Pei Hanze strongly approved of his action, "You did the right thing. Remember, the safety of the common people always comes first, no matter what."

It was just that the items needed were somewhat difficult to obtain.
That night, after everyone had gone to sleep, Pei Huaian left quietly with a few Hidden Guards to gather all the necessary herbs.
Because he was so worried about the children, he left in such a hurry that he failed to notice a branch on the roadside stirring in the wind, making a slight noise.
A man in a black robe stood still, his gaze fixed in the direction Pei Huaian had left.
