As it warmed, more people filled the streets. Xuemei had walked between the Prince Manor and the Lin family's residence three times searching for the missing purse but still had not found it.

A horse carriage was passing on the street, and the word "Duan" on it signified that it belonged to Prince Duan's Manor.
Nanny Luo, who was following the carriage closely, spotted Xuemei looking for something on the ground. At first glance, she didn't think much of it, but when she looked away, a shock hit her heart.
That's Xuemei, the companion of the Regent King's Consort! She quickly informed the people in the carriage, "Your Highness, I have found Miss Xuemei!"
