Returning To The Capital

As night fell, the courier station was also shrouded in infinite darkness.

In the darkness of the night, a thin figure carried a food container and walked to the back courtyard where the prisoners were being kept.

When the guard saw someone approaching, he went forward warily and hollered, "Who is it? Don't come close."

Zhou Xiangrong raised her head and said, "The Empress told me to bring them food. Her Imperial Highness said that she would be bringing them back to be punished. Before that, they must not starve to death."

Zhou Xiangrong had been traveling in the same horse carriage as Su Ying for the past few days. The guard knew that Su Ying trusted her, so he didn't think too much about it and let Zhou Xiangrong go past him straightaway.

Zhou Xiangrong first distributed the food in the food container to the other prison carts before finally coming to Wei Zhongming.
