After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Before Nanny Li and Xia Zhu could be surprised, they saw Shen Jinyao start to take off her hairpin.

She whispered, "Miss?"

Although Xia Zhu was shocked, she just glanced at the busy Shen Jinyao and took the hairpin from Shen Jinyao's hand.

Shen Jinyao said coldly, "Now do as I say. Xia Zhu, ride back to the mansion and get my lavender dress."

Except for Nanny Li and the housekeeper who were old, all the servants of the Shen family learned to ride horses in Wuhe Village.

Although Xia Zhu is not as good at riding a horse as Lan Xing, she knows that Xia Zhu is very thoughtful and will definitely know how to deal with it if she is stopped by someone.

"Mammy, please help me change my makeup."

Nanny Li knew that Shen Jinyao was a person with a plan in mind, so she agreed without hesitation.

Shen Jinyao didn't dare to let her guard down at all.

She would rather believe Xiang Hongxuan's news completely than relax a bit.

Now is a time of turmoil in the imperial court, and the Shen family has been brought to the attention of the public by the emperor.

It is impossible for the Shen family to remain unscathed.

Nanny Li looked at Shen Jinyao and saw that she had transformed from the bright and dazzling eldest daughter of the Shen family when she first went out in the morning into a pretty young woman.

Not long after, Xia Zhu came back with Shen Jinyao's coat.

"Mammy, please go out first. I will do it myself."

Nanny Li thought about it and decided that it would be inconvenient for the young lady to change clothes in the carriage, so she decided to go outside and keep watch.

Shen Jinyao took off the cherry-red coat she wore when she went out in the morning and changed into lavender clothes.

She thought of Li Ma's expression when she saw the coat just now.

Nanny Li couldn't help but persuade her, "Miss, isn't this dress too old-fashioned..."

It’s better to keep it simple.

At the very least, plain clothes will make people look younger.

However, although the material of this lavender dress is not bad, it is somewhat similar to the clothes worn by ladies.

It obscured the eldest lady's aura and made her face look yellow.

Shen Jinyao thought about it, took out an ordinary hairpin from the space and put it on her head.

It would be better to make the Empress and the Emperor think that she is just a peasant.

In Wuhe Village, this outfit is definitely what you would wear to meet a noble, but in Shangjing City, it is not even as good as the maids in the prince's mansion.

"Mommy."

"exist."

"Let's go."

Fortunately, although Shen Jinyao got up a little later than usual in the early morning, the Shen family was very efficient, so Shen Jinyao didn't go out too late.

It has been nearly half an hour now, and fortunately we can arrive at the palace gate at noon.

Shen Jinyao in the carriage was taking things out of the space while pondering Xiang Hongxuan's words.

Sleeping pills, smoke powder, and a dagger coated with poison.

She even ate some cakes.

The reason is that it would be difficult if there was nothing to eat after entering the palace.

After all, there are spies everywhere in the palace, so it is best not to take things out.

She thought of something and wrapped the weapons in a handkerchief and hid them in the space.

She had never been to the palace, but she knew that when ministers entered the palace, they would be checked to see if they were carrying any weapons without permission.

She is a woman and was invited into the palace by the Queen Mother, so she should not be investigated.

But just in case, Shen Jinyao still didn't take it out.

Anyway, the handkerchief is not big. When you walk to a place with few people, just touch your waist and the handkerchief will come out.

This is different from those that are eaten.

After all this was prepared, Xia Zhu's low voice came from outside the carriage.

"Miss, here we are."

Carriages were not allowed to stop at the palace gate.

After the Shen family's carriage stopped, Shen Jinyao was helped out of the carriage by Xia Zhu and Lan Xing.

Although Shen Jinyao was a little uncomfortable, after all, she had never been helped out of a carriage.

However, at the gate of the palace, her every word and action represented the Shen family.

I believe that it won’t be long before the news that the eldest daughter of the Shen family in the Marquis’ Mansion was summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother will spread to the backyards of all the major aristocratic families in Shangjing City.

Shen Jinyao could only enter the palace with a nanny and two maids, and no guards or servants were allowed to enter.

Who knew that when they arrived at the palace gate, after Nanny Li introduced herself, she saw a eunuch coming slowly from a distance after a while.

The eunuch only began to confess his crime after he walked up to Shen Jinyao and others.

"Oh, Miss Shen, right? The Queen has been busy, so Miss didn't wait too long, did she?"

Shen Jinyao smiled faintly and said, "It's okay, my daughter just arrived."

Seeing Shen Jinyao's neither humble nor arrogant attitude, the eunuch couldn't help but take a second look at her.

No wonder that guy fell in love with her.

He thought that this person might become the master of the palace in the future, so he ignored the Queen's instructions and became more polite.

Several people entered the palace smoothly.

But it is still a long way from the harem.

Fortunately, Shen Jinyao and others have stayed in Wuhe Village for a long time, so these roads are nothing.

Shen Jinyao lowered her head slightly, then looked up and saw a door at the end of the high wall.

A palace maid was standing at the door.

When the three of them came up.

The nanny greeted the eunuch and said, "Thank you, eunuch. Leave the rest to me and you can go and get busy."

The eunuch saw that this person was the head nanny serving the Queen Mother.

Then I understood.

He smiled and said goodbye.

The maid pulled Shen Jinyao aside and said, "This must be the eldest daughter of the Shen family, right? Look at how beautiful she is. No wonder our queen has always wanted to see you."

Shen Jinyao smiled faintly, lowered her head, and pretended to be shy.

The nanny looked at Shen Jinyao, who lowered her head and looked submissive, and wondered if the Queen had made a mistake.

But the job still needs to be done.

"Miss Shen, we are entering the harem to see the Empress, and we need to check our accompanying clothing."

Nanny Li was puzzled, as she had been to the palace twice with the old lady before.

I don't remember there being such a rule.

She took a step forward to ask, but Shen Jinyao supported her arm.

Nanny Li paused for a moment, then stopped and supported Shen Jinyao.

Shen Jinyao: "This is my first time in the palace, and I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself. In that case, I'll just follow the rules."

The nanny was very happy to see that Shen Jinyao and others did not resist.

After all, if they don't know the etiquette and start making trouble, these people will be the ones who end up in trouble.

The Queen Mother was naturally furious.

The nanny thought of the sound of quarreling coming from the Queen's palace last night.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

After all, the emperor wanted to see Shen Jinyao for no apparent reason and had to rely on the empress for help. No one would be happy about that.

What's more, since the third prince became the crown prince.

The Queen Mother hated everything related to the Prince.

The Empress had no idea why Shen Jinyao was so highly regarded by the Emperor.

We sent people to investigate, but they couldn't find out the reason.
