During fall, even the trees and flowers shed their leaves.
A servant girl was slowly sweeping the leaves away with a broom.
Lu Sheng did not go far. He merely returned to his own room.
He did not go to the Moon Prince's bedroom, nor did he go and pack up his things. He sat on a chair and leaned back as he watched the plants swaying in the wind in the courtyard outside.
After waiting for some time, there was a wail from beyond the garden.
Lu Sheng did not budge. He stayed on the chair. Then, he heard the wails of the guards outside.
However, he believed that Little Rong would not let him down.
Soon enough, hurried footsteps closed in on the garden. Just when they approached the door of the garden, the footsteps vanished.
Everything was calm again.
