Chapter 356 - Is there going to be another war?
"Is there going to be another war?" a timid girl asked weakly.
"Little Apple, you are so ignorant. Don't you know that the palace in the capital of Dongchu has changed hands?" An elegant man in a navy blue robe poked the girl's forehead with his fan in disappointment.
The girl called Little Apple sniffed aggrievedly and her eyes instantly turned red. She was locked up in this building every day and all she had to do was lie on the bed obediently and let others do whatever they wanted. She had no chance to hear so many things happening outside the window.
"Oh, my darling little apple, please don't cry. Isn't it enough for me to tell you?" The man hit his head with his fan because of a headache, and hurriedly hugged little apple in his arms to coax her.
"It is said that the royal palace of our East Chu Kingdom was captured a few days ago, the emperor was captured and the new emperor ascended the throne. All of a sudden, the entire court was reshuffled, some were promoted, some were exiled. After the court had finally stabilized, it began to reorganize the army." The elegant man talked incessantly, unaware of how much shock his words brought to the girl in the building.
"Did you hear that? Dong Chu has a new emperor..."
"I don't know if the new emperor will grant amnesty to the whole nation..."
"If we are exempted from the status of slaves, can we return home and get married? I am really looking forward to it..."
Looking at these ecstatic women, Song Yunli's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Was Chu Yuhuan captured? Although he betrayed her and Amu on the battlefield, after all, they had a friendship in the past and she was still a little sad.
"Shh... girls, you have to be careful. Our country is no longer called Dong Chu. If you keep talking without restraint like this, you may suffer an unexpected disaster!" The man suddenly covered Xiao Pingguo's mouth and glared at her fiercely. It is conceivable that the tears that the girl had just held back instantly burst out again.
"Don't cry, auntie. Isn't it enough for me to tell you?" The elegant man held Xiaojuzi's face and kissed and coaxed her.
"Then you... hiccup... still don't say anything..." Little Apple said while sobbing, looking very aggrieved. Even Song Yunli who was not far away was almost taken down by this attack, not to mention the elegant man.
"Nowadays, the name of the East Chu Kingdom has been changed to South Chu Kingdom, and the new emperor is the younger brother of the Emperor of the South Yue Kingdom, that is, the Ghost-faced War King Feng Muyan..." Because common people are not allowed to discuss the title of the monarch, the man kept his voice extremely low when he said the name.
Even so, Song Yunli still heard it clearly. She grabbed the man's collar in disbelief and said anxiously, "Tell me again what the new emperor's name is?"
The elegant man was stunned. Was this pregnant woman wearing a veil also from the Linxian Pavilion? It shouldn't be. There was no girl in this pavilion that he didn't know. Besides, any girl who lost her virginity would be forced to drink the sterilizing soup by Sister Hua. How could she be pregnant?
"Madam, Linxian Pavilion is a place where men come to have fun. It's not good for a woman like you to come here." The elegant man kindly reminded.
"You talk too much nonsense. Let me ask you what is the name of the current emperor?" Song Yunli became anxious and tightened her grip. She saw the man's face turn purple in an instant, as if he would die at any time.
"The new emperor is Feng Muyan... Let go... I'm almost out of breath..."
Song Yunli let go of her hand in ecstasy, and ran towards the army outside in a hurry. Since Amu was now the emperor, she would be able to reach the capital smoothly by following this team, and they would meet again soon.
