On the day when the old Duke returned to the Capital City unobtrusively, Yan Huisheng received the news and personally went out of the city to welcome him.
It was snowing heavily in the Capital City that day.
Not many people were going in and out of the city gates, carriages parked for an hour were covered in a thick layer of snow, and the soldiers guarding the city were also covered in snow.
The old Duke had excellent eyesight and he asked his trusted aide beside him: "Is that the carriage from the Eastern Palace?"
He had told the Crown Prince that he would return in a few days, but he had not specified the exact day.
His aide carefully identified and then nodded affirmatively, "In response to the old Duke, it is indeed the carriage from the Eastern Palace. It appears the Crown Prince has received news of your return to the city and has personally come to receive you."
The old Duke nodded.
