The matter of Marquis Wu'an and the Lord of Hua Ying Palace being on good terms is well-known within both the court and the common populace. It's an old friendship built from humble beginnings.
It isn't Jiang Wang's first visit to Hua Ying Palace.
However, visiting deep into the night is indeed a first.
Compared to the grandeur and clarity of the Long Life Palace, the architectural style of Hua Ying Palace is relatively more imposing, exuding a heroic aura. They often use weaponry as decoration, hanging armor and longbows, with scarcely any ornamental flowers or plants.
If they plant anything, it's trees that can be used to make spears, bows, or beams for construction.
Standing as proudly as the guards on watch.
Walking through Hua Ying Palace, led by a silver-haired old woman, each guard and maid exudes a military demeanor, meticulous in every word and action, even their salutes are rigid and proper.
