There, a nine-story tower stood.
The Prime Minister's Mansion's library tower.
And the woman waiting on the shore was the servant from within the library tower, who had also been the personal maid of his late mother.
Third Grade Great Grandmaster.
Xu Yuan took the towel, nodded with a smile, and said,
"Mhm."
The woman smiled gently, handing the umbrella to Xu Yuan, and bowed slightly,
"The Prime Minister is waiting for you in the inner court, so I shall take my leave first."
Having said this, the woman walked towards the library tower, braving the rain along the lake's edge.
Watching the figure depart, Xu Yuan shook his head, propping up the umbrella and wiping his hair with the towel as he walked towards the inner court.
