In the Northern Province, the plan to attack Tan Gengxin was delayed because of the heavy rain. But with this, a good thing happened– Tan Gengxin sent a reply to the message of the Crown Prince.
Sheng Li read the message. He snickered and looked at Ying Lili. "Tan Gengxin has challenged us as well. He does not want to end this peacefully," Sheng Li pronounced.
"Because he thinks we will fall into his trap," Ying Lili reasoned.
"Hmm. He does not know that Huo Jin betrayed him," Sheng Li stated. "He might attack us any time so, stay on alert," Sheng Li commanded Xiao Zhan.
"The hill will be difficult to climb on after today's heavy rain. We have to deploy a few of our soldiers there to trap Tan Gengxin and his army," Ying Lili affirmed while looking at the map in her hand. "There is a good thing about this Palace structure. He has fortified it, unlike the Imperial Han Palace." Sheng Li glanced at her when he heard her speaking.
