Chapter 723 Departure

The light rain was blowing in the wind, and the sky was gray in the damp morning. The light was not very bright, and the palace, the grass and the trees seemed to have a dull color. The people in the palace followed the sound of the bells and drums and determined that it was sunrise. Over at Fengtian Gate, the emperor, who had come from the land of gentleness, must be receiving the worship of officials. The rain did not affect the morning court, but people were allowed to wear raincoats and perform the ceremony in the brick square outside Fengtian Gate in the rain.
