Fang Zhou arrived outside the General Mansion and saw the streets bustling with traffic, luxury carriages lined up along the street.
They were all there to visit the General Mansion. Di Ao wasn't home, so these people were waiting outside, some having waited an entire day just to meet Di Ao, and they might even leave without seeing her.
This was the current power of Di Ao, commanding authority in the court every day, receiving officials at home; the entire Chu Kingdom was almost under her control.
Fang Zhou strolled around the General Mansion perimeter, and after a walk, he entered a nearby tea house and requested a window seat.
He wore a mask, drawing several curious gazes, but no one came up to disturb him.
