In the evening, Zhao Yao returned from the Eighth Prince's quarters after dinner and saw Dou Le waiting at the entrance of his courtyard. He hurried over.
As soon as Dou Le saw Zhao Yao, he stepped forward and greeted Zhao Yao with a bow: "Greetings, Your Highness the Tenth." Saying this, he took a letter from his chest and handed it to Zhao Yao. "Your Highness the Tenth, this is a letter from the Prince for you."
Zhao Yao happily took the letter, saying, "I figured you would be bringing me a letter soon."
Nearby, Tong Xi joked, "Dou Le, if you didn't bring His Highness Prince Chu's letter today, His Highness would have been anxious these past few days."
Dou Le smiled and said, "I know His Highness the Tenth has been waiting for the Prince's letter, afraid that His Highness would be anxious, so as soon as I received it, I brought it."
