บท 1277: A Dark Move

...

In the Imperial City, the Empire royal guard had just escorted Tang Wu back to the palace on his griffins.

This time, he personally convinced two Empire feudal lords to pledge their loyalty. Several lords around the Imperial City also surrendered. Tang Wu was in a very good mood.

"What's wrong?"

He had just sat on the throne and had yet to enjoy it when Tang Wu noticed that Ding Shixiu's expression was not too good.

"Your Majesty, this is the report that the Tianshu Academy just provided."

"Hand it over."

Tang Wu received the report from the guard. After opening it and reading it line by line, his expression became worse and worse.

"Bang!"

Tang Wu's eyes reddened as he slammed the report on the table!

"What happened?"

He had gone through a lot of trouble to convince two feudal lords to surrender, but before he could celebrate, five feudal lords had already surrendered to Tang Mingyue.
