Someone's relative, on a certain day, saw the majestic Imperial Guards at the entrance of the annex.
Some lucky family was granted permission to deliver firewood and vegetables to the annex, entering the magnificent and charming rear garden.
A child from a certain family was chosen by the housekeeper nurse from the palace to do odd jobs at the annex.
Sweeping the courtyard, assisting in the kitchen, washing clothes, and washing vegetables, they didn't complain about the workload and even earned some pocket money to support their family.
The villagers talked passionately and enthusiastically about their encounters.
However, they never could have imagined that the royal figures they were referring to were not residing in the luxurious annex but were actually hiding amongst them.
Accompanied by two Imperial Shadow Guards, Jifeng and Jiyu, they changed their identities and hid discreetly in Su Hu's small courtyard.
