The waiter forcefully controlled his trembling hands, placed the wine and dishes on the table for the guests, and then withdrew.
The waiter, having finished his business, said goodbye to the innkeeper and left.
He came to a dilapidated bulletin board in the town, searched for a while, and finally found a portrait with its edges slightly torn by the wind. He tore the portrait down directly.
The moment he tore down the portrait, someone appeared beside him and took him away.

The capital city of the Great Chu.
Su Ruojin frowned when she saw the note in her hand.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yanchu noticed Su Ruojin's expression.
"Yuan Hong appeared in Luoxing Town."
"Falling Star Town? If I remember correctly, the Kingdom of Howling Moon is just outside the town."
Who brought Yuan Hong to Xiaoyue Kingdom?
Yuan Hong has never been to Xiaoyue Kingdom in his life, so how could he be involved with that place?
"I'm going to go and see." Su Ruojin was worried and decided to go there herself to bring Yuan Hong back.
"I'll go with you."
"No, you are the Regent, and you have many things to do."
“Ah Jin, last time you went to Yunqi for so long, it was torture for me. I made up my mind then that after we got married, I would never be separated from you again.”
Everything is normal in Great Chu now, and there's nothing major happening on the border. I'll have Shen Yu keep an eye on things for me. If anything does happen, I'll rush back. Besides, with us together, I believe we can bring Yuan Hong back quickly; it won't cause any delays.”
Seeing that Xiao Yanchu insisted, Su Ruojin didn't say anything more.
"We'll set off tomorrow after we see Yi'er off."
Since Yuan Hong has already arrived in Luoxing Town, it means that the other party will not take his life for the time being, so he should be relatively safe.
Xiao Yanchu has already written to his master, and tomorrow is the day his master will come to the capital to pick up Yi'er.
"Yi'er is so young, how can you bear to send him there?"
Su Ruojin felt somewhat reluctant.
“He’ll be seven years old soon, he’s not a child anymore. Besides, his health has recovered. If we don’t send him to Qingyue Mountain, I’m afraid he’ll follow in my footsteps. A jade stone must be carved to become a gem. It’s time,” Xiao Yanchu insisted.
Su Ruojin stopped talking; she knew Xiao Yanchu was right.
He wanted to send Yi'er to Qingyue Mountain, so that, in addition to studying, she could temporarily escape the wrath of that mother and son in the palace.
When Xiao Bao found out, he didn't cry as Su Ruojin had expected.
Because Xiao Yanchu told Yi'er that only by going to Qingyue Mountain to study and becoming more powerful could she protect Sister Jin.
Upon hearing that it would allow her to better protect Sister Jin, Yi'er agreed almost without hesitation.
"Uncle, when Yi'er comes back, he will definitely be even more powerful. At that time, you won't be needed anymore. Yi'er will protect Sister Jin."
Xiao Yanchu:......
Su Ruojin suppressed a laugh, finding it quite amusing to watch Xiao Yanchu get his comeuppance.

When Su Ruojin saw Qin Buyu, the head of Qingyue Mountain, she was certain that this was the first time she had met Xiao Yanchu's master. However, Qin Buyu looked at her as if he were seeing a familiar old friend.
Upon seeing Qin Buyu, Xiao Yan immediately knelt down, saying, "Disciple greets Master."
Qin Buyu nodded. "Get up."
