As the lanterns first lit up, the grandeur and splendor of the palace were even more pronounced at night, with the translucent glazed tiles shimmering under the light of the flames.
However, within the bluestone slabs of the palace, cracks had formed one after another, all spreading to the main hall.
The three mountains crumbled and collapsed, the water in the pool was drained, and the trees and greenery within the palace seemed to have lost all vitality, withering and dying.
Inside the main hall, Cui Shuang stared blankly at Yang Minggui lying in a pool of blood.
The turn of events clearly exceeded everyone's expectations.
The Commander was actually backstabbed by the Military Advisor...
After a brief daze, Cui Shuang, in a panic, immediately shattered the teacup and shouted towards the outside: "Someone, quickly, someone!"
"Bang!"
The heavy doors of the main hall were pushed open, making a deep sound.
Thud, thud, thud!
