Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The victory news arrived a couple of days earlier, and the Saint Divine Land was taking the lead from the Jiayu Pass, and they could even go further and take over one town in the North Qi Land… they even held a banquet in the court and at the Yao Family, which was held earlier than usual.
However, while the whole capital was cheering, they said that Jiayu Pass was lost?
They arranged 50,000 people to defend Jiayu Pass, and they even lost it?
“What did General Liu do?!” The King shouted furiously. He really wished to punish General Liu but the news came that General Liu was badly injured.
The King was furious.
!!
After a long while, he said, “50,000 people and General Liu lost Jiayu Pass? When he gets back, General Liu will be fired and replaced!”
“…”
“Also, send the letter to the Crown Prince and get him home. Feng County will be lost soon.”
“Okay!”
Having made the arrangements, the King looked really irritated. He had already been prepared to take down a town in North Qi, but now this news arrived and struck him deep in his heart.
Jiayu Pass was at their border, and was what helped keep the Saint Divine Land safe.
Feng County was just a small county close to the border without any forces of defense. If the North Qi continued with the invasion, it would be very easy to have it taken over. They were at a huge risk.
The Crown Prince would get killed if they were not careful enough.
Ling was his favorite son, and after he passed away, he was going to pass the throne to him so he had to be alright.
He felt very distressed.
Hearing this, De Fu hesitated if he should pass on the message.
Seeing how De Fu hesitated, the King said straightforwardly, “Just say it. You have worked for me for so long, don’t you understand what you ought to do?”
De Fu came in.
He said with a small voice, “Young Master Gu is here asking for you. I just saw you distressed and did not dare to disturb you. After all, country affairs matter more.”
The King felt slightly less annoyed.
De Fu had many problems, but he was considering it for his sake. He was worried about him all the time.
So he dropped his anger towards him.
“Just bring him in.” The King looked tired but still needed to see him.
Well…
Young Master Gu’s biggest interest for him was the Crown Prince Consort, namely the Phoenix Girl. The Saint Divine Land was suffering from a disaster, and Destiny Monk was out of seclusion, so the Saint Divine Land still needed to depend on the Crown Prince Consort. Therefore, he needed to take care of the Gu Family rather than hold grudges against them in small affairs. He needed to look good after all.
De Fu soon brought the man in.
Gu Yunhe was very wild in the capital, but he was very respectful in front of the King, who was still on the throne.
The Crown Prince Consort was the only supporter of the Gu Family, so he was not that strong in front of the King.
“What are you here for?” the King asked straightforwardly, when he saw Gu Yunhe.
