The moat collapse happened just today.
Their news arrived somewhat quickly, but Nanming is, after all, not a place that Shiyi is familiar with.
Shiyi's information network in Nanming has only just begun to unfold.
It might not even be as fast as the individual members of the Imperial Family.
At best, it is on par.
As for the common folk, there's even less need to mention it, news always comes with a delay.
But the news had hardly just returned not long ago, barely the time it took to change the State Preceptor's medicine, and yet street songs started to spread?
If you said this wasn't someone deliberately orchestrating from behind the scenes, they would never believe it, even if you killed them.
"This ballad must have been stirred up by someone with ulterior motives, but the key is, after receiving the news of the moat collapse, composing and writing lyrics would still need some time."
