Soetu was not completely frightened by Yinreng's words.
But what was recorded in the family secrets did leave some traces in his heart.
Since this concerns the future of his family, he has no choice but to be cautious.
So he decided to wait and see how things developed.
Although he was very dissatisfied with Yinreng's attitude of not fighting or competing, he also understood that the prince always valued feelings and would not joke about the lives of hundreds of people in Hesheli.
On the day of Yinzhi's wedding, Yinreng left the palace early. The last time his eldest son got married, he was still studying and had no time to leave the palace to watch the ceremony, but this time he couldn't miss it.
However, before his carriage left the palace, he ran into Yinzhen.
Yinreng lifted the curtain and glanced at him, seeing him standing on the palace road, with only Su Peisheng behind him carrying a medium-sized gift box.
While he felt helpless, he also felt a little warm.
Perhaps it was because Yinzhen knew his background very early on, so he was a little sensitive and stubborn, but once someone won his heart, Yinzhen was really willing to put in the effort.
The carriage stopped beside Yinzhen and his companion, and Yinreng asked Yinzhen to get in.
Facing the sunlight, Yinreng could easily see the fine beads of sweat on his forehead. He picked up a handkerchief from the shelf beside him and handed it to him, with a tone of blame in his voice.
"It's so hot, why are you standing here waiting?"
Yinzhen took it, wiped the sweat off his face neatly, and said with a smile,
"Second brother is also going to attend third brother's wedding. Do you mind if I give you a ride?"
Yinreng rolled his eyes.
"The ride-hailing is fake, but the statement is real, right?"
Being seen through by his second brother, Yinzhen felt a little embarrassed. He chuckled twice and didn't say anything.
The carriage continued to move forward, Yinreng moved the tray of ice towards Yinzhen, mumbling in his mouth,
"You, at such a young age, are so worried. You're not likely to grow tall, you know? Besides, the court officials value you, and you are worthy of their attention. You don't need to give me any explanation, and I don't need to explain either."
"How can they be the same..."
Yinzhen muttered softly.
It was his second brother's business and he didn't need to explain it, but he couldn't pretend to be ignorant while knowing the truth.
After spending several months with his second brother, he knew in his heart that his second brother was the most suitable one to be emperor among his brothers.
Instead of surrendering at Yuqing Palace, those people came to them at this critical moment, clearly intending to sow discord between their brothers.
No matter what his other two brothers thought, Yinzhen himself was unwilling to get involved.
The mud in the court is very deep.
When he was only a few years old, the Tong family wanted to use those vague promises to ask him to speak for the Tong family. Now he has just been in the court for a year and has very little power in his hands.
Unlike the eldest brother, he does not have the support of his mother's family.
He is not like the third brother, whose wife’s family is very powerful.
Those who approach him now are just looking at him to see if he is easy to manipulate so that they can gain more benefits.
Sometimes Yinzhen also hated the environment around him.
There is an exchange of interests everywhere in the court and the country, and only the second brother really wants him to gain a foothold in the court, rather than trying to gain any benefits through him.
Seeing that he didn't reply, Yinreng changed the topic and talked about other things.
"I heard that your future wife's family doesn't seem to be having an easy time."
Yinzhen was stunned, as if he didn't expect Yinreng to say that.
Immediately, his expression became dejected.
"Ever since Ulanara Feiyanggu's death, Xinghui and the others are too young to support such a large family business."
It is normal to be bullied.
It's a pity that his ability is limited now. Before he understands Xinghui's temperament and abilities, he cannot use the limited power in his hands to assign Xinghui any position without authorization.
Among the officials who came to see him in the past two days, several of them also reminded him of this matter in a subtle way, clearly wanting him to compromise and follow their wishes and join the vortex of the fight for the throne.
Yinzhen frowned, then relaxed.
"Unless I have been granted a title now, there is no way I can help Xinghui keep his position as commander."
"You're quite open-minded... But I still want to advise you that it's not a bad thing to retain some power in your hands. Just like Xinghui, sometimes even though you don't take the initiative to cause trouble, they may not let you go..."
Yinreng meant something.
This is the way the world is. If Yinzhen lives his life as a lone minister now, then no one around him will have an easy life.
Yinzhen thought about it for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
"Brother understands."
Coincidentally, the carriage also stopped at this moment.
Yinreng was the first to get out of the carriage. At this hour, the entrance of the mansion was bustling with people coming and going. It wasn't too noisy, but it wasn't quiet either.
The ministers who had arrived earlier and had not yet entered saw his carriage and hurried forward to pay their respects.
"This servant greets the prince."
The servants from the Third Prince's mansion also came up to greet him. Yinreng jumped off the carriage, and Yinzhen followed closely behind.
"Everyone, get up."
Then he took Yinzhen and walked into the yard.
The scene of the two getting off the carriage together still touched many people's hearts.
They exchanged glances and followed Yinreng's footsteps tacitly.
Following the servant's guidance, we walked through the courtyard and arrived at the central hall. The place was already full of people, gathered in groups of three or four, chatting and chatting. It was lively but not too noisy.
Yinzhi sat on the chair, twirling the ring on his finger boredly.
Suddenly, he heard a noise outside the door. Yinzhi listened and then stood up excitedly to greet him.
