Chapter 1929: Obstruction Chapter 1929: Obstruction Editor: Henyee Translations As soon as the Crown Prince broached the topic, a silent exchange swept through the assembly, a tacit acknowledgnt of expectations being t.
However, this realization stirred a myriad of uncomfortable emotions within them.
“Crown Prince, perhaps we ought to tread cautiously in this matter.
The distance between Anze Province and the capital spans 500 kiloters.
It’s imperative we thoroughly scrutinize the situation there.
Any missteps or oversights could inadvertently implicate Your Highness…” The sentint found unanimous agreent among the gathered advisors.
“Indeed, a more circumspect approach is warranted.” “…Certain individuals seem intent on stirring trouble for the Crown Prince.
We must exercise heightened vigilance during this period.
Any misstep could have grave repercussions.
It’s crucial to recognize they lack the Crown Prince’s compassion and wisdom.” “Absolutely, couldn’t agree more.” “…” The advisors voiced their concerns simultaneously, emboldened by the Crown Prince’s evident dilemma, tilting the discourse in a more cautious direction.
“…I don’t wish to appear petty, but this situation does seem rather peculiar.
Permit to be candid.
Despite the dispatch of an imperial army, Lord Shao’s return empty-handed remains confounding.
How much ti has elapsed?
It strains belief!
Ahem, forgive my curiosity.
I rely seek clarification, nothing more!” A single stone cast into the pond sparked a thousand ripples, intensifying the discussion among the advisors.
“I share the sa doubts!” “Indeed!
After a decade, those mountain bandits should have only grown more formidable and entrenched.
It defies logic that Lord Shao handled them so effortlessly, almost as if they were re illusions!” “Exactly.
Lord Shao’s expertise lies in governance, not military tactics or combat.” “His victory does seem remarkably… implausible.” “Could there be undisclosed factors at play?
Alas, the divide between us and the truth is vast.” “…Perhaps Lord Shao embellished the situation to hasten his return to the capital?
Ahem, just a thought.
No need to take it seriously!
I, too, believe Lord Shao to possess integrity.” “True, yet uncertainties linger.
Moreover, he might co to regret his decision once he’s there…” “Ah!
Could this be a plot, then?
Soone orchestrating events to ensnare the Crown Prince?” “Difficult to say…” “…” The Crown Prince’s brow furrowed slightly, a tinge of discontent creeping in.
He maintained faith in Shao Yunduan’s character, confident he wouldn’t allow misleading information to reach the capital.
Nonetheless, the remarks swirling around him unsettled his conviction.
But what if… Furthermore, there was the looming question of who orchestrated the supposed trap, knowing of his desire to recall Shao Yunduan.
If he exploited this opportunity to summon him back, what if the accolades were unfounded or complications arose?
The bla would ultimately fall on him, and his adversaries wouldn’t relent so easily.
Although the advisors’ words were a little sharp and unpleasant, what they said was not completely unreasonable.
More importantly, they were all thinking for him.
He had to accept this kind gesture.
“Forget it, let’s think about this matter carefully.
Go back and ask more about it.
Sigh!” Crown Prince sighed, feeling rather regretful.
