The ninth Prince's innocent look made it impossible for anyone to believe that he was intentionally saying this to mock the first Prince Tian Tian.
He was especially sincere, and there was not a single bit of impurity in his eyes. Even first Prince Tian Tian could not be angry.
After much persuasion, he finally rejected the invitation because there would be a banquet in the palace after the martial arts competition.
Ninth Prince, no matter how silly you are, can you still fight with your father for her? You should understand this logic.
What first Prince Tian Tian didn't know was that the ninth Prince knew everything and had purposely said this to disgust him!
If it wasn't for the fact that the palace was holding a banquet, he wouldn't have dared to bring it up. He was afraid that if he did, first Prince Tian Tian's brain would go haywire and he would agree to it.
In the evening, the ninth Prince went to the Gu family to freeload for dinner.
