Although the Fourth Prince had the power to inherit the throne, it must be known that he was only the fourth prince. There were eight others that had the same rights. The final person to successfully inherit the throne depends on not only their accomplishments, but also how influential they could be to foster a trusted confidant to establish their own power. These are steps that all princes had to experience.
Although Suo Jia’s scheme today had been easily seen through, he had already won the Fourth Prince’s admiration. Seeing the sulking Suo Jia, the Fourth Prince secretly decided that he definitely had to win over this child. Ten years from now, when the Fourth Prince would fight for the throne, Suo Jia would definitely be able to help him succeed!
Author’s Note:
Everyone already said that Suo Jia’s knowledge is too high, unlike an 8 year-old. This can only explain one point, which is that I have achieved my goal. Otherwise, how would I let the Fourth Prince notice Suo Jia? Of course, the Fourth Prince’s appearance is only a passing part in the plot, soon it will be gone.
As for the weight of 6000 gold, ha. This is really something I have never considered hehe, this is definitely a BUG. Sorry…
As for everything going too smoothly for Suo Jia….nnn….it is definitely a bit too favorable, but there is a reason for it. As for what the reason is, you will find out in the future. If it isn’t favorable then it won’t work, since there are shady people behind the scenes. I can only say this much, everyone should just guess the rest themselves. It should be something that can be speculated. Moreover, the story has already presented it, and it could even be said that it has been clearly written, it’s just that nobody has yet detected it.
As a final comment: never only look at the surface of things. A lot of things look like they are bright and sunny, but they are actually very dark; especially human nature, which is even more so.
