As soon as Lucian's group exited the private room, they were greeted by Commander Han Yu.
"Young Master, madams," Han Yu gave a fist salute, then asked, "Do you want to use the carriage to return to Her Majesty's Palace?"
Lucian looked around and saw that there were ten Nascent Soul Royal Guards who were standing in a protective formation around them.
When Lucian left the Imperial Palace, he had already sensed these Royal Guards were following them.
Although it looked like they were protecting him and his women, he was sure it was more like these guards were making sure no one offended him along the way.
And he could easily guess the reason.
The Emperor was wary of him, thinking he might be connected to that mysterious burning figure that killed Qi Ye.
It was obvious that Emperor Ji Chunqiu didn't want any conflicts to occur before he could figure out Lucian's background.
