The Daxuan Palace, with its red walls and yellow tiles, glowed with golden splendor.
Originally, outside the palace stood numerous towering ancient trees and a dense canopy of greenery. However, for the safety of the palace, they had all been felled.
At this moment, in the waiting hall outside the palace, Sword Body Hong Yuan watched the young eunuch hasten away and waited silently.
The waiting hall featured a clear pond, its surface dotted with lotus flowers. The movement of carp swimming beneath created gentle ripples, stunningly beautiful under the starlight.
Hong Yuan stood quietly in the hall, observing these swimming carp, his mind contemplating matters.
He was clad in a blue robe, his face handsome and elegant, his demeanor gentle. Behind him, the young palace maids could not help but steal glances at him.
