I really became a king.

Chapter 30: Prince Duan's Seventh Son
Jiang Yi walked out of Tingtao Pavilion refreshed. The land of gentleness is the tomb of heroes. Although he likes the feeling of being with her, he cannot indulge in it after all.

Love is something that is developed slowly, but some things must be done immediately!
After he left Tingtao Pavilion, the Tingtao Pavilion, which had been as quiet as a stagnant pool of water for two years, instantly became the most lively place in the entire Prince Duan's Mansion, with groups of maids and old women coming in and out to tidy up every corner.

"Wan'er, Xiaobao didn't say when he would be back." Mo Li ate a few bites and put down his bowl and chopsticks.

"Miss, the prince will be back soon this time." Dong Wan'er looked at her young lady and felt like crying.

She felt that the best thing she had ever done was to keep the rumors that could kill people outside Tingtao Pavilion, so that the fairy in front of her who was not affected by the worldly affairs would not be destroyed or desecrated in the slightest.

Mo Li nodded, looked at the little figure beside the dining table, and said, "Don't eat the lamb horns, Xiaobao likes this dish, save it for him."

The little lamb croissant, who was originally wolfing down the food, pouted in grievance, said "oh", and reluctantly gave up her favorite dish in front of her.

Dong Wan'er smiled and patted her little head, looking at the busy crowd in Tingtao Pavilion, knowing that her young lady had found someone who could protect her and officially became the mistress of this huge palace.

But at the same time, I was a little worried. Can this peaceful and quiet life last? I silently prayed that I would not lose in the Dragon Gate Tournament in a month.

In the Jingqi Hall, there was no longer the noise as before. Seven figures were sitting silently on the armchairs on both sides.

Prince Duan Jiang Lie had seven sons, all of whom were present except Jiang Yi.

The eldest brother, Jiang Zhongshan, was in his early thirties, with a sturdy build and a rough face. He was two meters tall and looked like a little giant. He was currently sitting in the first seat on the right, resting his eyes.

The second brother, Jiang Zhongchi, was thirty years old, tall and straight, with a somewhat gloomy face. He sat quietly on the upper left, thinking about something in his mind, with a changeable expression on his face.

Prince Duan Jiang Lie and his other sons sat below the two men, some sipping their tea, some dozing off with their heads down, or some looking up blankly.

The remaining person, sitting at the very bottom, with eagle eyes and a hooked nose, was An Daohui, the manager of the Northern Frontier Branch, and also the most uncomfortable person in the Jingqi Hall.

If possible, he would rather work as a gatekeeper than sit here, but there was no other way, he had to sit here.

"Are you just going to sit here and do nothing?" Jiang Zhongchi spoke up, very dissatisfied with the state of his brothers.

Just a few hours ago, he returned with dozens of royal family generals, full of vigor and vitality. Several brothers surrounded him and flattered him, which made him feel that he was determined to win.

Jingqitang also became his home ground, just waiting for the real culprit to show up and cause trouble.

But now everything has changed. First, his trusted eunuch Longbel was beheaded outside the gate. Then, dozens of Northern Frontier warriors who had secretly relied on him were imprisoned in the Douniu Mansion because of a word. Finally, several of his biological mother's trusted servants were beaten to death in front of him.

This series of actions completely shocked his brothers, causing the current silent and awkward atmosphere.

"Second brother, you can't compete with sixth brother, so why bother about it." Jiang Zhongshu, the third son of Prince Duan's Mansion, who was sipping tea, said this, then picked up the book in his hand and looked at it while shaking his head. He looked a little fat.

“Yes, second brother, don’t make sixth brother angry. He has the final say in the entire palace now. What if…” A young man with a pale face looked a little scared, as if he remembered the arrogant, moody and tyrannical figure.

Jiang Zhongchi's face froze. To be honest, he was a little scared of his sixth brother before, so he ran to Northern Xinjiang a few years ago.

But according to the information he collected in the past two years, his sixth brother has changed now. Perhaps it is because he was suppressed and disciplined by his mother, or maybe reading has changed his brain, he has become very kind, and this kindness is a kind of weakness in his eyes.

This was also the reason why he decided to launch an attack after returning with his power, but judging from a series of events today, his sixth brother did not seem to be as kind and easy to bully as he imagined.

Glancing at the other three brothers who were sitting there without saying a word, Jiang Zhongchi looked a little disdainful. He was just a bastard born to a maidservant, and today he could only sit there and go through the motions. "Brothers, I'm sorry to have waited for a long time, but I'm late." Jiang Yi walked into the Jingqi Hall before he arrived, and bowed repeatedly as he walked.

"Sixth brother."

"Sixth brother."

"Brother Six."

"Join Your Majesty."

"..."

As Jiang Yi walked in, a response sounded immediately in the Jingqi Hall. Seven figures, whether they were resting with their eyes closed or daydreaming, stood up, including Jiang Zhongchi with a gloomy face.

Jiang Yi smiled and walked like a dragon and a tiger, and walked directly to the main seat below the Tiger Roaring in the Forest, and said:
"Brothers, please forgive me. I just went to comfort your sister-in-law."

"Is my sister-in-law okay? Some people in the mansion are really bold and almost offended the noble. They should be severely punished." The chubby Jiang Zhongshu said, his face filled with indignation.

Jiang Yi glanced at his third brother, whom he had never dealt with in the past two years, and said, "Thank you for your concern, third brother."

Then he casually glanced at the book in his hand and said with a smile: "Third brother also likes reading?"

Jiang Zhongshu smiled unnaturally: "I heard that Sixth Brother likes reading, Third Brother also found a few books to read, and he really learned a lot."

"Yes, yes. Tomorrow I will find some books to read and learn more from my sixth brother." The fifth young master of the palace, who looked timid, also smiled and said.

"Haha, okay, let's study together as brothers if we have a chance."

Jiang Yi waved his hand and said, "Brothers, please take a seat. We haven't been together for a long time. Please sit down and talk."

"And Manager An, please sit down too."

After saying that, he sat down in the main seat. Seeing that Jiang Yi had already sat down, the other people sat down again.

Jiang Yi liked the feeling of being in control of the rhythm, and secretly sighed in his heart that although Jiang Zhongbao was dead, his fierce power was still there. It helped him a lot, and he trained these brothers like sheep, obedient and saved him a lot of trouble.

Of course, there are only four people: the third, fifth, fourth and seventh. As for the eldest and the second, he needs to subdue them himself.

"Brother, our father...can't we provide medical treatment in the imperial capital?" Jiang Yi looked at Jiang Zhongshan and asked.

Jiang Zhongshan looked gloomy, shook his head and said, "I've tried everything, but it doesn't work."

"Alas, my father is still in his prime, but... I guess what he is most worried about is the Prince Duan's Mansion..." Jiang Yi paused and guided the topic to the main topic:
"All we brothers can do is to protect the lineage of Prince Duan's Mansion and maintain our father's last dignity."

"I think you all know about the Dragon Gate Tournament. Brothers, please share your opinions."

"After all, this concerns the honor and shame of our lineage of Prince Duan, and I dare not act arbitrarily."
