It had been a mystery why the nation's grand tutor would choose to stay at such a remote place like Ji City.
Fortunately, because of his reputation for disliking people who disrupt his peace, no one dared to bother him.
In the simple yet elegant yard, Xing Lou stood under a tree, with the warm sunlight landing on his shoulders and a dark guard stood at the side with a pot of tea.
"Has Gong Zhiyu left?" suddenly, Xing Lou asked.
"Yes, he had left Ji City early yesterday morning," the dark guard replied.
Xing Lou nodded, feeling satisfied.
"Grand tutor, the eldest princess had sent someone and requested to meet you, what do you think…" the dark guard hesitated as he spoke.
Xing Lou shot a fleeting gaze at the dark guard.
"I won't meet anyone who comes to visit."
