Chapter 213: Emperor Xuanwu's Decision
In his letter, Dongfang Yao recounted the entire situation in detail. He strongly recommended that Emperor Xuanwu punish that little b*stard, Dongfang Jianming, severely.
Lastly, he highlighted that Yun Tianwei had assigned a highly-skilled bodyguard named Ye Zi to protect Ye Jiuge. He implored Emperor Xuanwu to recruit this adept master at any cost.
Meanwhile, at Zhengqing Palace in the Lei Kingdom’s capital, Emperor Xuanwu had finished reading Dongfang Yao’s letter. He sat motionlessly on his imperial throne with an exceptionally dark expression.
The Head Eunuch, Li Fude, stood by his side and waited on him. Although Li Fude’s heart raced, he did not breathe too heavily.
Ever since Gong Honglei had escorted the Crown Prince back to the Capital and appealed to Emperor Xuanwu to reward the Gong Clan, a smile had not appeared on the Emperor’s face.
Suddenly, a clamor came from outside. It sounded like people were arguing loudly.
Li Fude panicked. He wished that he could walk outside and beat the sentries and eunuchs guarding the palace entrance to death.
They should not allow this kind of problematic incident to occur now; it was terrible timing.
“Go and see what is happening outside,” Emperor Xuanwu instructed with his eyes closed.
