894 Zhao Yu flees

But if they were to investigate Zhao Yu as the mastermind behind the scheme right now, the Empire would face the risk of a civil war.

Zhao Yu had significant connections in the Southern Region, and he also controlled Fengjiang, a crucial economic town in the central part. Together, his power was not much weaker than Zhao Kai's. If one were to also consider the support from the Great Tang behind the scenes, Zhao Yu even had a slight advantage.

Therefore, what Zhao Kai had been considering was to handle this matter ambiguously— as long as everyone didn't adamantly pin their troubles on Zhao Yu, the situation would be most favorable for Zhao Kai.

With such a significant incident happening in the Imperial Capital and Zhao Yu somewhat suspect, Zhao Kai could also push down Zhao Yu's attempt to go to Fengjiang... Thinking of this, Zhao Kai felt he had perhaps found the most advantageous solution.
