Chapter 907: Chapter 474: Studying Behind Closed Doors_1
Harriet went to work and the Fifth Prince still couldn’t show himself in public, so he stayed in Harriet’s residence. The Fifth Prince’s heart felt quite heavy. Was he really going to employ the "strategies for emperors" as Harriet said?
From his first encounter with Owen Bertram to the present, one scene after another flashed before his eyes. The corner of the Fifth Prince’s mouth revealed a faint smile. The two of them were indeed "birds of a feather"!
"Unfortunately, throughout history, is there really any pure friendship between monarchs and their vassals?" The Fifth Prince sighed helplessly. Suddenly, he thought that Owen Bertram, that fellow, probably figured that out long ago, and he himself was only realizing it now.
...
Owen Bertram cursed in the courtyard for a long while, yelling "Your Highness Five is misleading me!" It scared Andrew Oamond away. This kind of talk wasn’t something a common cultivator like him with only one head could listen to!
In the end, it was Verna who appeased the seemingly angry Master Owen.
Owen Bertram went back to his room and took out the Communication Talisman, but the Fifth Prince didn’t respond. Owen Bertram’s face became serious, it seems that the situation is not simple...
He immediately contacted David, who was still at the Summit Metropolitan Office and found out that the Fifth Prince had indeed returned to the capital.
Master Owen sat down and suddenly revealed a strange smile.
...
An event often triggers multiple chain reactions. The North Ice Saintess’s selection of a husband, Owen Bertram’s defeat of the four princes, and the chain reactions caused by such major events were tantamount to an earthquake.
Even before the day was over, rumors were swirling in the capital. Lord Dunn was bound to be implicated and lose his position. The four princes with their deep-rooted power were furious, and they would surely retaliate madly.
With Abner Lane present, Master Dunn’s life would not be in danger, but the future Inner Cabinet would belong to Page Malcolm!
Master Dunn soon experienced the "cold reality of the world." The few reform policies that were originally proceeding smoothly suddenly encountered setbacks, and the various government offices began to stall on their implementation for various reasons!
Within the government offices, everyone was talking about how Master Dunn’s days were numbered.
These past few days, Andrew Oamond had encountered many cold glances when he was dealing with official affairs. Unable to bear it, he came to Master Owen to complain, "Little clerks in the offices are looking at me with disdain!"
"Lord Dunn is still a member of the Inner Cabinet after all."
"Master Owen, is the situation really so serious this time?"
Master Owen remained calm and unruffled, not worried at all: "Be patient, everything will return to normal in a few days."
Andrew Oamond was puzzled: "Do you know something, Master Owen? Tell me! Master Lane has been unable to hold back and has been angry several times over the past few days."
Owen Bertram smiled: "If I tell you, it won’t work."
Only the two of them knew about the "agreement" between Owen Bertram and the Fifth Prince, so Abner and Leonard weren’t as calm as Master Owen.
Andrew Oamond’s curiosity was like a cat scratching his insides. He naturally believed Master Owen, but the matter was so important that he couldn’t help but be uneasy. Master Owen wouldn’t say anything,
so he hurriedly paced around in the front and backyard. Suddenly, he collided head-on with Wayne Malvin at the second gate who then pushed him aside and rushed in, shouting, "Master, Master, something terrible has happened!"
Andrew Oamond quickly followed. Wayne Malvin found Owen Bertram and said: "Master, just now, Prince Chancellor Ryan himself took action and took the four Crown Princes to the Imperial Library, saying that he would personally teach them and have them concentrate on their studies behind closed doors!"
Andrew Oamond was momentarily stunned. Studying behind closed doors? Wasn’t this a house arrest in disguise? Would they be let out in the future?
Owen Bertram gave Andrew Oamond a faint smile: "See, the situation has been reversed."
The peculiarity of this incident was that it was somewhat like the saying, "When a disease comes, a mountain collapses, and when it goes, it leaves like a thread." Suddenly, the palaces of the four princes "closed their doors in thanks," and the grand cultivators from their mother’s clan quietly withdrew. The high and low-level officials who had hurriedly paid visits to Page Malcolm suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The discussions about Page Malcolm and Lord Dunn also vanished in smoke.
All the changes occurred quietly, and the public knew nothing about it. Everyone, including Page Malcolm, simply wanted to erase the previous "boisterous" scenes quietly...
In addition, Master Owen judged that it was probably Harriet’s manipulation to suppress some public opinions and deal with everything in a low-key manner.
As an experienced official, Master Dunn naturally took all these changes lightly and remained unshakable in his "Dao heart." But for people like Andrew Oamond, it was truly invigorating!
At this point, Andrew Oamond finally understood that on that night, Master Owen suddenly asked him to visit the Royal Palace with him. Although it seemed useless, it already dealt a fatal blow to the four princes in advance!
He secretly lamented: There was too much of a gap between himself and Master Owen. No wonder after following Master Lane for so long, he was still just a cavalry commander, while Master Owen had become a double-ranked Commander in just a few years.
In fact, he hadn’t thought of an essential part yet, but Master Owen didn’t want to explain.
The four princes promised the position of Empress to the Saintess of North Ice—the royal family could not tolerate a foreigner becoming the Empress of Great Wu. However, if a certain prince really came out on top in the competition to win the Saintess’s hand, the other three princes would still be under house arrest. This prince would have proven his abilities, and Harriet would let him off the hook.
The royal family would find a way to deal with the previous promise of the Empress’s position, while this prince could still retain his hope for the throne.
So, in order to achieve a "wipeout" effect, Owen Bertram himself was still a key factor, as he had to win the quota.
