With the movement of the Imperial Design and the imminent return of the army, the situation underwent thousands of changes and fell once more into the Divine Empress's control.
Standing on the summit of the Mausoleum of Books, she gazed at a certain place in the capital and asked, "What did all of you come here for?"
From the moment the Qiushan clan head and its Guardian entered the capital, they had remained silent and low-key, making it very easy for others to forget their existence.
But since the Tianhai Divine Empress had spoken now, they could no longer continue to pretend that they didn't exist.
"This matter has not one bit of relationship with my Qiushan clan."
The Qiushan clan head looked at the peak of the Mausoleum of Books, his attitude abnormally humble. "The Empress knows well that we came to the capital in preparation to enjoy the maples."
No one believed this explanation. It was especially clumsy, even silly.
