Chapter 1170 Resignation
He was lucky to get through this time, but what about next time?
What if the person who harmed him next time was even more skilled? What would he do?
This kind of thing is hard to guard against, so he doesn't dare to gamble.
Therefore, the safest way is to resign!
Now that he has resigned, others will naturally stop being jealous of him or harming him, because it is meaningless to harm him!
One stone can cause a thousand ripples!
This memorial caused an uproar.
The prince was very angry.
Emperor Xuan of Qi was also very annoyed after reading the memorial.
The prince has always been relatively introverted, and he has long been accustomed to being magnanimous to others. It is impossible for him to change his temperament significantly in a short period of time.
But Emperor Xuan of Qi was so angry that he would never endure it.
Emperor Xuan of Qi naturally did not allow Shao Yunduan to resign.
Not only was he not allowed to resign, he was also given the title of "walking before the emperor", which meant that he was qualified to submit a letter to the palace to ask for an audience at any time.
You have to know that Shao Yunduan is only a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Revenue. According to the rules, he is not qualified to enter the palace to ask for an audience. If you want to submit a letter to ask for an audience, you have to ask someone qualified to help you pass it on.
This qualification is also an honor.
Especially those who were awarded as special prizes by the emperor. There has only been one such person like Shao Yunduan in the past ten or twenty years. It can be seen that this is the greatest honor among all.
In addition, he also gave a pair of rich and noble treasure vases and a jade ruyi as a consolation.
Shao Yunduan had achieved his goal, so he thanked the emperor and decided to quit while he was ahead. Naturally, he no longer mentioned resigning.
He resigned only to take precautions for Emperor Xuan of Qi. If something really happened in the future, the first thing Emperor Xuan of Qi would think of would be that he was framed, and he would not implicate Old Tutor Yun.
His move was not particularly brilliant, but given the situation, the effect was surprisingly good!
The Fourth Prince was so frustrated that he smashed the tea bowl in his study.
He lost this secret fight! He lost completely!
Now, there is no way to plot against Shao Yunduan anymore. If it happens again, not only will it be completely ineffective, but my father will also become suspicious.
At that time, there is no guarantee that you will not end up losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken.
This damn Shao Yunduan is simply a despicable villain. Who doesn't want to be respectable when they are well-known? Who would use such a rogue method?
Although Concubine Mei still looked dignified and reserved, she was very upset in her heart. She always felt that Empress Qi, Concubine Sun De, and even the Crown Prince were laughing at her and her son behind their backs!
What made the Fourth Prince even more angry was that those idle men who were "invited" by Qiao Hongxi to help build up momentum, although they did not fall into the hands of the Shuntian Prefecture's yamen runners, were all secretly captured by the Crown Prince's men.
It is impossible for the prince to send them to the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.
If this matter gets out, the Fourth Prince will lose all face and it will damage the dignity of the royal family. This is definitely not what my father wants to see.
Therefore, Qiao Hongxi was destined to become a scapegoat.
But the Crown Prince felt that this brother who was becoming more and more presumptuous and lawless should be punished, so he sent someone to deliver the letter found in the arms of an idle man to the Fourth Prince.
This is a warning to the Fourth Prince: You know exactly what he is doing! But this time, let him go, but next time, I will never let him off easily.
The Fourth Prince also understood the temper of his father and the Crown Prince. Since the Crown Prince had sent this letter, it meant that he would not pursue the matter further.
Instead of feeling fear and gratitude, the Fourth Prince was shocked, angry, and humiliated, and he even hated the Crown Prince!
