Chapter 913: Chapter 913 War Prince

"Miss, please wait a moment, I’ll immediately go and report to the Fourth Prince," the Palanquin Porter was an understanding person. Hearing Xuexue say this, he instantly agreed.

Who would have guessed that just as he turned around, a fast horse was galloping from behind the carriage procession.

"Clip-clop, clip-clop!"

Where the horse hooves passed, they raised a great cloud of dust.

The Palanquin Porter quickly stopped in his tracks, fixing his eyes to see the man sitting on the jujube red horse was the Fourth Prince, dressed in a purple brocade robe fluttering in the wind, his tall and fit figure sitting on the horse looking exceptionally gallant.

"May the Fourth Prince be blessed with peace and prosperity," the Palanquin Porter hurriedly performed a kneeling salute.

"That’s enough, that’s enough, we are outside, no need for such formalities."

"Thank you, Fourth Prince."

"What exactly happened? Why has the palanquin stopped?"

"Reporting to the Fourth Prince, I was just about to report to you that the Miss wishes to return directly to the General’s Mansion from here."

So that was the case.

After hearing the situation, the Fourth Prince spurred his horse forward, stopping right in front of Xuexue’s palanquin and loudly said: "Miss Situ, since you are returning to the General’s Mansion from here, I shall take my leave now. When I am free someday, I will surely pay a personal visit to the General’s Mansion."

At this point in time, Xuexue’s wings were not yet full-grown, and it was not the time to turn against this scoundrel of a man. Xuexue knew this well, however, she did not leave her palanquin, didn’t even lift the curtain, she simply said loudly from inside: "This servant lady takes her leave from the Fourth Prince."

Facing Xuexue’s indifference, the Fourth Prince didn’t mind.

Indeed, at this critical moment of competing for heirship, it was important to curry favor with the major forces in the court. What counted as romantic affections?

Someday, when he becomes the supreme ruler, the harem would be filled with beautiful women; what women couldn’t he have? There was no need to rush at this moment.

Xuexue’s palanquin was lifted out from the procession and headed straight down the main road.

Meanwhile, Situtu Qinger, in order to catch one more glimpse of the Fourth Prince, insisted on following the Fourth Prince’s entourage.

War Prince’s Mansion

Ever since the day she returned from the outing, Madam Wang had been restless.

"Madam, seeing you so restless and haggard these last two days, is there something troubling your mind?"

Yuyu, holding a cup of tea in her hands, handed it to Madam Wang: "This is a cup of Calming Tea, drinking it should make you feel better."

"Mhm!" Madam Wang took the tea, took a small sip, then put down the cup and sighed: "Unable to eat or sleep, how could I not look haggard?"

"Is there something on your mind, Madam?"

"Ah, you little girl, even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand; it would only add to my troubles." Madam Wang propped her chin with her hand, her mind racing as she pondered how to trick the War Prince into consuming the item given by The Emperor.

"Indeed, as a maid who doesn’t recognize a single big character, I am also deeply aware that I cannot alleviate your worries."

Madam Wang was absent-minded: "Yuyu, go outside and see if the Prince has come back yet."

For two days, she had been trying to find a way to see the War Prince, but to no avail, she had been anxious. She must complete the task given by The Emperor, otherwise, the fate of her family members in The Emperor’s hands would definitely not be spared.

"Yes!" Yuyu replied and went out.

The madams and concubines in the mansion dreaded meeting the War Prince as if he were a ghost, preferring not to see him once in an entire year, hoping for a long and healthy life. Yet Madam Wang, always finding reasons to wander around the Prince.

In less than Half a Cup of Tea’s time, Yuyu returned, quickly walking up to Madam Wang and respectfully said: "Reporting to Madam, the Prince has returned and is currently in the study."

"That’s wonderful!" Madam Wang jumped up in an instant.

"Madam..." Yuyu hesitated, as if she had more to say yet was unfinished.
