Chapter 258 Everyone is happy
"You are my master."
The unwavering words only fueled the Seventh Prince's rage. Ignoring the attention it would draw, he swept everything off the table and onto the floor.
Bang! Porcelain shattered.
An Shiyi remained motionless as a flying porcelain piece grazed his face, drawing blood immediately.
"Master, what happened?"
The eunuch Wang outside immediately came over and knocked on the door to ask.
The Seventh Prince's chest heaved violently as he said in a low voice, "It's nothing, the vase just fell over."
"Then this servant will come in and tidy up. Master, please don't move, or you'll prick yourself."
Wang the eunuch cursed inwardly, thinking, "Who's so careless? The vase wasn't placed properly. What if it hurts my master?" He then went to open the door.
"Master, this servant has come in."
"Don't come in. You don't need to guard it anymore. We'll clean it up tomorrow."
"Yes, master."
After replying somewhat hesitantly, Eunuch Wang instructed the guards to keep watch.
Eunuch Wang sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard, determined to remain on guard.
His master was very angry today, but surprisingly didn't get angry when the vase fell over tonight, which made him a little worried.
Hearing that there was no more movement outside, the Seventh Prince looked at the guards again.
The secret of being a bodyguard was a secret between myself and my brother, unknown even to my mother, so of course I couldn't let anyone else know.
"Brother, did you say anything else?"
The Seventh Prince sat down and asked.
"The Sixth Master said that you should not act rashly. He has other arrangements for Jia Hu's matter. He will write to you about other things."
The secret guards communicated via carrier pigeons, which could only carry a few words, making the correspondence slower.
"This time I'll listen to my brother. As for you, you should think carefully about whose side to take."
After the guards left, the Seventh Prince lay down on the bed, thinking about his guards.
Since the guards came to his side, they have always obeyed his words without asking why.
But as they grew older, they discovered that whenever it involved their brother, the bodyguards would start asking their brother for instructions.
The seventh prince turned over in frustration, knowing how important his brother's great cause was.
Their current obsequiousness to their father and their extreme tolerance of certain people are all for the sake of their brother ascending to the throne one day. Once their brother is on that throne, they will surely make those people wish they were dead!
Jia Hu and the others escorted them all the way, and the young prince and Situ Yi only returned at the crossroads.
The two Jia brothers, Lin Ruhai, and Situ Yi had a very pleasant conversation. Situ Yi spoke with great tact and discretion, which made people feel very comfortable.
Lin Ruhai also sighed, "As expected of a member of the royal family, his demeanor is so dignified, and he has such a profound understanding of things at such a young age."
The younger ones agreed to go out together tomorrow, and when they returned, they wouldn't come back to the capital from here. They didn't know if they would have the chance to come again, and they all wanted to send things to their families in the capital.
On the way back, the young prince was in a good mood and walked briskly and lightly.
Situ Yi had a pleasant chat tonight. Talking with knowledgeable people is always very rewarding. Seeing his nephew like this, he couldn't help but smile and say:
"Are you that happy?"
"I'm so happy!"
If the young prince hadn't been being watched by someone outside, he probably would have jumped up and down a couple of times.
The southern tour started with a rush of travel, and before we could even properly enjoy ourselves, there were corrupt officials, which was infuriating. Now that those corrupt officials have been executed, we can finally go out and have fun tomorrow. How could we not be happy?
"Okay, as long as you're happy."
The young prince looked at his uncle and smiled, feeling that today was truly wonderful and everyone was happy.
The next day, the young prince went to pay his respects, but the emperor told him to go out and play by himself, and to stay with the two dukes and the guards.
A group of people went out and had a great time for a day. After resting, they started their next stop.
