This was also the reason for the increased security in the Imperial City.
After Guan Chu finished reading, he returned the invitation. His expression grew calm as he said coolly,
"Let them pass."
The tall woman in the white-veiled cloak sat inside a sedan chair, following the merchant caravan as it slowly entered the city.
"Thank you, General."
The tall woman expressed her thanks and re-entered the carriage.
"Wait."
Guan Chu watched the carriage recede into the distance and suddenly called out.
"Is there anything else, General?"
The tall woman lifted the curtain and asked, puzzled.
Her placid eyes were incredibly profound, as if they were reflective.
"What is your name?"
Out of an abundance of caution, Guan Chu asked one more question.
"Chu Buyu."
Receiving her answer, Guan Chu nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand. "Go on."
The carriage departed.
