Since We Have to Go Sooner or Later, Why Not Go Sooner?

The night sky was cut apart by the extremely close eaves into a black cloth.

The stars were truly very bright tonight. It was like someone had used golden thread to weave many tiny flowers into the black cloth.

This place was the deepest hall within the Li Palace, and also Chen Changsheng's residence.

He was currently eating, accompanied by Gou Hanshi.

Qiushan Jun remained to guard Mount Li, and Qi Jian had failed to obtain permission to follow Zhexiu to the north.

Guan Feibai, Liang Banhu, and Bai Cai had gone to the front line.

But Gou Hanshi had been kept by Chen Changsheng.

After they concluded their very simple meal, An Hua and several priests came in with a file that had just been sent over. They laid the contents out on the desks placed in front of Chen Changsheng and Gou Hanshi.

The only sound in the hall was the gurgling of flowing water.

The Green Leaf had been taken somewhere else.

After some time, Gou Hanshi raised his head and rubbed his rather fatigued face.
