As night fell, the moon shone brightly amidst sparse stars, and the late spring breeze was gentle and refreshing, making one feel at ease as it blew across the face.
Long Yue and Li Qingmu had finished their dinner, closed the small window to keep out the wind, and prepared for bed. However, just as they lay down, a commotion arose outside.
"Get up, everyone up, by order of the Emperor, the real culprit behind the wolf attack must be found. All of you head to the main camp immediately, no personal belongings allowed! Disobedience will be punished by death!"
The speaker's voice was loud and domineering, even disregarding some palace maids and princes, clearly a close aide of the Emperor.
Li Qingmu and Long Yue exchanged glances, and Li Qingmu sneered, "Tonight is destined to be sleepless, let's go!"
The two quickly headed outside; at this time, anyone who dawdled would look the most suspicious.
