I really became a king.

Chapter 20 Jiang Zhongbao invites the wolf into the house
Thousands of cavalrymen rode their horses towards the imperial capital, charging like a tsunami. An overwhelming aura filled the air. Leading the way was a half-bearded man wearing the armor of Prince Dali, and half a step behind him was a nobleman in red armor who looked similar.

Jiang Yi stood quietly under the plaque of Prince Duan's Mansion, oblivious to the domineering and oppressive force on horseback, until thousands of cavalrymen pulled up in front of Prince Duan's Mansion, and then he took a step forward.

He bowed and said, "Meet the Second Uncle."

The retainers and officers behind him also bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"How dare you! You don't even kneel down when you see Prince Zhong!" the red-armored nobleman scolded.

Fulong, Lu Fan and Duo Luo stood there unmoved. Although the others looked a little flustered, they did not make any other unnecessary movements.

The red-armored nobleman's face became even angrier, and he wanted to say something, but Prince Zhong waved his hand to stop him.

"Excuse me, Second Uncle. The civil strife in the palace has just been quelled, and the people around me are really not presentable." Jiang Yi apologized with a smile.

Prince Zhong Jiang Se's eyes flashed with anger, then he laughed and said, "It's okay, the emperor's uncle knows your difficulties, and he rushed here without stopping after hearing the news."

"Thank you for your concern, Second Uncle. Now that the civil strife has been quelled, I'm sorry that you made such a wasted trip," Jiang Yi replied.

Jiang Se smiled and waved his hand, not caring at all, and then said: "Let's go into the palace together, and the emperor's uncle will calm you down!" After saying that, he did not ride his horse directly into the palace, but dismounted and walked forward on foot.

"Father..." The noble young man in red armor beside him was stunned. Hadn't they discussed it before? He wanted to say something but was directly scolded by Jiang Se.

"You uneducated thing, why don't you get off your horse and come into the palace to help calm your brother down!"

Jiang Yi did not react to this at all. He turned his body to the side and stretched out his hand, saying, "I have already prepared delicious food and wine for the emperor's uncle. Open the door and welcome the emperor's uncle into the palace!"

As soon as the voice fell, the door of Prince Duan's Mansion, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened. Then Jiang Yi turned around and walked straight into the palace without waiting for the other party to go ahead.

It's easier to invite a deity than to send it away. Jiang Zhongbao, oh Jiang Zhongbao, who did you invite? We can only act according to circumstances. It would be best if we don't make things awkward. If it really comes to that, we can only tear each other's faces apart.

Prince Zhong Jiang Se narrowed his eyes and saw that there was a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps inside the palace gate. Soldiers were everywhere and the security was very strict. There was no sign of civil unrest at all, which seemed to be different from what he had expected.

"It's just a childish demonstration!" Jiang Se sneered in his heart and said casually, "Commander Chen, you wait outside the mansion. Let Shi Huai and General Qi accompany me in."

Jiang Yi slapped his forehead and said, "Uncle, please forgive me. The house is too small to accommodate so many people." Then he turned around and said, "General Manager Duo, you stay and entertain Commander Chen and the others."

Afterwards, he led Prince Zhong and the other two into the palace.

During the conversation, Prince Zhong and his son intentionally or unintentionally led the topic to a certain direction, but Jiang Yi just didn't respond and kept talking about other things. Gradually, the father and son began to feel impatient.

"Alas, your father and I are brothers from the same mother. I didn't expect that during my brother's absence, Prince Duan's Mansion would have such a big mess. It's my fault for not taking good care of it." After three rounds of drinking, Prince Zhong's tone was a little drunk.

"Yes, I didn't expect that Fan Muqiu would be so ambitious and do such a rebellious thing! But after all, they are just a bunch of clowns and are not worthy of being on the stage."

Jiang Yi had a look of anger on his face, completely ignoring the strange looks in the father and son's eyes when he mentioned Fan Muqiu.

"Don't worry, nephew. I will take care of this Prince Duan's Mansion for you in the future. Although you can't live here for a long time, your brother is also very careful. Let him stay here with you in the future." "You brothers must work together to manage this Prince Duan's Mansion well."

Jiang Shihuai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "From now on, you and I will work together to manage the Prince Duan's Mansion, and this Prince Duan's Mansion will definitely restore its former glory!"

Jiang Yi smiled but said nothing, but he was feeling angry in his heart. He couldn't understand what Jiang Zhongbao was thinking in his previous life. He actually let a wolf into the house and allowed outsiders to enter the house so blatantly. What kind of mentality did he have?
But that was Jiang Zhongbao, and now Jiang Zhongbao is dead. The one sitting here is Jiang Yi, and he will not allow anyone else to snore on his couch!

Humph, since his own Prince Zhong’s Mansion can only have one heir, he started to plan for his other son to be the heir of Prince Duan’s Mansion? In his previous life, Jiang Zhongbao could endure it for several years for whatever reason, but he, Jiang Yi, would not accept such humiliation!
Jiang Se and Jiang Shihuai looked at each other, and Jiang Shihuai said, "Eighteenth brother, father is a little drunk, let's find a room for him to take a rest."

Here they come! Jiang Yi shook his head gently and said, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. The situation in the palace has just been pacified, but there may be fish that slip through the net. What if the emperor's uncle is injured again..."

"Haha, it doesn't matter. In terms of martial arts cultivation, I am one level higher than your father. Besides, with Chief Steward Qi here, no one can hurt me..."

"This...I wonder if the emperor's uncle has anything else that I need you to arrange?"

Jiang Se thought Jiang Yi had already figured it out, and his face regained its arrogance. He said with regret, "It's a pity that Mu Xiruo ran back to the Northern Frontier..." Then his true nature was revealed, and he smiled strangely, "The nephew got to eat alone, so the uncle can only make do with something else..."

"Brother, have you heard that your brother's Crown Prince's wife is as beautiful as a lotus in pure water, and is a fairy who is not concerned with worldly affairs..." Jiang Shihuai also laughed slyly.

Jiang Yi stood up suddenly, his face filled with anger. He really couldn't stand it anymore. Let things get awkward, these guys are not human, they are all fucking scum!

"Uncle Fu, see you off!"

The strange smiles on the faces of Jiang Se and his son suddenly stopped, and then their faces turned red and they looked at Jiang Yi with ferocious and terrifying eyes.

"What is your nephew doing? Do you want to go back on your word? We had already made an agreement before!" Prince Zhong Jiang Se said in a sinister voice.

"Are you going to deny it after eating it all? You were in my room last night..." Jiang Shihuai immediately jumped up into a rage.

"Shut up!" But he was scolded by Jiang Se before he could finish his words. Jiang Shihuai stood there panting and didn't say a word, just staring at Jiang Yi.

Wipe it clean after eating and refuse to admit it? According to the memory of the previous life, Jiang Zhongbao seemed to have an unclear relationship with Jiang Shihuai's wife.

And if he guessed correctly, the reason why Princess Duan's temperament changed drastically in her previous life was probably related to these two people. How could a scumbag like Jiang Zhongbao have such great luck?
When Jiang Yi shouted, Fulong pushed the door and walked into the room, and now stood silently beside Jiang Yi.

"Fan Muqiu has evil ambitions. I was deceived by him before, but now I have come to my senses!" Jiang Yi knew that the more he explained, the more complicated it would become. The hidden story could not be made clear at all.

Besides, as long as no one finds out that Jiang Zhongbao secretly plotted to murder his biological father, it will be fine. Besides him, only Fan Muqiu knows about this, and Princess Duan also knows about it. I believe the possibility of it being exposed is not high. As for other things, they are all trivial matters.

"No wonder Mu Xiruo was able to leave safely..." Jiang Se said, and then said in a fierce voice: "From what I know, your father may not live for many years. Without my help, I wonder how you will be able to sit firmly on the throne of the crown prince..."

"Don't worry about this, uncle. Take care." After saying this, Jiang Yi bowed and walked towards the back hall.
