Two days later, Ren Baqian took the box back to Dayao just after noon.
He carefully stored the box and strolled toward the hall of the city commander's residence. A group of people were hurriedly entering and exiting the hall.
The empress was seated at the seat of honor as she daydreamed. It was unknown what she was thinking about.
"Your Majesty, how's the situation now?" Ren Baqian walked beside her and asked.
Upon hearing the noise, the empress's eyes finally came into focus. Her eyes first circled Ren Baqian's face before she extended her hand to take the bag he was holding. She rummaged through the contents of the bag before placing it by her feet.
Then, she finally spoke, "Great Xia has been attacking for the entire night. Over the past two days, they lost about 30,000 people. There are about 1,500 injured or dead Great Xia soldiers in the city as well. Now, even the winged cavalry is staying behind to defend the city wall."
