Having confirmed their feelings for each other, the two went home separately.
Xia Qi couldn't hear their conversation for a while, but the guards could.
At this moment, Nightingale truly regarded Jiang Chuwei as her master from the bottom of her heart.
The prince had no interest in that position, and the guards knew that.
The prince kept them only for self-defense.
He didn't care which of his brothers was sitting in that position.
He'll go to the fiefdom sooner or later.
But with just this one remark today, the prince's future path has completely changed.
Nightingale was deeply grateful to Jiang Chuwei.
All of them hoped that their master would compete for that position.
Only in this way can we keep the initiative in our own hands, instead of being at the mercy of others.
In their hearts, the master is the one who is most qualified to sit in that position.
Night Wind was unusually excited today; he had shown up several times already.
"Are you that excited?" Lin Muheng glanced at him.
"Yes, Your Highness, as expected of Miss Jiang, your perspective is truly unique." Ye Feng knew he couldn't praise the wrong person.
Sure enough, the prince's lips curved into a smile.
Men in love are different, and their masters are no exception.
"Be more vigilant from now on."
"yes!"
In the past, I was all alone and didn't bother to work hard.
There's nothing wrong with being a wealthy and carefree prince who never has to worry about food or drink.
She's so afraid of Prince Jin, so he'll make sure Prince Jin is no longer a threat.
She wanted to ascend the throne so that she could become his protector. Once she was in that position, she wouldn't have to fear anyone anymore.

"The heir apparent's wife from the Marquis of Pingyang's mansion?" Lin Mushen's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
No wonder, he looks familiar.
The Marquis of Pingyang's residence has been embroiled in numerous scandals these days.
General Jiang's daughter turned out to be a coward!
Seeing her trembling with fear today, Lin Mushen felt inexplicably angry.
"This has truly disgraced the General's Mansion."
Eunuch Wang: ...
What is the prince so angry about?
However, he quickly cheered up.
It's good that the Crown Prince's wife is disliked; that way, the Prince won't have any ulterior motives.
The Marquis of Pingyang's family has been offended, so be it.
The General's Mansion is not to be trifled with.
"That Lu guy..."
"Lu Yanke!"
"He's really smug now!"
He was not proud of himself; from a lowly Imperial Guard, he had taken on the responsibility of mining salt.
"Yes, it's widely rumored that he has a beautiful wife at home but hasn't consummated the marriage for three years, while having a child with a woman who is not respectable."
Eunuch Wang inquired about every detail.
He wondered if it was just his imagination, but the prince seemed to treat the heir apparent differently.
"Three years without consummating the marriage? You mean she's still a virgin?" Lin Mushen raised an eyebrow.
"The news is indeed true!" Eunuch Wang secretly glanced at Prince Jin, unable to discern his meaning.
Has the prince changed his tastes?
The prince has always been particularly obsessed with married women.
When Eunuch Wang was on night watch, he would often hear things he shouldn't have.
During sex, the prince would constantly ask his wives whether their husbands were more powerful or he was.
The women, of course, could only flatter him, saying he was the most amazing.
The prince worked even harder.
Only one woman refused to agree with him.
The woman was very stubborn, insisting that her husband was invincible and no one could compare to him.
The prince was angry and summoned that woman to his bed every night.
It wasn't until his wife begged for mercy that she changed her tune and said that the prince was the invincible man in the world.
Only then did the prince release the woman.
Now that the Crown Prince's wife is still a virgin, shouldn't Your Highness let her go?
"Is she very familiar with Lao Wu?" Lin Mushen suddenly asked.
"No information was found that they had ever been in a relationship."
"That's strange. Fifth Prince isn't one to meddle in other people's business. But seeing him stand up for the Crown Prince's wife today, it doesn't seem like we're meeting for the first time."
Eunuch Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead. Had he not investigated thoroughly enough?
"This servant will send someone to investigate again!"
"Never mind, maybe it's just that the fifth prince wants to annoy me. As long as I'm around, he'll cause trouble. Just have someone keep an eye on him."
Eunuch Wang: "Yes."
Thinking of Jiang Chuwei, Lin Mushen felt a little regretful.
The General's Mansion has always been loyal only to the Emperor.
The emperor intended to suppress generals who held military power.
The one currently guarding the Northwest is Jiang Huai, the eldest son of the Jiang family.
General Jiang became virtually invisible in Beijing.
However, Lin Mushen was aware of their power.
As long as General Jiang gives an order, he can command a hundred responses in the capital.
This is also why the emperor dared not openly suppress the Jiang family.
They are also the object of vying for the favor of various forces.
However, the general's mansion showed no respect to anyone, even marrying their daughter to a fallen noble family.
Lin Mushen wouldn't be so foolish as to have any connection with the eldest daughter of the Jiang family.
Putting aside the discord between the Duke of Zheng's mansion and the General's mansion, even the Emperor would think he had ulterior motives.
What a pity.
Thinking of Jiang Chuwei's rosy face, Lin Mushen suppressed the burning sensation in his abdomen.
There's still a long way to go. Once he reaches that position, whichever woman he wants, she'll have to be obediently sent to him.
Miss Jiang, just you wait, I won't let you live alone in an empty room from now on.
"If I remember correctly, Lu Yanke was transferred to the Ministry of Works?"
"Yes, I don't know if it was the General's Mansion that helped, but Young Master Jiang has now managed to secure a real position."
"What was he assigned to do?"
