Chapter 641 Entering the Palace

Qin'er lowered her head and stood silently behind Gu Fei, and walked out with Gu Fei.

The carriage stopped at the palace gate. Gu Fei and Qin'er got off the carriage and walked forward with the nanny. The guard on duty checked the sign in the nanny's hand and let them go.

Gu Fei did not look around, but only paid attention along the way, remembering the road she had walked and the architectural layout of each place.

Walking on the corridor in the palace, you can see a team of patrolling guards every once in a while. Occasionally, you can see eunuchs or palace maids passing by on the roadside.

After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, they saw a palace maid coming from a distance.

The palace maid approached and smiled at the nanny: "The queen asked me to come and see, why haven't I arrived yet."

The nanny just nodded.

After walking for a while, the palace maid suddenly said: "Why don't you go this way? This is a shortcut."

The nanny was calm, "Then go this way."

After turning a few corners, they saw a lake. Unknowingly, Gu Fei was led along the lake.

At this time, the maid gradually slowed down her pace, walked behind Gu Fei, and suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed Gu Fei to the side.

Her hand just touched Gu Fei's clothes, and Gu Fei had already retreated rapidly.

At the same time, Qin'er also grabbed Gu Fei's arm and pulled her back.

The maid pushed in vain, lost her center of gravity, staggered a few steps, and her whole body couldn't help but fall to the side, and she was about to fall into the lake.

Gu Fei pulled her back, and the maid barely steadied her steps, looking at the lake water so close, she was scared.

Gu Fei smiled and said, "Miss, walk carefully, you almost fell into the lake."

It's not that she wants to save the maid, but she is afraid that the maid will fall and implicate her. In the palace, it's never too careful.

The maid's face turned pale, she broke free from Gu Fei's hand, bowed silently, and walked to the front silently.

She was still afraid. It was already March, but the lake water was still freezing cold. If she had fallen in, she would have been saved and not drowned, but she would have been seriously ill.

The reason why she took action was naturally because of the Queen's suggestion.

The Queen just sneered and told her, "Didn't you say she was as beautiful as a fairy? Take her to the lake. If she becomes a drowned chicken, I don't see how beautiful she is."

But she didn't expect that the prince's wife was so alert. Not only did she lose her hand, but if Gu Fei hadn't pulled her, she would have fallen into the lake.

She knew that Gu Fei had understood her intention, so she couldn't take action again, so she simply walked to the front.

The nanny looked back, expressionless, and continued to walk forward.

After walking for another stick of incense, they arrived at a palace.

The nanny stopped and threw two words, "Wait, I'll go in and report to the Queen Mother first."

Gu Fei and Qin'er stood at the door, and saw the nanny and the palace maids go in.

After waiting for a long time, no one came out to ask her to come in.

Gu Fei knew that this was a warning to her.

In this palace, the empress dowager and the emperor seemed to be of the same lineage, and neither of them was generous.

Gu Fei was not impatient, but waited patiently.

After waiting for half an hour, a palace maid came out and nodded to Gu Fei, "Please follow me, Princess."

Gu Fei and Qin'er followed the palace maid in, crossed a courtyard, and then entered a hall.

They saw an elegant old woman in her fifties sitting at the top, and a dignified young woman sitting next to her.
