Thus, Marquis Di and Eunuch Xiao walked and chatted leisurely at the front, while Liu Sisi followed silently far behind, not uttering a word.
Fortunately, after passing through the long corridor and turning past the shadow wall, they arrived at the mansion's gate of the Marquis Mansion.
Since Eunuch Xiao was there today to deliver the Imperial Decree with His Majesty's rewards and oral message, Liu Sisi had specially ordered the central doors to be opened wide to respectfully send off Eunuch Xiao.
Eunuch Xiao, cunning from years of experience, soon bid farewell to the two and left on his horse.
As for what he would report to His Majesty after returning to the palace, that was another matter altogether.
No sooner had Eunuch Xiao left than Liu Sisi turned her head and departed without another word, not even casting a glance at Di Yelei.
