Chapter 1612 Thank you
Qiao Xuan was a little regretful, and said with a smile: "Since your clan leader said so, maybe something big really happened, you should go back quickly. We will set off after the first month of the new year, so you don't have to rush back to see us off. If you have time, go to Shaoding Village. I have some things that I originally wanted to send back, so why not give them to you and take them with you when the time comes."
"There's not much stuff, so it only takes two boxes that are neither too big nor too small to pack."
The two boxes could be simply loaded onto the luggage carriage, which was not a big deal. Whenever Zhao Shu traveled, he was accompanied by many servants, so two more boxes would not cause him any trouble.
That's why Qiao Xuan brought this up.
Zhao Shu was very happy to have the opportunity to serve his fifth brother and sister-in-law. He agreed with a smile: "Sure, sure, sister-in-law, just pack it up, and I'll send someone to pick it up. Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely send it back safely."
Qiao Xuan smiled: "Thank you!"
Zhao Shu smiled more cordially and attentively: "No thanks, sister-in-law, you're welcome!"
Xie Jingrong also came.
An intelligent person is an intelligent person. He is not like Zhao Shu who only sees the surface of things. When he saw Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan, he smiled and said, "Congratulations!"
Shao Yunduan bowed: "Thank you!"
This thank you was not just a polite remark at the moment, Xie Jingrong understood the deeper meaning behind it, and the two of them smiled at each other.
If Xie Jingrong had not deliberately released the message in a half-hidden and ambiguous way to the Crown Princess's family that he wanted to join the Crown Prince and serve as an official, the Crown Prince would have been very tempted and felt that losing Shao Yunduan and gaining Young Master Xie was a good exchange. However, Shao Yunduan would not have been able to get away so easily.
It was also because of this incident that Shao Yunduan finally saw clearly that in the eyes of the prince, he was actually just a useful knife and a useful chess piece.
There are many things that the old ministers who are burdened by their reputations cannot do easily, but he, who comes from a poor family and has no connections in the capital, can do them without any scruples.
Without him, it would be very difficult for the prince to find a suitable person to replace him.
But if he could get the eldest son of the Xie family, the benefits that he could bring to him would be enough to make up for this regret.
In addition, the relationship between him and Shao Yunduan had become strained, so he was disappointed and a little annoyed, so he simply let him go.
Shao Yunduan didn't dare to take the initiative to find Xie Jingrong, so he was waiting for him to come.
He had to say thank you to him face to face.
The three of them sat down in the study and talked.
Xie Jingrong and Shao Yunduan had similar thoughts. Others would suffer terribly if they went to Anzezhou, but Shao Yunduan might be able to carve out a way to survive if he went there.
It was a lawless area where dangers and opportunities coexisted.
It's worth a try.
The most important thing is that the actual situation in that place is too bad. Being an official there is equivalent to exile, and no one in the capital will pay attention to him anymore.
After a few years, any traces of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace on him would fade to the point of being almost negligible.
Only a place like that would make people look down on him, would make them never remember him again, and would allow him to wash away all traces of him.
This is a good thing!
Whenever thinking about state affairs, Xie Jingrong felt confused. He didn't think the prince could sit firmly on the throne.
Concubine Mei and the Fourth Prince are aggressive and are not easy to deal with. Empress Qi and the Third Prince are well-known for their power. The power of Concubine Sun De and the Second Prince in the army is definitely larger and more deeply rooted than others imagine.
