Qian Jiyun glanced at the thick stack of evidence on the old Emperor’s desk and reminded him.

Why are you asking me? The evidence is already on the table. You can just pick it up and see for yourself.

Even if you can’t finish reading everything because there are too many, you can still find out what Prince Lei Ting did if you read a couple.

The old Emperor’s throat tightened. He opened his mouth but did not know what to say.

He had known about Prince Lei Ting’s attempt to seize power and join forces with other countries. But so what? As long as Prince Lei Ting and Qian Jiyun were still at the border, they would not be able to do anything big.

!!
This was the art of trade-offs.

“Let me take a look first.”

He reached out and casually pulled out a piece of evidence.

There was evidence against Prince Lei Ting, so the Emperor could not let him off easily. As for Prince De…

That child was really useless. He was even timider than a rat.

Even with his father, the Emperor, backing him, he still did not dare go to the southern border, looking as if he would be tortured to death by Qian Jiyun’s subordinates if he went.

The Emperor really wanted to reprimand him, but there was nothing he could do about him.

He was his youngest son and the son of the concubine he doted on the most.

“Jiyun, do you have any objections to me sending Prince De to the southern border?” he asked as he glanced at Qian Jiyun from the corner of his eye.

Upon hearing that, Qian Jiyun cupped his fists at the old Emperor and bowed respectfully.

“The entire world belongs to you, so I have no objections, Your Majesty. I will comply even if you ask me to hand over the control of the southern border military camp.”

His words were respectful, but they successfully made the old Emperor’s expression darken.

Of course, the Emperor wanted control over the southern military camp! But he could not ask for it. The four borders of the Daqing Kingdom were once the most chaotic.

It was not easy for the 18 Stockaded Villages and Qian Jiyun to suppress the chaos on each side. He would only invite war if he caused trouble.

An Emperor had to be particular about checks and balances, but he would not bring his country into conflict to check and balance anyone.

However, he was worried that Qian Jiyun would continue to control the southern border. Hence, he would send his men to stir up trouble occasionally.

This was also to tell Qian Jiyun that he had been keeping an eye on the border.

“That’s way too serious, Jiyun. Prince De has an unstable disposition. I had no choice but to send him to the military camp to train.”

He put down the things in his hand, picked up another book, and read it slowly.

“Your Majesty is wise.”

What could Qian Jiyun say? It was not up to him to decide.

He could only decide how to “coax” Prince De after he went to the border.

“Mhm,” the Emperor replied softly.

“You’ve been at the border for long enough. Don’t be in a hurry to leave the capital this time. Stay here for a while longer. I heard you brought a lady back?” he probed.

He did not think Qian Jiyun would be so lucky to find his former wife.

He thought he must have met a lady outside and brought her back. Men were all the same. Who said the Imperial family was the most heartless?

Qian Jiyun claimed to be in love, but so what?
