Chapter 1732: Lord Is Impulsive Editor: Henyee Translations

Shao Yunduan found himself secretly wishing that Deputy Prefect Guan could extend his recuperation for another year and a half.

However, Deputy Prefect Guan faced a dilemma.

Shao Yunduan’s men had slain a significant number of mountain bandits, instilling fear in Deputy Prefect Guan.

The looming threat of retaliation left him hesitating, even as he neared recovery.

Despite his ongoing recovery, Deputy Prefect Guan believed it was crucial to issue a stern warning to the audacious Lord Prefect, regardless of his incomplete recuperation.

Summoning his servants, Deputy Prefect Guan, with a frail appearance, made his way to Shao Yunduan in the east yard.

“Lord, those bandits are impulsive individuals.

Slaughtering so many at once might provoke a reckless retaliation!

Impulsive as they are, they won’t care about the consequences!

If they infiltrate the city and wreak havoc, causing severe repercussions, wouldn’t it be! wouldn’t it be!”

“Lord, your actions this time were indeed impulsive!”

Shao Yunduan had just finished work and returned to the east yard for a conversation with Qiao Xuan over strawberries.

His wife, pregnant and craving strawberries, was in a cheerful mood.

Capitalizing on her good mood, he intended to enjoy some benefits.

Just as they were indulging in a moment together, Deputy Prefect Guan’s arrival forced Shao Yunduan to attend to him in the study.

Observing Deputy Prefect Guan feigning injury, Shao Yunduan could no longer tolerate it.

Attempting to teach him a lesson, Shao Yunduan hinted at publicly punishing Sun Bai and Sun Qian to appease the bandits’ anger.

“Deputy Prefect Guan, are you suggesting that Sun Bai and Sun Qian should let the bandits burn the rice seeds and harm people?

This way, the bandits won’t descend the mountain for revenge, and the government can proceed without worry?”

Deputy Prefect Guan indeed harbored such thoughts, but he dared not voice them.

Furthermore, he recognized that once the rice seeds were set ablaze, the quantity – tens of thousands of kilograms – posed a formidable challenge for transportation from other locations.

Not only did the issue extend to quantity, but it also involved substantial concerns regarding time and financial resources.

To be blunt, there was no right course of action in this predicament.

Yet, wasn’t it Lord Shao who had stirred up this turmoil?

If only his initial stance had been more accommodating, wouldn’t this crisis have been averted?

However, Deputy Prefect Guan hesitated to express this sentiment, burdened with grievances.

He believed that his actions were for the greater good of Anze Province, the state government, and its citizens.

Nevertheless, the Lord of the Prefect not only failed to grasp or appreciate his intentions but also exhibited aggression.

In Deputy Prefect Guan’s view, if he hadn’t intervened, Anze Province would have remained unscathed.

The moment he arrived, the situation escalated dramatically, resulting in numerous casualties.

The toll in Tiger Head Tribe alone was significant, and they would undoubtedly seek retribution.

These bandits were interconnected.

The Min Family Tribe and Liuhe Fort might exploit the chaos, and by offending the three major clans, he had simultaneously antagonized all family clans in Anze Province.

In such a predicament, who would come to his aid?

Did he genuinely believe that he could resolve the bandit issue in Anze Prefecture merely because he had a few martial artists with decent skills?

Such a notion was gravely mistaken!

If it were indeed that straightforward, the Imperial Court would have dispatched officials long ago to address the matter.

They couldn’t afford to turn a blind eye to such a significant issue.
