"..."
Dongfang Yaoe's mouth twitched and she directly crushed the invitation letter in her hand into fine powder.
"Go, and tell the Observatory about this." Dongfang Yaoe's face darkened slightly, "If there is no response from Shengjing, leave Lai State."
The maid was slightly stunned, "Go, where?"
"Southwest."
Dongfang Yaoe closed her eyes. If things truly spiraled beyond control, the Southwest would be the only place to secure a foothold.
Only Dongfang Xinglan, this niece of hers, could guarantee safety.
Although Dongfang Xinglan informed Dongfang Zhen about this matter to sow discord between Shengjing and Prince Ning, as the rebel leader, Dongfang Xinglan ventured this far to report this, at least it showed she cared for the Eastern Royal Family.
Even though this 'care' was likely her way to garner more support from the royal family, so what?
Right now, indeed only Dongfang Xinglan would protect the royal family.
