Chapter 406: Wealth Is Easy to Obtain, but a True Friend Is Hard to Find

The two nodded.

"Although the regent has a cold temperament, he usually doesn't deliberately find fault with anyone. On the contrary, as long as you two have talents and learning ability, the regent will focus on training and reusing them." Xie Jin said, "The regent is a person who cherishes talents. You two You have to cherish this rare opportunity.”

Xuanyuan Hua and Xuanyuan Chen nodded quietly, acting very well-behaved and obedient.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiu, for the tip." Xuanyuan Hua's voice was gentle, "Achen and I must be careful in our words and deeds. We don't seek merit, but we seek no faults."

"You don't have to have such a mentality. You still have to make meritorious deeds. Being a student is only temporary and cannot last long." I won’t treat you badly, but if I do something I shouldn’t do…”

He smiled faintly: "The regent is a person who can even depose the emperor, let alone deal with some small shrimps and fish."

The two young men were awe-inspiring and kept Xie Jin's words in mind.

To sum it up, there is nothing more than one sentence - be loyal to your Majesty, do your duty, and do not exceed your status.

It sounds simple, but in fact many people often fail to grasp the word "property" and lose their sense of proportion, which leads to eventual death.

"One more thing." Xie Jin tapped the back of the chair with one hand and said in a calm tone, "I want to meet your little sister. Is she at home now?"

Xuanyuan Hua was a little surprised, "My little sister is at home, Master Jiu has something to do with her?"

"I have a question to ask her." Xie Jin said in a casual tone, "But since men and women are not intimate, it seems inappropriate for me to meet her rashly. What do you think we should do?"

this……

Xuanyuan Hua pondered for a moment: "Shall I ask mother for instructions?"

Xuanyuan Jia is a young girl who is about to leave the palace. According to the rules, she should not meet casually with foreign men. Especially after what happened in Prince Wei's palace, the etiquette and rules of the boudoir for noble ladies from major aristocratic families have become tighter.

If the princess were to know that Xuanyuan Jia had a private meeting with a foreign man, it would be difficult to explain the matter.

"No need." Xie Jin looked relaxed, "Go and ask her why the seventh girl from the Xie family came to her recently, and then come back and tell me the answer."

The seventh girl of the Xie family?

Xuanyuanhua felt strange that the seventh girl of the Xie family had been out of the court for several years and was several years older than Jiajia. The two of them seemed to have little contact.

But since Xie Jin said that, there must be a reason. He nodded and quickly turned around and walked out.

Xie Jin turned to look out the window, his eyebrows were delicate and handsome, with a natural noble demeanor.

"The royal family, the powerful and aristocratic families are all doing their own affairs, and most of them put their own interests first. It's rare to have brothers who support each other like you." A faint voice sounded, with a bit of calmness, "In life, wealth is easy to come by, but a confidant is hard to find. Since we can now Support each other and cherish this precious relationship in the future. Don’t lose your heart and forget your original intention.”

When Xuanyuan Chen heard what he said, his heart couldn't help but throb.

The more I get to know the ninth master of the Xie family, the more I feel that he is completely different from the son of the chief minister that the world knows. A young man of 18 or 19 years old, I originally thought that he was just a more noble status, good-looking, more ruthless in his methods, and in his behavior. He is fearless and dares to do things that others dare not do - but courage is something that is originally given by status.

Do you think any son of a minister dares to act recklessly in the powerful prince's palace?

Which concubine and concubine would dare to be disrespectful in front of the favored mistress' legitimate son?

Which civilian dares to act unscrupulously in front of an official?

The status of the chief minister's legitimate son can make people wantonly arrogant.

But Xuanyuan Chen later discovered that Xie Jin's aloofness and confidence did not entirely stem from his identity.

Of course, identity is still the biggest reliance.

But he is completely different from those arrogant young masters.

He is far more transparent, more free and easy, far-sighted, and calm than the young master of this age. His superficial cynicism cannot hide his strong and steady nature, and his aura that makes people surrender and fear unconsciously.

Xuanyuan Yan is also the legitimate son of a noble family, but Xuanyuan Chen has lived in the Wei Palace for so many years, but he has never felt the momentum and pride in Xuanyuan Yan. What Xuanyuan Yan showed him was "bullying others with power" and "tyrannical and unethical" , completely cold-blooded selfishness and narrow-mindedness that uses status to oppress others.

However, one day when he himself becomes the suppressed person, not only will he be completely defeated, but even his self-esteem and face will be shattered, leaving only embarrassment and cowardice without the power to fight back.

"Thank you, Master Jiu, for your advice." A faint smile appeared at the corner of the young man's mouth, and he sincerely thanked this person for what he said today, "Achen will remember Master Jiu's words, do what he can, be loyal to the Lord, and maintain his integrity. The original intention remains unchanged, and we are not tempted by worldly interests. We do not seek wealth and honor in this life, but only seek to be upright and open-minded.”

Xie Jin didn't say anything, just leaned on his chair quietly and closed his eyes to fall asleep.

About an incense stick later, Xuanyuan Hua came back, stepped through the threshold, and walked up to Xie Jin, with a somewhat hesitant expression on his face: "My little sister said that the seventh girl was asking her if the regent still has any servants around him."

Um?

Xie Jin opened his eyes, a little surprised, and then raised the corners of his mouth: "Reading?"

"Yes." Xuanyuanhua's tone was a little subtle, "Jiajia said that the seventh girl was testing her tone and wanted to know if she had a good relationship with Her Majesty the Queen and if she could speak in front of Her Majesty. Because Achen and I were singled out. Reading for the regent, she thought that the regent wanted to train a bastard from a noble family..."

A concubine from an aristocratic family?

Xie Jin raised his eyebrows and instantly understood his elder brother's plan.

How dare he think that the regent specially cultivates bastards to suppress the heads and legitimate sons of major aristocratic families?

How did this brain grow to come up with such weird ideas?

A mocking arc appeared on the corner of Xie Jin's lips, and he couldn't help but shake his head. Fortunately, he thought this man had some scheming plans, but he didn't expect... Tsk, he really looked down upon him.

"But Jiajia said that she wasn't very familiar with the seventh girl. She just met her at a lady's flower viewing party before. The seventh girl took the initiative to come over and talk to her, and they chatted for a few words." Xuanyuan Hua was afraid that Xie Jin would misunderstand. , explained cautiously, "Jiajia is smart and sensible, and generally doesn't talk nonsense. She always knows what to say and what not to say in front of unfamiliar people. Please rest assured, Master Jiu——"

"Okay, I have nothing to worry about." Xie Jin stood up, turned around and walked out, "Let's go, I will take you into the palace to do business. From now on, you will be obedient and do things. There are many rules in the palace. If you are disobedient, you will be beaten. Don’t blame me for not warning you beforehand.”

The two teenagers looked at each other in silence, and unanimously felt that although Xie Jin's words were a warning, they sounded... particularly kind.
