July 6, late night.
Lanling City, Imperial Palace.
Inside Qingde Palace, the Crown Prince was looking at the telegraph in his hand.
The contents of the telegraph all related to the Southern Border.
On the night of July 5, after the Eldest Prince and Prince Li arrived at the Southern Border to start their actions, news had already reached Lanling City.
But separated by thousands of miles, even with the news, Lanling City could not change the final outcome.
Sending reinforcements?
With Prince Li present, hastily sending troops or strong individuals from the nearest provinces would simply be sending them to their deaths.
Instructing the soldiers in the Southern Border to retreat quickly?
A blockade at main routes would trap most people, making escape impossible.
Ordering the Southern Border soldiers to resist resolutely?
Indeed, some chose to resist to the death, but it didn't change the overall situation.
