A few days later, early in the morning, a carriage bearing the Fang Family insignia departed from the Fang Mansion, heading out of the city along the bluestone street.
Inside the carriage, Fang Han rested with his eyes closed, a mission letter in hand.
That morning, just as he arrived at the Martial Arts Room, he had been summoned by Elder Fang Yuan, who gave him the mission letter.
The mission letter simply stated, "Assist with matters at the Medicinal Garden," but offered no further details.
After leaving the city gates, the carriage traveled along the main road for about an hour before turning onto a side road. A short while later, a vast, high-walled garden came into view.
A rich, medicinal aroma filled the air, invigorating the senses.
"Young Master Han, we've arrived at the Medicinal Garden."
The driver respectfully lifted the carriage curtain.
