Chapter 1475: Place Some of Our People There
....Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qian Jiyun said.
If the old Emperor was not afraid of the Shao family, he would not have been involved with the old Prince’s wife and even have a son with her.
However, he could not figure out what the old Emperor was up to. Throughout history, emperors had always used imperial power to destroy disloyal clans like the Shao family.
However, the old Emperor indulged the Shao family. He even wanted to help Prince Luoyang, who had the Shao family’s bloodline, ascend to the throne.
He did not understand the old Emperor’s motives.
The Luoyang Residence was right next to the capital.
Every day, news from the capital reached the head of the Luoyang-Shao family. He was a bit fearful of Qian Jiyun’s arrival.
It was because Qian Jiyun was already the commander-in-chief of an army at a young age. He was also the lord of a camp at Huayan Peak. His a.s.sets were not bestowed by the Emperor but obtained through his own strength.
“We really have to be wary of Qian Jiyun.”
In the meeting hall, Master Shao’s two sons sat on either side of him.
One of the sons asked their father anxiously, “Father, what should we do now? Are we going to let Prince Zhan Yun help the Third Prince secure the throne?”
“What’s the hurry?”
Master Shao, on the other hand, was rather calm. He glanced at his son unhappily.
“No one can take away what’s ours.”
In his opinion, Daqing Kingdom’s throne would belong to the Shao family sooner or later. So what if Qian Jiyun was capable? He was only a prince of the second rank. How could he overturn the heavens?
As long as the old Emperor did not relent, the throne would belong to his grandson instead of the Third Prince sooner or later.
“But we have to send some people to the capital. We can’t let the Third Prince dominate the situation anymore. We have to place some of our people there,” he added.
“Father, aren’t you being too careless? Prince Zhan Yun is not to be trifled with. Now that he has joined forces with the Third Prince, I’m afraid they’ll control the capital,” the other son of the Shao family said anxiously.
It would be great if things were as simple as his father thought. He was afraid that some things would spiral out of control and that the old Emperor would be unable to make decisions.
“The Three Guards are in Prince Zhan Yun’s hands. It’s only a matter of time before the capital is under his control. We can’t send more people to take back control of the Three Guards.”
“That’s right, Father. I think Big Brother is right. The Emperor is old. He cannot be in control of everything forever. Also, do you really believe that Prince De has control over the southern border?”
Master Shao’s eyes narrowed.
The southern border… He had always felt that the southern border was a problem. The 18 Stockaded Villages would not acknowledge the royal family that easily.
However, their people stationed at the southern border had received the same news as the old Emperor: the chiefs of the 18 Stockaded Villages had acknowledged Prince De as their master.
Was this all Qian Jiyun’s scheme?
“Prince Zhan Yun doesn’t have the ability to subdue the 18 Stockaded Villages either,” he said faintly.
He did not believe Prince De had control over the 18 Stockaded Villages, but he also did not believe Qian Jiyun was capable of doing so either. If he were, the 18 Stockaded Villages would have been his long ago.
“He… Forget it. Let’s not talk about the southern border for now. Distant water can’t save a nearby fire. Let’s focus on the capital first. I’ll send someone to the capital. Since the Third Prince doesn’t want to live anymore, he can leave his life behind,” he said.
