章 487: Reminder

Upon learning about the Old Marquis's change of heart, the Emperor was incensed. He perceived the Crown Prince's increasing disregard for him as his father.

The Crown Prince, aware of the backing from both the Public House and the Empress Dowager, had grown increasingly audacious in his actions. As the Emperor, he found himself bound by the Public House and the Empress Dowager, having no choice but to confront the Public House.

After some contemplation, the Emperor concluded that he should retract Su Bin's transfer order. This would provide him the opportunity to ascertain whether Su Bin was indeed the author of the anonymous letter, understand Su Bin's background, and evaluate his potential usefulness.

However, the Emperor had already made a public announcement regarding Su Bin's mistakes and the plan to transfer him to Shanglin Prefecture. To backtrack on his decision, he needed to provide Su Bin with an honorable exit.
