The group entered a small courtyard separately arranged within the post station. Neither Hua Wushuang nor Wufu lacked money or people, so, even though it was within the post station, the courtyard was exquisitely arranged by the servants.
Wufu meant that since they had traveled a long way, both by water and land, and with a child in tow, they were not in a hurry to reach their destination despite the arduous journey. It was not too late to rest for two days at the post station before slowly entering the city.
"...Ah Jiu was supposed to come to greet you, but he is currently monitoring the state affairs, with plenty of tasks overwhelming him," Wufu apologized.
Hua Wushuang said, "It's alright, there will always be a time for reunion." After pausing, Hua asked in a low voice, "Is the Emperor Yan in poor health?"
Wufu nodded, lowering her voice further, "It's just holding on day by day."
