The cannon fodder heiress trembled with fear after being recognized as a member of her family.

Han Cuiyin's face returned to its appearance in Yanjiacun.

She made quite a stir in Pinglianjiang, and her dark complexion was even more eye-catching than when she was fair-skinned.

With Changjizhai destroyed, some well-informed merchants immediately loaded their merchant ships with goods, preparing to sail from the river to the sea.

Having been terrified of being robbed by Changjizhai in the past, they wouldn't easily enter Pinglianjiang without absolute certainty.

The imperial court also organized several campaigns to suppress bandits, but those people came and went without a trace, and it was impossible to eradicate them completely.

This time, the imperial court dispatched 5,000 soldiers to raid their stronghold and also brought down a considerable amount of grain.

It is said that the other gold and silver were moved by the former chieftain and their whereabouts are unknown.

Some say that two unparalleled masters fought in their lair, destroying everything.

In short, there are many different opinions, all of which are rumors, and the government has not posted any notices.

Previously, when they were on the Han family's ship, they were going to stay in Changle County for a few days.

Changle County is different from Changxing County.

There is the Pinglian Mountain Range in Changxing County, which produces many good things, such as precious medicinal herbs and rare furs, which can be bought almost anywhere in Changxing County.

But Chang Le County is different.

There is an inlet here, and many merchants who want to go out to sea have to go through here.

Merchants come and go in an endless stream; the commerce here is more prosperous than that of Changxing County.

While on the ship, Granny Wang mentioned that she wanted to buy some things for Princess Mingxia.

Han Song initially didn't want to stay, but ultimately compromised.

Chang Le County has many overseas goods, which are in high demand in the Daye Dynasty.

The life-sized glass mirror in Princess Mingxia's room was purchased from here.

She was unique in the capital; even Princess Jinghe didn't have one.

Every year in the sixth month of the lunar calendar, nobles in the capital would send their servants to wait here.

The merchant ships that went to sea also returned to the Great Ye Dynasty this month.

If you're lucky enough to excel and buy a unique item, you'll be rewarded with a year's worth of monthly salary.

Everyone considers this a lucrative job.

Even worse, some people fight tooth and nail in private to get here, but no one makes these things public.

She knew these things in her previous life.

In her previous life, when she first entered the capital, she was known as a young lady from the Han family, but her true identity had already been widely known.

Whenever I attend a flower-viewing banquet or similar event, I always get excluded.

Sometimes when she got really bored, she would go to the group of maids. Anyway, the fabric of her clothes wasn't very good, so no one would recognize her.

She openly inquired about interesting stories from various prefectures.

Most of those maids were tight-lipped, but they were very well-informed. They might not talk about things in their own household, but they had no such scruples about other people's households.

Han Cuiyin mingled among the maids in various households and learned a lot of private matters.

Before the affair was exposed, she used these secrets to blackmail many girls and finally gained access to their circle.

However, she only showed her cleverness this once.

This method was learned from an old lady in Yanjia Village.

The methods may seem unethical, but they are effective.

This time, however, it's different.

Her dark complexion attracts attention wherever she goes.

Because of her beauty in her past life, she could easily disguise herself so that the maids wouldn't suspect anything.

If she went to the capital with this face, her dark complexion would spread throughout the backyards of all the wealthy and powerful families in the capital in less than an afternoon.

It's completely impossible to hear any more secrets about the various prefectures.

She really lost a lot of money in the Pinglian River area.

The Sun Flame she had painstakingly cultivated for ten months was completely dissipated in one day, causing problems with her health.

Normally, it would take about a year for a black face to recover its original appearance, but now it has to start all over again.

Now that she looks like this, how can she compete with Princess Mingxia? How can she find her mother?

Han Zhen would never treat her differently as he did in his previous life.

For at least a year, she will find it difficult to move an inch in the capital.

Wherever he goes, he becomes the center of attention.

She cannot fight with anyone for a year. According to Qingyun, she is a paper tiger, easily burned.

Han Cuiyin entered the city with worries on her mind.

Her biggest concern now is how to establish herself in the capital and how she and her daughter can extricate themselves from the Han family unscathed after finding Yan Shunhua.

Wearing a veiled hat, Han Cuiyin was overjoyed to see the lively atmosphere on the street through the thin veil, and temporarily put aside her troubles.

The clothes she had brought from Yanjiacun were tattered and burned, and the ones she was wearing now were ones that Han Song had bought for her.

Once she arrives in the capital, things will not be peaceful; she needs to prepare in advance.

The people of Daye Dynasty were open-minded, and it was rare for young women from wealthy families to wear veils when they went out.

Han Cuiyin's outfit drew even more attention.

She noticed this too, and quickly found a clothing shop to buy a few ordinary clothes.

After arriving in the capital, Princess Mingxia will surely give her a hard time.

Due to the inherent suppression imposed by her social status, she could not resist anything.

Furthermore, since she was still at her weakest point and couldn't act rashly, she decided to strike first.

In their previous life, they also stayed in Chang Le County. At that time, Granny Wang brought back a set of gemstone jewelry for Princess Mingxia, and received a great reward.

That night, Granny Wang plotted against her, so she should at least return the favor.

Not only do they want to get revenge on Granny Wang, but they also want to make Princess Mingxia lose face.

Princess Mingxia is of noble status, and there are those who can rival her, but they simply disdain to do so.

Back then, she stole someone else's husband, and behind her back, she had become a laughing stock.

This time, I'll think about it carefully. I'll make enemies of Princess Mingxia and keep this person busy so that he won't bother her every day.

During the day, she still wanted the Sunfire and Purple Qi, but she was always being watched, which was quite inconvenient.

“Young lady, these are clothes that only old women wear. They’re not suitable for someone as young as you! Why don’t you take a look at our clothes? They’re brightly colored and made of ordinary cotton, so they don’t cost much.”

The female receptionist tried her best to dissuade Han Cuiyin from putting down her dusty clothes.

"I want these two. Look at my face, are you sure it won't scare me if I wear bright clothes?"

Han Cuiyin pulled off her veil and made a face at the female receptionist.

"My God! Is it a person or that thing?"

The commotion drew the attention of other customers in the store.

"It's so dark!"

"Is this the Miss Yang that the Han family is looking for?"

Han Cuiyin's physical characteristics were no secret in Chang Le County.

Her darker complexion was unique.

Han Song has already announced that the first person to find Han Cuiyin will receive a reward.

A tall woman reacted the fastest; after putting a veil on Han Cuiyin, she grabbed her and ran.

"Miss Yang, Manager Han has been looking for you. Come with me quickly!"

In order to earn a reward, she simply carried Han Cuiyin on her back and ran all the way to the Guest Inn.

This woman was also quite famous in Chang Le County, but only for her fearsome reputation, and for a time no one dared to stop her.

Originally, Han Cuiyin was about to intervene, but upon hearing Steward Han's words, she simply went with the flow and let the woman run.

A guest has arrived at the inn.

"Go quickly and tell Steward Han that I've brought Miss Yang, whom he's been looking for, to him."

"Widow Gao, are you sure? Don't make another blunder."

“I’m sure. I’ve never seen anyone darker-skinned than this girl. Her surname is Yang, and she just entered the city today.”
