Man Yin clutched a silver note as he left the palace.
He was officially resting for the day, so he went out for a walk.
Eunuchs in charge of serving masters are customarily given days off. Therefore, his departure from the palace for a day wasn't anything unusual.
He could leave once he reported his intentions.
As for bringing silver outside, saying it's to buy exotic goods for Consort Xi wasn't much of an issue.
Now that the Great Qing has frequent exchanges with foreign lands, many shops selling imported goods have appeared in the Capital.
Masters in the palace often send people out to purchase items, which isn't rare.
Thus, Man Yin's departure from the palace went smoothly.
After leaving the palace, with many twists and turns, he headed towards Niujijiao Alley.
This is the home of Imperial Doctor Zhou.
Man Yin looked around to ensure no one was following him and then knocked on the door.
