Unable to dissuade Qin Zhenzhen, Su Bin shared the details of the unfolding situation.

First, he delved into the root causes of the riot in Three Flowers County.

“What motivated the instigators behind this disturbance?” he pondered.

“Based on intelligence gathered by the Dragon Phoenix Hall, it appears that the agitators are descendants of the previous dynasty.”

“Their objective is clear: to sow discord, intensify the strife between the government and the commoners, and shape a narrative unfavorable to the current emperor.”

“Their aim is to broadcast the message that the emperor is ineffective, the officials compel the people to rebel, and the populace is left with no alternative but to rise up. Subsequently, the government deploys forces to brutally quell the uprising, reinforcing the perception that the people have no recourse.”

“The ultimate goal is to foment widespread dissatisfaction with the government.”

“They’ve strategically employed a secret passage for their retreat, indicating a desire to conserve their forces.’

“I suspect Three Flower County serves as a testing ground for their tactics.

Success here could lead to similar endeavors elsewhere.”

“In any case, they incur minimal losses. The casualties were predominantly last-minute recruits, while those with skills and allegiance remain unscathed, ensuring their ranks grow steadily.”

“As officials coerce people to rebel in various regions, fueled by rumors that transform falsehoods into truths, the existing government corruption amplifies public discontent.”

“The current emperor’s perceived inaction only adds fuel to the fire.”

“Let the Public House pursue its interests unchecked, but if they wish to safeguard their lucrative network, they must offer sufficient incentives to those  supporting them. Turning a blind eye to corruption among their ranks is the price they’ll pay for loyalty.”

“At the same time, the Public House exerts considerable effort to amass wealth, solidifying their influence to the point where even the emperor is within their sphere of control.”

“In sustaining this dynamic, the more silver they require, the more they exploit the system, bending laws to line their own pockets.”

“Can you fathom the hardships faced by ordinary civilians in such a climate?” “Even holding an official position becomes a daunting task.”

“Entering the bureaucracy necessitates connections within it; failure to establish ties results in swift ostracization, potential demotion, or worse— framing and even loss of life.”

“In this challenging atmosphere, the descendants of the previous dynasty deliberately incited unrest, manipulating the populace to their advantage.”

Qin Zhenzhen fixed her gaze on Su Bin.

His keen insights left a strong impression.

Without her exposure to literature, and without Fourth Brother’s rebirth, how could Su Bin have arrived at such conclusions?

Su Bin chuckled. “I digress.”

Qin Zhenzhen responded, “No, you’re not veering off course. This is about interconnected issues.”

“Are you suggesting that my fourth brother might be viewed as a pawn orchestrated by the descendants of the previous dynasty to infiltrate the military camp?”

Su Bin nodded. “It’s a possibility, given that those individuals have likely achieved their objectives. Many of the initial casualties inflicted by soldiers were last-minute civilian recruits.”

“If they successfully retreat through the secret passage, and Fourth Brother and his team exploit the chaos, it could spell trouble. Accusations might arise, claiming Fourth Brother is a pawn of the enemy.”

“Fortunately, Fourth Brother’s operatives acted swiftly, burning some alive and capturing the rest, including nearly twenty leaders. They’ve already been dispatched to the capital.’

“Soon, these captives will divulge their secrets, hopefully thwarting similar incidents in the future..
