The Elder Prince had been residing at the border for years and had not yet been given the title of lord, or a mansion. The Elder Prince would normally spend the New Year in the capital at the reception of the letter. At that time, the Elder Prince would reside in the palace for young princes.

Currently, only the Elder Prince lived there.

So when the Min Family brought the Elder Prince back to the capital this time, things were different.

The Elder Prince should not be living in the princes' place at this age, but he did not have a mansion either. So all Min Qing could do was to take the Elder Prince to the court so that they could meet the King first before finding out where to go.

Min Qing's mission was to bring the man back, so the mission was complete when the prince was back.

***

Outside Qianqing Palace.

Min Qing greeted the Elder Prince politely and said, "Elder Prince, please wait here a little while, I will go announce your arrival to the King."

The Elder Prince nodded and smiled politely.

He was the Elder Prince, true, but in the capital, he was probably in an even worse position than Min Qing's family. He could do nothing as a prince who was not allowed to stay in the capital.

The Elder Prince was very aware of this point, so he had been treating Min Qing politely on the way here. He did not throw any temper tantrums. Besides, Min Qing was very polite. He stuck to the rules and that made the Elder Prince want to throw his temper even less.

He believed that his father must have some arrangements to bring him back to the court through Min Qing, and he was sure that his days to come would be better than his old days at the border.

However, the Elder Prince did not dare to offend Min Qing.

He had no support in the capital. He was alone.

The Elder Prince felt a bit sad.

Seeing Min Qing returning to Qianqing Palace, he had his teeth clenched and eyes filled with hope.

It was in May… so it was still half a year before the New Year arrived.

Father didn't summon him back to the court because of the banquet.

On the way home, he had been thinking a lot. He was sure that this was a great opportunity for him to gain back his position. He was not ambitious enough to take the throne, but he did not want to return to the border. It was not a place for people to live.

As long as… As long as his father treated him as his son like he did to his other brothers, and as long as his father could give him a title and a mansion so that he could live a normal life, he would be very satisfied.

The Elder Prince held his fists tightly and he felt sweat dripping along his forehead.

He was really nervous.

Indeed…

Min Qing was already at Qianqing Palace.

He greeted the King politely.

The King asked subconsciously at the sight of him. "What are you doing here?"

Min Qing almost stiffened hearing the words. Then he showed a look of surprise.

The King personally told the Min Family to bring the Elder Prince back.

Wasn't the King thinking about this at all?

The Prince was already here.

Min Qing reminded him with a serious look on his face. "I took the mission to bring the Elder Prince back home, and now he is waiting outside Qianqing Palace."

"…"

"King, have you not arranged accomodation for the Elder Prince or his future path?"

Min Qing had noticed how the King treated the Elder Prince, so he defended the Elder Prince to some degree.

"Oh, the Elder Prince…"
