Thinking of this, Jiang Ranli asked, "Narcissistic Nine, why are you so nice to Master Eight?"
Hearing her voice, Yinzhen stopped walking while leading the horse, and after a while he said, "Because my dear brother is good to me too."
Hearing this, Jiang Ranli nodded. As far as she knew, the Eighth Prince was indeed very good to Yinzhen, but was that the reason why he was so devoted to helping him win the throne?
Seeing that there was still doubt in Jiang Ranli's eyes, Yin'er led the horse and continued to move forward, saying as he walked, "In the past, my brother's biological mother, Concubine Liang, had a lower status, so many people ridiculed and bullied my brother, either openly or secretly. But even so, my brother remained very strong and never complained."
Having said this, Yinzhen looked into the distance, where the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince were riding their horses and cheering.
"When I was a child, my brothers all said that I looked like a girl. Only Eighth Brother and Old Ten never pointed fingers at me. Instead, they always comforted me and helped me."
Listening to Yin'er's narration of the past, although only a few words, Jiang Ranli knew that he was far from being as glamorous as people appeared.
Glancing sideways, he saw Jiang Ranli looking at him with mixed eyes, and Yinzhen hurriedly smiled and spoke again, "Don't look at me like that, it makes me feel like I've suffered a great injustice. At that time, we brothers were all young, and those words were just jokes between brothers, it's no big deal."
Hearing this, Jiang Ranli looked at the person in front of her again. She found that Yinzhen was far from what was recorded in history. He had a broad mind and attached great importance to the relationship between brothers.
"So, that's why you have such a good relationship with the Eighth Master and the Tenth Master?" Jiang Ranli asked.
Yinzhen nodded, "Well, Fourteenth was very young at that time, but he always liked to follow me, Eighth Brother, and Tenth Brother, and he also followed them to comfort me. Although he knew nothing, he still said to me, 'Ninth Brother, don't be sad'."
Having said that, Yinzhen once again looked at the two figures cheering and running in the distance, a smile welling up in his deep eyes.
At this point, Jiang Ranli finally understood why Yinzhen supported the Eighth Prince so wholeheartedly in the fight for the throne, because the Eighth Prince gave him a lot of support and warmth during the dark period of his life.
Perhaps, those princes were just joking with each other at the time, but they didn't know how much harm those jokes had done to Yin'er's young mind at the time. This also led to the fact that although Yin'er did not blame them, he was not very close to them.
"What about the Fourth Master? He looks so cold and doesn't look like the kind of person who would bully others?" Jiang Ranli was very curious about this.
When Yin'er heard Jiang Ranli mention his fourth brother, his heart tightened slightly. He glanced at her secretly and felt relieved when he saw that she looked normal and had no other reaction.
He had seen Jiang Ranli and Yinzhen get along many times in the capital, and knew that Jiang Ranli treated Yinzhen differently, and that Yinzhen understood her better than he did.
All along, Yinzhen was worried that Jiang Ranli liked his fourth brother instead of him. However, during this journey to the frontier, Yinzhen discovered that Jiang Ranli's feelings for his fourth brother were not what he thought. He was very happy, but he did not dare to be completely at ease.
Although he didn't want to admit it, his fourth brother was indeed an outstanding and excellent person. Although he was also outstanding and excellent, what if Jiang Ranli still liked someone else? Therefore, he had to be vigilant at all times.
Thinking of this, Yinzhen said, "Why are you asking Fourth Brother why?"
Wasn't everything fine just now? Why did it suddenly change?
Jiang Ranli looked at Yin'er's sudden change of expression and was puzzled, but she soon realized that Yin'er was jealous.
