Yes, my mother had previously brought Jiang Daiyu, who had been dressed up carefully, to the Wei Mansion, apparently just to discuss the matter of selecting a concubine for the Fourth Prince.

But after spending these days together, although he didn't know what the prince's plans were, he felt that his highness probably had no intention of supporting the Fourth Prince.

No wonder his father always reminded him to put the Jiang family first in everything whenever he came to see him occasionally these days. As a member of the Jiang family, he would prosper and suffer together with the Jiang family.

If my sister really became the Fourth Prince's consort, my father would definitely try every means to get her to persuade His Highness to support the Fourth Prince for the sake of the family, so as to increase the Fourth Prince's bargaining chips, but...

At this time, Xie Ze's voice came from the room again: "It's okay. The method of making colored glaze was originally figured out by Ah Xin. It's reasonable for him to be in charge. Otherwise, if we suddenly change people at this time, it will chill the hearts of the craftsmen. If this method is spread out, it will be a real loss."

Liar! His Highness clearly knew how to make colored glaze before, and he was the one who told him the raw materials! Jiang Xin pursed his lips, and only then did he understand why His Highness let him go and toss around in the workshop.

This not only consolidated his position in the hearts of the craftsmen so that no one dared to look down on him, but most importantly, since His Highness had put him in charge of such a lucrative business, others could no longer say anything.

Jiang Xin pursed his lips. Every time, every time he thought that His Highness had treated him the best, he would always find that His Highness could be even better and more considerate to him, as if everything since they met was paved for him by His Highness himself.

But what merits and abilities did he have? Just like Jiang Daiyu said, he was a mute with mediocre abilities, so how could he be so favored by His Highness?

Such care and protection gave him a strong sense of unreality, as if everything he had now was just a dream.

What Jiang Xin didn't know was that even if Xie Ze gave him more protection and compassion, he only hated that he didn't give enough and didn't give it early enough, which made his Ah Xin suffer a lifetime. He cherished even the little bit of charity like a treasure all his life.

The scene of Jiang Xin falling from the city wall is Xie Ze's lifelong nightmare, a pain that cannot be relieved even if he gives Jiang Xin more and more things.

In his previous life, the two aides who caused Jiang Xin to be alone in Shangjing City were quietly dealt with when Xie Ze was just reborn.

But he didn't expect that if those two people were gone, there would be others.

The staff standing on both sides did not know what Xie Ze was thinking. The staff who had just spoken, after hearing what Xie Ze said, just frowned and said, "Forgive me for being nosy, but Your Highness has decided to support the Fourth Prince?

The Fourth Prince does have a great opportunity now, but even if Your Highness is ready to support the Fourth Prince, I do not recommend handing over such an important glass business to Jiang Xin. You can only know a person's face but not his heart. The profits behind the glass industry are huge. I hope Your Highness will think twice."

After that, several other staff members also stood up and expressed their opinions one after another: "Mr. Sun is right, and now several princes want to win over Your Highness. If Your Highness joins the Fourth Prince at this time, he will definitely become a thorn in the eyes of the other princes. At that time, Your Highness will be a glaring target for the Fourth Prince."

"I think that since Your Majesty is in the prime of life and Your Highness is in the favor of the Emperor, it is not appropriate for you to take a position too early, lest you lose His Majesty's heart."

The staff was not all monolithic. Although Xie Ze was not the emperor's biological son, he was still more like a biological son. Xie Ze had military power and strength, so why didn't he fight for it? Being in the royal family, there was no such thing as living a quiet life.

These are the people with greater ambitions. Of course, there are others whose focus is different.

"Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking frankly. Although Jiang Xin is your study partner, you are too partial to him. Although the south wind is popular now, it is not presentable after all. If Your Highness likes him, you can take him into the backyard. If he is flaunted outside like this, it will inevitably become a stain for others to attack you over time."

If the prince had not thrown the eldest son of the Yao family who was pursuing him into the river a few years ago, letting everyone know that their prince would absolutely not like any man, the rumors about him and Jiang Xin would have spread throughout the capital city long ago.

Xie Ze looked at the strange and serious faces below, as if they were the same group of people who always spoke confidently to him in his previous life, as if everything they did was for his own good.

What did they talk about at that time? It's been so long that I can't remember it.

Ah, I remembered it.

They said Jiang Xin was a disaster, disturbing Xie Ze's mind and interfering with Xie Ze's judgment, and Xie Ze should not keep Jiang Xin by his side anymore.

They also said that Jiang Xin seduced Xie Ze, bewitched the master, and colluded with the Jiang family and had secret dealings with the fourth prince. He should be eradicated and never allowed to stay around.

They took the initiative to contact Jiang Xin without telling Xie Ze, and when that fool took the initiative to be the bait, he foolishly stayed in the capital, allowing Xie Ze to successfully break out of the encirclement and return to his base camp.

Even though he has suffered so much betrayal and hurt, that fool will always be so foolish. As long as he gets a little warmth, he will give everything to help the people he cherishes.

He didn't even know until his death that Xie Ze's treatment of him was just an exploitation.

At that time, Xie Ze needed a shield, a reputation as a man so foolish that he would have no children or grandchildren to divert other people's attention, but Jiang Xin just stupidly knocked on the door.

But even Xie Ze himself probably didn't expect that he would fall in love with such a person.

Looking back on the past years of his life, all the warmth he had felt was given to him by Jiang Xin.

A madman and a fool, they warm each other on the road of intrigue and deception. No one understands him, but Jiang Xin does. Everyone is afraid of him, but Jiang Xin loves him. Everyone avoids him, but Xin will hug him and coax him.

Did Jiang Xin really not understand why Xie Ze came to him in the first place? In the countless nights when he was alone, Xie Ze repeatedly asked this question to the empty space. Unfortunately, he would never get the answer.

Jiang Xin is such a wise fool. If he doesn't know something, he probably won't know it until he dies.

Xie Ze came back to his senses and looked at the person who asked him to take Jiang Xin into the backyard. What would happen next?

Jiang Xin is too good at tempting people, and you have lost your judgment. You can't keep him. Jiang Xin is a man after all, and Your Highness still needs to have his own children. Jiang Xin...

These voices kept echoing in my mind, buzzing so loud that it almost made my head explode.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" The staff were still clamoring, but they saw Xie Ze suddenly holding his forehead, frowning, sweat still oozing from his forehead, his eyes were red as if filled with blood, and they rushed forward to hold him.

Jiang Xin heard everyone's anxious voices and rushed in immediately. Seeing Xie Ze's look, he panicked: "Your Highness!"

"Hurry up and call a doctor!" When everyone saw Xie Ze rushing over, they knew that this person was eavesdropping outside. However, now was not the time to worry about these things, so they immediately yelled at Jiang Xin in dissatisfaction.

When His Highness gets better, they will definitely advise His Highness that Jiang Xin has evil intentions and actually hid outside to eavesdrop on their conversation. He is truly despicable!

Jiang Xin nodded when he heard this, and was about to run outside when he heard the voice of his own prince: "No need."

Xie Ze opened his eyes despite the severe headache and looked at the people in front of him. The next second, he kicked out the person who had just suggested that he take Jiang Xin into the backyard, and then kicked out Mr. Sun who did not allow him to hand over the Liuli Industry to Jiang Xin.

If not to Ah Xin, who should they give it to? Mr. Sun? Who gave them the face?

Then Bibiwaiwai said that he suspected Jiang Xin had second thoughts about him, and then...

He kicked them one by one, leaving no one behind.

"what!"

"what!"

"..."

Looking at the gentlemen being kicked to the ground, Jiang Xin: "..."

"Your Highness! What do you mean?!" Poor Mr. Sun, at his old age, was treated like this. He could not bear it anymore and looked at Xie Ze with grief and indignation, as if he would break off all ties with Xie Ze on the spot if Xie Ze did not give him a reasonable explanation.

However, Xie Ze didn't give him any face at all. He stood up and said coldly: "You are working for me, just follow my orders. I trust people and employ them, why do I need you to interfere?"

"You -! You -!" Mr. Sun seemed to have not expected that the wise king would speak to him like this. He was so angry that he couldn't catch his breath and kept holding his chest as if he was going to collapse in the next second.

"Mr. Sun!"

"Mr. Sun!"

Jiang Xin immediately rushed up like a small cannonball and pinched Mr. Sun's philtrum hard.

"You, what are you doing?!" The others glared at him when they saw this, thinking that Jiang Xin was going to harm Mr. Sun, and quickly separated the two.

"I, saved, him..." Jiang Xin explained seriously with a stern face. He was not without temper. He was a little unhappy when he heard what these people said about him just now.

Fortunately, Mr. Sun finally recovered, but he didn't appreciate Jiang Xin's kindness at all. He regarded today's incident as the greatest shame in his life. He raised a trembling hand and pointed at Jiang Xin, then at Xie Ze, and finally said with a look of heartache and resentment:

"Wise King, you cannot distinguish right from wrong, and you only listen to one side and believe it. You are so foolish and ignorant that you will lose the emperor's heart sooner or later. You are not worthy of being a lord. I will leave the palace today and draw a clear line between us!"

In response, Xie Ze only gave him one word: "Get lost!"

"You--!" Mr. Sun almost rolled his eyes in anger again, but when he saw Jiang Xin next to him seemed eager to pinch him again, he felt the lingering pain under his nose and miraculously recovered. He stood up with the help of others, and without saying another word, he left with a cold face and a wave of his sleeves.

In his opinion, such a wise king was not much different from King You of Zhou who played tricks on the princes by lighting beacons. Sooner or later, he would suffer the consequences and regret his words and deeds today, but at this moment, there was no point in saying more.

Most of the others had the same idea as Mr. Sun. As a master, he could be ruthless or indecisive, but if this person only favored one person and didn't care about the advice and counsel of others, he wouldn't last long and there would be no future for them following him.

In this case, there is naturally no point in them following.

Jiang Xin watched the staff leave the study in twos and threes. Some of them wanted to maintain some dignity and bowed before leaving. Some of them were extremely disappointed and walked out directly like Mr. Sun. He anxiously pulled Xie Ze's sleeve and said, "Your Highness!"

Although he was indeed a little angry that these people spoke ill of him in front of His Highness, he also knew that these were smart and talented people. If they all left, His Highness would lose a lot of help.

However, Xie Ze just smiled at Jiang Xin comfortingly: "It doesn't matter, let them go. Only incompetent people will teach their masters how to do things all day long."

Several staff members who were still hesitating and not leaving: "..."

In the end, there was only one aide left standing in the room.

Xie Ze raised his eyelids and said coldly: "Why don't you leave?"

The remaining staff member was named Cen Huacai. He was not affected by the atmosphere at all. Instead, he came up to him with a playful smile and said, "I think your Highness is right. Those people have been teaching the master how to do things all day long. They have lost their sense of reason. They should be taught a lesson."

Xie Ze: “…”

Jiang Xin: “…”

"And..." Cen Huacai expressed his opinion with a smile, and then bowed to Jiang Xin in admiration:

"If I'm not mistaken, Master Jiang's move just now should have been to stimulate the Ren Zhong acupuncture point to keep Mr. Sun awake. If Master Jiang hadn't acted in time, I'm afraid that even if Mr. Sun didn't die, he would have had a stroke and collapsed."

Jiang Xin nodded. This was something he saw when he was young, when he accidentally saw a doctor treating an old man who was about to faint on the street.

It was his first time going out, so the impression was quite deep.

Later, Lu Wuliang approached him. Knowing that Lu Wuliang's mother's family studied medicine, he asked out of curiosity. Only then did he realize that pinching the Ren Zhong point had such a great effect on the elderly who were emotionally excited, so he kept it in mind.

It can be seen that sometimes even if others approach you with ulterior motives, as long as you treat them sincerely, you can get some different gains even if you are facing snakes, insects, rats and ants.

Lu Wuliang probably himself did not expect that he had never taken Jiang Xin seriously. He casually mentioned some medical theories that he himself could not use, but Jiang Xin put them into practice.

"Sure enough." Cen Huacai nodded and said with a smile: "I have seen the doctor in the clinic treat my grandfather at home, and I guessed something from what Mr. Jiang did just now.

Mr. Sun reminded His Highness to be wary of Young Master Jiang and wanted Young Master Jiang to give up the position of person in charge of glass manufacturing. However, Young Master Jiang did not care about what Mr. Sun said and lent a helping hand to Mr. Sun in his time of crisis, which shows that Young Master Jiang is a man who understands the big picture and is magnanimous.

Your Highness has Young Master Jiang as your assistant. It is truly like a talented horse meeting a skilled horse trainer. It is a match made in heaven!

Congratulations to Your Highness, congratulations to Mr. Jiang!"

Jiang Xin: “…” I feel embarrassed by the compliments?(? ???w??? ?)?.

Xie Ze glanced at Cen Huacai: This boy is quite good at talking, that's all.

Cen Huacai smiled slightly, hiding his achievements and fame.
