Back to the General's Mansion
She saw that the atmosphere of the servants in the mansion was not quite right.
Even the little servant girl who was sweeping the floor hurriedly took the broom and retreated in a fluster after she finished her task.
Shuang Xi followed behind Shen Yueji and seemed to notice something. She grabbed the collar of a servant girl who was about to slip away. "Xiao Xia, tell me, what happened? Why is the General's Mansion so quiet today? "
It was so quiet that there was no sense of humanity. The General's Mansion had been lively for so many years, but it was rare to see such a calm scene today.
The servant girl called Xiao Xia trembled as she raised her head to look at Shen Yueji. "The Emperor's trusted aide has sent a message. Tomorrow, the Emperor will be returning to the capital. He asked Miss to prepare a package and leave for the palace tomorrow."
So that was it.
Shen Yueji understood more. The General's Mansion was in a gloomy atmosphere today. It was mostly because she was going back to the capital.
She nodded and said, "There's nothing for you to do here. You can leave."
After hearing this news, Shuang Xi's face was also gloomy. "Miss, how long do you think we've been back? The days in the palace feel like years. It's been a few days since we've been back, but this servant still feels like only a short while has passed."
"Hey, Miss, where are you going?"
Shuang Xi was complaining about this servant. Seeing that Shen Yueji had gone somewhere else, she hurriedly chased after her.
Walking all the way to the study, she saw that the three people she wanted to see were there.
Shen He's resolute face was full of seriousness. Even Shen Yuechi's handsome face, which had never been serious, was tense at this moment.
Her eyes swept over the faces of the three people and saw their expressions. Her sharp eyes saw that there was an opened letter on the table. Thinking of the servant girl's words, Shen Yueji stepped forward and took the letter in her hand.
The handwriting was strong and clear. She recognized at a glance that it was Feng Jiuqing's handwriting.
"There's a war in the South City?"
She narrowed her eyes and glanced over the few short lines. If the content in front was written by Feng Jiuqing to her, then the latter part was written about the South City.
The South City was very close to Nan Yue. Out of the four great countries, one had fallen, leaving only three. Nan Yue was one of them.
The Southern Peak Emperor was cruel and tyrannical. Rumors about him were known by all the countries.
He ascended to the throne at the age of twelve, and now he already had nine thoughts. Tarnishing his aunt, insulting his sister-in-law, coveting his aunt …
Unbearable to look at.
Because of this kind of emperor, even the people of Nan Yue became like him. They bullied their sisters-in-law and married their younger sisters. The entire country of Nan Yue was in chaos.
Logically speaking, such a Southern Mountain should have been the target of a united crusade by all the countries, but the Emperor of Southern Mountain wasn't jealous. Although he was obsessed with women, he was also a wise and vicious ruler. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to maintain one of the Three Great Empires for so many years, even though he had done so many bad things over the years, even bringing shame to the people of Southern Mountain, yet he was still able to maintain the position of one of the Three Great Empires.
As for the war in South City …
This was the territory between Nan Yue and the Feng Kingdom. Half of the Feng Kingdom was Nan Yue's.
