"You bastards, do you think you can just barge into the Crown Princess's palace like that?" Park Duandiao and Jiao Sigun's voices rang out, clearly indicating that they were trying to stop the other party from entering.
"Hmph, I am in charge of overseeing matters in the palace, so I naturally have the right to investigate all illegal activities. Are you making excuses here because you have something to hide?" Shi Jun's arrogant voice rang out. Coming from a prestigious family and holding a high position, he naturally did not take these two junior guards seriously.
"Lord Shi should be supervising the officials outside the palace, right? When did it become Lord Shi's place to manage the women in the palace?" A female voice came, and the Crown Princess's eyes lit up. It was her personal maid, Rong Mo. It seems that this girl is not stupid. She didn't find me at the Hundred Flowers Palace and knew to come back in advance to stabilize the situation.
Just then, another sweet laugh rang out: "Lord Shi is also concerned about the Crown Princess's safety. We should confirm it. Don't you even trust me?"
The Crown Princess's expression changed slightly, and she whispered, "It's the Emperor's Consort Shu. You must leave through the secret passage quickly."
If someone were to find Zuan in his palace, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
"Okay!" Zu'an didn't dare to delay and hurriedly prepared to run to the secret passage under the bed.
"Wait a minute~" The Crown Princess hurriedly grabbed him, "Release their pressure points first, but make sure they don't see you."
Zuan secretly admired the woman's meticulousness, nodded, and his figure transformed into a blur as he released the pressure points of the maids before leaping into the secret passage under the bed.
The Crown Princess hurriedly lay down to seal the entrance to the secret passage, but Zu An suddenly returned, leaned down and kissed her: "Consider this payment for saving you this time!"
After saying that, he laughed and walked away.
The Crown Princess covered her mouth, her eyes filled with both shame and anxiety. This guy was really something; she wanted to bite him hard!
But she couldn't care less about being angry now. She hurriedly tidied the bedding on the bed so that no one could see the existence of the secret passage.
She had just finished when the door was flung open. Clearly, servants like Rong Mo, Pu Duandiao, and Jiao Sigun alone couldn't stop the combined forces of Consort Shu and Shi Jun.
There was originally a crown prince, but unfortunately, he was useless. Not only did he not stop them, he also came over excitedly, as if he wanted to watch the show.
The Crown Princess noticed his expression and felt a surge of anger rising in her heart. No matter how scoundrel Zu'an was, he was still more reliable than this guy in a critical moment.
Consort Shu and Shi Jun, who had burst in with expressions of complete confidence, were utterly dumbfounded when they saw the Crown Princess sitting on the bed: "You... what are you doing here?"
The Crown Princess said coldly, "What? Can't I even be in my own palace?"
Meanwhile, Zu'an emerged from the secret passage and sensed that the palace was teeming with people. He knew that all the palace guards had been mobilized to search for suspicious individuals, and since it was already dark and the palace gates were closed, he abandoned his plan to leave the palace.
He found a secluded spot, took out the Embroidered Robe Envoy's clothes, put them on, and transformed back into Gold Medal Eleven.
I wonder what the Crown Princess's reaction would be if she found out that I was the Eleventh Golden Medalist?
Feeling the lingering sweetness on his lips, he smiled slightly. Although today was a bit thrilling, it wasn't bad overall.
He walked towards his residence, Baisha Courtyard, deciding to sleep there and avoid the limelight.
However, he suddenly stopped when he got close to Baisha Courtyard, because he noticed that there were many people lying in ambush in the vicinity.
