The talisman stood at the courtyard gate, making sure the old steward and those people had walked far away before returning, and along with Fu Lu, continued to stand by the guest hall door, allowing Lu Qing and the others inside to talk conveniently.
"That fragrance, I've smelled it in the palace before, not exactly the same, but very similar." Zhu Yu leaned close to Lu Qing's ear and spoke softly, "It was the time we went to the palace to meet the emperor, you went to the morning assembly, while I waited outside, I smelled it on one of the palace eunuchs.
The eunuch said he wasn't qualified to use incense, so the fragrance on him must have come from serving a noble in their palace.
Later, I also smelled that fragrance in the South Study Room."
Lu Qing listened to her words, his expression remained calm the entire time, seemingly not particularly surprised.
Or maybe because Lu Zhang and Lu Yan were sitting on the other side, he remained particularly restrained.
