After such a long time, Gu Lan and Rong Heng finally arrived at the Southern Border. With Rong Shuo severely injured and unconscious, news of Gu Lan becoming the acting commander gradually reached the Capital City.
The court members were still unaware that Prince Rui was "dead," only knowing that the Wei Army hadn't attacked Cang Wind Port but Yinzhou instead.
Moreover, due to the sudden appearance of the Qiangrong cavalry, the Prince's fate was uncertain, leading to chaos at the Southern Border. Young Master Gu took the mantle during this crisis, replacing Prince Rui in overseeing the situation and thus becoming the Border Army Commander.
"Your Majesty, the Heir of Dingyuan Marquis is, after all, young and rash, lacking experience. How can we let her be the Border Army Commander?"
"Your Majesty, the urgent matter is to send an Imperial Physician to the Southern Border to treat Prince Rui's injuries."
