About This Book
An army gathers at the capital to press grievances against a corrupt minister, but emissaries are seized and imprisoned. A small band of warriors, aided by a female strategist who summons cloud transport, breaches palace defenses to present evidence, prompting the emperor to investigate; the minister's plots are exposed, prisoners are pardoned, and loyal officers receive honors. Leadership fractures as the minister flees, and commanders reorganize for a sanctioned campaign against invading foes; feasting and formal promotions follow while preparations and troop deployments set the stage for the coming military expedition.
