After the guard called out, more guards quickly converged.
Chu Qianli pressed forward, with ceaseless guards behind her.
Seeing a corner in the distance where the lights were all out, she didn't hesitate and dashed in.
Only after entering did she realize it was a derelict courtyard.
Strangely, when the guards reached the entrance, they halted.
Through the murk, she could faintly hear someone speaking, "It's the courtyard of the lady of honor... what should we do? Shall we enter?"
"You dare to trespass in the lady of honor's domain? Do you wish to keep your head? Quick, go report to His Majesty and let him decide!"
It seemed she had entered some sort of forbidden area.
She still didn't know what background this lady of honor named Ronghua held, why the guards dared not enter her place?
However, since the guards did not pursue her relentlessly, Chu Qianli felt relieved and continued forward.
