"Lord Ji! What are you doing here?"
A eunuch suddenly ran over.
Yun Su recognized the eunuch's attire; he was a close attendant of the Crown Prince.
She quickly withdrew her hand, gave a wink to the person next to her, and lowered her head, intending to retreat.
However, the eunuch moved very quickly and was already close by, even glancing at her face in the process.
Yun Su didn't dare to speak and turned to leave.
Fortunately, the eunuchs' attention was on Ji Rong, and they didn't pay much attention to them.
As Yun Su walked away, she heard the eunuch's voice coming from behind her: "Lord Ji, His Majesty has ordered that you are not to be included in tonight's palace banquet. You should not have entered the palace."
Having probably heard about Ji Rong's hysteria, and seeing that he remained silent, the eunuch did not press the matter further and shook his head helplessly.
"Very well, very well. This servant was only here by chance on His Highness the Crown Prince's orders. This servant will send someone to escort you back to your residence immediately. Tonight, this servant will pretend I didn't see you..."

As she pondered the name, Yun Su frowned.
This Lord Ji's identity is not simple; at the very least, it is definitely not as insignificant as Jinghui described.
But given the current situation, she couldn't possibly question Ji Rong's identity, nor did she have the heart to investigate Jing Hui's motives for lying.
In any case, she successfully entered the palace. Now that she had come this far, she could only continue with her plan.
For her, nothing else mattered as long as Emperor Jingyuan was killed today.
Yun Su gritted her teeth and, with her sisters behind her, slipped into a palace.
At this moment, Ji Rong was already walking towards the palace gate.
The eunuch behind him sighed, turned around and walked around the palace wall, finding a hibiscus-patterned warm jade hairpin where Ji Rong had just stood.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the one Jiang Wan had described.
As Pei Xuan's confidant, he could naturally understand the meaning behind his master's every glance and tone of voice.
The eunuch carefully wrapped the hairpin, put it in his sleeve, and coughed lightly.
"Men, take your lanterns and search carefully. Madam Jiang's hairpin must be nearby."
