1193: Letter from the Court 2

Letter from the Court 2

What could have happened so suddenly?1

Zhou Huaijin could not figure it out.

His hidden guards were all over the capital so if something happened, he would have known everything ahead of time. Normally, he should have known about anything that had already happened.

He had thought that he could spend some time with Mrs. Min at her mansion, because he had not yet met her in ages, but it seemed that he could not do that right now. He had to be in the court since he was summoned. It was a very chaotic time right now, and no one knew what would happen.

Zhou Huaijin looked at Gu Chaoyan gently and he had a look of apology. "I am sorry that I need to go to court. You can go to Mrs. Min with Sword One. If you have time, you can spend more time there, and I will fetch you when I leave the court."

Gu Chaoyan nodded. "Just go."

Zhou Huaijin hurried away.

When he was gone, Gu Chaoyan subconsciously sipped her tea, wondering what on earth had happened for the King to summon everyone to the court. She frowned, looking really anxious.

There were many things happening in the capital, and every day, there was something new. Gu Chaoyan sighed, wondering when that would be settled.

"I wonder what is happening. It is the first time that the King has urgently summoned so many people to the court. Normally, he would just summon a few important ministers, but now, he has summoned everyone!" Sword One sighed emotionally, as she poured some more tea for Gu Chaoyan.

Gu Chaoyan didn't think that it would be something positive.

Just as Sword One had said, that was the first time for the King to panic like this. He must have lost his mind to urgently summon so many people to the court.

Something big must have happened.

Gu Chaoyan let out a sigh. "The whole world is going to get messy from this day on."

"…"

"Anyway, no need to think about this now, let's go to Mrs. Min," Gu Chaoyan said.

Before Huaijin left, he said that he was meeting her at Mrs. Min's. So she believed that Huaijin must have something to discuss with Mrs. Min, and Huaijin must have realized something.

Gu Chaoyan still looked very anxious, though she claimed that she was not thinking about it.

So she headed to Mrs. Min's mansion together with Sword One.

On the other hand, Zhou Huaijin had already arrived at the court. It was already very late when he arrived, because many officers and ministers had already headed towards the hall from their homes. Many of them did not even have hats on. They looked very anxious and exchanged no words as they headed to the hall, fearing that they would be left behind.

Zhou Huaijin glanced about and continued. After a while, he ran into Prime Minister Chu, who walked steadily towards him. He slowed down, but they walked without exchanging any words. They exchanged a look and knew what they were thinking. Together, they headed towards the hall.

As they came to the hall, it was already filled with people.

"The Crown Prince is still not here?" the King asked furiously.
