Xiao Jizi led Pang Ya and several people from the Star Palace out. Their faces were pale, their expressions anxious and fearful, and they hurriedly made their way towards the Canglan Court to head to Consort Zhen's Huaning Palace, their foreheads sweating.
On the road, they forcefully suppressed their anxiety and unease, deliberately choosing less crowded paths and stealthily avoiding the eyes of other palace attendants. Nevertheless, given the heavy traffic in the Harem, they were still seen by many.
Soon, whispers faintly spread throughout the Harem. Something had happened in Canglan Court, and beneath the surface, the entire Harem began to churn with unrest...
Xiao Linzi also wanted to follow but was stopped. His acting was so poor it could not be any worse; to prevent the risk of being exposed, they couldn't let him go.
He was very disappointed. Nanny Qi had him go find some men in black and keep an eye on anyone unusual within the Harem.
