Capítulo 119: Chapter 0119: The Imperial Carriage Returns to the Capital

Emperor Kangxi's imperial carriage returned to the Capital on the seventeenth day of the eighth month.

There was no prior notice, and though the princes all knew that it was around this time that His Majesty was due back, they found out only when the imperial carriage was already outside the city, rumored to be on the verge of entering.

Everyone was still shocked.

The news broke just two days ago, and His Majesty had already returned.

Even flight couldn't have been so fast; that meant when the message was sent, His Majesty had already set off.

Since His Majesty had already set off, the news from the Capital...must have been false.

It was His Majesty the Emperor's will, wasn't it? He had people send the message back first, and then he himself was already on his way.

What did this mean? Who was he guarding against?

This time, even Prince Zhi was taken aback; his eyebrows deeply furrowed, his heart indescribably somber.
