Capítulo 1784: Chapter 1784: Determined to Win
Su Yunjin closed the door and turned to look at Gu Ya.
“Husband, now that we’re up the mountain, can you tell the Prince’s conspiracy?” Su Yunjin didn’t want to be left in the dark, even though she followed Gu Ya’s words to temporarily take refuge on the mountain, Su Yunjin still wanted to know the reason. Gu Ya understood his wife’s temperant, and knew that if he didn’t tell her about the matter, she wouldn’t easily let it go.
Thus, Gu Ya didn’t hide it from her anymore and briefly explained, “Yun Niang, soone placed by Ning Wang at the Prince’s side received news that Ning Wang will arrange for soone to kidnap you in the next few days and also withdraw from the town.” Gu Ya and Ning Wang’s plan was to force the Prince out.
Ning Wang and Rui Wang were close, and Ning Wang wrote to Rui Wang about the matter, asking for his help. With the assistance of Ning Wang and Rui Wang, the territories managed by the Prince have recently been plagued by bandits. Rui Wang reported to the Emperor that if any territory governed by the Princes of Donglin showed bandit activity, it must be dealt with by the Princes themselves.
Usually, the presence of a few bandits isn’t a major issue, and the Princes can easily send a few people to handle it; the Emperor rarely intervenes, leaving it entirely to the Princes to deal with. But if there are too many bandits in a Prince’s territory, it’s considered dereliction of duty, and the Emperor would be infuriated.
If severe, the Princes might lose the lands they govern. The Prince is now facing the risk of losing his territory; he will definitely return to his territory as soon as possible to solve the bandit issue. The sudden frequent appearance of bandits in the Prince’s territory indicates that soone is behind the scenes.
The Prince suspects soone is tampering in his territory, yet he’s too late to ponder more. The imdiate priority is solving the bandit issue in his territory; the Emperor’s decree is already in his hands. It’s clear that if he doesn’t quickly resolve the bandit problems, his territory will be handed over to soone else for temporary managent. Moreover, the Emperor will send soone to help eliminate the bandits.
What the decree truly suggests is confiscation. If his territory is truly handed over to others, even the surna of the territory might change in the future.
The territory was personally entrusted to him by the old Prince; he wouldn’t give it up willingly, even risking his life, let alone being daunted by re bandits.
Imdiately, the Prince arranged for people to pack up; he will rush back to his territory as quickly as possible. Thinking of Su Yunjin, initially, the Prince planned to patiently make Su Yunjin fall in love with him and then take her away. But it seems that won’t work now; he must leave quickly, and Su Yunjin is not soone the Prince wants to let go easily.
Jiang Mang crudely suggested that the Prince kidnap Su Yunjin. To Jiang Mang, won could be easily coaxed, and Su Yunjin, a rural woman, being favored by the Prince, was a blessing of several lifetis. Usually, the Prince would never agree with Jiang Mang’s suggestion.
Yet now, the Prince deed Jiang Mang’s suggestion a good strategy. Even if Su Yunjin would hate him for it, the Prince didn’t believe he couldn’t win over Su Yunjin’s heart, nor did he believe that he, a dignified Prince, couldn’t surpass a re village husband. Su Yunjin was soone he was determined to acquire.
