Drive a RV and go farming in ancient times.

There was quite a lot of noise last night and several children were woken up, but Han Jun protected them and did not let them show up. Only during breakfast did he have the chance to ask Xu Huaiyi.

"Uncle Xu, have those thieves been caught? Have you found out who sent them?"

"Brother, what are they here for?"

"Dad, did you pry open their mouths?"

Xu Huaiyi did not make excuses just because they were children. He responded one by one, "Five people came and were arrested. Thanks to the medicine given by Doctor Jiao, we saved a lot of trouble. We are not sure what they came for. They confessed, but what they said may not be the truth. So, we have to continue to investigate the details."

Lu Changzhi asked curiously, "Uncle Xu, which family did they tell?"

Xu Huaiyi said shockingly, "They said it was the Fourth Prince's men."

Lu Changzhi exclaimed "Ah", obviously startled, and subconsciously turned to look at his grandfather.

Jiang Yong was stunned for a moment. It was not because he was surprised to hear the title of the Fourth Prince, but because he did not expect Xu Huaiyi to say it so calmly.

Xu Huaiyi explained with a smile, "The children are not young anymore. They need to be exposed to some things they should know, so that they don't know nothing and are taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives. They can't just study."

You have to understand all kinds of conspiracies and intrigues.

Jiang Yong nodded, understanding what he meant. He also knew that he knew what he was doing and would know how to strike the right balance, so he did not stop him.

The identities of these children are not simple, and they will have to face these problems sooner or later. He feels relieved to let Xu Huaiyi teach them. He knows that they have both scheming means and moral bottom line, and they will not go astray in the future.

Sun Yongyan asked thoughtfully, "Brother, is he really the Fourth Prince's man?"

Xu Huaiyi said casually, "That's what those people said. At first they refused to speak, and I had to use some tricks to pry them open."

Sun Yongyan asked again, puzzled, "But why did the Fourth Prince do this? What's his purpose?"

Xu Huaiyi said helplessly, "Because I had some conflicts with the Qiao family before and humiliated them, the Fourth Prince thought that I was not respectful enough to him, so he sent someone to teach me a lesson."

Sun Yongyan was skeptical, "Is that it?"

Xu Huaiyi spread his hands, "That's what the other party said."

Lu Changzhi said, "I think the other party is probably lying."

Jiang Yi, who had been silent the whole time, said softly, "I agree with my cousin. They are probably trying to pass the blame to the Fourth Prince. Uncle Xu, please don't fall for it."

Xu Huaiyi looked at him with a smile, "What's the reason?"

Jiang Yi was a little shy, but he still looked straight at him and expressed his opinion, "If they were really sent by His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, they would have tried to commit suicide if their mission failed, but they couldn't stand the interrogation and confessed. This doesn't seem like someone trained by the royal family."

Xu Huaiyi nodded, "They are definitely not assassins. I can't tell which family they belong to."

"Do you have any guesses?"

Even if there is one, I can't tell you. Xu Huaiyi shook his head, "It's hard to guess. After all, I have offended quite a few people now, and there are even more people who are jealous of me. Who knows who they are?"

"What should I do?"

"What's your opinion?"

The children looked at each other. No matter how smart they were, they had no experience in dealing with this kind of thing and their brows were furrowed for a moment.

Teaching children is also an important subject, and one must strike the right balance. Gu Huanxi saw that the test was almost over, and if he continued to make things difficult, the child's self-confidence would be dampened, so he said, "Don't keep us in suspense, are you also at a loss?"

Xu Huaiyi cooperated and said, "There really is no good way, so I sent those people to the Qiao family and asked them to investigate."

When the children heard this, their eyes lit up. This method was not very clever, but it was a way, especially to get rid of some hot potatoes.

"Brother, can the Qiao family find out?"

"I don't know about that. It depends on their ability. Anyway, if they can't find out, we will be helpless." Xu Huaiyi concluded, "This incident tells you that sometimes what you see and hear may not be the truth. It may also be a smokescreen deliberately put up by others to confuse you and influence your decision so that they can use it. It would be stupid to be used as a knife in their hands without knowing it..."

Gu Xiaoyu took over the conversation, "So? How should we deal with this kind of thing?"

Xu Huaiyi pointed to his head and said seriously, "You must have your own judgment. Don't just follow what others say, and don't be arbitrary. Of course, if you want your judgment to be correct, you have to read more, think more, and gain more knowledge. Only in this way can you avoid being confused and at a loss when encountering things, and thus make the wrong choice and regret it."

Several children nodded in agreement.

Xu Huaiyi warned again, "Remember, it's better to be a little stupid than to be smart."

Lu Changzhi was puzzled. He blinked his beautiful peach blossom eyes and asked in a naive way, "Why?"

Xu Huaiyi explained, "If you are a little bit stupid, at most you won't be able to accomplish anything, but if you are too smart, you will often get into big trouble."

Lu Changzhi seemed to understand but not quite.

Jiang Yong smiled and said, "Keep it in mind for now. With more experience, you will slowly understand it."

"Yes, Grandpa."

Sun Yongyan asked, "Brother, should we tell our father about this?"

Xu Huaiyi nodded, "I'll tell you guys to be more careful recently. If someone is planning to take advantage of you, don't let them take advantage of you."

The children responded solemnly.

After dinner, Jiang Yong asked Xu Huaiyi privately, "You really don't doubt the target?"

Xu Huaiyi smiled bitterly and said, "The Su family, Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, or even the Qiao family are all very likely. Or maybe they are fighting and using me as a scapegoat. It's really hard to guess. It seems like everyone has a motive."

Jiang Yong pondered and said, "There are not many people who dare to blame the Fourth Prince. Ordinary merchants don't have the courage to do that. So, it shouldn't be because they are jealous of you for stealing their business..."

Xu Huaiyi echoed, "Yeah, I think so too. It must be someone's doing..."

Jiang Yong sighed, "You haven't even started your career yet, but you've already been dragged into this. It may be because of me that you've been implicated..."

Xu Huaiyi quickly interrupted him, "It has nothing to do with you. It's my own problem. I've done a lot of things in the past six months, which inevitably bothers someone. I have a lot of friends, so they use me as a raft. They can wait until now to make a move, so I think I've made a profit."

Jiang Yong asked with a complicated expression, "You're not worried, afraid, or angry?"

Xu Huaiyi smiled and said carelessly, "When the enemy comes, we will fight back. When the water comes, we will block it with earth. There is no point in being afraid. As for getting angry? It's not worth it. Everyone in the capital is on the chessboard. Unless you are a small person who is so mediocre that no one looks down on you, you are not qualified to enter this game. But we can't make ourselves losers who can't stand up to the stage just for the sake of stability, right?"

"you……"

"I don't have ambitions, but I'm not afraid of trouble. If you want to cause trouble for me, you have to consider your own weight."

After Xu Huaiyi left, Uncle Zhong said thoughtfully, "Master, Master Xu seems to have someone to rely on. Could it be the Sun family?"

Jiang Yong shook his head. "It can't be the Sun family. Huaiyi has always been very tactful in dealing with the Sun family."

"Then it could be..."

"It certainly won't be me. This kid may look playful and smiling, but he's actually very proud and won't take advantage of others."

Uncle Zhong was puzzled, "Then where does his confidence come from?"

Ordinary people would have been panicked if they were attacked by unknown people seeking revenge, especially when it involved the prince. Who wouldn't be trembling with fear and treading on thin ice? After all, the slightest mistake would result in beheading, but Xu Huaiyi obviously didn't take it to heart, and even had the energy to take the opportunity to teach the child. That kind of light-hearted attitude was not a fake calmness.

Jiang Yong pondered for a moment and said with a smile, "Perhaps it comes from his own ability. He is skilled and courageous, and Huaiyi has the demeanor of a great general!"

Uncle Zhong was worried, "But after all..."

Jiang Yong interrupted, "Make an appointment with Lu Jiaxue for me."

Lu Jiaxue, the prime minister of the time, was also Lu Changzhi's grandfather.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Zhong couldn't help but sigh. Xu Huaiyi was so lucky that the master could do so much for him. When the bookstore opened before, he used his connections to pave the way for him. Now even Prime Minister Lu was brought in. Although the Jiang family and the Lu family were relatives, the master didn't want to get involved in the disputes in the court, so he always avoided suspicion with the Lu family.

Now, no one cares about it anymore. What virtue and ability does Xu Huaiyi have?

How could Xu Huaiyi know? If he had to say it, he would definitely think that it was his personality charm that touched the other party, like Sun Yu, who was willing to pay for him regardless of the cost and consequences.

He was filled with gratitude, but also felt a bit burdened. He said sincerely, "Master, you don't have to get involved in this matter. I have already gotten rid of the trouble. If I involve you again, I will be very upset!"

Especially, he knew who was behind it but had to keep it a secret, which made him feel even more guilty.

Sun Yu glanced at him and said, "Who asked me to be your master? You are being bullied. How can I, as your master, remain indifferent?"

"But……"

"Alright, what are you worried about? I understand. Don't worry. I have people I can use. I don't need anyone from the Sun family. If something really happens, I will take care of it myself. Even if your master knows, he won't stop you. He has told me several times to take good care of you to avoid being plotted against."

Xu Huaiyi hurriedly thanked him.

Sun Yu waved his hand, "It's all due to you. It's your own hard work. Your master cherishes you and doesn't want to see you fail halfway. He has high hopes for you and hopes that you can go as far as possible."

Xu Huaiyi bowed deeply and said, "I will do my best to live up to Master's expectations and love for me."

"Well, I'll handle this matter for you. Please keep a low profile recently."

"..."

He's already hiding his true self, isn't that low-key enough?

Three days later, Qiao Huaijin went to Gu's house with a cart full of valuables and apologized in a very solemn and ostentatious manner.

Xu Huaiyi invited people into the study room. Seeing the things piled on the floor, he was speechless. "Why are you doing this? Those assassins were not sent by your Qiao family. How can I not trust you?"

Why do we have to do all this nonsense to cause misunderstandings to people who don't know the truth?

Otherwise, why do people say that he doesn't like the Qiao family and can't be true friends with Qiao Huaijin? He has too many schemes and is always scheming.

Qiao Huaijin said with guilt, "Although he is not from our Qiao family, this matter was caused by the Qiao family. This little thing is nothing. Fortunately, Brother Xu was not hurt, otherwise, Jin would be blamed for his death."

Xu Huaiyi's mouth twitched, but he could act, "You are too polite. I am just an ordinary citizen. How can I be so worthy? But, what do you mean by saying that this matter was caused by the Qiao family?"

He had a confused expression on his face and asked very sincerely.

Qiao Huaijin sighed and blamed himself, "Among the five people you sent, one of them is actually related to a steward of the outer courtyard in the Fourth Prince's mansion. If you hadn't trusted the Qiao family and sent that person over, I'm afraid there would have been a huge misunderstanding between us. It was a close call..."

He paused, and continued with a lingering fear, "Fortunately, after the Fourth Prince learned about this, he was very angry and ordered a thorough investigation. He interrogated all the people involved, and only then did he discover the problem..."

Xu Huaiyi asked cooperatively, "What's the problem?"

Qiao Huaijin said in hatred, "It turns out that someone deliberately set up this trap to sow discord between us and destroy our friendship, so that we can fight each other and reap the benefits. It's really despicable and shameless!"

Xu Huaiyi pretended to be shocked, "So, that steward was bribed by someone else and deliberately framed the Fourth Prince?"

Qiao Huaijin nodded, "To be honest, after this thorough investigation, it turns out that there is more than just the housekeeper who has problems in the mansion. There are many masters behind the scenes, and it is very complicated, true and false. His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is not sure who is behind it, so as not to be suspected of instigation. You can see for yourself."

After saying this, he took out a few sheets of paper from his pocket and said, "These are the confessions obtained after arresting all the suspicious people and interrogating them."

Xu Huaiyi pretended to hesitate, "I don't think it's appropriate, right?"

Qiao Huaijin said, "You are the victim, so it is only right that you should watch."

"Thank you very much!"

Xu Huaiyi was no longer polite. He took the article and read it quickly. When he read to the end, he sneered in his heart. As expected, if they really played the same trick on him, did they think he was a fool?
