Bab 129: Not in time

After busying outside for a day, Sima Lie only returned at night and the uneasy feeling he had in his heart had increased in intensity.

"Steward, where are the young masters?"

The Steward from in from outside, saying, "General, Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master have gone to patrol the Lin City. Third Young Master is at home, while Fourth and Fifth Young Master are at the academy."

"Go and get them all to return." Sima Lie said.

The Steward looked at Sima Lie with a look of confusion. Wasn't it that nothing out of the ordinary had happened today? Why would he suddenly want to call them to return?

"General, do you want it done now?"

"Mm. Go right now. Let Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master rush back through the night." Sima Lie said.

Seeing how grave Sima Lie was behaving, the Stewards knew that something big had happened. He said, "This elderly servant will go now."
