I've embarrassed myself in front of him many times, and now I've finally seen him embarrass himself. This is called revenge, and it's quite fair.
He Yunxiao was hiding with his head down when suddenly a system message popped up.
Li Qingmeng's favorability rating has increased from 35 to 37.
He Yunxiao: What just happened?
The guards, carrying torches, approached the carriage door. A carriage curtain became the last barrier protecting He Yunxiao.
The eunuch driving the carriage naturally knew who was sitting inside; it was the Emperor's eldest sister, Princess Xiaoyue. Her Highness was of such high status, how could she be "inspected" by guards?
The eunuch said, "You cannot lift this curtain."
The guard said, "Why? Routine check."
The eunuch said, "The people sitting in the carriage are the Empress Dowager's distinguished guests, important figures who are related to her. Moreover, they are two women. It is a common custom in the Great Qi that some women have never even met their husbands before marriage. You, a mere guard, want to see the Empress Dowager's guests? Do you have that kind of luck? Aren't you afraid of dying young if you do?"
The guard was speechless after being confronted by the eunuch. Every word the eunuch said made sense. However, there was an assassin in the palace today, and he couldn't bear the responsibility of letting the person out without checking.
He Yunxiao is extremely adept at dealing with the current situation.
The current stalemate with the guards is exactly the same as the stalemate between myself and Chu Chu. One side wants to achieve its goal, while the other side doesn't want to hinder it, but is forced to do so out of consideration for face.

He Yunxiao whispered to the girl who gave him the antidote, "Miss Li, have them lift a corner of the carriage curtain so that they can see four shoes."
Meng Qingqian immediately understood He Yunxiao's meaning. Checking the shoes was a win-win solution, as it both met the eunuch's requirements and satisfied the guards who wanted to inspect them.
That's brilliant.
Meng Qingqian's opinion of He Yunxiao improved slightly. She went from calling him a "lecher" to a "clever lecher."
“Eunuch Wang,” Meng Qingqian said.
"Your servant is here."
"Allow them to look at the shoes."
"yes."
The eunuch lifted the curtain slightly and said to the guards, "Gentlemen, please."
The guards hadn't initially thought the person sitting in the car was anything special. But upon hearing Meng Qingqian's voice, their overwhelming domineering aura became unmistakable.
The guards' throats bobbed, and no one dared to look into the car; they quickly let them pass.
