Chapter 155: A Midnight Conversation in the Palace
The Emperor asked, “The realm is ultimately our Great Yan’s domain, and Changjing is also our Great Yan’s capital. Even gods should not cause chaos in Changjing. Tomorrow, it’s certain that the ministers in court will discuss this matter. Grand Commander Chang was an elder statesman and a royal relative of the former dynasty. State Preceptor, what do you think…?”
The Emperor finally turned to look at the State Preceptor beside him. “What should I do?”
“I believe that by tomorrow morning, the Martial Guards will have uncovered the full details of the incident.”
“And what about the odd alchemist from the jianghu…?”
“I have already sent someone to find him.”
“What is your view on this matter?”
“I have some reflections,” the State Preceptor said.
“What reflections?”
“It is natural for people to fear death, but it is both ridiculous and lamentable that a dignified Grand Commander would be manipulated by a jianghu oddity to the point of losing his life without realizing it.”
