Outside the door stood several government officials, led by a middle-aged man in a bright red official robe with a square face.
These guards used to work for Xiao Yi, so they had some experience. One of them quickly recognized the man outside and immediately saluted, saying, "I've met Mr. Yao. May I ask what brings you here, Mr. Yao?"
The visitor was indeed one of the two Capital City Governors of the Western Capital—Yao Wangzhi!
The guard spoke while subtly observing the man in front of him.
As it turns out, the Holy Emperor had previously ordered Miss Xu to become an external advisor for the Western Capital Prefecture. Could it be that Mr. Yao was here to ask Miss Xu for help with an investigation?
However, Mr. Yao's stern and serious expression didn't quite match that notion.
Mr. Yao pressed his lips together and said, "I have an important matter to discuss with Miss Xu. Could you please ask her to come out?"
