His voice was steady but revealed a hint of helplessness, “Ningning, do you think I have any room to choose? From the very beginning, our Wenren Family was tied together with the King of Chen.”

Jiang Ning said, “They are them, and you are you. You cannot choose your origin, but you can decide your actions.”

“Ningning, I am the son of the Wenren Family. I cannot betray my own family.”

“Even if you clearly know, following your family will lead to an irreparable disaster?”

“Yes.” Wenren Zong’s voice sounded tragic, “When the nest is overturned, no egg can remain unbroken.”

Jiang Ning said, “If I were you, I would pack my things and leave now. There’s no need for the entire family to die together.”

Wenren Zong turned to look at her, “Ningning, if it were you, could you bear to watch your parents, siblings die while you escape?”

“I could.”

Even if the whole world dies, does that mean you have to die too?

Once you die, everything is lost.

“I can’t.” Wenren Zong smiled, “Ningning, you seem fragile, but inside, your heart is stronger than anyone else’s.”

In the silent night, his smile seemed blurry.

After a moment, he asked, “Can I know who eventually won?”

“Prince of Huai.”

Jiang Ning knew what he wanted to ask.

Wenren Zong was evidently surprised, “I thought it would be Prince of Yu.”

In every aspect, the odds of Prince of Yu winning were much higher than those of Prince of Huai.

Jiang Ning pondered for a moment and said, “He came to relieve the Jiang Family first and missed the opportunity to save the Emperor.”

“So that’s how it was.”

Wenren Zong sighed with relief, “I’m not as good as Prince of Yu.”

Jiang Ning said, “It’s all about choices.”

“The Prince of Yu of the past was not like this. Outsiders only knew about his gifted appearance and noble status, but we all know that he would do anything for the Imperial Throne. However, at the closest moment to the throne, he gave up.”

Jiang Ning didn’t say a word.

Wenren Zong continued, “You should know that His Majesty has always valued Prince of Yu, not just because of his favored concubine mother, but also because of his ability and suitable personality. This time, the Emperor set a trap, aiming not only at King of Chen but also providing an opportunity for Prince of Yu to achieve merits, to be rightfully crowned Crown Prince, and to eliminate the negative impressions caused by his previous conflicts with me.”

“In this case, the Emperor’s intention in this matter is painstaking, on one hand drawing out the traitor King of Chen, and on the other hand giving Prince of Yu a chance to turn things around.”

“Now that I think about it, it must be so. It’s just that most people can’t figure it out.”

“That’s right, who can outsmart that old man…” Jiang Ning muttered in a low voice, “with a mind as complicated as a lotus root.”

Wenren Zong heard her, but pretended not to.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Ning’s words were quite disrespectful.

For someone as loyal and righteous as Wenren Zong, it was a bit unbearable.

However, the other party was Jiang Ning, and he didn’t think much of it.

This made Wenren Zong feel that he had once again violated his principles, both times for the same woman.

He sighed with some sadness.

“Ningning, I’m leaving now, take care of yourself,” he said, “I originally thought that if King of Chen were defeated, as long as Prince of Yu ascended the throne, but now it turns out that Prince of Huai had staged a counterattack. I’m afraid…the days ahead for your Jiang Family will not be easy.”

Without waiting for Jiang Ning to speak, he continued, “But don’t worry too much. In your mansion, the Master is the Grand General of the Northwest, and the Second Master is the Prime Minister. Unless it’s a madman like King of Chen, even if Prince of Huai becomes the Crown Prince, he won’t go too far. However, there is no doubt that he will target Prince of Yu..”
