Chapter 1009 - 1009 478 Second Watch
?Chapter 1009: 478 Second Watch Chapter 1009: 478 Second Watch Upon entering the Imperial Palace, Marquis Xuanping received an imperial edict to head south immediately. The Emperor appointed him as the special minister for the southern inspection tour, temporarily taking over the role of Naval Commander of Nanhai City, with orders to exterminate bandits with the greatest speed and least cost and to recapture the southern islands.

Eunuch Wei didn’t care.
