Just like all the other streets of the capital, the Road of Peace was extremely deserted.
The experts of the Tianhai clan and the princely estates had left the city some time ago to meet up with the rebel army, and they were now all outside the Imperial Palace.
Yet it was at this moment that the Prince of Zhongshan chose to leave the rebel army and return to his estate on the Road of Peace.
The princes of the Chen clan with the greatest prestige in the military were the Prince of Xiang and the Prince of Zhongshan.
His departure left the rebel army stunned, even shaken.
Qin Chi was the chief strategist of the princely estate. He had not gone north with the army, instead secretly remaining in the capital to coordinate between the two sides.
Upon receiving the news, he hurried back to the princely estate. Upon seeing the prince sitting in the palace armchair, he looked like he had seen a ghost.
