Chapter 378 The Old Emperor's Ultimate Goal
This battle on the southern front was a great victory. Soon after, the good news was reported back to the capital, with some people happy and some sad.

It is an honor for us as ministers to be able to help His Majesty solve his problems."When the two walked into the bedroom, the bloodstain on the floor had been wiped away, and everything in the room was as it was before, as if nothing had happened.At that time, Xiao Yan was pacing back and forth in the room.
