"I need someone to drive the carriage."
"Will you do it?"
Su Chen looked at Chen Xuan, who had been watching him with a complex expression.
Chen Xuan looked the same as always.
Blue Robe.
He faintly resembled the awkward figure of the Purple-robed Thousand Years in his youth.
"Alright!"
Chen Xuan nodded.
He didn't ask Su Chen where they were going or why. He simply found a carriage, helped Su Chen aboard, and made to depart.
As they passed the Palace Gate,
Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment before speaking to Su Chen.
"Lord Sword Immortal, may I go and say goodbye to my friend first?"
"He's an Imperial Physician."
"He's the only person in the palace I really get along with."
"I don't know how long we'll be gone..."
Chen Xuan went.
But he returned, disappointed.
He hadn't been able to find his friend, the Imperial Physician, to say a proper goodbye.
The carriage set off.
Slowly, leisurely, it passed through the city gate.
「In the Imperial Palace.」
