...
The next day.
Qin Capital, outside the Imperial City.
Under the high walls, the snow lay thick.
Before the palace gates, someone knelt with both knees on the ground, the wind and snow fluttering, resembling a snowman.
"Left Minister, you should go back. Master Tang has ordered that no one is allowed to enter the palace."
Zuo Yuan remained motionless, his lowered eyes gleaming with a strange light.
Beside him, several others knelt, including Minister of the Ministry of Rites Qi Nankai, Minister of the Ministry of Industry Shangguan Kang, Minister of the Ministry of Personnel Liao Yuan...
Behind them stood numerous civil and military officials.
"General Tian, how is His Majesty? Is there no court session today?" Zuo Yuan asked with deep concern.
