words "young and promising"

"I've heard some things, but they're probably just rumors," said Grand Tutor Yu. "How else would Prime Minister Tang know about the internal affairs of the Simu Kingdom? Could it be that you're on good terms with the Simu Kingdom's leader?"
"You can't say that," Prime Minister Tang said with an unhappy face. Grand Tutor Yu was really sinister, but it was not easy to lose his temper in front of the Queen Mother. He thought that Grand Tutor Yu was still planning to go against him. He said with a forced smile, "Grand Tutor Yu may not know that the leader of Simu State has more than 60 concubines, but it is well known throughout the country. Just ask anyone in Simu State and they will know. Moreover, this is not a taboo in their country, and the leader is even proud of it! But the weird thing is that more than 60 concubines have not given birth to a child for this leader. It is obvious whose fault it is. You let our princess marry far away, without heirs and helpless, isn't this sending a sheep into the tiger's den?"
Grand Tutor Yu: “…”
"Alright, stop arguing. I'll go ask Minzhi for his opinion myself." The Queen Mother waved her hands, looking very annoyed. "Dismiss the court!"
The envoys kneeling in the hall looked helpless. Why didn’t they ask who was going to marry the princess?
It wasn't the king with more than sixty concubines! It was the young and promising regent of their Simu Kingdom!

East Palace.
Helan Ruizhe asked Jin Suting to rest well in bed and not to run around, but she was not the kind of person who could sit idle. She went to find Mimi Xibi and wanted to ask where Qin'er had gone and if she could find her, but Mimi Xibi drove her out again. His mirror was broken and he needed to take it to be repaired. Since he couldn't see the situation outside without a mirror, Mimi Xibi only told her not to leave the East Palace.
Jin Suting was very puzzled. Since there was no mirror, why didn't she come out?
Mimi Xibi's answer was: "Without the mirror, I can't get out. The mirror is broken and my body is also damaged."
What a poor old man, Jin Suting thought sympathetically.
But what she didn't know was that Mimi Xibi's mirror could be repaired in three days, and he even gave the mirror a full body treatment.
Jin Suting's bones were sore after lying down for the whole morning, so she wandered around in the garden of the East Palace.
Summer was approaching, and the flowers in the garden were half in bloom, half out of bloom. There wasn't much to see. But the swarms of butterflies and bees really got Jin Suting excited, and for a moment, her mood brightened. She squatted in the grass and played with crickets.
She caught a gray-brown cricket and a large green cricket.
"Wolverine! Go ahead! Get him!"
"You can't do it, Hulk. You can't beat Wolverine with your size!"
"I heard that General Liu Mo brought 30,000 elite troops to support the northwest today!"
There must be a maid passing by the flowers behind her, far away, with her back to her. The maid was talking loudly, and it was definitely not her intention to eavesdrop!
"Keep your voice down!" Another maid stopped her from speaking loudly, looked around to see if there was anyone around, stopped moving forward, and ran to the pavilion to laze around.
Jin Suting didn't know why, but she subconsciously stopped her movements, changed her direction to hide more secretly, and let her Wolverine and Hulk run away. She always felt that it would be a bit bad if they found out.
The cautious maid realized that no one was around, so she said, "Don't tell anyone about this in the East Palace! If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finds out, you might still have a chance to serve here!"
"I know, I know," the loud maid lowered her voice. "I'm just curious. Why didn't His Royal Highness go with them? Didn't he decide long ago to lead his troops to the northwest?"
It seemed like he had said that. Jin Suting recalled that he had told her in person that it was on the night of the Queen Mother’s birthday banquet. That night something happened that she never wanted to recall in her life. It gave her a headache just thinking about it!
The cautious maid sighed softly and said, "You might not know this yet, but yesterday His Royal Highness the Crown Prince brought back a woman in a hurry. She has been unconscious ever since, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been guarding her the entire time, running around and even having many doctors called in. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince originally said he was going to go with the troops today, but he stayed behind because of this woman! I've been working in the Eastern Palace for four years, and I've never seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treat anyone like this! Let alone a woman!"
"Wow~" the loud maid also sighed in envy, "Who is that woman? Could she be the Crown Princess?"
"How could we possibly see that woman's true appearance?" the cautious maid lamented. "But it's definitely not our Crown Princess. She's the eldest daughter of the Jin family. If she were injured, she would return to the General's Mansion and wouldn't stay in the Eastern Palace for so long. It would be terrible if word got out."
"Ah!" The loud maid couldn't control her voice anymore. "Then the Crown Princess... Well, I thought His Royal Highness the Crown Prince liked her very much in the past, didn't he?"
"Yes, I've noticed that. In recent years, no woman has dared to enter the East Palace. I think it's a pity for the young lady of the General's Mansion," said the cautious maid. "The Crown Prince used to be very good to Miss Shi Ran, but it's still not..."
"What are you all chattering about here!" Yuan Jing's voice suddenly interrupted. The pastries in the hands of the two maids fell over and they tried to pick them up in a panic.
"Master Yuan, I know I was wrong."
"If you keep gossiping, you'll have to bite your tongue off!" Yuan Jing said sternly, frightening the two maids. "Get out of here!"
The two maids fled away.
