Although Minister Jiang was indignant, he knew it was not the right time to clash with Long Musi. He could only suppress his anger and responded coldly, "Since this past is over, and my mother is now unconscious, if Your Highness is alright, I will go to serve my mother first."
Seeing this, Xu Tianze knew it was his turn to perform, so he directly took over Long Musi's words: "Master Jiang is indeed a filial son. I just don't know if this sin is the fault of Old Lady Jiang herself, or if she suffered for someone else."
Minister Jiang glared at Xu Tianze fiercely upon hearing this. He hadn't even glanced at Xu Tianze when he'd followed Long Musi in. A stray dog, what was there for him to pay attention to? He hadn't expected him to ignore him, and this clown actually dared to show off his presence.
"I am talking to His Royal Highness the Third Prince. Who are you and what qualifications do you have to interrupt? Do you still think you have a father and brother above you?" Minister Jiang snorted coldly and scolded directly.
You dare to make things difficult for him without even considering whether you are worthy of it. He can't turn against Long Musi, but can he not turn against you, Xu Tianze?
"Minister Jiang, please be careful with your words!" Long Muse took half a step forward and stood in front of Xu Tianze. He was the one who brought the person here, so naturally he would not allow others to say anything about him.
Xu Tianze didn't get angry when he heard Minister Jiang's words. After all, the Xu family had fallen, and he had heard, seen, and experienced much more than this. He had heard even the most vicious words, and this was just a drop in the bucket.
Xu Tianze came out from behind Long Musi, smiled lightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Minister Jiang, I came here just to show my concern. Why are you angry?" He said it in a light tone, but the implication was a blunt satire on Minister Jiang's attitude.
Minister Jiang was even more furious upon seeing this. He glared at Xu Tianze and said through gritted teeth, "Xu Tianze, you seem to have forgotten your current status and position. How dare you act so presumptuous here!"
"Oh? Have I forgotten my identity and status?" Xu Tianze sneered. "Minister Jiang did remind me. I am now a man of low status, but in comparison, Lord Jiang should perhaps be more careful. After all, some people's status is not static."
These words were an indirect threat to Minister Jiang, reminding him of his position, which made his face even gloomier, but he was unable to refute it.
Seeing this, Long Musi immediately stepped forward and took over Xu Tianze's words, with a hint of warning in his eyes.
"I have learned a lot from Minister Jiang's hospitality." Long Musi said in a cold tone, "As for Madam Jiang, I hope she can wake up."
After waking up, she could continue to watch the Jiang family she protected collapse bit by bit, and there was nothing she could do.
Xu Tianze's mouth corners rose slightly, he knew it was time to end this dispute.
He bowed slightly to Minister Jiang and said casually, "Minister Jiang, I was just impulsive. Please forgive me. After all, as Minister Jiang said, I am just a worthless life now. I don't think you will take it too seriously."
After saying that, he turned and left. Long Musi gave Minister Jiang a warning look and followed him away. The two of them soon disappeared from the sight of Jiang Mansion.
Minister Jiang watched them leave, his heart swelled with anger, yet he could do nothing about it. He knew that the most important thing now was to deal with the Jiang family's current predicament, and arguing with Xu Tianze and the others would only distract him and be meaningless.
After Xu Tianze and Long Musi left Jiang Mansion, they strolled on the street.
He had originally intended to go and see how miserable Jiang Xue looked and then ridicule her, but he didn't expect that he couldn't help but started arguing with Minister Jiang in the living room.
But there was nothing to regret. If he had to do it again, Xu Tianze would still do it. He just couldn't stand Minister Jiang's sanctimonious demeanor.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for what happened today." Xu Tianze thanked Long Musi with a smile.
"There's no need for this between you and me." Long Musi waved his hand. "But why did Aze provoke Minister Jiang just now?"
Based on his understanding of Xu Tianze, he knew that Xu Tianze's punishment of Jiang Shangshu and Jiang Xue had just begun. He shouldn't be so impatient.
A sly glint flashed in Xu Tianze's eyes. "I just can't stand his arrogance. Besides, even if you and I didn't come, Minister Jiang would definitely guess it was you and me who did it."
Since everyone knows the truth, why not try to calm him down so that Xu Tianze can feel better.
Long Musi nodded, agreeing with Xu Tianze's idea. "However, we still need to take a long-term view. The Jiang family's influence in the court cannot be underestimated."
"I understand." Xu Tianze said solemnly, "A thousand-mile dam can be breached by an ant hole. Let's take those evidences and have a good time with the Jiang family."
As they walked, they discussed strategies for dealing with the Jiang family. Before they knew it, they were near the Zhenguogong Mansion.
The geographical location of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is quite enviable. The entire mansion is located at the head of the powerful street.
The direction facing the gate is exactly the intersection of the three most prosperous commercial streets in Shangjing City.
Going east is the intersection of powerful forces. Going deeper, you will reach the nearest avenue to the palace. Going west is the bustling street, making it extremely convenient for people in the mansion to go shopping.
"Gee~" With the coachman's shout, a carriage with the logo of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion drove out.
Long Musi and Xu Tianze curled their lips at the same time. At this time, they knew that it must be the carriage of the Duke of Zhenguo's wife who was preparing to return to the Jiang family.
However, it is impossible for the two of them to go back to Jiang Shangshu's house right after slapping him in the face. That would not be a provocation.
