Background

There was an oil lamp burning in the central room. Uncle Yang took out a few pieces of paper that contained information about the recent situation in the Wu Kingdom.

"Nangong Huai is dead," Uncle Yang said.

The reason why Nangong Huai suddenly attacked Yan Guangmao was because Song Jingchen had sent him the evidence of the Yan family sending slaves from Great Xia to the Third Prince of the Wu Kingdom.

Nangong Huai knew that he had been deceived by the Yan family, so he was naturally furious.

Coupled with the fact that the emperor of the Wu Kingdom had always favored the Third Prince, he was worried that his position would sooner or later be taken away by the Third Prince, who had the support of the Yan family.

Therefore, Nangong Huai simply drugged Emperor Wu and controlled him. Then, he lured Ghost Face back to the capital.

However, he did not expect Ghost Face and Yan Guangmao to be rescued.
