Chapter Fifty-Six: A Long-Dead Prince

Emilian had to stop twice to ask directions, but luckily everyone in Blossom City seemed to know the location of the Pang Mansion.  When he arrived at the surprisingly modest facade, he dismounted from the horse and asked the two guards on duty again, just to be sure.  "Is this really the home of Pang Xi?"

The guards looked at him suspiciously.  He was dressed as a servant but rode a very expensive-looking horse.  Furthermore, his manner of addressing them was not that of a humble servant.

"I need to speak with Master Pang," Emilian said.

The guards did not immediately invite him inside the gate, but instead continued to detain him.  "Mr. Pang does not see guests without an appointment."

"Please give him a message.  Tell him that the servant of Zheng MeiLan needs to speak with him urgently."
