章 1148: 441: Quarrel_2

Empress: ...

"You understand nothing? Why don't you learn more from your elder brother, look how he treats your sister-in-law."

"Su Xinyi? With her temperament, would my brother dare to mistreat her? If not careful, she might just take a spear and charge into Duke Qin Mansion, stirring up chaos in the Eastern Palace. My brother simply wants some peace, he doesn't bother to stoop to her level."

The Empress rubbed her forehead, seeing right through her son's insincere protest, his refusal to concede verbally.

Prince Rong walked away dejectedly. On the way back, he mulled over his words and realized he was right. Who would want to provoke someone with Su Xinyi's temperament? Besides, the marriage was arranged by their father, the emperor. What could his brother do?

As he walked, he unexpectedly ran into Prince Xiang; the two men came face to face.

Prince Xiang recovered quickly from the surprise, saluted with a cupped fist, and said, "Seventh brother."
