Chapter 1557 Cold Heart
The emperor also knew about Shao Yunduan's assassination, and he would definitely ask him about it when he saw him. As long as Shao Yunduan was willing, with his scheming, he could easily report the Fourth Prince without leaving any trace. Even if it would not cause any trouble at the moment, once the seeds of suspicion and dissatisfaction were planted, they would eventually take root and sprout.
At this moment, Shao Yunduan's heart felt like it had fallen into an ice cellar, as cold as iron.
This is the master he serves, this is the benevolent prince!
The Fourth Prince actually respected him more and more, and in order to make this matter pass as soon as possible, he even resorted to the trick of inflicting pain on himself!
That’s right, Shao Yunduan didn’t believe that the Fourth Prince saving the Crown Prince’s grandson was just an accidental coincidence. In his opinion, it was a premeditated conspiracy.
But the prince believed it.
Besides, we can't make random statements about things like this without any evidence.
At the moment, Shao Yunduan didn't have the mind to think about these things. He was completely shocked by the prince's attitude.
He had devoted all his wisdom and energy to planning for the Crown Prince. In order to protect and help him, he had offended several princes and caused his wife to suffer injustice more than once or twice.
If his wife had been a little bit weak, she would have been torn to pieces!
But she never blamed him.
The couple never blamed the prince.
But he never expected that after his wife nearly suffered a devastating disaster and finally returned safely, the prince asked him to let it go!
Tell him not to do anything and not to think about revenge on the Fourth Prince. Let him pretend that nothing happened. Forget it!
What a kind and friendly brother!
But what did this make of him? What had he done with all his heart and soul?
In the past, Shao Yunduan still had confidence, thinking that although the prince was a little too kind, kindness was always much better than cruelty and brutality. Now he knows that kindness without any bottom line is worse than cruelty and brutality!
He was disheartened and wanted to quit...
Such a lord is not worth it, really not worth it...
The prince also knew that his request was a bit excessive and felt quite uncomfortable.
He felt uncomfortable and could not help but secretly complain: The fourth brother saved his grandson's life. If he continued to force the fourth brother, what would happen? Wouldn't it be disheartening?
Isn't Qiao's family fine? Not even a single piece of news has been leaked to the outside world, and it won't affect her reputation in the slightest!
Why can't Shao Qing just let it go?
He keeps saying that he is loyal to me, but can't he bear this little injustice for himself?
Shao Yunduan didn't say anything for a long time. The resentment in the prince's heart deepened, and he also felt a little powerless and slightly panicked.
He struggled to think for a while, and then said, "Well, I will give you Sun Bai and Sun Qian as rewards. From now on, they will have nothing to do with me and will only obey your orders. They are both good at martial arts and are steady and reliable. With them protecting me, I can feel more at ease!"
Shao Yunduan finally took two steps back, bowed to the prince and said, "Thank you for your grace, prince!"
Grace? What an ironic word!
The prince was relieved when he saw this, and the awkward feeling he had was gone. He raised his hand and laughed, "No need to be polite! Shao Qing, there's no need to be so polite in front of me! I've always treated Shao Qing as one of my own!"
He patted Shao Yunduan on the shoulder, said a few more words of comfort to him, and then ordered someone to call Sun Bai and Sun Qian over on the spot.
