At the entrance of the posthouse, Daohua watched as Xiao Yeyang was surrounded by attendants and boarded the carriage. It wasn't until the carriage and horses were out of sight that she turned around, feeling somewhat lost, holding the Jade Pendant and lowering her head as she walked toward the small courtyard where she lived.
Yan Wenxiu and a few others hurried to catch up.
Master Xiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurried to follow as well.
Heaven knows how anxious he was when he just received the news from a servant that some of the younger members of the Yan Family had gotten into a fight with the Prefectural Governor's son from Fanzhou.
Apparently, this Prefectural Governor from Fanzhou has some connection with the Provincial Governor, and if they had offended him, it would've been nearly impossible for Master Yan to consider ascending higher in his career.
Fortunately, it seemed that things were not as bad as he had imagined.
