Chapter 1258: Whoever Reaches Out, I Will Kill!
"Step aside!!"
She stood before the palace gates clutching an Imperial Decree, and the guards dared not make a reckless move.
Unfurled, the decree revealed His Majesty's past conferment of Commandery Princess Ruyi.
Only when a chief eunuch emerged from within the palace did the guards finally find their backbone.
"The commandery princess is gone, yet someone schemes for her estate! I have matters to report to His Majesty. I must trouble you, Chief Eunuch, to clear a path!"
"Dong Chiyu, you may belong to the commandery princess's household, but if you want to enter, you must first explain your intent. Not only do we not know who you truly are, but entering the palace also requires following proper procedures. And what is the meaning of bringing a spear?!"
Seeing the Imperial Decree, the chief eunuch dared not act rashly. Had it been anyone else, he would have ordered her taken down immediately, but the person named in this decree was different.
It was Commandery Princess Ruyi!
The chief eunuch was an old servant of the palace. Naturally, he knew of Commandery Princess Ruyi's deep ties with His Majesty. Back when titles were conferred, every other meritorious minister had knelt to receive their decree. Only Commandery Princess Ruyi had stood to receive hers, and His Majesty had not uttered a word of reprimand. Her status was clearly extraordinary.
