Zhou Sheng didn't expect that Xiao Chensi would be such an easy person to talk to.

Before this, he had also met Xiao Chenjiu.

But Xiao Chenjiu doesn't have as much patience as Xiao Chensi, nor does he have as much magnanimity as Xiao Chensi.

When chatting with Xiao Chenjiu, he felt that Xiao Chenjiu looked down on them.

When talking to them, they are always condescending.

But Xiao Chensi would not do that. Xiao Chensi was also very friendly when talking to them.

Faced with such a situation, Zhou Sheng understood why Xiao Chensi was the prince and Xiao Chenjiu was not liked by others.

After seeing Zhou Sheng off, someone next to Xiao Chensi came over and said, "Your Highness, Zhou Sheng is pretty good, and the people around him who have a good relationship with him are also good, but will they really come to help Your Highness?"

Xiao Chensi hummed: "Zhou Sheng will come, as for the others, I'm not sure."

After this meeting, Xiao Chensi could see that Zhou Sheng was dissatisfied with Xiao Chenjiu and the others.

Besides, given Xiao Chenjiu's arrogance, he would definitely look down on ordinary people like Zhou Sheng.

Hearing this, the guard next to him said, "The Second Prince will probably know about your Highness's meeting with Zhou Sheng soon."

"It's okay to know."

The guards beside him were a little confused and didn't understand what Xiao Chensi meant by this.

"After hearing the news from our father, Xiao Chenjiu should have guessed that such a situation would happen." Xiao Chensi said with certainty.

Xiao Chenjiu looked down on Zhou Sheng from the very beginning. Now Xiao Chenjiu would be angry, but he was more just angry at losing to them.

Rather than losing a good helper.

Sure enough, when Xiao Chenjiu knew that Zhou Sheng had met Xiao Chensi, his face suddenly changed, and he said angrily: “Grandfather, this is the person you like. As soon as this bookstore came out, he contacted the prince.”

Su Hui didn't expect that Zhou Sheng would contact the prince so quickly.

After contacting the person, based on Zhou Sheng's character and the prince's excellence, Zhou Sheng would definitely choose Xiao Chensi instead of the second prince Xiao Chenjiu.

Rubbing his brows, Su Hui said, "We can't do anything about Zhou Sheng. After all, Zhou Sheng has never accepted our help, and we can't use our kindness to imprison him."

Not only Zhou Sheng, but also the people around Zhou Sheng are like this.

Now Su Hui really regrets it.

At that time, I thought there wouldn't be any problem with the final result, so I didn't take it seriously. Who knew it would turn out like this.

Now Su Hui even began to suspect that the emperor deliberately announced such news at this time in order to target their family.

"Grandfather, what should we do about this?" Xiao Chenjiu asked with a frown.

Su Hui remained silent.

The emperor's sudden action disrupted all their arrangements.

Originally, he could have gotten a lot of capable assistants this time, but because of the emperor's actions, all his arrangements were ruined.

They couldn't say even a word about it.

"Grandfather, how should we deal with this matter?"

Hearing this, Su Hui frowned and looked at Xiao Chenjiu.

For such a long time, Xiao Chenjiu seemed to have never dealt with these things on his own.

Every time something happens, I come to ask them what to do.

In the short term, Su Hui didn't feel anything, but now looking at Xiao Chenjiu who only asked what to do when something happened, he somewhat looked down on this person.

Why didn't I realize he was so useless before?

Seeing that Su Hui didn't say anything but just looked at him, Xiao Chenjiu was a little dissatisfied: "Grandfather, did you hear what I said?"

Su Hui said impatiently: "Okay, this matter cannot be changed."

When Xiao Chenjiu heard Su Hui say that this matter could not be changed, his face suddenly turned gloomy and ugly.

Frowning at Xiao Chenjiu who was always angry in front of him, Su Hui's tone became impatient.

"Now that the matter has come to this point, even the emperor knows about it. What else do you expect to do?" Su Hui was a little impatient with this.

"Grandpa, I'm leaving first." Xiao Chenjiu stood up and left with a cold face.

Looking at Xiao Chenjiu like this, Su Hui felt that Xiao Chenjiu was even worse than Xiao Chensi.

When did Xiao Chensi ever act like this?

Even if someone pointed out that he had done something wrong, Xiao Chensi would not get so angry about it. He would not be like Xiao Chenjiu, who could only be furious and helpless.

Shaking his head in disappointment, Su Hui continued to think about what to do next.

Xiao Chenjiu returned to his mansion, and the more he thought about Su Hui's attitude, the more dissatisfied he became.

Finally, I decided to talk to Concubine Su about this matter.

When Concubine Su heard this, she frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Chenjiu in front of her with some dissatisfaction.

"My son, you should know how good your grandfather is to you. This incident was just an accident. Are you dissatisfied with your grandfather?" Concubine Su asked Xiao Chenjiu in front of her unhappily.

Xiao Chenjiu opened her mouth, and was somewhat unhappy with Concubine Su's accusation. She frowned and said, "Mother, this matter was originally the fault of my grandfather. How can you say this to me?"

Concubine Su looked at Xiao Chenjiu sharply, and her expression became even uglier when she thought of the Queen's son.

"Xiao Chenjiu, if it weren't for your grandfather, do you think so many ministers would be willing to support you?" Concubine Su was also very dissatisfied with this matter, and she pointed at Xiao Chenjiu and scolded him.

Xiao Chenjiu widened his eyes and looked at Concubine Su in disbelief. What nonsense was she talking about?

When did I become so unpopular?

"Do you think you are Xiao Chensi and can rely on your own abilities to get what you want? Xiao Chenjiu, don't be so naive. You can be where you are today because of your grandfather. Without your grandfather, you would be nothing." Concubine Su was not afraid of hitting Xiao Chenjiu. She looked at Xiao Chenjiu in front of her with cold eyes and said.

Xiao Chenjiu looked at Concubine Su, and suddenly had an idea that he shouldn't have. He stared at Concubine Su intently: "I am a puppet raised by your Su family, right?"

Concubine Su's eyes flickered slightly, and a fake smile appeared on her face: "My son, what nonsense are you talking about? How could your mother treat you like this?"

Originally, he just had this sudden thought and guess, but now seeing Concubine Su say this, Xiao Chenjiu finally realized that what he thought was good to him all these years was just to make him have no one to use except the Su family.

Concubine Su looked at Xiao Chenjiu, frowned slightly, and said sharply: "You don't believe what mother said? Hasn't mother been good enough to you all these years?"

If it were in the past, Xiao Chenjiu would definitely think that Concubine Su and the others had said good things to him, but now Xiao Chenjiu didn't have such an idea at all.

If Concubine Su really treated him well, she would not let him learn useless things, and now she even wants to compare him with the crown prince.

"You said I was useless, so why didn't you agree when Father asked me to study with the Crown Prince?"
