In the Capital city, many noble and influential families were aware of the Bureau of the Lamp's activities.
In the current situation where the entire Bureau of the Lamp was frantically searching for the whereabouts of the crown prince, they dared not show themselves.
Once they did, if they were suspected by the Bureau's constables of being related to the crown prince and had their homes raided, they would have nowhere to cry.
Family after family, the doors were tightly shut.
Some sons of influential families, who would occasionally cause trouble, were now confined to their homes, until the imperial festival, this tense atmosphere would likely shroud the heads of the noble families.
Cheng Guang was unaware of the Bureau of the Lamp's actions.
He also did not know what kind of confinement the Queen of the South Ming was under at Cheng Zhihai's hands.
