The Crown Prince squinted his eyes at him, "Are you threatening me?"
"No," Bai Shan denied, "Your humble servant is advising Your Highness."
"Servant?" The Crown Prince sized him up. Given his young age, it naturally wouldn't be possible for him to have an official position in the court. The ones who could call themselves "servant" were... he asked, "Are you a student of the Imperial Academy?"
"Yes, your servant is a student at the Imperial Academy."
Most in the Imperial Academy were either descendants of those granted favor, or particularly outstanding scholars who had passed its examinations. Those who emerged from there were never simple characters.
The Crown Prince didn't like the people from the Imperial Academy very much because the students there were even closer to Third. Therefore, he was not very fond of Bai Shan.
But at this moment, he didn't want to waste too much time on such matters, so he waved his hand, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
