Become a founding empress in ancient times with the system

Chapter 212 Routine Inspection

The snow was still falling, and a thick layer had accumulated in the places that had not been cleared, sparkling silver on the ground. Sheng Changan walked out of the carriage and slowly exhaled a breath of hot air.

The temperature at night was exceptionally low, and in order to attend the palace banquet, many people cared more about appearances than warmth. She could even see the young men and women from aristocratic families shivering in the cold outside.

And because it was a palace banquet, carriages were not allowed to enter at all, so many people could only line up outside and slowly walk inside.

Sheng Changan walked out without looking around, and attracted a lot of people's attention as soon as she got off the car. You know, from ancient times to the present, she might be the only one who attended a palace banquet as a county magistrate.

"My lord, be careful. We are waiting for you here." Yuan Qi looked at her steadily. If she was not careful during this palace banquet, she might not even be able to leave the palace.

Moreover, for a county magistrate to be able to attend the palace banquet, regardless of whether she was willing or not, was already a great honor in the eyes of everyone, so it was destined that she could not bring anyone with her.

They could only wait outside, but for some reason, Du Jingsheng and his group had not arrived yet. They were supposed to be the ones to pick them up.

It wouldn't be difficult to leave with the explosives, but now that no one was in sight, they could only act according to circumstances.

And it is impossible for the Liu family not to make trouble at this palace banquet.

Sheng Chang'an nodded slightly. Her face was rather cold, her eyes were slightly raised, and there was a hint of unsuitable sharpness in the corners of her eyes. These young men and women from aristocratic families were all stunned for a moment, and no one dared to step forward easily.

But it was only a moment. Once they reacted, almost everyone looked at Sheng Changan with unfriendly eyes.

If eyes could kill, Sheng Changan would have died long ago.

Sheng Changan curled the corners of his mouth. He had anticipated this scene. Not to mention other things, Yunfeng, which had just been captured some time ago, has been in constant civil unrest until now.

It is because these noble families are ready to make a move. Although she does not care much about her reputation, she still needs a legitimate reason to kill people.

And...her reputation has gone from killing a large number of people who deserved it in Yunfeng to now being rumored to have killed countless people and is the resurrection of the devil.

After the cleanup at that time, the others were relatively quiet, but it was only temporary. Within a few months, many people started making trouble again, either secretly or openly.

But this time it was not easy to find evidence. If Yu Xiuran had not had the life-saving medicine given by Du Zhong, he would have almost lost his life.

Originally, these noble families were united on the surface but secretly in internal strife. But now, because of her, these people can be said to be united as one.

After all... we have a common enemy.

Sheng Chang'an walked to the palace gate with an expressionless face amidst the murderous gazes. As soon as she arrived, the guards guarding the palace gate exchanged a subtle look with her.

"Lord Sheng, this is a routine inspection. Nothing that threatens the safety of the palace banquet is allowed in." As soon as he finished speaking, two palace maids walked forward.

Sheng Changan glanced at their red, frozen fingers calmly. It seemed that they had prepared people long ago. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Of course there is no problem with the routine inspection."

"Master Sheng, we are sorry." They checked very carefully, searching almost every inch. "Master Sheng, please come this way. You need to take off your shoes for inspection."

Sheng Chang'an curled the corners of his lips and followed obediently. He even searched her socks inch by inch. After the inspection, nearly half an hour had passed before a palace maid led her to the palace banquet venue.

Her eyes passed inconspicuously over the guards at the palace gate. The security was extremely tight, but she was the only one who conducted such a thorough routine inspection.
