The Emperor inquired about Yang Heshu's opinion.
Yang Heshu promptly requested to stay in Xiazhou, expressing that he didn't bring his family to the capital because he was worried about the affairs in Xiazhou.
The Emperor sighed, instructed Yang Heshu to leave the palace, and in the evening issued a decree reprimanding Yang Heshu for insubordination and detaining his superior, penalizing him three months' salary.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Personnel was preparing documents for his promotion to Prefect of Xiazhou.
This matter was no secret; even the Crown Princess's place had attendants lightheartedly talking about it, "This is an apparent demotion but real promotion. People outside are saying the Yang Family is rising again."
The Crown Princess smiled and waved the attendants away, speaking to the three of Manbao, "It's not that simple. I heard from the Crown Prince that Xiazhou's situation isn't good now."
Changyu looked worried, "Then why is Lord Yang still going?"
