The Second Prince was even more vexed.
Because Shao Yunduan beca enemies with the Sun Family and they wanted to kill him, it was surprising that he had once stopped them.
Despite needing to rely on the Sun Family, he had always been kind and never refuted them easily.
Who would have thought that the only ti he opposed the Sun Family, he would end up helping Shao Yunduan!
He was so regretful that his intestines felt like they were turning green, but he couldn’t say anything...
The Fourth Prince was equally furious.
In a fit of anger, he went to the forr Princess Consort and mocked her. He pointed out how much the Crown Prince had trusted her when he was alive, only for her to turn out to be soone who cared more about the empire and her own fa!
The Princess Consort was shocked.
Her first reaction was disbelief. It seed impossible.
However, after calming down, she had no choice but to believe it. If it wasn’t true, the Fourth Prince, this traitor, wouldn’t have co to her in exasperation to vent his anger.
One had to know that she had made a fuss countless tis to see the renegade, but he had always avoided her!
The Princess Consort was furious.
"I knew it! I knew that Shao was not a good person! How dare he plot to take over the empire! Crown Prince, you’re truly wronged. None of the people you trusted and valued are good! They’ve all let you down..."
With tacit understanding, the Fourth Prince and the Second Prince stopped fighting temporarily. The more the Fourth Prince thought about it, the angrier he beca. Soone suggested involving Shao Liulang. The Fourth Prince had an idea and decided to call two mbers of the Qiao Family over.
They had to make a last-ditch effort.
He wanted to see how Shao Yunduan would deal with them!
If they could get sothing out of them, great. If not, it wouldn’t matter. Even if Shao Yunduan killed them, it wouldn’t hurt him at all.
It was a good way to test Shao Yunduan...
Just like that, a group of imperial envoys led by Shao Liulang and First Old Master Qiao went south.
Shao Liulang was shocked, scared, and envious when he found out that Shao Yunduan did not listen to anyone in the South. He had never thought such a thing would happen. He was afraid of being punished by Shao Yunduan, yet envious that Shao Yunduan could be the King of Jiangnan, famous for its prosperity and wealth!
They had grown up together, and Shao Yunduan was never as good as him in any way. He had never thought Shao Yunduan was anything special.
But what was going on? This was Jiangnan!
Were those people crazy? They actually listened to a scholar from the countryside?
This was too ridiculous!
He couldn’t even dare to dream about such a good thing. Why should Shao Yunduan have it?
All sorts of reasons mixed together. Shao Liulang had been accusing Shao Yunduan in the capital, calling him unfaithful, unfilial, shaless, and unworthy of being a human being despite reading a saint’s book. He had even made up many stories about Shao Yunduan’s dark history, making him look bad.
It was as if Shao Yunduan was a hypocrite, a despicable and evil man.
Shao Liulang was Shao Yunduan’s cousin, sharing the sa grandfather. They were very close and had grown up together.
