Chapter 299: Sounded Like A Crow

They were a good foot away, their royal attendants standing behind them, also forced to witness the gruesome scene. During these early years of the Heping Empire, the emperor had not spent the rest of his day behind a huge table. He was almost always clad in his metal armor or his military jacket, his inevitable daily life of sitting on the throne still not sinking into him.
