Chapter 548: Finale

Under the monitoring of Xie Heng, Xie Jun read the proceedings diligently until the latter felt like throwing up. Only then did Xie Heng leave him alone and go home.

Xie Jun heaved a sigh of relief. He summoned a servant and ordered, "Send someone immediately to Guangqing Province. The disaster relief has already ended. Heir Qiao should come back to Imperial City!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The servant went to do so right away. They knew that the Emperor feared the grand secretary. Xie Jun hoped his Sis would return to the capital soon to keep the latter occupied.

By the time Xie Heng left the palace, it was already curfew time. Aside from the patrolling soldiers, no one else was on the streets. The streets were as empty as his heart.

Once he recalled that his wife was not home, Xie Heng wanted to leave the capital and drag her home.

How could she have gone for so long?
