He was lucky this time, but what about next time?
What if the people who tried to set him up were even more powerful? What should he do by that time?
He did not dare to take the risk.
So the safest way was to resign!
When he quit the governmental office, no one would be jealous of him or set him up any more, because it was meaningless to set him up any more.
That was a huge shock!
That caused a great sensation in the court.
Crown Prince was very annoyed.
Emperor Xuan was very annoyed too.
The Crown Prince had always been known for his restrained nature and his generosity towards others, making it difficult for him to change his personality.
On the other hand, Emperor Xuan was visibly annoyed by the situation and could not tolerate it. As a result, he firmly opposed Shao Yunduan's resignation.
