That night, Qi Yue returned fully laden and quickly fell into a deep sleep in his space, but the entire Donggao Imperial Palace was turned upside down.
The Qianhua Hall, where the Donggao Emperor usually dealt with state affairs, had been burgled!
The throne, imperial desk, piles of petitions from the past few days, plaques, books, maps, even the candlesticks and tables for the candlesticks had been stolen.
The side halls on both sides were also emptied!
But most importantly, the Jade Seal!
The Jade Seal had disappeared!
This was a disgrace of monumental proportions!
Upon receiving the news, the Donggao Emperor immediately had a bad premonition and hurried to his private treasury, only to pass out on the spot!
After being revived, the Donggao Emperor nearly died right then and there!
All these years, his public persona had always been one of poverty!
