Have an Appointment

With Rong Xiu's abilities, if he wanted to, he could definitely reach here at the fastest speed without attracting anyone's attention. But not only did he come so late now, he was even on a horse carriage. This doesn't fit his usual working style. Unless… There are other reasons for him doing so.

Chu Liuyue raised her brows. "Oh? What was the matter?"

Rong Xiu calmly said, "The Empress committed suicide."

The Empress is actually dead?! Chu Liuyue was shocked. "When did it happen?"
