Not far away on the rooftop, a shadow quickly departed, heading straight for Weiyang Palace.
Leaving all this behind.
The defense of Weiyang Palace was very strict, not only for the main hall, but the guards for the side halls were somewhat lax, and those watching the side halls had even dozed off.
The guards were completely unaware as a figure clad in black quietly entered the side hall's sleeping chambers.
Chu Yu's eyes grew cold: if it weren't for Yun Jinnian having to stay in the palace longer and needing the Empress's care, he would have sought an audience with the Empress to question her: was this how she treated a guest who had been brought into the palace by the Phoenix Carriage?
In the corner, a dimly lit oil lamp kept the sleeping chamber from being pitch-black.
On the large bed, Yun Jinnian was sleeping soundly on his side, hands joined and nestled under his face.
