'Hmm?'
Ling Han faltered for a moment. Hu Niu!
Why had she come?
Realization immediately dawned on Ling Han. Commander Guan had to have reported the situation at the time to Hu Niu, and said that he had already died. But how could Hu Niu be willing to believe that? Thus, she had come personally.
"What is it?" The Empress could not sense what was happening outside the Black Tower.
Ling Han broke into a smile, and said, "Hu Niu is here. Before long, we will be able to meet."
It was rare for the Empress to bear a solemn expression. In the past, one of her doppelgangers had seen Hu Niu, and she knew just how jealous this little girl could be. She also knew that Hu Niu was also exquisitely beautiful, in no way inferior to her.
It would be a challenge for her to get Hu Niu on her side, and continue to sit on precious seat as the first wife of the Ling Clan.
But the Empress was filled with confidence.
