When Lin Jiuqing and his men arrived at Yinghua Palace, the outside of Yinghua Palace was surrounded by a crowd of people, with a layer of imperial guards and a layer of secret guards. Without the permission of the people inside, not even a mosquito could fly in.

The man guarding the door was the commander of the Imperial Guards, who was promoted by Mo Xiao after he ascended the throne. His expression changed immediately when he saw Lin Jiuqing.

No one knew that before leaving the capital, their Majesty gave the final command of the Imperial Guards to the Empress Chenfei in the harem.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Concubine!" The commander of the imperial guards knelt on the ground and saluted with a respectful attitude, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

Lin Jiuqing stepped forward and helped the man up himself, saying with a smile, "No need to be so polite, get up."

"Thank you, ma'am!"

The commander of the Imperial Guards stood up and glanced at the huge crowd following Lin Jiuqing, with a puzzled look on his face: "Madam, what are you doing..."

"You've been standing here all day. You must be hungry, right?" Lin Jiuqing said with a smile, "I've asked someone to prepare some food and send it over. You can share it with the brothers below."

When the commander of the Imperial Guard heard this, he immediately said, "How can this be possible?"

"Why not?"

"We are on duty, we cannot..."

"Man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. How can you be on duty on an empty stomach?" Lin Jiuqing interrupted him and said softly, "There is nothing else, just some dry food. Let the brothers eat it with water. It won't delay their duty."

As he said this, he turned around and looked at Yingyue. Yingyue understood and took people to take out the prepared cakes and distribute them to the royal guards on duty one by one.

Lin Jiuqing took a cake and put it into the hand of the commander of the Imperial Guards, and said softly: "Just hold out for a while, don't be disgusted."

The commander of the Imperial Guards held the cake in his hand. After a while, the Queen Mother looked at Lin Jiuqing and said in a deep voice, "Thank you, Queen Consort Chen."

Lin Jiuqing smiled, looked at the secret guards on the inner floor, and said softly: "You have some too, go get them."

Compared with the Imperial Guards, these secret guards were much more familiar with Lin Jiuqing. They did not refuse and went to Yingyue to get the cakes.

After finishing all this, Lin Jiuqing asked, "What's going on inside?"

The commander of the Imperial Guard swallowed the cake in his mouth, looked into his eyes, and said in a low voice: "The gate is closed, and there are quarrels coming out from time to time. I don't know how long it will last."

After a pause, he asked Lin Jiuqing: "My Lady, do you want to go in?"

Lin Jiuqing hummed and said calmly: "It's getting late from morning till now, I'm sure you adults are tired."

The commander of the Imperial Guards' eyes flashed, he looked at the secret guards beside him, stepped back silently, and reached out to help Lin Jiuqing push open the door of Yinghua Palace.

In this Yinghua Palace, apart from His Majesty and the Crown Prince, Lin Jiuqing is the only person who can enter without any obstruction.

Neither the Imperial Guards nor the Secret Guards would stop them. Not only would they not stop them, as long as Lin Jiuqing gave the order, they would have to obey Lin Jiuqing's orders.

Lin Jiuqing nodded to them and swaggered into Yinghua Palace with the people behind him.

The commander of the Imperial Guards took a bite of the cake in his hand and said slowly, "Why does it seem to me that our Empress Chen seems a little angry?"

The secret guard next to him glanced at him and said, "You just noticed it?"

The commander of the Imperial Guards was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the two clan members who died at the hands of the Concubine Chen before. He said leisurely, "Some people took advantage of the absence of His Majesty to bully the young Crown Prince and force him relentlessly. Now, I'm afraid he's in trouble."
