The only building on the hill was the Imperial Palace. The palace was so large that it occupied almost all of the hillside, but the atmosphere was much quieter than the one in Chang City.
Even the light inside the palace wasn't very bright, and one could even say the overall atmosphere inside the palace was quite dim.
There were many red lanterns placed in front of every building in the palace because it was the Lantern Festival tonight, but they were still not enough to beat the brightness of Chang City.
It had been like that in the Imperial Palace all those years ago, and that was why Xia Qiao didn't look surprised when she could feel the serenity in the palace. Even if there was an event in the palace tonight, it could not compare to the liveliness in Chang City.
In the past, she even questioned her father about it during the Lantern Festival.
