Su Jinhuan immediately sent a formal invitation to the Princess Huaiyang Mansion. The following day, she paid a personal visit.
Princess Huaiyang was the older sister of the current Emperor Yongan. Born to the Empress Dowager, she was doted upon; the Empress Dowager had arranged her marriage to the current Prince Consort and had them reside in the Princess Mansion. The Prince Consort was the eldest legitimate son of the Xiao clan, a prominent noble house that had contributed significantly to Emperor Yongan’s ascension. Since taking the throne, the Emperor had shown great favor to the Xiao family, and they, in turn, were undoubtedly staunch royalists, highly valued by the Emperor.
When Su Jinhuan arrived, she brought a new batch of "Wanzhuang Nong" rouge as a gift for the Princess.
