Rebirth, guarding the mute at the tip of my heart

"Young Master, this... Why did the prince send so many things over here? We have no place to put them in this house." Mother Xu saw the servants of the prince's mansion carrying boxes of things over and didn't know what to do. When she saw Jiang Xin coming over, she hurriedly said anxiously as if she had found her backbone.

"No, there is no place to put it, so, put it in His Highness's private vault." Jiang Xin's face was still red. Hearing what Xu's mother said, he scratched his face and said embarrassedly.

"Ah?" Mother Xu didn't know what happened outside yet, and was a little confused when she heard it: "But aren't these all gifts from the prince?"

Why give it to the prince again?

"Yes, Your Highness, you helped me to ask for the betrothal gift from my father, and also the dowry that my mother left for me."

Xu’s mother: “…”

"This..." Mother Xu watched Jiang Xin ask someone to put the things in the palace storeroom first, and hurriedly pulled Jiang Xin aside, wondering and anxiously saying, "Master, you haven't married yet, why would the master and the mistress give you a betrothal gift, and... ask you to bring it to the palace? But what happened?"

So Jiang Xin stumbled and tried to retell what happened today to Xu's mother.

Originally, Jiang Xin felt a little sad when he thought of his father's reaction to the stolen dowry.

But now, no matter how sad and unwilling he was, it could not compare to the happiness he felt when His Highness coaxed him. He was no longer sad and could tell Mother Xu openly.

However, Mother Xu was not infected by Jiang Xin's ease and relief. Instead, she showed an anxious and worried expression after learning what happened. She said, "Master, the Jiang Mansion is your home after all. How are you going to deal with this mess you had with the master and his wife when you return to the Jiang family?"

"Then no, I won't go back." Jiang Xin lowered his eyes and said stubbornly, stuttering.

In the past, he would wonder if following His Highness all day would cause trouble to Him, but now, he knew that His Highness needed him, too.

He can accompany Your Highness and care about Your Highness. He, he is very useful!

Mother Xu was so angry at the childish words that she lost her temper. Thinking of the extraordinary tolerance and doting of the prince on her master, she asked tentatively, "Master, have you ever thought about your own marriage?"

Jiang Xin was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head.

He used to be a mute, and knowing that his parents were too lazy to take care of him, and he himself didn't want to waste the life of an innocent girl, he had already prepared himself to never get married.

Until recently, he was finally able to speak again. He was either accompanying His Highness or doing things for His Highness all day long, and had no time to think about this matter.

If His Highness had not helped him to ask for the betrothal gift from his parents, he would not have remembered this matter.

But now, even if Mother Xu mentioned it, he still didn't have much thought about his future wife.

But if he really wants to get married in the future, he should leave the palace, right? He can't just eat and drink for free at His Highness's house with his family. His Highness is not his father, and that would be too much.

Thinking about it this way, Jiang Xin suddenly had no expectations about getting married anymore.

If getting married would alienate him from His Highness, it would be better not to get married. He had already made up his mind not to get married anyway.

Seeing him like this, Xu's mother knew that he had not yet come to his senses, and could not help but remind him: "Even if the young master has never considered it, the prince will always get married.

Young Master, have you ever thought about what you would do if one day there was a mistress in this palace? "

The virtuous king never restrained his thoughts in front of his servants. Xu's mother naturally saw it, but it was precisely because she saw it that she reminded Jiang Xin.

In Xu's mother's opinion, no matter how much the virtuous prince doted on her young master, he would never marry a man, and His Majesty would not allow it.

If Jiang Xin continues to stay in the palace, one day, when the virtuous prince gets married, he will become a thorn in the princess's side. How will Jiang Xin cope with the situation then?

Jiang Xin was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't quite understand why Mother Xu asked this. He thought that if His Highness had a princess, he would definitely treat His Highness's future closest wife the same way he would treat His Highness.

However, when Jiang Xin thought that there would be such a person appearing in the future, and that her relationship with His Highness would be closer than his own, his voice got stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter a word, as if he had become the little mute again.

Mother Xu looked at him worriedly. Just as she was about to say something else, she heard a familiar voice coming from the side: "There will be no mistress in the palace. Madam Xu is worrying too much."

Mother Xu was startled, and quickly turned around and lowered her head, saying with a look of horror: "Old, old servant has said too much, please, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Get up." Xie Ze glanced at her calmly, then pulled Jiang Xin and said, "I'll ask Ah Fu to clear out a separate warehouse, and you can put your things in it from now on, okay?"

"Okay." Jiang Xin nodded, his eyebrows curved: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Xie Ze rubbed Jiang Xin's head and said gently: "I asked Ah Fu to go to Shengyang Restaurant to bring some dishes. We will dine together later."

"Ok!"

"..."

It was not until Xie Ze took Jiang Xin away that Xu's mother dared to raise her head tremblingly, swallowed her saliva, and calmed the fear in her heart.

For some reason, she always felt that the gentle and kind-hearted king described by her young master had a murderous look in his eyes when he looked at her just now. She even suspected that if the young master had not been there, the king might have beaten her to death.

why?

Just because she said that the virtuous king would marry in the future, and that he and the young master could not always be as close as they are now?

But what she said was indeed true. Could it be that this prince was really prepared to risk the world's condemnation and marry a man?

Xu's mother couldn't understand the wise king, but she didn't dare to say anything more.

*

If the news of the virtuous king defying the emperor's will and disrupting the Fourth Prince's wedding spread, it should have spread rapidly throughout the capital under the guidance of some people with ulterior motives and become a topic of conversation among people after dinner.

It also made Xie Ze's already not-so-good reputation even worse, and made people everywhere have a deeper impression of the prince's madness.

However, before things could develop further, the people in the capital were quickly attracted by another new thing.

"Hey, have you all been to see it?"

"What are you looking at?"

"There are two new shops opened on Central Street recently. Their names are 'Yu Xin'. Let me tell you, the things they sell are incredible!"

"What new tricks are coming out of Jiangnan again?"

"How could that be possible?! Have you ever heard that His Royal Highness the Wise King competed with others in the residence of Wei Daxueshi in pitching pots and won a prize called the Seven-Colored Glazed Cup?"

"Of course I have heard of it. It is said that the colorful glass lamp was bought by Wei Daxueshi from an overseas merchant by accident. The glass lamp can emit colorful light under the refraction of sunlight, like a fairy object. Later, His Highness gave it to his companion. But what does this have to do with those two shops?"

"I also heard about it. It was the wise king's study companion. He couldn't speak when he was young, so he loved to study some strange skills. After he got the colored glass lamp, he studied it every day. He actually discovered the secret of it and figured out the formula for producing colored glass.

The two shops named "Yu Xin" are the property of the wise king. What they sell now are the legendary colored glass products. They are so rare!"

"This...such a magical object can be figured out so easily?" The people who heard it looked at the person who spoke with some doubt.

"Of course! I heard that even the windows of this shop are made of glazed glass. They are so beautiful. You will see it when you go over there!"

"Glass windows? I've never heard of that before. I must go and take a good look at them."

"I'll go with you!"

"..."

Similar conversations were played out in restaurants, teahouses and even people's homes within a few days. Before long, the two shops named "Yu Xin" were surrounded by crowds of people.

Fortunately, Cen Huacai had anticipated this and the two shops temporarily had certain personnel restrictions, with only fifty people allowed to visit each day.

Of course, the places for these fifty people in the next month have already been snapped up by the major families. As for the three thousand newly produced glassware, more than half of them have been reserved by the royal relatives who received the news in advance.

Only a small portion is left, and is now displayed in stores for people to view and appreciate. Ordinary people cannot afford or buy it.

Although only fifty people can visit the shop every day, the windows of the shop are also made of glass. Those who cannot enter the shop, even if they just run to the street to take a look at the magical glass windows from afar, will be able to talk about it for a long time when they go back.

This is a glazed window. It’s the first time I’ve seen one in my life. It’s such a beautiful thing. I heard that there’s not even such a thing in the imperial palace!

I heard that it was thought up by the little companion of the wise king. Oh my god, what kind of smart brain must one have to come up with such a beautiful thing!

The key is that this thing is not only beautiful, but also very useful.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about this glazed window, it is so bright and clear. If it can be installed in your home, the room will be much brighter!

"I never thought that the mute young master of the Jiang family would be so capable that he could even figure out the tricks of these overseas people. He's really amazing!"

"I have a relative who works as a servant in the palace. He heard that Young Master Jiang is a little genius who learns things quickly. If he hadn't been unable to speak when he was young, he might have become a famous talent in the capital."

"I knew it! This wise prince is so favored by the emperor, he could have any companion he wanted, why did he choose such a mute? It seems that the prince has a good eye and discovered that this young master Jiang has great talent early on!"

"Yes, yes!"

"..."

*

"Bang!" Because of the two glass shops, Jiang Xin's reputation somehow spread out and reached the Jiang Mansion. Jiang Xingyu was so angry that he smashed a vase on the spot.

"You learn everything quickly and you're so talented!" Jiang Xingyu was so angry that he gritted his teeth, his eyes were bloodshot with jealousy.

What kind of person is Jiang Xin? How could he not know him since he grew up with him?

This kind of idiot, who knows nothing about music, chess, calligraphy, or painting, is so dumb that the teacher doesn't even want to teach him. How can he have great talent?!

How dare he do that? On what basis?! Just relying on that Liuli that he made by some trickery?!

It's so ridiculous!

However, even such a ridiculous rumor, there are actually people who believe it, and many people believe it.

The reputation of a talented scholar in the capital that he had always dreamed of was taken away by a mute who had never been as good as him since childhood. How could he not hate it and accept it? !

However, before Jiang Xingyu could get angry and continue to do odd jobs, the servant beside him tremblingly reminded him: "Master, the treasury in the mansion is tight now, and the master has reduced the monthly allowance. If you smash all these, you may not be able to make up for it in a short time."

"..." Jiang Xingyu was so angry that he gasped and kicked the servant out, shouting angrily: "I asked you to remind me!"

Although he yelled like that, he didn't smash the inkstone in his hand.

He has many places where he needs money recently, especially for that bastard Lu Wuliang, who is now staring at him like a dog-skin plaster all day long. He goes to him when he has no money, no work, and even when he is ostracized by neighbors on the street, he goes to him to settle the matter.

As long as he showed the slightest sign of wanting to quit, that bastard would threaten him and say that he would expose the fact that he had instructed the other party to frame Jiang Xin that day. This really annoyed him so much that he had no mind to study at all.

By the way, Lu Wuliang!

Jiang Xingyu's eyes lit up. He didn't believe that a bastard like Lu Wuliang would not hate Xie Ze and Jiang Xin who had caused him to the point where he couldn't even read.

Now that he saw that Jiang Xin was living so well, not only had he created a profitable business like Liuli, but he had also achieved such a high reputation, he didn't believe that Lu Wuliang would not be jealous and would not want revenge...

In addition to Jiang Xingyu, the other masters of the Jiang Mansion were also feeling uncomfortable at this time.

Jiang Liangcai was fine, just feeling a little sour.

Fu Xuerong was even more resentful. Jiang Xin had clearly figured out the method of making colored glaze, and Prince Xian's Mansion had clearly produced so much colored glaze, but this guy forced her and her daughter to this point just because Yu'er took an object that was within his reach.

This little bastard clearly did it on purpose. He just wanted to embarrass them! He is such an ungrateful bastard!

If she had known this, she should have let him have an accident earlier, before he grew up, instead of causing her trouble like this today!

Fu Xuerong knelt in the ancestral hall, twisting the Buddhist beads vigorously, with resentment flashing in her eyes. She was so angry that she almost bit her back teeth off.

This ungrateful bastard, he thought that she couldn't do anything to him after he moved into the palace, right? He thought that he could be glorious and put pressure on Xing'er because he had the support of the prince, right? She would never, ever let this happen!

As for Jiang Zhengchu, he had been looking forward to the Fourth Prince for a long time, and finally he came.

It's a pity that the Fourth Prince brought the young master of the Wei family not to help him get his official position back, but to bring him to justice.

"Lord Jiang, you really gave birth to a good son." Wei Bowen sat down with his own prince and left Jiang Zhengchu alone for a while. Then he turned the teacup in his hand and sneered.

The Wei Mansion captured the overseas merchant and invested a lot of manpower and money before they finally figured out the correct formula for the colored glaze.

Before it had time to go into mass production, it was intercepted by the unknown mute in the Jiang Mansion, who made so much colored glass that it caught the attention of the aristocratic families and even opened two colored glass shops!

What are all the efforts they have made these days? Is it a joke?!

Jiang Zhengchu is so good, having such a promising son, who was able to hide at home for so many years and give them a fatal blow! Good, very good!

Jiang Zhengchu: “…”
