Bai Yu went around to find paper and brush by herself as she let the maids continue with their work. But before she could start writing, the black magic eagle appeared in front of her again. Bai Yu accepted another small letter and opened it.
‘I forgot to ask. What did you say to Wangye? Normally, not even the Emperor can stop the black dragon when he’s decided to return to the border. But this time, a letter from the Emperor came just a few days after we left the capital. It said that the Emperor wanted his brother to be at the banquet. It was unusual. Even more unusual, Wangye accepted the Emperor’s invitation, even though he had been dead set on going back to the border. Is it because of something you said to him before the departure? Does it change his mind, or does it anger him so he wants to go back to punish you? It’ll be three days before I reach the capital. You too, prepare yourself.
Hope to see you soon,
Big brother’
