Although he had mentally prepared himself, Bai Zhizhan was still a little surprised when he entered the Commander-in-chief's office and saw Xue Yuanzheng.
Then, he noticed that the Grand Secretary was in casual clothes.
It certainly wasn't to see Liu Changxun; it was something very important that could not be conveyed through official channels and had to be discussed in person.
While Bai Zhizhan was greeting Xue Yuanzheng, Liu Changxun poured a cup of coffee for Bai Zhizhan.
This was to hint to Bai Zhizhan that the Grand Secretary was bringing up a subject that couldn't possibly be summarized in just a few words, so he should take it easy for the moment.
"This was brought by the Bulan Ambassador this morning, you take a look."
A diplomatic note?
Catching the document that Xue Yuanzheng handed over, Bai Zhizhan immediately furrowed his brows.
To call it a diplomatic note would be an understatement; it was more of an ultimatum.
