Rebirth, guarding the mute at the tip of my heart

Jiang Xin lowered his head, feeling depressed. Although he had gotten used to the feeling of not being able to speak over the years, it was still uncomfortable to face this reality once again.

Xie Ze looked at the furry head in front of him, paused and said, "When I was fighting outside, I passed by a place called Werewolf Village and heard such a story."

Jiang Xin was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked up at Xie Ze.

Xie Ze said patiently: "There was a little boy who was taken away by a wild wolf when he was born. At that time, everyone in the village thought that the boy was dead.

But unexpectedly, the wolf didn’t eat the child after taking him away. Instead, it raised him as its own child.”

Xie Ze's story was dull and boring, but Jiang Xin had never heard a story before, so he became curious after hearing the beginning. He looked at Xie Ze with sparkling eyes: [What happened next? ]

Xie Ze smiled and said, "Later, the boy grew up. One day, he went out to play and met a hunter from the werewolf village who was going hunting.

When the two men met, they were both shocked. The hunter didn't expect that there was a savage in the mountain. He wanted to call him, but he was so scared that he ran away quickly.

He began to doubt his own life experience. Why did the wild wolf, whom he regarded as his mother, look nothing like him, while the hunter looked so much like him?

Gradually, he sneaked out more and more often, and he learned that there was a werewolf village outside, filled with creatures that looked very similar to him.

He is very smart, and he begins to realize that he is also a human being, and he has lost his tribe. He feels lonely, and he wants to go back to where he belongs.

However, because he had never come into contact with humans and therefore could not speak human language, his life was not easy after he returned to the village with great hopes.

Except for his father who was still alive, other people were unwilling to contact him, thinking that he was a wild man who grew up with wild wolves and was no longer a human being. "

Jiang Xin was anxious when he heard this, and he immediately gestured and said in a low voice: [And then? ]

"Then, the boy did not give up, and his father did not give up either. He patiently taught him human customs and language every day.

Day after day, the boy first learned to walk upright, learned to eat with chopsticks, and learned to dress himself. Two years later, he finally spoke his first words, and the villagers finally accepted him.

Later, he helped the villagers communicate with the wild wolf, and the wild wolf would no longer harm the villagers. The safety of the villagers who went up the mountain to hunt was greatly improved. Everyone was very grateful to him, so they changed the name of the village to Werewolf Village. "

After Xie Ze finished telling his story, Jiang Xin was stunned.

Just when Jiang Xin was at a loss, Xie Ze couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his head: "You are just like that werewolf boy. There must be a day when you can speak again. If it doesn't work in one day, we can practice for a month. If it doesn't work in one month, we can practice for a year. Sooner or later, you will succeed."

[I'm afraid I'll waste your time and gain nothing in the end.] Jiang Xin said gloomily.

This was originally his business. It was already inappropriate enough for a master like His Highness to accompany him in practice all the time, so how could he accompany him all the time?

"What is a waste of time?" Xie Ze said with a straight face and expressionless face: "Practicing with you is a hundred times more interesting than going to the court and the Ministry of War to watch those old guys perform on the same stage."

Jiang Xin: “…”

"It's settled. From now on, whenever I'm free, I'll practice with you. Don't refuse, and don't give up on yourself." Xie Ze frowned, and added fiercely, "You will be able to speak. I promise you."

[Okay, okay!] As soon as he saw His Highness' serious face, Jiang Xin nodded subconsciously and nervously.

I don't know why, but I feel like His Highness is more looking forward to letting me speak than I am.

Since his master was so enthusiastic, Jiang Xin naturally didn't dare to give up. He mustered up his courage and practiced for a long time until the sun set. Then he stopped in frustration, said goodbye to Xie Ze and went home.

Watching Jiang Xin leave the mansion, Xie Ze's face was terribly gloomy. After a long while, he spoke grimly: "Tell me, how can I let Ah Xin stay in the mansion and be with me day and night without hurting Ah Xin?"

We can't just force him to stay in the house. If we do, Ashin will be regarded as a flatterer and cursed by the world, just like in the previous life.

Ah Fu: “…Slave, I don’t know either.” This is too difficult for a servant like him QAQ.

"Why don't we confiscate the Jiang Mansion? Then Ashin will have nowhere to go and can stay here with a clear conscience." Xie Ze said suddenly.

"… Your Highness, please think twice!" Ah Fu shuddered and hurried forward to comfort him: "After all, Young Master Jiang is also a member of the Jiang family. If Your Highness really attacks the Jiang family, Young Master Jiang will certainly not be able to escape unscathed!"

Wow, wow, wow, what kind of magic potion did Young Master Jiang feed his own prince that made his prince do something as stupid as setting fire to the beacon tower to trick the princes.

Fortunately, Xie Ze had not gone completely crazy yet, and still had a trace of rationality. He listened to half of what Ah Fu said, nodded solemnly and said, "That's right."

Ah Fu heaved a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Even if we want to take down the Jiang Mansion, we have to get rid of Ah Xin first. We can't let the garbage from the Jiang Mansion fall on Ah Xin."

Ah Fu: "..." You only listened to my last sentence! You didn't listen to anything that had nothing to do with Mr. Jiang! !

After all, the Jiang family is a family of important officials of the second rank in the court. Can you just destroy them if you say so, my ancestors? QAQ!

However, no matter how earnestly Ah Fu tried to persuade him, Xie Ze remained unmoved. He returned to the study with a cold face, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

I can't go to Jiang's house and climb into bed again today. If it happens once, I can say that I am worried about Ashin's safety, but if it happens too often, I am afraid that it will arouse Ashin's vigilance.

He couldn't let Ashin be afraid of him anymore.

Take your time, don't rush, they still have a long, long time.

*

When Jiang Xin returned home, almost all the members of the Jiang family had also returned. It could be said that the whole family was waiting for him.

Jiang Zhengchu only glanced behind him and didn't see the virtuous king. He didn't know whether he was relieved or worried. He just frowned and said to Jiang Xin: "You are back. Let's have dinner together. Your mother and the others are waiting."

Jiang Xin was stunned when he heard this, then he took out a pen and paper and wrote: [I just had a meal at the palace. ]

"..." Jiang Zhengchu didn't expect that Jiang Xin would refuse after he had invited her so hard. He said coldly and unhappily, "You can eat more after you've used it. You can't refuse a gift from an elder. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

"..." Jiang Xin had no choice but to nod and follow his father to the restaurant.

The whole family was there, all gathered together, but the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward.

Jiang Zhengchu sat down at the main seat, not in a hurry to pick up his chopsticks, but said calmly: "Yu'er was outspoken this morning and said the wrong thing. Why don't you apologize to you?"

"..." Jiang Daiyu took a deep breath and clenched his fists. After a while, he lowered his head towards Jiang Xin and said in a muffled voice: "Brother, I'm sorry."

Although she was spoiled, she was not unable to see the situation clearly. Now that her father was angry, if she continued to lose her temper, even her mother would be unable to help her.

Jiang Xin was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the abnormal red mark on Jiang Daiyu's face.

"..." Jiang Daiyu naturally felt Jiang Xin's gaze and was so angry that he wanted to curse, but when he saw his father looking at him coldly, he immediately put out his anger and just turned his head slightly to hide his bruised face.

Jiang Xin shook his head and said nothing more. There was nothing much to say.

"Since your sister sincerely admits her mistake, let's put this matter to rest." Jiang Zhengchu, as the head of the family, nodded with satisfaction, picked up his chopsticks and said calmly: "You are all your father's children, so you should help each other in the future, and don't fight with each other, which will make outsiders laugh at you. Let's eat."

Jiang Xingyu & Jiang Liangcai: "Yes."

"The Autumn Examination is just a few days away, Xing'er, how are your preparations going?" Jiang Zhengchu asked casually while eating.

Jiang Xingyu had something on his mind and was eating absentmindedly, not even hearing what his father said.

Jiang Zhengchu frowned: "Xing'er!"

"Ah?" Jiang Liangcai, who was sitting next to him, pulled Jiang Xingyu, and Jiang Xingyu came back to his senses. He said respectfully, "Father, I have almost finished all the questions that the teacher has asked recently. I should have some confidence in the autumn examination."

"That's good." Jiang Zhengchu nodded. He thought Jiang Xingyu was distracted because he was too nervous about the exam, so he comforted her: "You can prepare for the exam at home in the next few days. Don't be too nervous. Just perform normally."

"Yes." Jiang Xingyu said with lowered eyebrows.

"Liang'er, you must not slack off. Although the Spring Examination is still several months away, you must learn a lot from your brother and study hard."

"Yes, son, I'll remember it." Jiang Liangcai replied respectfully.

Jiang Zhengchu nodded, and finally turned his attention to Jiang Xin, whom he rarely reminded. After a pause, he said, "Xin'er has entered the Imperial College now. Although he doesn't need to take the college entrance examination anymore, he must not fall behind in his studies.

You are now the virtuous king's man, and your every move represents the virtuous king's reputation. Be careful with your words and actions outside, and don't cause trouble again."

Jiang Xin nodded.

Jiang Zhengchu was satisfied. After a while, he continued to stare at Jiang Xin and said:

"You are all grown up now, but you must remember that no matter where you are or who you work for, you are still members of the Jiang family. You must consider the family more and share the burden for the family. You must not do anything that damages the family's reputation for your own selfish reasons. Do you understand?"

"Yes." The little ones didn't know why their father suddenly said that, but they still nodded obediently.

Jiang Zhengchu finally smiled when he saw this.

At present, he has not yet found out about Fu Yuquan's situation, so he can only start from Jiang Xin.

No matter what, Jiang Xin is his biological son. He cannot and dare not disobey his orders.

Since the wise king was quite caring towards his mute son, he asked Jiang Xin to go and inquire about it, perhaps he could find out something.
