She suddenly stood up and asked, “Where’s the messenger? Stop him!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Hui Xiang immediately went out and put her finger into her mouth and whistled. A group of people dressed in black and masked immediately jumped in from the courtyard walls.

Hui Xiang then said, “The Empress has ordered to immediately capture the person who just delivered the letter!”

“Yes!” The men in black immediately jumped over the wall to catch the man who had delivered the letter.

After a while, one of the black robed men came again and whispered something in Hui Xiang’s ear. Only then did Hui Xiang enter the meditation room again. In the inner room of the meditation room, The Empress had already opened the letter and read it. At this moment, the letter was open and placed on the dark red table beside her.

The Empress’s eyes were sharp, but she was expressionless.

Hui Xiang came in and respectfully reported what the black robed man had said to her. The Empress’s eyes started to wander.

After a long while, The Empress tapped the table with her fingertips. “You know everything about the paper, ink, brush, and stone that Da Ling makes.

Take a look at this letter and help me identity where the paper and ink came from, as well as this envelope.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Although Hui Xiang did not understand why the Empress had such a strange expression when she saw the words on the envelope, she still respectfully responded.

She picked up the opened letter on the table. As soon as she saw the contents of the letter, her expression changed and her hands trembled. She quickly steadied her mind and identified the paper and ink of the letter.

When she recognized it, she respectfully replied, “Your Majesty, this envelope, paper, and ink are all produced in the area around Jingke. We can buy the stuff from many bookstores in Da Ling.”

“Jingke? Isn’t that the North?” The Empress frowned. Then, she laughed. “The ship came from the South, but it’s all from the North. At this point, anything is possible. This just makes it impossible for me to find them.”

“Above this…” Hui Xiang’s hand that was holding the letter trembled again. “If the letter is true, that means the Emperor would die next year.”

“No matter what the goal of the person who wrote this letter is, I will not let this happen.” After she finished speaking, the Empress ordered her people, “Go and pack your things. I want to return to the palace.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Hui Xiang immediately went to make arrangements. Looking at the letter lying back on the table, the Empress picked it up again after a long while. If it wasn’t for the fact that her father had passed away and this letter was clearly written recently, she would have really thought that it was written by her father.

Many scholars in the capital city wanted to imitate her father’s handwriting, but none of them could do it well. However, her father’s handwriting was as smooth as flowing water. It was written in one go, and each word was like a steel knife that could slice even an elephant in one strike. The entire paper was filled with murderous intent. He was like a God of War who fought with all his might on the battlefield. No one could stop him. He would kill any God or Buddha he met. As long as he could protect Da Ling and the people, he would do anything. Her father’s handwriting was like the portrayal of her father as he was the defender-general of the state.

She was unsure how this person managed to forge the writing… And the contents of the letter…

The Empress stared at the contents of the letter, but her gaze became more and more determined. She would rather believe it than not. There was no harm in believing it, but not believing it might not necessarily be without harm. As soon as the carriage was ready, the Empress got on the carriage and returned to the palace.

It was quick and easy.

When she left the palace, it was even simpler than this. Other than her eldest son, Emperor Hao, no one in the palace knew that she was actually not in the palace..
