"Xuan An, what has His Majesty been up to while I have not been at the palace?" Chu Yu slowly strolled through the palace grounds, walking and speaking to Xuan An by her side.
Xuan An was a eunuch who personally served Liu Ziyue and was often sent to lead Chu Yu through the palace. In fact, having visited the palace so many times, Chu Yu had already committed the necessary routes to memory. Now, the role of Xuan An was less about guiding the way and more about maintaining appearances and providing company for conversation.
Seizing the opportunities to lead the way, Chu Yu had given Xuan An a few favors. Over time, this clever little eunuch came to understand her intentions, and without Chu Yu having to ask, he would lower his eyes and selectively report on Liu Ziyue's every word and action.
