After the Chen Nation's diplomatic mission left the palace, they took a carriage back to the guest house specially arranged for them by the Honglu Temple.
Han Chengxi sat down at the table and took out a small note from his sleeve.
During the day, the Second Prince and the Sixth Prince went out of the city to welcome the Chen Nation's diplomatic mission. The Sixth Prince, Shen Rui, secretly stuffed a note into Han Chengxi's hand when no one was paying attention.
There were only five words on the note:
See you tonight at midnight.
It was almost midnight. Han Chengxi placed the note above the candle and let the flame devour it.
Soon the note turned to ashes.
There was a knock on the door and the voice of the attendant barged through it.
"Your Highness, we have a visitor."
Han Chengxi thought that he was quite punctual.
