Qi Yue chuckled, enumerating the major events that had recently unfolded as if they were common knowledge.
Even though she hadn't paid much attention to military news lately, she made sure that any matters involving Zhao Xiyan were compiled by the Black Feather Guard and reported to her.
Many issues she hadn't discussed in the meetings with her close advisors didn't mean she was unaware of them.
For instance: The Emperor of Donggao had suddenly fallen seriously ill, and Song Qingshan had been called back, stripped of his military authority.
Meanwhile, in Beiyuan, more and more County Governments and local powers unilaterally declared their defection from the Beiyuan court and surrendered to Zhao Xiyan.
Where the hearts of the people went, the battles on Beiyuan's side simply couldn't commence.
