Welcoming Banquet of Fellow Villagers

During Mu Yuyan's time as a princess, the nobles were aware that Princess Jiaqing had two maids by her side. However, the identities of these maids remained a mystery to the entire capital.

Having grown up alongside Mu Yuyan, the maids, in name, were subjects to their princess. Yet, in reality, they were more like sisters. However, after Mu Yuyan ascended to the throne, with the increased responsibilities of state affairs, their playful times together became rare.

Due to Liu Yexi's straightforward personality and limited wit, she joined the Imperial Announcements Bureau. On the other hand, Xiao Fei'er, with her enchanting beauty and proficiency in music, was honored with the establishment of the Dulcet Pavilion, becoming the foremost beauty in the capital and serving as the female Emperor's direct spy in this gathering place of diverse backgrounds.

Both women were adept at controlling court and public information. One operated in the open, while the other worked in the shadows.
