The next day
The streets and alleys of the Capital were abuzz with what had happened last night in front of Qinger Building.
Zhang San, the instigator of the incident, ended up as a supporting player, while Prince Pu, who had not shown his face, became the center of controversy.
Whether it was common folk or high-ranking nobility, everyone despised his actions: buying off thugs like Zhang San for business dealings in a brothel, not caring about his status, and bringing shame upon the Royal Family.
Prince Pu's Mansion
Early in the morning, the steward went out for shopping and heard all the rumors around town. He could no longer focus on shopping, hurried back to Prince Pu's Mansion, and reported everything to Prince Pu.
While Prince Pu was having breakfast with Princess Consort Pu, he heard the news and became furious: "How can this be? Who is spreading these rumors?"
"Your Highness, it seems to be a thug named Zhang San."
