Ye Qingxue said, "I can indeed provide a specific address. If Lord Pan wants to gain merit and save his family, he can send someone to investigate. Once it is confirmed that there are indeed stolen goods, Lord Pan can then go to the palace to inform the Emperor."
Pan Yuanzhou said, "The young lady who just went out is named Dongbai, right? Miss Ye provided the address and asked Miss Dongbai to take my men to investigate the stolen goods. It's getting late, so please stay at the mansion for the night, Miss Ye. When Miss Dongbai returns, I will personally send someone to take you back to the Ye family."
