Chapter 445

Upon settling in the magistrate's residence, Shangguan Xuanyi left Yang Liu to take care of Xiao'er the next morning, while he headed alone to Kunlun Snow Mountain to harvest the soul-reviving grass.

Asking Magistrate Zhu, Mrs Wen, the wife of the Hemu County magistrate, inquired, "My lord, who exactly are the guests staying in our garden? Why are you treating them with such caution?"

Naturally, Zhu couldn't reveal the Sixth Prince's identity. He put on a stern face and said, "This isn't something you should inquire about, my dear. They are guests of high status. I wish you to supervise our servants and not let any mishap occur! Fulfill whatever their needs may be. They will depart in a few days, so for the time being, keep the servants at their posts to avoid any offense to these nobles. Understand?"

Listening to this, Mrs. Wen speculated, "Leaving in a few days? Where are they from? High-status people? Could they be coming from the Imperial Capital?"
