Chapter 1104 Shao Yunduan knows clearly
All Qiao Xuan knows how to do is take care of flowers and trees, that's all, at least in the eyes of outsiders.
Besides, her ability has already been registered with the emperor, so even if the fourth prince wins her over, he won't get any benefit. And it's impossible for Peony to get sick all the time, so Qiao Xuan's use is more for emergencies, not regular use.
The Fourth Prince doesn't need to go to great lengths.
But Shao Yunduan is different.
He was able to win the first prize among so many experts, which meant he must be a man of real talent and knowledge, upright character, noble moral character, fearlessness of power, and a sense of loyalty and righteousness. More importantly, he caught the eye of the emperor and was protected by him, which was not easy.
In addition, for a family like the Qiao family, you can find out what kind of family it is with just a little inquiry. There will always be people who can see the essence: Shao Yunduan was able to cut off ties with the Qiao family without making a sound and without getting involved, which shows that his methods are extraordinary.
At least in the eyes of outsiders, Qiao Xuan doesn't have much to do here.
The Fourth Prince might not be unable to see that, on the surface, it was the Qiao family that took the initiative to sever ties, but in reality it was Shao Yunduan who got rid of a lot of trouble!
Then, it’s hard to say what he will think.
Shao Yunduan's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect his wife to be so perceptive.
"My lady, you worry too much," Shao Yunduan held Qiao Xuan in his arms, chuckled and said slowly, "Your husband is just a small editor in the Hanlin Academy. How could he be worth the Fourth Prince's efforts? Even if he really has any thoughts, it's definitely not now."
Qiao Xuan thought about it and it seemed so. She smiled and stopped thinking about it.
It would be better to think about going hiking with him!
The persimmons produced in the capital are especially sweet, the dates are especially crisp, and the grapes are especially delicious, and they are in abundance at this time of year.
When they go out to climb mountains, they can also buy some fresh fruits from farmers and look for wild mushrooms, wild fungi and wild fruits to pick in the mountains. How great is that.
Shao Yunduan knew in his heart that because of the Tian family's affairs, the Fourth Prince was indeed keeping an eye on him, but everything was still in the trial stage and not obvious.
In recent times, he has been doing his job in a low-key manner, hiding his incompetence, not attracting attention, and quietly avoiding three or two pitfalls.
So far, everything has been calm.
Shao Yunduan is waiting. He needs to be patient enough to at least wait until after this year, and then find a suitable opportunity to speak to the emperor and request to be transferred to another post.
He had thought of all the high-sounding reasons. He wanted to be a local official and do something practical for the local people.
He really wanted to do so in order to avoid the turmoil in the capital.
If I stay in the capital, the Tian family will come knocking on my door sooner or later.
Unless he finds a backer and becomes a disciple of the Crown Prince or a certain prince. But he has no such plan.
Although the time spent in the capital was not long, it was enough for a sober and calm person who was not keen on chasing fame and fortune and was only focused on climbing up to see the situation clearly.
The emperor was keen on practicing Taoism and refining elixirs in the pursuit of immortality, and he could only attend court five or six days a month at most.
Government affairs were basically handled by the Crown Prince, several princes, and the six ministers.
On the surface, the Crown Prince is regulating the country, but in reality, that is not the case.
The prince is too kind-hearted, and most government affairs must go through the involvement of various forces before a solution can be finally come up with.
