A Situation At The Frontier

Everyone knew that Lu Tingchen was the Empress's brother.

Moreover, Lu Tingchen had displayed great prowess and successfully subdued the enemy state in the past year's Great Shang-Danjue battles. As a reward, the Emperor had promoted him to General, and since then, his name had spread far and wide.

At this time, many common folk had crowded outside the city gates, waiting to enter the city.

At the sound of the man's shouts, all heads turned in his direction.

He was covered in dust from his journey, and his lips were dry and cracked, but despite how worn out he was, his eyes remained unusually bright.

At once, a series of murmurs rippled through the crowd. Emergency reports usually concerned military affairs. Could another war have broken out at the frontier?

Having heard the rider's shouts, the soldiers at the city gates leaned over and glanced at the token in his hand, then dashed off to report to the city fort's commanding general.
