Shen Jingchuan was always prudent and steady, and as a general, he was most averse to acting on impulse.
If it weren't for careful consideration, why would they have bound Song Yuxiu and paraded him through the streets?

He saw through his younger sister's plan.
They cooperated and acted out this play.
They even lost the reward that was about to be received.
