Han Xuelian dispatched two of Chi Liwen's miniature blood puppets to infiltrate the carriage occupied by the four court officials. The two blood puppets attached themselves to the undersides of the carriage, expanding their network to procure a space of communication for the Grandmaster.
Han Xuelian wanted to overhear their conversation.
The first court official, a middle-aged regular mortal with greying hair and dressed in black and gold robes of the Emperor's colours, cackled gruffly as he spoke, "Kekeke that Yongmin's lass never disappoints."
Han Xuelian remembered his voice from the memory projections he received from his mother before he departed from her chambers.
The first court official was the man who struck Yun Xuanmei's face with his hand every time she pleaded for mercy.
