Owen rushed back to the Imperial Capital from Thousand Peaks.
At this time, the Imperial Capital was heavily guarded.
The figures of Black Rose and Eagle Guard were seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.
Clearly, the Imperial Capital was now completely under Leslie's control.
As Owen traveled from the city gate to the Duke's mansion, everyone he encountered, whether Black Rose or Eagle Guard, saluted him solemnly and shouted in unison, "Greetings to the King's Consort!"
Because of this, the entire Imperial Capital knew that Owen had returned.
Upon hearing the news, many ministers who had already pledged allegiance to Leslie came with their treasured rare items, hoping to pay their respects to Owen.
However, without exception, they were all stopped at the door by Leslie's personal guards.
