Already Making Their Move

  Zhang Shuming felt his scalp tingle when he heard this. Every time the Empress's reply was a little late, His Majesty would be very displeased.

 "Your Majesty, Her Imperial Highness has not replied. Perhaps Her Imperial Highness is busy and has been delayed by some matters."

 As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Shuming felt a sense of suffocation.

 He hurriedly kept quiet and tried his best to reduce his presence.

 After an unknown length of time, Xiao Jin stood up after he finished reading all the memorials on the desk. "If she still doesn't come back, I'll go and capture her back!"

 Zhang Shuming continued to play dead.

 Footsteps rang out outside the door at this moment.

 "Your Majesty, there's news from the border."

 Xiao Jin recovered himself and ordered the messenger to be sent in.

 Zhang Shuming received the message and brought it to Xiao Jin.

 Xiao Jin opened the message and read it rapidly.
