SPRINGTIME FARMING: A HAPPY WIFE AT HOME

Chapter 1589: Crown Prince’s Embarrassment

Editor: Henyee Translations

This was Xie Jingrong’s suggestion after gauging the Crown Prince’s stance, and it resonated with Shao Yunduan.

Initially confused, Shao Yunduan hadn’t considered this possibility at first.

Indeed, wouldn’t it be more advantageous to seek release from his current position rather than persisting in the capital? What one doesn’t know or see can’t harm them. The future conduct of the Crown Prince, whether good or bad, was no longer of concern to him.

Having fulfilled his duties and exerted considerable effort, Shao Yunduan, now emotionally detached, had no intention of obstinately persevering. He envisioned leaving the capital far behind; regardless of who ruled the empire in the future, he would remain a subject.

While he hoped for the Crown Prince’s eventual success, he no longer prioritized merit.

Fortuitously, he found the right moment to voice his decision.

The Emperor, caught off guard, briefly froze before responding coldly, “Shao Yunduan, are you serious? Do you comprehend the gravity of your words?”

“Your Majesty, upon reflection, I believe this is the most suitable course of action.”

The Emperor stared at him with a sneer. “So, you do understand your place.”

Shao Yunduan kowtowed once more.

“Go inform the Crown Prince of your decision!”

The Emperor wanted the Crown Prince to make the final call.

Shao Yunduan’s heart sank, but he dared not utter further protest. “Yes, I will.”

Without delay, Shao Yunduan proceeded to the East Palace.

Upon hearing that Shao Yunduan sought an audience, the Crown Prince’s initial reaction was to devise an excuse to decline.

For some inexplicable reason, the Crown Prince felt a slight reluctance to meet Shao Yunduan alone. The awkwardness hung in the air, leaving him uncertain about what to say.

After a moment’s contemplation, he instructed someone to bring Shao Yunduan in. It wouldn’t

be prudent to avoid the meeting.

What if Shao Yunduan was overanalyzing the situation? That was something the Crown Prince wanted to avoid.

The Crown Prince, known for prioritizing others, usually chose to sacrifice himself in conflicts. However, this magnanimity often went unappreciated, making it slightly inappropriate in certain situations.

As they exchanged greetings, the initial awkwardness in the Crown Prince’s heart began to fade.

Observing Shao Yunduan, the Crown Prince had much to express.

Ultimately, he sighed and said, “Officer Shao, you didn’t have to confront Fourth Brother like that yesterday. Fourth Brother has always been hot-tempered. If he bears a grudge because of this, wouldn’t he…”

“Thank you for your concern, Crown Prince.” Shao Yunduan calmly cupped his hands. “Actually, it doesn’t matter. After all, I am afraid that the Fourth Prince doesn’t have any good feelings towards me!”

Shao Yunduan acknowledged, but inwardly, he marveled at the Crown Prince’s apparent belief that the uncle and nephew had genuinely taken their own lives. Was the Crown Prince truly so uncomplicated? The revelation left Shao Yunduan astounded.
