Chapter 1928 She Doesn’t Give Up
Tian Shanshan never believed that Qiao Xuan really loved Shao Yunduan. If she loved Shao Yunduan, she should not hinder Shao Yunduan's future and should leave him!
She is just a vain and hypocritical woman. She refuses to leave Shao Yunduan just to satisfy her vanity and greed.
Lord Shao was upright and kind-hearted, but he was deceived and bewildered by her.
Tian Shanshan felt sorry for Lord Shao, and became more determined to help him see the truth and see Qiao Xuan's true face one day.
All of this will be much easier if my cousin succeeds to the throne.
Right now, we must ask my cousin and aunt to find a solution. We must not let Mr. Shao return to Beijing now...
Without Lord Shao, the prince's life was not very good. It seemed that he had returned to the past when he had achieved nothing. Although the emperor had no dissatisfaction with him, he was not particularly satisfied with him either.
Especially compared with the previous time when the prince was frequently praised by the emperor, it seems even more disappointing now.
At this time, if the prince makes another serious mistake, the emperor will be furious.
When the prince learned the news that Shao Yunduan had successfully suppressed the bandits, he was very happy and excited.
He knew that the person he took a fancy to would definitely not be bad!
Gold is gold. Even if it is thrown into a corner, it will still shine and cannot be ignored.
The prince summoned his staff, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and praised Shao Yunduan highly, totally unaware that many of them were secretly exchanging glances with stiff expressions.
Not everyone was as happy as the prince.
Those who were jealous of Shao Yunduan in the first place, finally managed to drive Shao Yunduan away. They were all celebrating and gloating, waiting to see Shao Yunduan's misfortune and downfall, until he would end up with nothing, be good for nothing, and be forgotten by everyone.
Unexpectedly, Shao Yunduan not only did not fall into bad luck and give up, but in such a short time, he accomplished a stunning career and became famous in the capital! They were so unwilling and angry.
Other mature and prudent old scholars, although not as jealous of Shao Yunduan as these people, and eager to drive him away, also thought that he had a bad temper, was still young, easily impulsive, and not stable enough. Although he had made some contributions to the prince, he became more arrogant because of this, and left the prince in anger for some trivial reasons. They waited to see him hit a wall outside and get his head broken and bloody, and then after some tempering, he would come back and become a real talent.
When they discussed it in private, they all had this argument, but the result... was totally not the case!
This made them feel awkward, as if they had been slapped in the face and their authority had been challenged, and they naturally felt uncomfortable when they heard the Crown Prince mention it.
There were also some people who admired Shao Yunduan, but their friendship was far from that level. They would sigh and pity Shao Yunduan in private, and if the time was right, they might secretly inform Shao Yunduan of some news. But that was all. It was impossible for them to stand up against those people and support Shao Yunduan.
At best, they remain silent.
The prince knew nothing about this. He took it for granted that Shao Yunduan was one of his own, and these aides were also his own. So all of his own people were loyal to each other and were a close and loving family!
The prince praised Shao Yunduan, glanced at everyone and asked with a smile: "I think Shao Qing is underutilized in that small Anze Prefecture. I want to find a reason to transfer him back to the capital after the New Year. Everyone, what should I do?"
