"Yes, yes." Xue Wuhu nodded, his face full of anticipation.
Fu Ying looked at him and was unable to reject him as she usually did. She thought that it would be good to let him leave the palace. If he was Fu Xu's man, then he might have exposed something a long time ago. She said, "Remember to wear the mask."
"You're agreeing?!" Xue Wuhu was extremely surprised and jumped up. "Okay, okay, okay. I'll wear that mask! Definitely! Thank you! Then I'll be leaving!"
With that, he carried the flag and dashed out.
He planned to leave the palace after he had placed the flag properly.
Originally, there were no more guards following Xue Wuhu every day, but now that Xue Wuhu was about to leave the palace, regardless of whether it was to protect Xue Wuhu's safety or for any other reason, two more guards followed him. Those two guards were the same as Xue Wuhu, they had changed into ordinary clothes before leaving the palace.
