"She can't afford to lose, which is why she has to risk everything on this one gamble."
Ji Ruyan nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly remembered something, "Why are you here?"
"I originally wanted to discuss something with you, but then you caught a cold. And you've had a fever for three days, I'm afraid telling you now won't do any good."
"What is it?"
"General Yu Xiaolong has returned to the capital to report on his duties. The Imperial Edict was issued three days ago, by this time it has likely already reached the Southern Border."
Ji Ruyan's eyes widened in shock, "What? At this time!"
She least wanted to get entangled with the Yu Family, yet this Yu Xiaolong was coming back.
Yu Xiaolong, while a Great General of the Southern Border, was also very shrewd. If he joined forces with Consort Wan, she feared there would be great upheaval in the palace, which would conflict with her own plans.
