When Lin Muheng took his leave from the General's Mansion, he was already quite familiar with the people there.
Perhaps it's true that a mother-in-law's love for her son-in-law grows stronger with each passing year.
After several hours, Madam Jiang looked at Prince Yu and was satisfied with everything about him.
Even Jiang He, who was always arrogant, developed a subtle emotion towards the Prince of Yu, a feeling of worship.
Although Jiang He came from a family of military generals, he had never actually fought on the battlefield, nor had he ever been sent out to suppress bandits.
Jiang He's greatest achievement is that he has never lost a fight among the spoiled rich kids.
However, although Lin Muheng was about the same age as him, he was someone who had actually fought on the battlefield.
After hearing about his experience, Jiang He looked on with longing and admiration.
Lin Muheng said sincerely, "You're capable too."
Jiang He said with shame, "Don't flatter me."
Lin Muheng: "Second Young Master, you only win when you fight, and many people in the capital know that. You've been fighting for so many years and you still haven't caused trouble for the General's Mansion. This shows that you are not a stupid person."
"It's clear that you have a good grasp of who you can and cannot fight in the Second Young Master's mind. You know exactly how hard you should hit those who can fight, and how badly you should hit those who can't to vent your anger."
"It takes a lot of intelligence to do that."
Jiang He stared in disbelief: "How did you guess all my thoughts correctly?"
"Because great minds think alike," Lin Muheng said with a smile. "When I was a kid, all I did in fights was make others suffer in silence."
Jiang Hai chimed in, "You certainly know how to read people's minds."
"You flatter me, Third Young Master."
Jiang Hai: ...
Who said he was praising someone?
They really know how to pat themselves on the back.
When Lin Muheng left, Jiang He and Lin Muheng looked like brothers, leaving Jiang Hai, who was standing to the side, dumbfounded.
Jiang Hai knew that his second brother was extremely arrogant.
The fact that the Prince of Yu became sworn brothers after just one meeting shows that the Prince of Yu's ability to win people's hearts is truly remarkable.
The Jiang family members warmly bid farewell to Prince Yu.
Lin Muheng achieved his goal; he hadn't expected the Jiang family to accept him so quickly.
His lips curled up in a wild smile.
With the support of the General's Mansion, the next step is the Emperor.
Night Wind couldn't help but say, "Congratulations, Master!"
This was the first time he had ever seen a prince speak so eloquently and persuasively with others.
It seems that men exert a great deal of energy to get married.
"Your Highness! Would you like me to give you a massage?" The prince's face had been smiling for too long; I wondered if it would become stiff.
Lin Muheng shot him a glare, and Ye Feng shrank back.
It turns out that the prince is still the same fierce prince.
"To the Prince of Xiang's residence!"
"Your Highness! Are you going to have a drink with Prince Xiang at this hour?" Ye Feng couldn't help but ask.
Ye Yu twitched the corner of her mouth. Ye Feng really doesn't learn his lesson. How could he possibly fathom the prince's thoughts?
"So noisy!"
Night Breeze immediately shut up.
Night Rain mouthed, "Never learns."
The night wind stuck out its tongue.

Prince Xiang's Mansion
The Prince of Yu suddenly arrived, and the Prince of Xiang and his wife looked dejected: "What was bound to happen has finally come."
They warmly invited Prince Yu into the house, and Prince Xiang ordered a meal to be prepared.
"I didn't expect Uncle to still be at home at this hour? Nephew is in for a treat," Prince Yu said with a smile.
The Prince of Xiang rolled his eyes at him: "You sent someone to deliver a message, do you think I would avoid seeing you?"
Princess Xiang warmly invited Lin Muheng to sit down.
"Speak, what do you want me to do?" Prince Xiang asked bluntly.
Today, the Princess Consort of Xiang kept him at home, saying that the Prince of Yu would be coming.
The Prince of Xiang didn't believe it at first, but he didn't expect him to actually come.
"Why did Heng'er leave without even saying goodbye when he came to the manor yesterday?" Princess Xiang asked.
"That's why I've come here today to apologize," Lin Muheng said.
"You chatterbox, do you know how long it's been since you last visited the Prince Xiang's residence?" The Princess Xiang's voice was full of doting affection.
Heng'er only shows her true nature in front of her.
Princess Xiang looked at Lin Muheng; the child really did look just like his mother.
Those captivating eyes have charmed countless noble ladies.
The Princess Consort of Xiang felt a dull ache in her heart when she thought of Lin Muheng's mother.
Back then, Consort Chen, Princess Xiang, and Lady Yongning were such close friends that they shared everything.
The three women had different fates. Hua Yu entered the palace and became Consort Chen. Back then, she was the most favored woman in the harem, and after giving birth to Prince Yu, she became the most favored woman in the harem.
However, in the cannibalistic world of the imperial harem, the naive Hua Yu was no match for the women of the harem.
A favored concubine was framed for having an affair with a man outside the marriage.
The emperor was out of his mind and, in a fit of anger, banished Consort Chen to the Cold Palace.
Not long after, news spread that the Hua family had been raided and exiled.
The Hua family's affair once again demonstrated the emperor's heartlessness.
So what if she's a favored concubine?
If someone were to confiscate property or exile someone, the emperor would show them no mercy.
The Emperor did not punish Consort Chen for this matter.
It was later discovered that Consort Chen had been framed, and she was released from the Cold Palace and regained the Emperor's favor.
After this ordeal, Consort Chen's heart could never be warmed again.
She had given up on the emperor.
Thinking of the fact that all the men, women, and children of the Hua family had been exiled, Consort Chen was completely disappointed in the Emperor.
After that, Consort Chen lived like a living dead person. No matter how much the emperor tried to please her, she would no longer flatter him.
Later, the emperor lost patience. The palace was never short of beautiful women, let alone favored concubines.
Not long after, Consort Chen fell out of favor completely.
In the imperial harem, without the emperor's favor, anyone can trample on you.
