Bab 42: Catching Your Eyes

The Great Zhou Royal Palace, Essence Containment Hall, was filled with guests. This was the place where the Emperor often invited distinguished guests for events.

However, this time, it was different from the court officials that were usually invited. The people who came were all young and influential people.

Compared to the elderly courtiers, these youths, no matter how they usually were, were all rather nervous at this moment. All of them sat upright and looked straight ahead. This was the first time many of them had attended such an occasion.

It was also Su Wen's first time, but compared to others, he looked much more relaxed. Everyone else was kneeling down, but this fellow seemed to be sitting cross-legged, as though he was in his own room. He took the apple from the plate in front of him and started munching on it, looking around from time to time.
