Distraught, Ji Shengyue suddenly raised her head. Her sharp gaze swept to the door, a trace of disbelief flashing in her eyes.
She looked at the secretary standing by the door and asked, "You... say that again. Who is requesting an audience?"
Sensing the tension and surprise in Ji Shengyue's tone, the secretary immediately replied, "Reporting to Her Majesty the Queen, it is an envoy sent by the Lighthouse Empire.
We have carefully verified the envoy's identity and confirmed that he is undoubtedly from the Lighthouse Empire.
But when we asked the purpose of his visit, he claimed that only Her Majesty the Queen was qualified to know and that we had no right to inquire."
As he spoke, a flash of anger from being disdained appeared on the secretary's face, but he quickly suppressed it.
He had to swallow his anger when facing an envoy from the Lighthouse Empire.
