Previously, she had used this token to enter and exit the palace without any issues. Why is it that today it's suddenly not working?
Evidently, it has abruptly become ineffective.
"Your Highness, please don't make it difficult for me." The guard was also quite helpless! He was simply acting on orders from above and frankly had no choice in the matter.
Upon hearing this, Jun Ning decided not to trouble the guard any further and instructed him to let her in.
She glanced at the four Imperial Guards standing behind her.
These four were highly skilled, the cream of the crop among the palace's Imperial Guards.
Her father had specifically selected them to protect her safety, and to follow her commands.
They were her people.
She could command them at will.
"You guys, go ahead and tie up those two guards at the palace gate for me." By doing this, she could enter the palace, and the guards would no longer feel troubled by her.
