"Princess!" He raised his voice but before he could think that he got the power of intimidation, Li Xue injected with higher authority.
"It's Your Highness for you, Prince Su." Her tone repeated the warning her eyes gave earlier. "Being the prince who has been brought up in the royal environment ever since, I hope you have learnt how to address the royal authorities. Especially the authority who is next in the line."
