The two horses led the way, followed by a carriage. Behind them was the escort team. The group stopped at the end of Xiagou Village.

This time, it was Eunuch Deng who was sent by Emperor Chong'an to deliver the imperial edict. As soon as he took out the imperial edict, everyone quickly knelt down with the Song family.

Song Jingchen suppressed the surging hatred in his heart and lowered his eyes. "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Young Master Song, you can't disappoint His Majesty," Eunuch Deng said.
Song Jingchen nodded. "Of course. Since you've been on the road, why don't you have a cup of tea at my humble abode?"
