Upon his immediate return to Jing City, Yan Junyu eagerly selected two baskets of fruit to be delivered to the Empress Dowager and Emperor Huian, all in preparation to slap the Agricultural Politics Department in the face at the court session tomorrow.
That night, after Yan Junyu finished with his affairs and was about to call someone in to help him relax and loosen his clothing, the sudden sound of knocking at the door echoed, followed swiftly by Guan Yu's voice: "My lord, Princely Heir Xiao has arrived and is waiting for you at the lakeside pavilion."
A hint of curiosity flickered through Yan Junyu's beautiful, arching eyebrows, and he picked up the Jade Bone Fan from the table and made his way to the lakeside pavilion.
The cold moonlight silently bathed the still, waveless lake, adding a touch of solitude to the scene.
