A luxurious flying boat pierced the sky, descending beside a city at the border of Zhao Country.
The flying boat was a dark cyan color. Although the insignia on the side was covered, dark cyan was the color of the Great Tang Imperial Family. By observing the boat's design and the dragon pattern on the prow, anyone with a bit of knowledge would know it was the Great Tang Imperial Family's flying boat.
Several dozen people disembarked from the flying boat, surrounding a young master in luxurious attire at the center. Although the young master wore civilian colors, the fabric was extraordinarily exquisite. He was none other than Zhou Houli, the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites, who had received an imperial secret mission to leave the capital.
He surveyed his surroundings and smiled, saying, "On this mission out of the capital, I've traveled low-key and finally arrived smoothly. We'll leave the boat here and take a carriage, heading to Qingming by land!"
