Chapter 422: 213 Small Clean Space Fighting Counterfeits

Qin Chuyu’s foray into the palace with his little buddies was with the consent of his sister-in-law, the Prince’s wife, who had made all the arrangements so that his identity would not be revealed.

The entrance to the Imperial Palace has three doors. The largest and tallest door in the middle is generally only used by the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and the Crown Prince’s couple. Ministers usually use the side doors on either side.

Qin Chuyu, as the legitimate royal son and brother of the Crown Prince, is also allowed to use the middle door.

Xu Zhuzhu, who is a year younger than Qin Chuyu and is seven years old this year, hasn’t visited the palace before. But he knows that his father goes to court every day through the side door.

When he entered through the central door, he instantly felt he could brag about it to his father when he got home.

Little Monk was oblivious to such distinctions. All he could think of was how enormous the palace seemed. Even the doors were huge, like a giant beast with its mouth wide open, and they were now walking into its belly.

It felt quite novel.

The carriage moved along the long drive, stopping outside the East Palace.

The East Palace serves as the sleeping quarters of the Crown Prince. Ordinary princes do not have the privilege of residing there. However, who could deny Qin Chuyu, the little prince? He could live wherever he wanted, the Emperor didn’t restrict him by the rules that much.

Qin Chuyu was the first to jump off the carriage, followed by his two little friends. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Earlier, before meeting his friends, Qin Chuyu, with the help of his sister-in-law, had already planned the itinerary — they were forbidden from visiting the Empress’s sleeping quarters. However, they were free to explore his elder brother’s East Palace. They could then play hide and seek in the Imperial Garden and go boating on Taiye Pool.

The servants had received their instructions in advance: they were not to be seen if not necessary.

Qin Chuyu took the lead on the small path in the East Palace and proudly said, “So, what do you think? My… cough, cough! The Imperial Palace is big, right? This is the East Palace, where the Crown Prince lives. But also, the smartest, cutest, and cleverest seventh prince of Zhan Country lives here.”

That’s me, Qin Chuyu!

Not far away, a palace maid cleaning the yard twitched the corner of her mouth. The Seventh Prince used to be less boastful, who’s influenced him?

“Achoo!” Little Monk sneezed.

The East Palace is enormous, with a main hall, two side halls, and several small courtyards. One of these courtyards is specially designated for Qin Chuyu. The Princess had arranged for a swing, a rockery, and a wooden horse to be set up for him.

Qin Chuyu had grown tired of playing with these things, and Xu Zhuzhu’s home had all these and even more. The truth is that in order to prevent the princes from indulging in playthings, there are fewer toys in the palace than in the outside world.
