Qun Xuan sat down beside him, "A single eagle is nothing to fear, the pressing matter is to consider why there was a leak regarding the Crown Prince’s side. The Crown Prince wouldn’t want you to fail, so it couldn’t have been his own doing. It’s either someone under him being careless or acting with intent, and if it’s the latter, you and the Crown Prince must be vigilant."
Han Ye clenched his fist, "There is a traitor among the Crown Prince’s people!"
Qun Xuan said, "That’s a very likely possibility, you’d best have the Crown Prince investigate those close to him."
Han Ye spoke in a low voice, "I understand, thank you, Master. Uncle is gone, you will have to work harder from now on."
Qun Xuan said, "I have no hardship, the hardship is on your Han Family. This incident won’t be over just because Han Yong admitted his guilt and was executed. Your third uncle has been dismissed from his post, and the new iron mine that your family head just took over has also been forcibly handed over. I heard that both the Nangong and Mu Families are eyeing the Hei Fengqi; you’d better be careful."
Han Ye laughed at himself, "Ridiculous, just yesterday the Han Family was debating how to divide the Nangong Family’s military power, and today the Han Family’s Hei Fengqi has become the fish on the chopping block."
Qun Xuan glanced at him, "Things haven’t reached that bad a point yet, but if you make another mistake, it could be tough to say."
...
Imperial Palace.
The monarch finally learned of his baldness after severely reprimanding the head of the Han Family and dealing with the second son of the Han Family.
Everyone had seen it, but nobody dared to speak out.
After all, aside from the coach driver and Zhang Dequan, they didn’t know how the monarch went bald. Isn’t this a mad king? When he went mad, even his own hair was not spared, what else is there to find strange?
It was because the Little Princess was going to school, came to ask her uncle to send her off, and then discovered that her uncle had turned into a monk.
She widened her innocent almond eyes, her little mouth agape for ages, "Uncle, are you becoming a monk?"
The monarch was stunned, he said no, and the Little Princess, "Then why your hair—"
The monarch touched his head and completely freaked out!
The monarch’s hair wasn’t truly bald like a monk’s; there were still a few strands.
Three strands, to be exact, and not a strand more.
The monarch was livid with rage!
Thinking about the series of events that evening, he couldn’t believe that Shangguan Yun hadn’t intentionally lured him out.
The Han Family deserves to die, and Shangguan Yun, this disastrous scoundrel, cannot be let off lightly!
The monarch ordered the Little Princess to be taken away, drew the Treasure Sword from the rack, and with furious eyes declared, "Where is Shangguan Yun? I want to kill her!"
