Defeating Qian Jiyun was unrealistic. They would be doomed if Qian Jiyun targeted them instead.

“Your Majesty, didn’t you send Prince De to the southern border previously? Was there any update from Prince De?” a minister asked.

The old Emperor was speechless.

Could he not bring this up? His head hurt even more at the mention of Prince De.

Did he send his son to reclaim the army at the southern border? Sending his son was obviously a form of compensation!

Once Prince De entered the southern border, he was like a clay ox entering the sea. There were no updates from him at all. The old Emperor might as well have sent his loyal general back then.

“I’m afraid there won’t be any news from the southern border so soon. Qian Jiyun has been deployed there for many years. It won’t be easy to take him down in a short time.”

Before the old Emperor could say anything, someone found an excuse for him.

He had advised the Emperor not to send Prince De to the southern border. However, the Emperor refused to listen and insisted on hitting the southern wall to realize his mistake.

However, even if he knew the Emperor was in the wrong, how could he force the Emperor to admit his mistake?

“Your Majesty, since Qian Jiyun has returned, why don’t we make sure he can’t leave the capital again? Do you think that’s okay?” the minister suggested as he looked up at the old Emperor seriously.

“How can that be okay?”

His words immediately attracted objections from the others.

Killing Qian Jiyun was a small matter, but the imperial court would be in chaos if the savages at the southern border rebelled.

They could not allow internal conflict to break out in the country because of Qian Jiyun.

“Your Majesty, since we haven’t subdued the 18 Stockaded Villages, I suggest we refrain from touching Prince Zhan Yun for the time being. If we anger him and he wants to rebel—”

Upon hearing that, the old Emperor’s expression darkened.

He had no intention of killing Qian Jiyun immediately. However, Qian Jiyun could rebel at any time if he wanted to. He really could not let such a scourge live.

He exhaled heavily and looked at the ministers with a dark expression.

“Qian Jiyun cannot stay any longer. He’ll definitely cause a huge problem if he does.” Although he said that, Qian Jivun was already a hil?e problem for him.

He would rather Qian Jiyun die and cause a huge commotion at the southern border. It would only result in a few turbulent years at the border, rather than Qian Jiyun overthrowing their Yan family.

“Tell me, is there any way to kill Qian Jiyun quietly?” he asked.

“Well…” The ministers looked at each other.

They were all the old Emperor’s trusted aides and were not to be underestimated. However, none dared to rush to speak out in this matter involving Qian Jiyun.

They had tried killing Qian Jiyun, but when had they ever succeeded? “Your Majesty, Qian Jiyun is very skilled and is in the capital. It will be difficult to kill him.” They looked at the emperor with troubled expressions.

“So you mean I can’t kill someone I want to?” the old Emperor narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.

In the past, he would put up a front in front of his trusted ministers. But he had grown even more afraid of Qian Jiyun and could not be bothered to pretend
