The following day, Su Bin received the latest update: the officials and soldiers dispatched by the Imperial Court had already arrived at the provincial capital. They were likely preparing to depart for the Flying Cloud Tribe after a brief rest.
The journey from the provincial capital to the Flying Cloud Tribe would take approximately a day. In this first face-off, the outcome of the battle between the Crown Prince and the Third Prince would be decided within the span of a day.
Su Bin maintained his composure, heading to the prefectural school to continue his studies, diligently preparing for the upcoming capital examination next spring. His aspiration was to become an official, preferably a high-ranking one.
He recognized that holding a prominent position would enable him to execute his plan to oust the Crown Prince effectively. Moreover, it would afford him better means to protect his beloved wife.
