Feeling a little vexed, Little Treasure said to his second brother, who was following closely behind him, "Can you wait for me in the palace?"
The Second Prince, who had recently been given his proper name, shook his head repeatedly. "Brother Crown Prince, you promised to bring me out of the palace. Don't go back on your word."
Little Treasure was very vexed. He had something important to do today and couldn't leave with his second brother.
The Second Prince looked at him eagerly, a look of anticipation in his eyes.
"You haven't finished your homework yet. If you leave the palace with me, you'll be punished by your teacher tomorrow."
