The news of the Eldest Princess's return to the palace quickly reached the National Master Hall.
Gongsun Yanming was reviewing memorials on behalf of Prince Jin, and asked offhandedly, "Say that again, who returned to the palace?"
The disciple replied, "It's the Eldest Princess."
Gongsun Yanming glanced at the disciple, seeing him hesitate to speak, he said lightly, "Speak if there's something to say."
The disciple took a deep breath and boldly reported the situation that occurred at the palace gates.
After listening, Gongsun Yanming's hand, which was handling the memorials, paused, "She returned alone to the palace?"
"Yes."
The disciple responded.
Gongsun Yu clearly went to his fief, and there's been no news since.
"And also."
Having reported this much, the disciple simply revealed all unfavorable news in one breath, "The Eldest Princess brought back an army of twelve thousand, among which ten thousand... don't seem to be troops from our Great Liang."
