Chapter 211
At noon, the scorching sun was raging, the sky was blue, and there were clouds that looked as soft as cotton candy.

The tall vermilion palace walls cut off the bustling world outside.

The magnificent palace, the power inside, is the yearning of human desire.

The light cast a light yellow light along the red wall, looking up, the golden glazed tiles shone, which was particularly dazzling.

A maid in plain clothes walked slowly towards the solemn palace gate.

The door handle held a few imperial guards in armor with dark blue sleeves, and one of them stopped her footsteps, serious and forceful, "Stop!"

"What are you doing out of the palace?"

The man glanced at Kong Lanzi, then looked her up and down, frowned, and asked.

Gong'e lowered her head, took the things out of the basket, and handed them over, "Brother, my mother needs to go out of the palace to buy some things, this is the token of the empress's consent."

The man didn't respond for a long time, his eyes stayed on her.

Gong'e took out a few pieces of silver from her sleeve slowly, took the guard's hand, and placed it in his palm.

"Being in charge of the matter, if I delay my mother, I will not be able to spare me. I hope that the elder brother will accommodate me."

The guard glanced at the broken silver in his hand, his face was slightly ill for a moment, a flash of disdain flashed, and he waved his hand.

"Okay, okay, let's go."

Gong'e swept the broken silver in his hand, took back the token to leave the palace, and walked slowly outside the palace after passing him.

Before walking out, the guard suddenly said, "Wait."

A few sharp long blades were slightly unsheathed and stopped her immediately.

Gong'e lowered her eyes, and the arm holding the basket moved as her palm tightened.

The guard looked at her strangely, "Raise your head."

"Hurry up!"

Seeing her dawdling, he couldn't help but raise his voice a little, and the eyes of the imperial forest army in his hand were cold for a moment, and they all stared at this Gong'e. If there was anything wrong with her, the blade in his hand would be pulled out and pierced through her chest.

Gong'e trembled in fright, raised her eyes with a little fear, and revealed her small face.

The fluctuations in the air stopped for a few seconds, and the people present looked away from each other, not daring to take another look.

Gong'e's eyes flickered, and she winked at the stiff guard, "Brother, is there anything else?"

Disgust flashed across the guard's eyes, and the disgust immediately appeared on his face.

He waved his hand, and his eyes burned after one more look, "Go away, leave quickly."

Gong'e pursed her lips aggrievedly, and left in embarrassment.

After leaving the palace, Gong'e glanced at the sedan chair passing her in front of her, she lowered her head without any panic.

Walking along the road, I gradually heard the yelling of vendors not far away, and asked a passerby where there was water.

The kind passerby pointed in the direction, and after receiving her thanks, he waved his hand and said no.

After seeing her appearance by accident, her breathing stopped for a few seconds, her eyes widened, and then she ran away, not daring to stay for a moment, as if there was something frightening behind her.

Gong'e twitched the corners of her mouth, found a place with a stream, placed the basket she was carrying, took out a mirror from her slender waist, and took a look at it.

The small face was covered with red pimples, there was a thick black mole on the forehead, and there was an ugly birthmark on the jaw.

By the way, she soaked the handkerchief she carried with her, and wiped away the red marks and acne marks that did not belong to her face.

A thin veil was pulled from the sleeves, covering that face.

This maid is Shen Xi.
