Uninvited guests

The place that had been prepared was a large courtyard that was quite well decorated, showing that this was quite the expensive place to buy or rent.

It showed that they put quite a bit of emphasis on Lin Fan as the envoy of the Mu Empire.

It showed that they were filled with respect towards him.

So Lin Fan didn't say anything as he headed into the courtyard with Duanmu Ming Xue.

As for the guards, they stood around the perimeter of the courtyard as if they were planning on standing guard all night.

As Lin Fan headed in, the captain said, "Sir envoy, please rest well. We'll make sure that nothing disturbs your rest."

Since he said this, it was clear that this guard captain and the rest of his men were planning to stand guard outside the courtyard all night.

If it wasn't for the fact that they had been so respectful, Lin Fan might have even suspected that they were doing this to trap him, to make sure that he wouldn't be able to escape.
