Lord Shao, renowned for his expertise in the five sutras, deliberately maintained a low profile, never alluding to his connection with Shao Yunduan. Few were aware that he was Shao Yunduan's cousin.
He made no mention of his hometown, Shaoding Village in Yuzhang Heshan County, opting instead to reference Yuzhang alone. It appeared he wished to sever all ties with Shao Yunduan.
Furthermore, it seemed he was cultivating closer ties with the Fourth Prince's circle…
Had it not been for the letter from Liu Changming and Song Guangyao, Shao Yunduan might have dismissed it all as a jest.
While Shao Yunduan had cautioned Zhao Shu against prying too deeply in the capital, it didn't mean he was indifferent to its affairs.
Zhao Shu, despite his wealth, was not adept at scheming. His conspicuous activity in the capital could draw unwanted attention and trouble.
