He rose happily, performed a bow, and said, "Mingxuan thanks Your Majesty. Your Majesty is wise."
These words were spoken from the heart, true in the same way gold was true.
The Emperor smiled faintly.
Yue Mingxuan's temperament was indeed rather straightforward, his fondness for money was open and unashamed, making him something of an exception among princes.
Seeing that the Emperor was in a good mood, Imperial Consort Hua cautiously said, "Your Majesty, this concubine believes that Prince Yue has suffered such great grievance, and tracing it back to the root, it still stems from his friendship with Shan'er. When children are young and inexperienced, they often mistake childhood companionship for vows of eternal devotion… Why not take this opportunity to arrange a good marriage for Prince Yue? When the time comes, we can hold a grand ceremony for him, it would also be a happy occasion for our Beirong imperial family."
