After the teasing the crap out of Jinghua (Doctor), Yang Qui (3rd Prince) decided to give his friend a couple of minutes of break. He went to the restroom and splashed water on his face. He looked at the mirror, trying to come up with the words.
"Father, they are coming for us," he thought in his head. He didn't need to sugarcoat anything. His father had once been a soldier before he was named Emperor. He would understand his bluntness. He had to tell him tonight.
They needed to prepare.
In this New World, information was hard to come by. Most of everything was in ruins. If you didn't have a spy from the enemy's land, you would not be able to know what their next move would be. The only thing that you can do is to be always prepared. That was the main reason why the Emperor had built the wall around Heping. Only a crazy general with a death wish would attack a walled palace. That was basic war tactic.
