On the streets, rooftops, and inside shops... Tri-Color Flags and Rose Sword Banners, symbols of the Royal Family, were everywhere, contributing to the joyful atmosphere.
The Royal Palace was, naturally, out of the ordinary—every corner was freshly cleaned, bright red roses bloomed passionately, and every employee walking by wore a look of happiness on their face.
"Your Highness!"
"Good day, sir!"
…
Upon seeing Huangfu Jue ascend the stairs, all the employees stopped respectfully and greeted him.
The man, who was always cold and taciturn, nodded from time to time, and even responded proactively on two occasions.
"Morning!"
"Good!"
Though these were simple words, they already revealed his good mood.
The new clerk working at the Royal Palace could not believe that her greeting had elicited a response from him. In her excitement, the documents in her hands slipped to the floor.
