Capítulo 1382: No Loss

Shao Yunduan surveyed the crowd and noticed several unfamiliar faces brimming with curiosity, seemingly reveling in the spectacle. They chatted animatedly with those around them, suggesting this was a carefully orchestrated performance.

These unfamiliar faces, enthusiastically fanning the flames and spreading gossip, were likely individuals sent to instigate and sow discord. Shao Yunduan understood the situation all too well. The Crown Prince had recently faced unjust accusations before the New Year, and the Fourth Prince was still riding high in popularity. Regardless of his personal inclinations, he wouldn't dare to confront the Crown Prince head-on.

Even if he was unaware of Shao Yunduan's involvement in the matter, Shao Yunduan had no familial ties within this area, and a prior rift had existed between them. It was sufficient for the Fourth Prince to vent his frustrations on Shao Yunduan.
