Fang Chen looked at Ji Tianrui.

You better have a reason, otherwise watch your back.

Ji Tianrui coughed, without looking at Fang Chen, and spoke to Ji Xiaomu.

"Mom, someone's looking for you!"

"Someone is looking for me?"

Ji Xiaowu wondered curiously, who would come to see her at this time?

When Ji Xiaomu and Fang Chen walked out of the room, they saw Li Hong standing at the door, with Si Jing, whose belly was slightly bulging, beside him.

"Ah! Thirteen, Jingjing, you're pregnant!"

Ji Xiaomu was surprised and immediately stepped forward.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

Li Hong said respectfully, bowing slightly to Ji Xiaomu.

"Alright, we're all family, stop going through all this empty formalities."

"If we have to kneel, we'll kneel to you!"

Mother Ji joked and pulled Si Jing to sit down quickly.

"What do you want to see me for this time?"

Speaking of this, Li Hong lowered his head, hesitating, not knowing how to talk to Ji Xiaomu.

"Those families that can't buy food have come to you and want you to buy food for them, right?"

Li Hong paused.

"I can't hide anything from my elder brother and his wife..."

Fang Chen glanced at Li Hong indifferently.

Because he had already expected this to happen.

"You need their support?"

Ji Xiaomu raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Hong.

Li Hong raised his eyes and looked at Ji Xiaomu.

This isn’t… surely?

"You have military power, help, food, and weapons. Do you need those fawning families?"

Ji Xiaomu didn't quite understand Li Hong's thoughts, so she asked directly.

Li Hong paused.

Does he have so many things?

“What can they give you?”

Ji Xiaomu asked curiously.

"Their support?"

Li Hong replied.

"Verbally? Or in a behavioral sense?"

Ji Xiaomu asked quietly.

Li Hong was really stunned at this moment.

"Please tell me clearly, sister-in-law."

Li Hong glanced at Fang Chen. He looked at Ji Xiaomu with a smile. Li Hong knew that Ji Xiaomu's words must have some meaning.

"What you need to do now is not to run around for these useless families. What does it have to do with you if they are in the main city?"

Ji Xiaomu said lazily and glanced at Li Hong.

"When you become the emperor, will you also move to the main city? Instead of creating your own fortress, you will move to someone else's territory?"

Ji Xiaomu's words were like a wake-up call, which made Li Hong, who was trapped in the situation without knowing it, wake up in an instant.

"In your own territory, you can do whatever you want, but if you go to the main city, you will be restricted by them everywhere, and you will need them to do everything..."

Ji Xiaomu's words were simple, but they revealed Li Hong's situation in one sentence.

"So you condescend to them. If there is a first time, there will be a second time..."

Li Hong stood up stiffly and looked at Fang Chen.

"Just like your sister-in-law said, you are now the one with the greatest hope of becoming the emperor. Why do you have to lower yourself for these parasites? What are they to you? You have put yourself in the wrong position."

"They should be begging you to do things for them, not you doing things for them!"

Fang Chen was direct and clear, pointing out Li Hong’s current state of mind.

"I know that there are a lot of people around you right now, and they are all giving you advice, but that doesn't mean you have to listen to them!"

Fang Chen’s words made Li Hong’s face tense, and he finally realized where he was wrong.

"Chen Zihao was exiled?"

Fang Chen glanced at Li Hong, who had an ugly expression on his face. After all, he was still his brother, but his behavior was indeed disheartening.

Li Hong lowered his head in regret, because Fang Chen guessed right, he chose to trust those families instead of listening to Chen Zihao.
