Shang Jingwang was taken aback, "Is the news reliable?"
The Household Soldier said, "I saw with my own eyes that the Prefectural Governor's carriage was heading towards the military camp!"
Shang Jingwang muttered, "It's over, it's over. Lord Yu arriving so quickly is like rushing through day and night. This is clearly leaving us no way out!"
Not only did he think so, but Huangfu Jingchen also deeply agreed.
Even before Yu Shikui arrived, he had ordered Wen Hao to prepare kerosene and firewood and rushed here himself. Although the carriage was slower, it was only a day behind Wen Hao. His attitude was already very clear.
Shang Jingwang said, "I will go to see Lord Yu!"
Huangfu Jingchen said, "I'll accompany you!"
Shang Jingwang hurriedly handed in a letter, wanting to seek an audience with Yu Shikui.
After the letter was delivered, he paced outside the camp non-stop, his anxiety evident. Huangfu Jingchen stood quietly on one side, observing the tent.
