Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 2185: Going Too FarEditor: Henyee Translations

Qiao Xuan did not hold back at all in the letter. She accused Sun Pu of framing Shao Yunduan first, and then attacking the city with the army. She was rude and domineering, questioning whether the Sun family had devised another scheme this time. What if it was their plan to lure them to Wuchang City and then frame them again? Where would they go to complain about the injustice?

Therefore, even if the imperial envoy came to Huaixi province with an imperial edict, they would not dare to trust it easily.

Lord Yang kept saying that Sun Pu had misheard and misunderstood, but the bad consequences were all there.

If he was truly sincere, why didn’t he personally explain and apologize?

He didn’t even say a single word of apology. It was obvious that he didn’t really mean to apologize for the misunderstanding.

Therefore, no matter what, she and her husband did not dare to go to Wuchang City. After all, their lives were more important! Please understand...

The second prince’s fingers could not help but tremble as he read the letter. His tightly gripped fingers turned pale, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

He even forgot that Shao Yunduan had not written the letter himself; it was his wife.

There were only four words in his heart: ”You’re going too far!”

But these words were directed not at Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, but at the Sun family.

Sun Pu had taken the initiative to force everyone to follow his orders and let him mobilize his troops. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to severely punish them for mobilizing so many rations, horses, and carriages; he simply couldn’t.

He had relied on the Sun family to build his empire. Even the current protection of Wuchang City, the fight for power with his Fourth Brother, and the generals nurtured by the Sun family—all these factors meant he couldn’t ignore the Sun family.

When he was still a prince, the Sun family was his loyal supporter. He felt lucky then, but now that he had ascended the throne, the Sun family’s authority was increasing day by day. From his uncle to everyone in the Sun family, they were becoming more and more arrogant. It wasn’t the first time they had angered him, and he was already afraid.

But what could he do? He could never fall out with the Sun family.

He had to treat the Sun family as well as ever.

The reason he wanted to recruit Shao Yunduan was to have someone to counterbalance the Sun family.

He had a feeling that Shao Yunduan would dare to stand up to the Sun family!

But Shao Yunduan had turned him down.

It wasn’t just a rejection. Shao Yunduan was very dissatisfied with the Sun family and did not trust them. He was afraid of their revenge and was unwilling to come.

Wasn’t this infuriating?

The second prince vented his anger silently. When his rage gradually subsided, he sighed and looked down at the letter in his hand. He tore it into pieces and threw it away.

What was the use of being angry? He still had to rely on the Sun family, at least for now.

However, he knew he had to be more careful and gradually nurture some of his own people in the military.

As soon as Lord Yang and Prefect Liu left the palace, they were summoned by the Sun family.

The Sun family naturally wanted to know what had happened in Huaixi province.

Facing the Sun family, Prefect Liu became a chatterbox, incessantly complaining about Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan.

Lord Yang vaguely felt this was not a good idea. He tried to stop Prefect Liu several times, but to no avail.

When the Sun family heard Prefect Liu’s complaints, they were all furious, especially Sun Pu. He sneered and scolded, ”I knew that Shao was not a good person! How could there be such a coincidence? He deliberately refused to see him! Heh, he doesn’t care about the Emperor at all!”
