TRANSLATOR'S NOTES:
Hope you guys didn't forget Long Xiang!! He's a good kid Just a reminder of soe) Long Xiang will later be named Grand Prince of Yu, which is a title, which is different fro Yu, who is the crown prince at the ain, in Chinese, the characters are pretty different and easier to tell apart ?
