Bab 507: Black Command Token Appears!

Feng Jiu looked askance at them, "This Young Master is looking for the one in charge here." While speaking, she handed over a command token.

When the guard saw the token, his eyes shrank. He took it at once with both hands and respectfully told her, "Come in, Young Master . I'll report to my superior immediately."

One man quickly took the token to report to the steward, while the other took them inside. After bringing them to the people inside, the guard withdrew. The people inside took them to the hall and served them tea and pastries.

The steward was chatting with two middle-aged men in the side room. When he heard a knock at the door, he scolded, "You have no eyes! Don't you know I'm hosting distinguished guests?"

The sound of knocking on the door outside paused and the guard hesitated a bit. Nevertheless, he made the report, "Steward, someone came to see you with a black market command token."
