The news that the capital was besieged reached Zhending Mansion and everyone was shocked.
Mu Mingtang was eating stremella soup, so when she heard the news, she accidentally dropped the spoon. She didnt bother to clean up her now sodden skirt and immediately asked the servant who relayed the message, Is this true?

The other servants were so frightened that they gathered around her and didnt know what to do. Mu Mingtang calmed down, paused for a while and asked, What else did the envoy say?
The servant who delivered the message glanced timidly at Mu Mingtang, as if she didnt dare to say anything else, The messenger also saidHis Majesty asked His Highness to hand over his military power and release King Dongdan immediately.
Although Mu Mingtang did not participate in the war, she also knew that Xie Xuanchen and General Xu of Zhongshan City were closing the net. They were about to capture Ye Luji alive before suddenly receiving this order.
Once Ye Luji was released, all of Xie Xuanchens hard work would be in vain.
The servants felt uncomfortable thinking about this. He was about to be caught, but they had to let him go? How could they be willing to let him go just like that?

But its too late to say anything now. All of his subordinates watched helplessly as Xie Xuanchen smashed the heavy desk case, making them frightened even though they kept silent. None of them dared to speak. After finally seeing that Xie Xuanchen beccalmer, someone asked tentatively, Your Highness, what do you think we should do now?
Should Ye Luji be released or should the military power be handed over?
Xie Xuanchen was so angry that he stood in front of the desk for a while. After feeling that his senses had returned, he said, Inform Senior General Xu and let him go.
