Chapter 1133: Objection (2)

Huili’s expression changed drastically. She glared at Xiu’er and hurriedly tugged at her to kneel down and beg for forgiveness.

Little An waved his hand and said nonchalantly, “This has nothing to do with you. But you’re Brother Crown Prince’s personal attendant? Why haven’t we seen you before?”

Huili blushed slightly and said softly, “I have just recently been sent to serve His Highness.”

She became a personal attendant so shortly?

Was she sent by their royal aunt?

But they had never seen her in the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.

Little An was a little puzzled, but Tiger Head impatiently tugged at him and said, “Let’s hurry. I’m starving.”

Qi Wensu looked at Little An and then at Huili. Thinking of the news he had heard in the Palace of Earthly Tranquility over the past two days, he whispered into Little An’s ear, “She had been sent by Royal Mother to teach Brother Crown Prince about the affairs between a man and a woman. She can be considered a personal attendant.”

Tiger Head and Little Lion also heard it and looked at Huili in shock.

Huili’s face turned even redder, while Xiu’er looked at them proudly.

In her opinion, Huili’s status was higher than theirs since she was going to sleep beside the Crown Prince in the future. When the Crown Prince ascended the throne and became the Emperor, Huili would be an Imperial Concubine.

Although she had not been in the palace for long, she knew that only those who wore yellow belts were princes. The rest were the sons of ministers who had entered the palace to accompany the princes in their studies.

However, no matter how powerful their father was, he was still a child and not royalty. How could he be as noble as Huili, a future Concubine Consort?

Hence, she did not feel that there was anything wrong with treating the children opposite her like this.

However, Huili resented her for acting like this. Xiu’er was from the same hometown as her. She knew that it was not easy to survive in the palace, so she chose Xiu’er to serve her on account of them being from the same hometown.

Firstly, they could take care of each other. Secondly, she needed loyal subordinates. However, who knew that Xiu’er would still be so stupid after entering the palace for half a year?

Huili decided to send her away when she returned. Even if she didn’t send her away, she couldn’t rely on such a person.

Keeping such a person by one’s side could bring endless troubles.

Seeing that the four young masters were still staring at her with wide eyes, Huili’s face turned even redder. She stood awkwardly for a while before saying in a low voice, “If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first.”

Little An whispered into Wensu’s ear, “Are you sure she’s Brother Crown Prince’s handmaid?”

Wensu nodded. “I’ve seen her at Royal Mother’s place. Other than her, there’s another one. That one isn’t as pretty as her.”

Little An and the others were even more shocked. Imperial Physician Wang had taught them in their Yin-Yang theory class that it was best for men not to have sex before the age of 17.

Since it concerned the health of their Brother Crown Prince, Little An and the twins became anxious. They grabbed Wensu and ran towards the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.

Wensu couldn’t leave the palace after school, so he didn’t attend Imperial Physician Wang’s class with them. Although he knew that they had recently learned a new “Yin-Yang theory”, he only knew that it was about the distinction between the sexes and didn’t know the details.

Seeing that they were rushing to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility with urgency, he hurriedly asked what had happened.

Little An explained briefly. In short, due to the Crown Prince’s young age, it was not healthy in the physical and mental sense to take a handmaid at this time.

For the sake of the Crown Prince’s health, they had to stop this from happening as soon as possible.

When Qi Wensu heard this, he also became anxious and led the way.

The four children barged into the Palace of Earthly Tranquility. The Empress, who was handling the palace affairs, put down the memorial and said to the female official beside her, “Bring them to the side hall and let them play there. Get the kitchen to prepare some food for them…”

Before she could finish speaking, the four children barged in. “Royal Mother, Royal Mother, we have something important to tell you.” Qi Wensu was sweating profusely.

Little An and the others also looked anxious as they stomped their feet and said, “Royal Aunt, we have something urgent to tell you.”

Hearing this, Li Jinghua sent out those who were reporting the palace affairs to her, leaving only the palace maids and female officials in the hall.

Li Jinghua asked with a smile, “Did you kids get into trouble again?”

The four children shook their heads, indicating that they were very obedient and never caused trouble.

Li Jinghua said with a faint smile, “Then who was the one who hid behind the rockery and threw stones at their teacher? Tell me, what’s so urgent that you have to tell me immediately?”

Little An felt a moment of shame. When he heard the Empress’s question, he immediately threw that trace of shame to the back of his mind. “Royal Aunt, we knocked down a palace maid in the garden just now…”

The smile on Li Jinghua’s face gradually disappeared. She rubbed his head and said, “Don’t worry, I will punish those two palace maids for being insolent.”

“We were the ones who bumped into them and that was our fault. Why would Royal Aunt punish them?” Little An was puzzled for a moment before stomping his feet. “Aiya, that’s not what we wanted to talk about.”

Li Jinghua found it amusing. “If you don’t wish to punish them, what is it that you want?”

Little An said clearly, “Firstly, we’re the ones who bumped into them, so that was our fault. We’ve already apologized to them and promised to send them an apology gift. How can we go back on our word and ask Royal Aunt to punish them?”

“Secondly, what we want to say is that Brother Crown Prince mustn’t have a handmaid at this age. This is harmful to one’s health. Royal Aunt, you must have been deceived by someone. Brother Crown Prince is only 14 years old. How can he have a palace maid teach him about the matters between a man and a woman? Wouldn’t this be harming Brother Crown Prince?”

Li Jinghua was stunned. Seeing that the four children were all serious, she asked, “Who taught you this?”

“Does one need to be taught? It’s written in the book.” Seeing that his royal aunt wouldn’t listen to Little An, Little Lion couldn’t help but become anxious.

Unable to recite the contents from the book, he could only look at Little An anxiously.

Little An immediately recited content from the medical book they had recently been learning from and concluded by saying this, “Imperial Physician Wang said that it’s best for a person to get married after 17 or 18 years old. This is not only beneficial to their physical and mental health, but also very important to the health of their children.”

“If one starts to have sex too early, it’ll affect their sperm count and lead to them having fewer children in the future. Even if the child is born successfully, they’ll be prone to illnesses and premature death. Fourth Aunt also said that we won’t be engaged until we turn 18. Meanwhile, Brother Crown Prince is only 14 this year.”

Li Jinghua did not know how to answer.

She was born into an aristocratic family, so she naturally knew these principles. Females from the Li family only got married when they reached the age of 16, while the males only got married when they were 17 or 18 years old. Most of the handmaids were arranged after the boys reached the age of 16 and it was only because the adults feared the boys would be seduced by other women outside. It was better to arrange a handmaid to serve them than letting them fool around outside.

Furthermore, the royal family had always matured early. In order to help the royal family produce more offspring, they naturally taught the princes about sexual matters early. It was already considered late to arrange a handmaid for Little Treasure at the age of 14. In fact, for the princes of the previous dynasty, handmaids were arranged for them after they turned 12 years old and ejaculated for the first time.

Li Jinghua opened her mouth and said after a while, “This is the royal family’s rule…”

“Bullsh*t.” The children stomped their feet. “Who set the rules?”

Little An questioned, “Are the rules more important than my Brother Crown Prince’s health?”

Little Lion directly suggested, “Isn’t Royal Uncle the one who set the rules by which the royal family have to abide? Just get him to change them.”

Tiger Head expressed his support. “I’ll beat up whoever dares to oppose this!”

Qi Wensu agreed. “Then do I also have to sleep with a palace maid when I’m 14 years old? I don’t want to! What if she kicks me off the bed?”

When this child slept with Tiger Head and Little Lion, he was always kicked off the bed.
