“Can’t leave? I can't go back to Xiao Wangfu?" Lin Chujiu's voice came out of the carriage again. Her voice was light gentle, but the imperial guard still didn't dare to be careless. An imperial guard said: "Xiao Wangfei, didn't you come to the palace to ask forgiveness for your sin? The emperor didn't say that you can leave, so you can only wait here."
“I came to ask forgiveness yesterday, but after thinking about it last night, I found out that something was wrong. I shouldn't have come to apologize." Lin Chujiu said while opening the door and walking down the carriage with the help of the maidservant.
Lin Chujiu clearly just walked down the carriage and didn't do anything else, but the imperial guards were so scared and stepped back further: "Xiao, Xiao Wangfei… …"
Lin Chujiu didn't seem to have seen the fear in the imperial guard’s eyes. She said with a soft voice: "People died in my Xiao Wangfu, I should have come to Dali Temple to report this matter. I don't know if you can let us pass and let me go to the Dali Temple."
“Wha, what?” The Imperial guard got confused, what does the Dali Temple had to do with this?
Lin Chujiu didn't answer, she only said: "The emperor presumably didn't order you to stop me from going to the Dali Temple. So please, make way."
“No, there is no order from the emperor. You can’t leave Xiao Wangfei.” The Imperial Guard harden his scalp.
They don’t know what Lin Chujiu was trying to do. So to be sure, they better trap Lin Chujiu here and wait for the emperor's next order.
“I can’t leave, but the people around me can leave, right?” Lin Chujiu looked at the maidservant on her side. She didn't wait for the imperial guard's answer, she directly said to Feicui: "Under the name of Wangye, go to Dali Temple."
The imperial guard was dumbfounded, they really don't know how to deal with this.
The messenger only said that they shouldn't let Lin Chujiu cause trouble. But now, it was about going to the Dali Temple, what should they do?
Without waiting for the imperial guards to make a decision, Feicui bowed her head to leave. However, seeing the imperial guard didn't make a way, Feicui looked back at Lin Chujiu: "Wangfei."
“Several of you, escort Feicui to the Dali Temple.” Lin Chujiu pointed her finger to the six Xiao Wangfu's guards. The six Xiao Wangfu's guardsmen immediately stood around Feicui.
“You, make way, don't force us to take a shot." Xiao Wangfu's guard was as arrogant as their Wangye. The imperial guards were annoyed and angry, but they didn't dare to fight.
Xiao Wangfu's guardsmen were on a different level. They may not be able to fight back if there were several of them, but if their number lessen?
When Lin Chujiu saw that the imperial guards didn't move away, she added to say: "The emperor refused to let me go, but didn't say that my maidservant can't leave. If they can't leave, what will I eat? What will I drink?"
“This…” The imperial guard didn't want to let Xiao Wangfu's people go. But when he heard Lin Chujiu's words, he hesitated for a bit, but then said: "As long as Xiao Wangfei will not leave, other can."
After six Xiao Wangfu's guardsmen leave, only one-third left at this moment. This number was very small, so the imperial guards felt relieved. They should no longer fear Xiao Wangfu, but… …
Lin Chujiu didn’t utter another word, she turned around and sat back in the carriage, making the imperial guards feel at lost.
Today, the morning court was just like the other day. There was no major event. There were only small matters, so only a few ministers came forward to report, then they briefly discussed it. In the end, they let the emperor decide.
Everyone reported in an orderly manner. As if there was no major event. In fact, the people present were all absent-minded, their mind kept thinking about Lin Chujiu, who was in the south gate. They wanted to know what she will do, but… …
Lin Chujiu didn't make any move, however, there is a much more major event… …
