Everything at Chene Palace was as usual. Serving the Empress was the most important affair, and Yuan Geng's people had an additional task, which was to capture the frogs in the pond. Hui Shan personally led the team, not only his own men but also those left by Ju Nanyi from Prince Duan's Mansion, who were not to be wasted.
Hui Shan suddenly stopped in his tracks, and the next moment, he knelt down as if he had seen a ghost, staring at the shadow in front of him.
"The Emperor—" Are you here to enjoy the cool air, wandering in the garden?
Although they had been on guard for many days, they had never encountered such a scenario, but that was the only explanation they could muster.
Zheng Congyuan's foot paused, looking at the guard wearing rain boots and carrying a net bag, guessed what these men were off to do. Indeed, a few frog calls reached his ears.
