A temporary pavilion was built at the top of Tiger Mountain. bamboo curtains hung down on the four sides of the pavilion, and many guards stood around.
When Xiao Juan appeared with his men, a guard immediately stopped them.
"The empress will only let Xiao Juan in."
Xiao Juan instructed the Eagle Guards following behind, "Wait here."
"Yes!"
The Eagle Guards took two steps back in unison. Seeing this, the guard turned around and gestured. "Her Majesty is inside. Please come in."
Xiao Juan bought the steps and the palace maid standing at the side rolled up the bamboo curtain.
In the pavilion, a gorgeous woman was leaning against a soft couch. She was wearing an exquisite palace dress with a white background and gold. Her long skirt fell to the ground along the edge of the couch. Her black hair was curled high on her head, decorated by golden hairpins.
She was the former Princess Tao Ran and the current empress of the Chen Nation.
