Xia Xiaoman attended the national meeting as a listener.
After listening, she appeared deeply worried.
Although Yi Lin could roughly guess the reason for her distress from Xia Xiaoman's reaction, he still asked Nie Hongxie for a clearer picture.
Nie Hongxie, efficient as ever, had been eavesdropping and succinctly relayed the meeting's content to the young master.
"I see."
In short, it's because of the war.
Currently, within the Da Qian Dynasty, the four vassal kings have raised armies in four directions, advancing toward Qingdu.
And now the Da Qian Dynasty is like a defenseless lamb, surrounded by the four vassal kings, being pushed heavily and perilously.
Today's morning court discussed the eastern front.
The King of the East, although stationed at the rear, had pushed the frontline to within five hundred miles of Lumen Pass.
Lumen Pass is a strategically dangerous city.
