Governor's Mansion, in front of the White Tiger Festival Hall, fire basins are lit, making the place as bright as daylight.
Inside the White Tiger Festival Hall, several tables are put together, spreading out a map about a zhang long, featuring places such as Guyuan, Quwu Mountain, Ziwu Ridge, and Long Mountain, each marked on it.
At this moment, Li Xuan is pointing at the map, whispering to the Crown Prince, "Your Highness, today I glanced from atop the city walls, I could only see the camps and cooking smoke of the Jing Dynasty Heavenly Strategy Army from afar. Before I could take a closer look, Zhou You had people drive me away…"
The Crown Prince looked at the map and lamented, "What a grand landscape, yet we are trapped within these walls of Guyuan City, as if someone has covered our eyes, unable to see clearly or accomplish anything."
Li Xuan said guiltily, "It is my incompetence."
