"It's been six months since Mingye went on the literature trip with Mizi Yue. I miss him,"Jinxiu Shan sighed.
"I also miss him. I heard His Royal Majesty is very ill. I'm sure Mingye will come back soon."
Wen Mingye stood at the balcony enjoying the view of Lianzhou. A flying carrier pigeon flew towards him and landed on his hand. He took the missive attached to its leg and read it. It was from Empress Bai. She had summoned him back to Mingzhou because Emperor Wen was seriously ill .
"What's wrong?"Mizi Yue asked worriedly when Wen Mingye walked back in to the room looking sad.
"My father is sick. Mother wants me to return to Mingzhou."
"Then let's pack."
"But didn't you say you won't go back till next spring?"
"It's almost Spring in the Northern Dynasty I will go there to enjoy Fruity wines after I drop you in Mingzhou."
"You're going to the Northern Dynasty again?"
"Yes."
