章 366: Chapter 366: What Kind of Place is This?

Because in a place like the capital, there was never a shortage of fresh gossip, such as the Shen Family, the top aristocratic family in the capital, which gradually rose to prominence after Mu Houchu's withdrawal, and the Duan Family, which started gaining power.
