"What? Father has returned?!"
The Blood Sacrifice Array had been in operation for nearly two months.
The matter had long since caused an uproar, known to all under heaven.
Within the Capital City, it even once fell into chaos.
After all, the Emperor, the two Princes, along with the Old Governor, were all in Liangzhou—if anything were to happen, I fear that the chaos would not subside for at least two years.
But it was on this day that they suddenly received news.
The crisis in Liangzhou had been resolved.
Not only that, but His Majesty the Emperor had also returned early and announced the court assembly as usual.
Inside the Qinghe Hall.
Civil and military officials gathered in full attendance.
Emperor Longqing sat on the Dragon Chair, tending to all the accumulated state affairs from as early as 5 a.m. until the evening before they concluded, after which he explained a number of issues concerning the subsequent handling of the court's governance.
