"You can't say that..."
Jiang Ming laughed and said, "She is still your sister, even if you weren't born to the same mother... that doesn't mean she wouldn't support you becoming the ruler, does it?"
"Mr. Jiang! You can't say things like that!"
Ji Bochang said nervously, "Be careful, walls have ears. If others find out, I'll..."
"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!"
Jiang Ming laughed and said, "This is my father-in-law's house, no one will hear us."
Ji Bochang swallowed hard. Although he forced a smile at Jiang Ming with an embarrassed expression, a sly glint flashed in his eyes, indicating that... he really did have that intention!
"But...that's impossible!"
Ji Bochang grinned and said, "The person she looks down on the most... is me, so how could she possibly support me? It's harder than a camel crawling through the eye of a needle!"
"My lord, the prefect!"
Jiang Ming laughed and said, "You have me, what are you afraid of? I'll figure something out for you..."
"Really? Mr. Jiang, you really can...?"

Previously, Zhao Yong had also "teased" Ji Bochang about the matter of the Yan king, frankly stating that he would "intervene by force" in the future and support Ji Bochang's succession to the throne of Yan.

In a fit of emotion, Ji Bochang knelt down before Jiang Ming and refused to get up no matter how much Jiang Ming tried to pull him up!
"Mr. Jiang!"
With tears streaming down his face, Ji Bochang said, "If it could truly be so, I... I would be willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with you, jointly ruling the Yan Kingdom..."
"Eh..."
Jiang Ming waved his hand: "I have said before that I am a cultivator and have no interest in official positions! Fortunately, you trust me and listen to my advice. If you ascend the throne and become the King of Yan in the future, I will continue to assist you!"
"Really? Mr. Jiang, I must have accumulated a lot of good fortune over several lifetimes to be able to meet you!" Ji Bochang was about to kowtow to Jiang Ming, but Jiang Ming quickly stopped him.
Just as the two were struggling, a woman's scream suddenly came faintly from the backyard of Old Master Chen's house...
