Chapter 1931 The Prince is Embarrassed
Unexpectedly, the prince had more than one opportunity to bring it up, but he never said a word.
Emperor Xuan of Qi shook his head. He really couldn't understand what his prince was thinking!
Forget it, the prince doesn’t have any ideas, so he won’t meddle in other people’s business.
Anyway, his court is full of talented people, so it doesn't matter to him whether Shao Yunduan returns to the capital or not. After all, he is just a minister. It would be better to let him gain experience outside for a few more years.
The Crown Prince did not say anything. Emperor Xuan of Qi finally went to court that day, but the Fourth Prince made a report: Shao Yunduan, the governor of Anze Prefecture, had made meritorious services in suppressing bandits and he should be rewarded!
It's like a drop of water falling into an oil pan and it explodes instantly!
Countless court officials subconsciously looked towards the Crown Prince, and even Emperor Xuan of Qi subconsciously glanced at the Crown Prince.
The prince's body was tense and his face was hot. If it weren't for his good self-control and determination, he would have been so ashamed and embarrassed if he hadn't been able to remain calm.
How could it not be embarrassing? Everyone knew that Shao Yunduan was his man, and everyone knew how much Shao Yunduan had contributed to him.
However, Shao Yunduan made great contributions in suppressing bandits, but it was not his master who asked for commendation for him, but the Fourth Prince who took the initiative to mention this!
This is like a slap in the face to him!
Whether the Fourth Prince was sincere or not, there was no doubt that he succeeded in disgusting the Crown Prince.
The prince suppressed the unspeakable anger in his heart, forced a smile and agreed: "Fourth brother is right, Lord Shao has made great contributions this time, and solved a disaster for our Great Qin, so he deserves a reward!"
"That's right," the fourth prince said with a smile, "Father, Lord Shao has achieved such great achievements at such a young age. He has great talent. It can be seen that it was right to be sent out of the capital. If he can gain more experience in the local area for a few more years and accumulate experience, he will definitely be a pillar of our Qin Dynasty in the future! Therefore, he should not only be rewarded, but also rewarded heavily."
The prince felt even more embarrassed, so stiff that he could hardly nod or speak, "That's right..."
Emperor Xuan of Qi smiled with an ambiguous meaning and nodded, "The Crown Prince and the Fourth Master both have a point. I will write an imperial decree that Shao Yunduan will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold, a pair of white jades, and some imperial brocade for his meritorious service in suppressing the bandits. I will order him to be a good official, govern the area, benefit the people, and not disappoint me."
The implication is that Shao Yunduan will continue to gain experience in the local area, but he will still have the opportunity to return to Beijing in the future.
Since the emperor has said so, it is conceivable that when Shao Yunduan returns to the capital in the future, he will be in great glory...
The fourth prince bowed and said with a smile: "Father is wise!"
The prince also said: "Father is wise..."
After the court was dismissed, officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel drafted the imperial edict, prepared the rewards, and discussed who to send to Anze Prefecture to convey the edict and the rewards.
The prince returned to the prince's mansion calmly, but he couldn't hold it in any longer!
The fourth brother is so abominable! He is so disgusting!
Now that there were no outsiders around and there was no need to suppress or control himself, the Crown Prince's face became hotter and hotter. Recalling the time when the Fourth Prince mentioned this matter and the countless pairs of eyes that were looking at him, either openly or secretly, the Crown Prince slammed the table heavily and gritted his teeth.
The East Palace staff were also very bored.
Those who were already jealous of Shao Yunduan became even more jealous.
What virtue and ability did Shao have that even the Fourth Prince recommended for him and the Emperor rewarded him without first sending someone to Anze Prefecture to verify the situation?
He is not in the capital, but he still stands out in the capital. How can they not be jealous? It makes them look so useless!
