Chapter 320 - Unexpected Development (2)

Name:Villain Lady Author:Sorahana
While she was thinking, a servant hurriedly came and kowtowed. "Your Majesty, there's emergency!"

Ji Shu looked at the servant with a scowl. "What happened?"

"There's a messenger from the south magister. He came to carry this and said that Your Majesty have to read it right away."

Ji Shu took the bamboo and opened the seal. Unfurling the bamboo strips, he began to read the words inside. The more he read, the angrier he got.

Pak!

The scroll was thrown to the floor. Ji Shu looked at the servant with dangerous aura. "Lead me to the servant."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Ji Shu took a last glance at Wei Xiao Hua and gave an apologetic smile. "I need to handle something. Please wait here."

"En."

Wei Xiao Hua didn't remember this scene from the novel. She picked up the scroll and read the content. The words were describing about the chaos that occurred in the south. Apparently, there were some officials who disagreed with Ji Shu as the Emperor and launched rebellions.

'Another rebellion? That shouldn't be possible.'

Based on the novel that she didn't manage to read until the end, there shouldn't be any other obstacle that was left… oh right, it was not ending yet. If she was not wrong from the spoiler that she got from the author, Ji Shu would have to retake the capital city. After that, there was no more obstacle.

But retaking from whom was never explained by the stingy author who didn't want to give out the spoiler until they read by themselves.

'Also, there's no indication of the south in chaos before the battle with Prince Ji Sheng.'

Wei Xiao Hua was utterly confused. Was the changing timeline she had caused due to some of her negliance or interference in some things would really affect the big picture this big? She was hoping that she would not change things too much since she didn't want to change the happy ending that the protagonist got after so much hard work.

Still, there were some things that she could not do exactly the same as the real transmigrated Wei Xiao Hua.

She couldn't be as ruthless and as indifference as the real transmigrated Wei Xiao Hua. At first, she did treat everything like a game and followed the same course of action as what the author wrote in the novel. But when she saw an incident for the first time in her life, she felt fear. Fear that she would die so miserably if she took the wrong action.

Being the protagonist meant that she would have the golden finger. Unfortunately, the author of the novel was known to make the protagonist's life difficult so that the character would grow both mentally and physically. It was a rough journey and might even scare away some readers. However, it was the type of story that Wei Xiao Hua loved so much. She loved to see the changes that occurred in the real protagonist Wei Xiao Hua as she grew more decisive and ruthless in order to survive.

She thought that she would be able to do the same.

But now, she realized that it was impossible. She didn't have the capabilities to do the same because of the difference in her mentality and the real transmigrated Wei Xiao Hua.

'There's no point thinking about this.'

'I should just focus on the matter on hand.'

Wei Xiao Hua looked at the scroll once more, thinking hard of when did she ever saw something like this. After the battle with Prince Ji Sheng, where Ji Shu emerged victoriously, there was a message from the capital city. They could not celebrate their victory for long because they have to return back soon and prepare for one final battle.

But she didn't know the detail.

The last chapter she read was the one that depicted their return. Ji Shu didn't elaborate the details to Wei Xiao Hua in the novel, so the readers would have to wait until the designated chapter to be able to know what happened. And she just had to stop at that moment…

If only she could read a few minutes longer…

Wei Xiao Hua sighed, blaming her transmigration here. In fact, she didn't know how she managed to get transmigrated in the first place since she didn't even have the memory of dying or anything like that. Her last memory was simply the time when she open WN app and read the chapter of their return to the capital city.

'What if… there's truly a change?'

'A small change that's enough to cause massive butterfly effect…'

If there was anyone important that she knew still alive even though he was supposed to be death, it would be Strategist Liu. She didn't think too much about it before since she believed that Ji Shu would be able to do things well.

But now…

She was not totally sure anymore.

'I need to find out who Strategist Liu truly is and then….'

"Your Highness!" a maidservant rushed in and bowed in front of Wei Xiao Hua. "There's emergency."

"What is it?"

"The capital city is surrounded by soldiers! We're trapped here."

Wei Xiao Hua's eyes widened in disbelief. How come so many soldiers coming out of nowhere?

"That's impossible!" Wei Xiao Hua blurted out.

"It's true, Your Highness. You can come out and take a look…"

Without waiting for the servant to finish, Wei Xiao Hua rushed out of the residence and dashed out. She got into her carriage and ordered them to lead her to the wall. There was nothing in her mind but to reach the wall as soon as possible and confirmed that there was truly a war going on.

It shouldn't have developed this way.

It shouldn't be possible.

Chanting in her mind, Wei Xiao Hua prayed hard so that things were not as bad as the servants said. By the time she arrived at the wall, she rushed up. Upon looking around, no words came out of her throat.

She wanted to cry.
