Chapter 672: Yuwen Feng's Analysis — Three Months Later!

"In short, the Clan Leader acts with a low profile and has his own plans; everything is within controllable bounds. We absolutely must not disrupt his scheme by stirring up trouble at this moment!"

"Your idea is certainly not bad, but if we rashly hand over Great Qin, it will only draw the gaze of every faction within Great Qin's borders toward Cangwu Mountain. As time ferments, the other eight nations, and even the Moon Splendor Imperial Dynasty, will cast their eyes this way, thereby giving rise to many unforeseen complications."

"When that time comes, how will the Clan Leader still be able to cultivate in peace? Your approach undoubtedly runs counter to his thoughts, and may even earn his displeasure........"

Hearing Yuwen Feng's analysis,

Yuwen Cheng and Zhang Long were both startled at once.

They had just been immersed in delight, and had not thought this point through at all.

Now, after Yuwen Feng's reminder, they finally awoke to the fact that they had nearly done a good deed that turned out badly.

Botching the matter would be a small thing, but earning Clan Leader Jiang's displeasure — that would be a catastrophe of the highest order!

Thinking of this, a deep sense of dread welled up unbidden in both their hearts!

Then, Yuwen Cheng forcibly suppressed the unease within: "Father, in your view, what should we do now?"

Yuwen Feng waved his hand: "You need only return to the royal capital, stabilize the situation in Great Qin on the Clan Leader's behalf, and keep the imperial court running."

"I hear the Cangwu Merchant Guild is constantly expanding. You may first make use of the convenience of your positions to look after it well, and not let those blind factions affect the guild's development........."

"Beyond this, you may also invoke the National Preceptor's token, in my name, to have the governors of the thirty-six prefectures provide convenience to the Jiang clan members of Cangwu who are traveling abroad."

"These are what you should be doing now. You need only secretly manage Great Qin on the Clan Leader's behalf and achieve a smooth transition — you must not drag the Cangwu Jiang clan into the water and draw too many unnecessary gazes!"

"If the Clan Leader should need Great Qin and issues the order, then at that time, you need no longer lie in wait — simply present an intact Great Qin free of internal strife, and it will not be too late."

"And you too will receive the Clan Leader's commendation, with a bright future ahead of you......."

As Yuwen Feng spoke on at length,

Yuwen Cheng's heart gave a jolt, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Father, I understand!"

"Once I return, I shall properly manage Great Qin, and will absolutely not leave the Clan Leader with a riddled, broken mess!"

Yuwen Feng smiled: "The boy is teachable."

Having spoken, he suddenly turned around and returned to the corner: "Now, I still need to recuperate from my injuries. You should head back as soon as possible......."

Yuwen Cheng and Zhang Long cupped their hands together in unison and replied: "As you command!"
