Prince Jia was on guard. "No need."
The young eunuch continued, "This is a handkerchief specially prepared for you by His Highness. Please use it."
Only then did Prince Jia notice that there seemed to be something pressed under the handkerchief on the tray.
Deng Yuchuan sensed the commotion here. He stopped what he was doing and turned to look at the young eunuch. Seeing that there was a basin of clear water and a handkerchief on the tray and nothing special, he looked away and continued with his business.
Prince Jia looked at Deng Yuchuan, who was focused on dripping blood, and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he extended his hands and soaked them in a basin of water. He casually washed them with warm water and picked up a handkerchief to wipe his hands.
After the handkerchief was picked up, the bright yellow silk cloth hidden under it was revealed.
Prince Jia recognized at a glance that this was the tribute silk used by imperial edicts.
