Chapter 627: Helpless
Zhou Shangyun, in his hands, had only one Communication Crystal Stone. Moreover, this Communication Crystal Stone did not belong to him, but to the Holy Master of the Holy City.
Other Commanderies mostly also had just one Communication Crystal Stone.
"Jing Yan, don’t worry, the message has already been sent to the Holy City, and I believe there will be a response soon. If the Holy Master intervenes, even if the Gai Family is furious, they can’t completely disregard the Holy Master’s will," Zhou Shangyun reassured Jing Yan.
"Yes, I understand," Jing Yan replied.
Holy City, Holy Palace!
Chang Huan, the Grand Steward of the Holy Palace, hurried to the Holy Hall to meet with the Holy Master.
"Chang Huan, why come to see me in the middle of the night?" the middle-aged man, dressed in flowing cloud robes and wearing a golden crown, asked with a smile. He didn’t seem very old.
"Holy Master, I have just received a message from Zhou Shangyun, the Prince of Lanqu County."
"There has been some unpleasantness in Lanqu County," Chang Huan said, raising his head slightly with a solemn expression.
Chang Huan was the supervisor of the Holy Palace, mainly responsible for intelligence work.
For Princes like Zhou Shangyun who wanted to convey information to the Holy Master, the messages were generally first passed to Chang Huan, who would then relay them.
"Oh? What happened in Lanqu County?" Seeing Chang Huan’s grave expression, the Holy Master also sobered up and asked.
