Murong Jiu was somewhat tempted.
The Second Prince had gathered many talents under him, some were found by himself, and some were scouted and sent by the Yun Family.
Although the Second Prince was not as spirited as he used to be in his previous life, he was instead hindered at every turn, like losing the left and right arms he had before—one was a martial arts-skilled guard whom the Second Prince personally executed under suspicion, the other were the money-earning Manager Chai and Lou Zixi.
At that time, Lou Zixi was truly near demonic in his cleverness, scheming numerous benefits for the Second Prince.
Now that Manager Chai and Lou Zixi had been taken under Murong Jiu's command, the Second Prince lost sufficient funds to bribe officials, recruit troops, train private soldiers, and also missed many opportunities to win people's hearts.
