“Huff!”

The old emperor exhaled heavily.

He knew that the people sent to the southern border wouldn’t have any news so soon, but he couldn’t wait any longer.

With the current situation, he had already written the edict, and the whole capital was under the control of the Third Prince. If he kept waiting like this, his throne would be at risk.

The only course of action left to him was to trust that the southern border hadn’t fallen into Qian Jiyun’s control and that Qian Jiyun had only claimed so to threaten him.

Thus, he was desperate to hear news from the southern border, feeling that every moment seemed as long as an entire year.

His current state of mind couldn’t be described by the phrase ‘each day feels like a year.’

“Send someone else, send people to both the southern and Western Borders, we must have the military power firmly in my hands. Send General Qi there, Qian Jiyun wants the military strength from there, but I will not give it to him!”

He ordered.

The eunuch:

He really wanted to remind the emperor that if he could think of it, wouldn’t the Third Prince and Prince Zhanyun have thought of it already?

Perhaps the Suxi Army no longer looked at the military token or heeded the emperor’s commands anymore?

But he didn’t have the guts to say that to the old emperor. It wasn’t as if he didn’t want to live anymore. Although the emperor was closely watched at every turn, taking the life of a mere eunuch like him would only take a single word.

“Yes, Your Majesty, this servant will go and find General Qi right away.”

He could pass on that message; whether General Qi stood with the old emperor or sided with the Third Prince was outside his control.

“What? Looking for me?”

General Qi, whom the old emperor had mentioned, was currently playing chess with Xia Huafeng at the Xia family’s residence.

Upon hearing the news from the palace, a black piece slipped from his hand and dropped onto the chessboard. Looking closely, his face darkened instantly because his black piece had just fallen into a trap created by Xia Huafeng’s encircling white stones.

“Tsk, this is really bad luck!”

It wasn’t just bad luck; a perfectly fine game where he had the upper hand was now ruined for no reason.

And what on earth was the old emperor thinking? Did he not know that the Qee Family had long stopped involving themselves in court affairs? It was the old emperor himself who had decreed that his father should enjoy his remaining years in peace.

As for him, under the notorious label of a wastrel, he could never set foot in the military again.

Now that the old emperor found himself without anyone to use, he remembered the Qee Family, thinking they would be as loyal to him as in the past?

“Does he truly not know that it was the Third Prince who saved the Qee Family when they nearly got annihilated?”

“He probably doesn’t,”

said Xia Huafeng, stating an absolute truth.

When the old emperor wanted to eliminate a family, he would directly command it to be done, and even if it failed, he would suppress them into the dirt.

As for the Qee Family back then, the old emperor didn’t dare to eradicate them outright, so he just suppressed them.

As long as the Qee Family couldn’t rise up again, who they had been closely associated with didn’t matter to the old emperor.

After all, they had already been crushed. Why would the old emperor care about their past alliances? So, he wouldn’t know who rescued the Qee Family, gasping for breath.

All he wanted were the results he desired, and that was enough for him.

“Are you going to go?”

He looked up at General Qi and asked.

“Hell no!”

cursed General Qi outright.
