As Feng Yun had speculated, it didn't take more than three days before someone from the Central Capital arrived.
The decree was delivered by an unfamiliar little eunuch, who passed through Huaxi Village and attracted quite a bit of attention.
The little eunuch took Wei Zheng and a group of Imperial Guards away with him, without specifying how they would be dealt with, saying that it would be decided upon their return to the capital.
Wei Zheng took Shao Xueqing and Luo Yue away with him.
Concubines rewarded by the Great General, no matter if others gossiped, had to swallow their words and keep them close by obediently.
Especially Luo Yue, these days, she secretly brought him food and drink, accompanied him in the hardships of working in the fields, took him to play in the waters of Huaxi catching fish, told him anecdotes he had never heard before, and played some "wild fun" he wouldn't even dare to imagine, which greatly comforted him during the difficult "farming years."
