The Second Prince and Fourth Prince looked at each other and nodded, saying, "Everything is according to the imperial father's wishes."
The Emperor was very happy upon hearing this, and said repeatedly, "Good, good, ha ha...!"
The Fourth Prince glanced at the Eldest Prince and said, "Imperial Brother, you seem so confident, always talking about what we'd put forward if we lost, what would you put forward if you lost?"
The Emperor laughed and said, "Yes, yes, Eldest Imperial Son, you haven't said anything about yourself yet?"
The Eldest Prince pointed to the Jade Pendant hanging at his waist. "This piece is Hetian Jade, also of immense value, gifted by the Mother Consort. If I lose, I'll put this jade forward."
The Second Prince and Fourth Prince said in unison, "Good."
This piece of Hetian Jade, they'd heard Empress Mother say long ago, was priceless. If the Eldest Prince brings it out, it was no blame on them.
