Zhao Yi nodded. "I know. He is the Heir of the Marquis of Wuning."
Zhao Yi had already arrived by the time Shen Yiqian stepped out, and he had heard clearly when Peng Huaxuan announced his status. The Marquis of Wuning was the maternal kin of the Ninth Prince. Zhao Yi had met Peng Huaxuan’s younger brother, Peng Huayu, in the past. The two brothers were polar opposites: Peng Huaxuan was arrogant and ostentatious, while Peng Huayu was sinister, cunning, and deeply calculating. Of course, this likely had to do with their respective positions—Peng Huaxuan was the legitimate son and heir, while Peng Huayu was born of a concubine. In a feudal society dictated by birth order and status, the gap between them was vast.
Shen Yiqian’s brow furrowed. "Then is the Prince aware that His Majesty has issued a decree replacing the Duke of Dingguo, Pei Yuzong, with the Marquis of Wuning, Peng Bo, as the new commander of the Wuwei Army?"
