"Hmm."
Wen Shu steadied herself and looked through the gap in the curtain at the resplendent Royal Palace under the setting sun.
In front of the tall palace gate, the elegantly dressed nobility were gradually passing the guard checks, heading towards the banquet venue.
"Wu Xuan," after carefully observing, Wen Shu pointed to the tree at the back lawn of the Royal Palace, which had a shallow mark carved on it, "wait for us there, transform into your beast form, and be ready to leave at any moment."
As night fell, Wen Shu and Nan entered the lively garden, and the conspicuous black dress drew the nobles' attention, with several trying to engage them in conversation.
Nan dispelled the crowd one by one, protecting Wen Shu as they took a seat by the white porcelain table in the corner.
Sweeping her gaze across the surroundings, Queen Niss had yet to arrive, but Wen Shu already saw Bai Qiao near the main seat, conversing with her several Beast Husbands.
