The words spoken by Yang Yi resonated clearly in the grand hall, and the Emperor quietly gazed at him, remaining silent for a long time.
The air in the room seemed to come to a standstill.
An eunuch, who had already reached the threshold, peeked inside the room and then silently retreated.
Only then did the Emperor look away and asked, "What is it?"
The eunuch stepped back in and said, "Your Majesty, General Pei and the General's wife request an audience in the palace."
The Emperor glanced at Yang Yi, "Did you ask them to come?"
Immersed in his emotions, Yang Yi looked up, a hint of bewilderment in his eyes. He then said, "No."
The Emperor then turned back to the eunuch, "What is their purpose?"
The eunuch replied, "General Pei did not say."
The Emperor fell silent again.
Under such quietness, Yang Yi felt a trace of awkwardness.
