Yuan Bao quickly found out the identity of the so-called "Talented Lady" beside Fu Xiuen. That woman was just a girl from a Yuefang in a neighboring city. She knew a lot of arts, but calling her a "Talented Lady" was a stretch.
The women from Yuefang only learn the skills to please men. Calling themselves "Talented Ladies" would just make people laugh their heads off.
Yuan Bao said, "That woman seems to have some tactics. She's been with Fu Xiuen for about a month and already has him wrapped around her finger. Fu Xiuen helped her buy her freedom and is keeping her in a mansion with two courtyards. Fu Xiuen is also staying there recently. The woman only has a maid from Yuefang who is very loyal to her.
"That woman and her maid hardly ever go out. Whatever they need, Fu Xiuen brings to them. Fu Xiuen thinks she's keeping herself pure and genuinely wants to be with him, so he's exceptionally good to her."
