Chaoyan did not need to worry about what was going to happen in the court. There was always some way out, and they had Shadow Door stationed there.
Zhou Huaijin let out a sigh of relief.

The following day… people from the court arrived. It was De Fu who came to meet her.
He was no longer wearing the vicious expression when he met her. Instead, he looked much more gentle.
When Gu Chaoyan and Sword One came out, De Fu even glanced at the things they had prepared. It was snowing in June, so it was cold and chilly, thick clothes were necessary.
So De Fu gave them a reminder.
He thought that a smart person like Gu Chaoyan would understand what he meant, so she had everything prepared. He could have ignored the help she needed. Also, he had two minor eunuchs who might help them to carry stuff, but…
He saw that she had prepared nothing, and the maid had only a few clothes with them. That would not be enough.
