Ying Lili told Hu Jingguo to tell them. "The Crown Prince does not need to disguise as a woman; instead, he will be a renowned merchant who is going to the capital with his four wives," Hu Jingguo announced delightedly.

"What?" Sheng Li, Wang Hao, and Xiao Zhan said at the same time.

"Have you lost your mind?" Sheng Li bellowed at Hu Jingguo. "Do you have a death wish?" Sheng Li shouted at him.

"Your highness, you promised me that you will not be angry at me," Hu Jingguo complained and then looked at Ying Lili. "Crown Princess, it is only for show. Why is the Crown Prince getting angry?" Hu Jingguo asked.

"Shut your mouth! Do you have any idea what you are saying?" Sheng Li yelled at him.

Ying Lili frowned and peered at Sheng Li. "Why are you shouting at him? The three will be in the disguise of women. You need to lie only that you have four wives. If you cannot do this, then disguise as a woman," Ying Lili suggested to him.

"I am against both the ideas," Sheng Li announced.

Ying Lili turned her gaze towards both generals. "General Wang, General Xiao, do you have any problem with this idea? Don't you think it is the best idea to reach Luoyang? No one will doubt us," Ying Lili asserted.

"Why are you talking with them? When I said that this is the worst idea then it is! You two do not need to use your dead brain cells," Sheng Li scolded both Ying Lili and Hu Jingguo when Wang Hao intervened.

"Your highness, I think we shall go with this idea. At this moment, reaching Luoyang without getting harmed is important. I do not mind being disguised as a woman and I think that even Xiao Zhan has no problem with this," Wang Hao affirmed and then looked at Xiao Zhan who agreed with General Wang.

"Wang Hao, Xiao Zhan, it is not right," Sheng Li stated.

"Then, do you want to get killed with us? Is your stubbornness more important than our lives? It is not like you never lied. We need to cross the forest that comes before the borders where the assassins of the Empress are waiting for us. If we do not take a good disguise, then our lives may come into danger. If you do not care about your life then at least care about the lives of these three people." Ying Lili had turned infuriated because of the childish behavior of the Crown Prince. "You are the Crown Prince who shall not act stubbornly, shall not be self-centered, instead shall think wisely and be thoughtful. Yesterday's incident was not a joke. We could have got wounded badly and even worse could have happened." Ying Lili stood up from the ground and went to the tent house.

Everyone looked at Sheng Li who was feeling guilty now. "Crown Princess is enraged. She is not wrong either," Hu Jingguo said and glanced at the Crown Prince.

"Your highness, you shall go to the Crown Princess and apologize to her highness to appease her anger," Xiao Zhan asserted. Sheng Li stood up and went to the tent house. He saw Ying Lili was seated with her back on the floor mat. He opened his shoes and sat beside her.

"Forgive me. I acted inadvertently. I acted selfishly. Do not get angry at me," Sheng Li was sincere in his apologies, but Ying Lili did not look at him. Getting no response from Ying Lili, Sheng Li made her look at him.

"I do not want to talk to you," Ying Lili said, knitting her brows and not meeting the gaze of Sheng Li.

"I understand. Take some sleep and forgive me," Sheng Li said as he let go of her arm. He stood up and left from there. Ying Lili turned to look at him as he left her sight.

Outside the tent house, Hu Jingguo was telling the Generals about the anger of the Crown Princess. "She does not talk once she gets angry. The Crown Prince should not have acted that way," Hu Jingguo said.

Sheng Li, who had come there, heard Hu Jingguo. "Don't spoil my mood. I agreed with this plan and if anything goes wrong, then be ready to take the blame," Sheng Li voiced and came forward.

Hu Jingguo was bestirred upon seeing the Crown Prince there. "Why does his highness think that this plan will go wrong?" Hu Jingguo asked.

"Because none of you will look like a woman. They will get suspicious," Sheng Li stated.

"The Crown Prince is misconstruing the power of my makeup skills," Hu Jingguo cheerfully said. "Since we are on this, then we shall plan for our story which we will tell at the borders while getting checked," Hu Jingguo suggested.

"First tell me how to make Ying Lili happy," Sheng Li asked.

"I do not know. She never got angry with me," Hu Jingguo stated. Sheng Li chuckled hearing the response of Jingguo.

"I should not have asked you. Tell us about the story which we need to tell those guards at the border," Sheng Li ordered Hu Jingguo who gave a nod.

"You are a Merchant Hushu who has four wives." Sheng Li frowned when he heard the name which Ying Lili had given him from Hu Jingguo's name.

"How did you find out about that name?" Sheng Li asked.

"The Crown Princess told me that she nicknamed you as Hushu," Hu Jingguo replied. Wang Hao and Xiao Zhan giggled upon seeing the reaction of the Crown Prince.

"Why does she tell you everything?" Sheng Li murmured and suddenly stood up which baffled them. "I do not want to listen. I will come in a while. Wang Hao, make sure that the Crown Princess will have her dinner," Sheng Li ordered and left the conversation in the middle.

"His highness indeed has terrible mood swings," Hu Jingguo mumbled and looked at the Generals. "I will go after his highness," Hu Jingguo stated and walked away.
