The Capital City experienced a heavy rain, water pooled in the courtyard, and crystal-clear raindrops remained on the fallen leaves.
Meng Qianqian sat quietly by the window sill, leafing through the maps of the Western Regions' ten countries.
It had been several days since the Loulan Envoy left the Capital City, and Emperor Liang had recovered from his injuries.
By right, he should have returned to Liang Country to handle state affairs, but he was reluctant to leave his grandmother and a few children, so he wrote another letter to Crown Prince Lu Zhaoyan, asking him to continue as Regent.
However, just this morning, he received news from Miaojiang that Liu Qingyun was about to marry Crown Prince of Liang Country as a Princess of Miaojiang.
As a lord, he must return to Liang Country.
His grandmother was too elderly to withstand the toil of travel.
"Mother, I'll be back soon."
