Governor Lu nodded, indicating a sense of helplessness.
"The little maid I arranged to send to Xiang Ying not only found that her attitude was the same, but even Crown Prince Xiang Li was as unshakeable as an old monk in meditation."
The little maid went to deliver water to Xiang Li. Following Governor Lu's instructions, she repeated to Xiang Li exactly what she had said to Xiang Ying.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Li just sat quietly on the couch, silent.
The little maid was uncertain of his attitude and repeatedly tried to get his attention.
"Your Highness, Your Highness?"
"Don't disturb me," Xiang Li spoke calmly and gently, yet with a sense of detachment, "I'm basking in the sun."
When Governor Lu relayed the message to Sixth Prince exactly as he had learned it, it was clear to see Sixth Prince's face turning an ashen blue.
