Chapter 678: Retreat to Advance (2)


Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios


The letter was quickly brought up. Count Xuan Ping took a deep breath and opened it. There were actually two pages written.


He looked over patiently. In the letter, Shangguan Hengyan had gone on a jaunt. He would not return to the capital for at least ten years.


If they were worried that the new emperor would harm their Luo family, they should resign as soon as possible and bring their family back to their hometown to retire. They did not have to worry about not having enough money to retire. He had already prepared it for them and stored it in the bank.

!!

The entire article meant one thing: He didn’t want to be emperor!


Count Xuan Ping was so angry that he fainted. He scolded, “Hurry up and send someone to look for him.’


Fu Gui quickly went to call for help.


“Wait.” Count Xuan Ping stopped him and said in a low voice, “Let them search in secret. This matter must not be made public.”


If those officials who supported Shangguan Heng knew that he was so unreliable, it would be useless no matter how many benefits he offered.


Fu Gui’s eyes flashed. “Yes.”


There was a reason why Shangguan Heng left. Lord Jing’s fall meant that only he and Shangguan Yu were left in the capital.


One had his family’s support, while the other had nothing. Wouldn’t he be pushed up? How could he be willing?


In the past, he was obedient because he was worried that Lord Jing would kill those who supported him, including his mother. However, if it were Shangguan Yu, he wouldn’t be worried at all.


Naturally, he was at ease and left boldly.


Count Xuan Ping beat up the servants of Rui Manor and calmed down a little. After confirming that no one would notice anything wrong, he left.


He originally wanted to return to the residence directly, but when he thought of the bank mentioned in the letter, he asked the coachman to take a detour.


At first, he did not think much of Shangguan Heng’s so-called retirement silver. After all, his lord’s salary was not much. However, when the shopkeeper told him that he had 500,000 taels of silver in his hand, Count Xuan Ping gasped.


While he was curious about where Shangguan Heng got so much money, he deeply realized that it would not be easy to find him this time.


There was no other reason. Shangguan Heng had handed over his savings, which meant that it had been premeditated. How could he let them find him so easily?


Even if he was really pushed to the throne, that brat would probably leave behind an imperial edict and slip away.


Count Xuan Ping had specialized in that goal his entire life and did not want to give up just like that. However, it took time to find someone, and the court affairs could not be delayed. He had no choice but to agree to let Shangguan Yu appear before the emperor.


After a while, everyone realized that not only could this prince, who usually kept a low profile, come out of the imperial study unscathed every time, but he could also perfectly and quickly solve all the problems. It was even better than the emperor’s court session.


This was simply a surprise. Many ministers had no choice but to slowly change their opinions in order to save their lives. They felt that it was not impossible for the emperor to give the throne to Lord Xian now.


Hearing his colleague’s praise for Shangguan Yu, Count Xuan Ping was anxious and helpless. After seeing Shangguan Yu’s ability, even he had to admit that his grandson could not compare to him at all.


Apart from going to the Court of Judicial Review to deal with cases every day, Song Jingchen spent the rest of his time in the study at home.


On the surface, he seemed to have left the center of power, but in fact, every day, someone would send a letter to him about the movements in the imperial court.


A knock sounded at the door.


Song Jingchen glanced at the sleepy person reading a book and asked softly,


“Do you want to go back to your room and rest?”


“There’s no need. I’m not sleepy.” As she spoke, Shen Yijia secretly wiped the drool on the desk with her sleeve.


Song Jingchen had no choice but to let South Wind in first.


“Master, there’s news about Lord Rui. Do you want to reveal it to the Luo family?”


“Where is he?” Song Jingchen asked.


“Just outside the city.” South Wind paused and continued, “He was dressed as an old woman looking for her relatives and was taken in by Miss Yuan.”


The Luo family thought that Shangguan Heng had definitely run far away in half a month, but they did not know the logic of hiding within the darkness under the light.


Hearing that it had something to do with Yuan Yuwan, Shen Yijia shuddered. Was Sister Yuwan deceived by him? We have to tell her quickly.”


The corners of South Wind’s mouth twitched. “Miss Yuan sent someone to provide us with the information.”


Therefore, the person who was deceived was not Yuan Yuwan, but Shangguan Heng, who thought that he had deceived everyone. He probably did not know that he had been recognized long ago and was still role-playing happily..
