Since arriving in the capital of Xifeng Kingdom, the most common thing Sang Yun and Sang Yan heard was: "Our Emperor went to the Crown Prince's residence to see the princess again. I heard that this princess is so beautiful that she is the emperor's favorite."

"Second Brother, is this princess the Fourth Sister?" Sang Yan asked Sang Yun.

Sang Yun nodded: "Yes, that should be it."

Sang Yan pursed her lips, and said with a hint of dejection, "Then, Fourth Sister, will the Princess forgive us?"

Sang Yan thought about everything Liu Furong and Sang Rui had done for Sang Jiang over the years and felt completely uncertain.

If she were Sang Jiang, she would never forgive this mother and daughter.

Sang Yun paused for a moment before speaking, "It doesn't matter. Even if Fourth Sister doesn't forgive me, I will still find her."

He called her "sister" differently from "princess" to Sang Yan, because in his heart Sang Jiang was still his fourth sister, not the princess of Xifeng Kingdom. No matter what the outcome, even if Sang Jiang did not forgive them, it was because they had things that were unforgivable. The main reason he made this trip was to find out how Sang Jiang was doing in Xifeng Kingdom.

Furthermore, Sang Jiang is a princess of Xifeng Kingdom, while they are important officials of Dongchen Kingdom. No matter how much the Xifeng Emperor dotes on Sang Jiang, he would never provoke a conflict between the two countries because of her emotions.

Therefore, whether the Prime Minister's residence will be shaken depends mainly on Long Jingchen. If it weren't for the need to counterbalance the Empress's power, how could Long Jingchen have allowed Sang Jiang to continue to expand her influence?

Sang Yan nodded worriedly, realizing that he clearly didn't understand the situation as well as she had imagined. "But where are we going to find Sang Jiang?"

Sang Yun sighed softly, "Let's find a place to stay and rest first."

“Mm.” Sang Jiang nodded.

...

Yang Mu'an stared at the two large characters "Imperial City" in front of him, slightly stunned.

She had actually reached the imperial city. Yang Mu'an paused for a moment, holding the reins, before continuing forward.

Although most of Yang Muchen's influence is in the capital, he may not necessarily expect to come to the capital himself. As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

She led her little red horse to an inn and checked in.

Yang Mu'an opened the window and saw a large crowd queuing up at a shop called Huai Feng Yue.

She couldn't help but curiously peek over there. It looked like a brothel. Why were there so many women there?

Just then, the waiter came in to bring her food, and Yang Mu'an stopped him and asked, "Waiter, I'd like to ask, what kind of place is Huaifengyue?"

The waiter looked in the direction she was pointing and said, "You mean that place? The brothel?"

"But why are there so many women?" Yang Mu'an asked, voicing his doubts.

The waiter suddenly realized: "Oh, that used to be a brothel, but it's been converted into a bar now. It sells cosmetics during the day and only opens at night."

"A bar?" Yang Mu'an frowned. "What's that?"

"Are you from out of town, young lady?"

"Uh." Yang Mu'an nodded.

The waiter's nod, as if to say "I knew it," only fueled Yang Mu'an's curiosity about Huai Fengyue.

"A bar is a place for drinking and dating, unlike other brothels. If you're curious, you can go and have a look. By the way, Huai Feng Yue's rouge and face powder are especially famous. People from many places travel long distances to buy them. Miss Liu is truly amazing."

The waiter's eyes lit up when he mentioned Miss Liu, which made Yang Mu'an even more curious about the Miss Yang he was talking about.
