Chapter 412 (1/2)
412 Picking up a purse again (1)
The guard didn’t answer, but showed a difficult expression.
He was just a small guard, how would he dare to interfere with the matters of the palace.
Xu Qi ‘an didn’t make things difficult for him. He searched around and said, “”Zhong Li?”
“I know, I’ll go back to the Directorate of Celestials first,” Zhong Li popped her head out from the wall and said obediently.
“On the way back … Will there be an accident?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
“Listen, let’s leave it to fate,” Zhong Li said in a trembling voice.
The guard examined the woman in the linen robe with disheveled hair. He felt that this woman had a pitiful temperament that made people feel pity for her.
“Da da da …”
Soon, Gong returned with the little mare. Xu Qi ‘an touched the little mare’s mane, and it snorted and arched its back at its master.
“I’ll bless you.” Xu Qi ‘an touched Zhong Li’s head.
She had returned to the Directorate of Celestials alone several times, but nothing had happened. Xu Qi ‘an estimated that there would be minor disasters, but not major ones, and this place was not far from the Directorate of Celestials.
It would take at most an hour to get there.
Riding on his beloved little mare, he drove together with the guards of shaoyin garden and rushed towards the Imperial City.
The guard waved his horsewhip and ordered the pedestrians to leave. Occasionally, he would observe Xu yinluo, the princess’s favorite official. She was expressionless and focused on the road. Although she was silent, there was a grave look on her face.
Emperor yuanjing’s harem must be in a mess. To avenge her brother’s death, the Empress would never let imperial concubine Chen off, no, imperial concubine Chen … The latter had long resented the Empress and had imagined her as an enemy for so many years …
“Damn it, why do I, a small silver Gong, have to worry about Emperor Yuan jing’s family matters? It’s all because your daughter is pretty.” Xu Qi ‘an cursed in his heart.
He galloped into the Imperial City and was stopped by the palace guards at the palace gate. The guards of Lin ‘an returned normally, but he had no right to bring people into the palace.
When Xu Qi ‘an showed the waist Jade that he had sent back then, a palace guard immediately came over and led Xu Qi’ an into the palace.
According to the rules of the palace, when someone in the palace summoned a foreign official into the palace, the palace guards had to accompany him to ensure that he did not run around.
She walked silently through the palace gate, the square, and the palace wall, and finally arrived at the shaoyin garden in Lin ‘an.
The palace guards were waiting outside the gate of shaoyin garden. The mounted guard brought Xu Qi ‘an inside. After passing through the front yard, they met Lin’ an in the reception hall.
The second Prince was still wearing a complicated and exquisite red dress. His hair was tied up with a golden hairpin, an agate hairpin, and other beautiful jewelry. He even had a small Phoenix crown that did not conform to the etiquette.
She had a round oval face and charming peach blossom eyes. She sat there expressionlessly, like an Oriental Lolita doll made by a master.
Seeing that she was fine, Xu Qi ‘an heaved a silent sigh of relief. “Your Highness, what’s wrong?”
Lin an waved his hand and dismissed the guards and Palace maids, leaving only Xu Qi ‘an.
