章節 1161: Mother and Son

The City Lord returned to his courtyard and sat on the silent stone bench.

After the rain, there was a hint of coldness about Thousand Mountains Island.

The trusted steward had followed him for many years and was already familiar with his habits. He got someone to bring wine.

The City Lord did not drink. Instead, he slowly poured the wine to the ground.

A guard came to report, "City Lord, Elder Li requests an audience."

The mayor said, "Let him in."

Elder Li came to the courtyard and stopped opposite the City Lord. He cupped his hands and bowed. "City Lord."

The City Lord waved to his trusted steward to dispense with the ceremony.

The trusted steward understood and removed the wine. He also retreated.

"Have you been to the Hundred Flowers Palace?" asked the City Lord.
