Chapter 1188: Peace

Editor: Henyee Translations

They had lost one County Magistrate of Miyun County for seemingly no reason.

The County Magistrate might have been considered just a small official, but he held a significant position, working in the suburbs of the capital and being a key figure for the crown prince, which proved to be beneficial. Unfortunately, that support was now gone.

The newly-appointed County Magistrate refused to cooperate with him any longer, leaving the crown prince to ponder if he could trust anyone.

Two days later, without any apparent cause, the main door and the main house of his elegant courtyard mysteriously collapsed. Additionally, an investigation involving his father also collapsed inexplicably.

The Fourth Prince was not only shocked but also filled with fear, contemplating if this was a warning from the heavens.

He wondered if these events meant that the Crown Prince still enjoyed divine favor, while he felt overlooked. These thoughts stirred up a mix of fear and jealousy. Why did the heavens seem to favor the weak and hypocritical crown prince? Did they also prefer those who acted insincerely?

But the Fourth Prince was genuinely taken aback this time.

The same applied to Empress Qi, the Third Prince, Princess Concubine Virtue, and the Second Prince.

Empress Qi felt even more devastated.

As the Queen and mother of the country, she believed her son should rightfully inherit the throne. What did that have to do with the First Prince? It seemed as if the heavens were showing unfair favoritism.

After this shocking revelation, all the princes halted their actions, fearing divine repercussions. Moreover, with the New Year approaching, nobody dared to cause any trouble for their father at such a critical time. They had to consider whether they could endure their father’s wrath.

Consequently, the court entered a period of harmony, and the atmosphere became quite peaceful.

Shao Yunduan had secured his position as the Crown Prince’s intermediary due to his involvement with the reservoir project.

Even those who previously held reservations about him had changed their opinions.

They couldn’t help but admire him – he truly lived up to being Old Minister’s student.

In fact, since the Crown Prince, Old Minister Yun had never taken on any other students, but he made an exception for Shao Yunduan, undoubtedly recognizing something extraordinary in him.

Minister Old Yun had excellent judgment, which was truly admirable!

Master Yun’s stature as the Paragon of Confucianism garnered him respect and admiration from scholars all over the world, solidifying the Crown Prince’s position even further.

The Fourth Prince harbored a deep resentment towards Shao Yunduan, even blaming the Tian Family for their perceived inadequacy. He believed that had the Tian Family accepted Shao Yunduan as their disciple and orchestrated things differently, the Crown Prince would not be in his current position. The fact that Shao Yunduan had been taught by Minister Old Yun wouldn’t have mattered.

However, that opportunity had passed, and Shao Yunduan knew that he had earned the Fourth Prince’s enmity this time. Yet, as someone serving the Crown Prince’s interests and opposing the Fourth Prince, he had to bear the grudge.

In essence, everyone relied on their own abilities and circumstances.

As the twelfth lunar month approached, the weather grew colder and colder. Lixia and Liqiu found it challenging to adapt, falling ill for a few days. Thankfully, with the help of medicine and staying indoors, they soon recovered.

Qiao Xuan felt relieved, knowing that falling sick in those times could be a serious matter since medical conditions were rather primitive.
