Yue Mingxuan took out a small piece of broken gold and pressed it into Shuyu's hand.
After some polite protest, he accepted it.
Once they parted ways, Yue Mingxuan returned directly to his courtyard.
Sui He who was tidying the room was surprised to see him back so early. "Your Highness, why have you returned so early today?"
Yue Mingxuan replied with a hint of frustration, "I went to wait by the stump, but no rabbit showed up."
Sui He's brow furrowed. "Your Highness, did you go to catch a rabbit?"
Yue Mingxuan sighed. "Yes… I tried to catch two, but neither could be caught."
Sui He continued her work, speaking without pause. "Your Highness, if you want rabbits, it's not difficult. There's a group of them raised behind the Imperial Kitchen. I can catch two for you right away."
Yue Mingxuan shook his head. "These rabbits are not those rabbits."
