Hu Feng’s face was full of curiosity. What was he saying? What mystery within a mystery?
Dongfang Mu told the story about how he encountered Bai Zhi in Qi City, and also told the evil things Pei Qinghan did. After hearing the stories, Hu Feng became so angry and almost went crazy. But then, he smiled later on.
Hu Feng busily asked: “So, Bai Zhi and my father are both here?”
Dongfang Mu nodded: “Yes, they are all here.”
Zhou Gang was also very excited: “Is Xiaofeng also here?”
Dongfang Mu nodded his head again and cheerfully said: “Yes, a little girl named Ru’er is also here.”
Zhou Gang and Zhou Awu couldn’t help but hug each other and jumped in happiness. The smile on their face almost reached their ears. They were very worried about where to find them. Unexpectedly, they were right in front of them.
Hu Feng anxiously asked Dongfang Mu: “Where are they now? Why don’t you let them out?”
Dongfang Mu smiled and said: “They are not here. Wan’er is so happy today that she drags them out, saying that she will buy them new clothes, eat outside and watch opera shows.”
Hu Feng has been thinking of Bai Zhi and Hu Changlin, so he doesn’t have the heart to stay in the Dongfang Family Mansion. He said to Dongfang Mu: “Master, I will look for them.”Dongfang Mu waved his hand: “Go, you go and find them. Remember to come back early. Let’s have a good drink.”
Dongfang Family Mansion was not too far from the downtown area. The four men simply left their horses and walked in there. On the way, they went to the teahouses, restaurants, cloth shops, and opera houses, but they didn’t encounter the people they were looking for.
Zhou Gang said to Hu Feng: “Your royal highness, the capital is so big. If we look for them like this, we may not be able to find them until dark. Let’s find out which cloth shop is the best, where the ladies and young ladies love to go, and the best restaurant. We might be able to find them earlier by then.”
Hu Feng nodded his head: “It’s reasonable, go and inquire quickly.”
The three men acted separately and gathered back to Hu Feng’s side after inquiring.
Zhou Gang said: “I heard that Tianyi Pavilion is the best embroidery workshop in capital. All the ladies and young ladies of noble families love to go in there to buy clothes.”
Fu Zheng said: “The Bainia Pavilion is said to be the best opera house in the capital.”
Zhou Awu said: “It turns out that there is also the Diners Restaurant in the capital, but they said that the best restaurant here is Zuixian Restaurant, and the Diners Restaurant is only second rank.”
Hu Feng waved his hand: “This hour is not the time to eat. The opera shows usually start in the afternoon. At this hour, they should be in the Tianyi Pavilion. Let’s go in there first.”

In the Tianyi Pavilion
Dongfang Wan hadn’t been to Tianyi Pavilion for more than 10 years. But before she married Pei Qinghan, she was also a frequent visitor here. Today, the Tianyi Pavilion was much larger than before.
The staff who came out to welcome the guests didn’t know Dongfang Wan. Cui’er, who was standing on the side, busily reported her milady’s identity to staff.
When the staff heard that it was the young lady from the Dongfang family, his face was immediately filled with a flattering smile: “It turns out to be Miss Dongfang, please go upstairs.”
When they went upstairs, the people downstairs began to gossip again.
“That is Miss Dongfang who married into the Changyuan Houfu?”
“It should be. There is only one lady in the Dongfang family. If it’s not her, then who is it? But it’s strange. Since she married into the Changyuan Houfu, why she still calls herself Miss Dongfang? What does she mean?”
“We don’t know what she means, but I’m sure it be lively here soon. Have you forgotten about it? Madam Xiang from the Changyuan Houfu also took the eldest young miss and second young miss upstairs. It’s worth watching the show.”
