Chapter 1
The pace of the carriage was getting slower and slower. Wang Yifu opened the corner of the window and peeked out secretly. The whole sky was blocked by white and gray clouds. Although there was light in the sky, it was not bright.

Wang Yifu tilted her head, opened the car window further, and looked further ahead. The carriage was getting closer and closer to Bei'anmen.

Less than ten steps away, the eunuch driving the carriage stopped the horse, jumped out of the carriage, walked to the big vermilion gate, bowed slightly to the city guards, took out a small ivory card from his chest, and said with a smile:

"This master, the younger one's surname is Yan, is a member of the Internal Affairs Supervisor. These two carriages are girls who were brought into the palace from the south of the Yangtze River. They are ordered by the empress. I hope the military master will let them go."

The guard wearing the round helmet laughed contemptuously, and said, "It is said that your internal affairs supervisor only knows about Li Niangniang from Yongshou Palace, but not the empress of Kunning Palace. Why did you change her mind?"

"Mr. Jun, you are joking. The Empress of the Central Palace is the mother of a country. How dare we scumbags have the intention of disobedience."

The eunuch took out something from his cuff, took out something wrapped in black cloth, looked around, picked up the guard's hand, and stuffed the thing out. "They're all on errands, so don't embarrass the little ones, Mr. Jun."

On the contrary, the guard opened his hand openly and looked at it. There was a black money bag half the size of a palm in his hand. He tilted the weight, shrunk his hand into the armor, and pointed to the inside of the imperial city with his chin, "Go in. "

The eunuch immediately turned around and drove to lead the way. The two carriages in their group slowly passed the gray brick corridor, passed the red gate, and entered the imperial city.

The prosperity of the capital was behind her, Wang Yifu couldn't help but look back, once entering through this door, it would be difficult to get out.

Putting down the car window and looking around, the girls in the carriage are all only thirteen or fourteen years old. Due to the exhaustion of the boats and cars these days, they are languid and have no energy. Some yawn repeatedly, and some close their eyes to rest. People in the same industry don't like to talk to each other.

She took out an oil-paper package from her bag, and as soon as she opened it, the girl beside her frowned and turned away.

The pancakes had been stored for some time, and the smell of heavy oil was really cloying, so Wang Yifu put away the things, opened the car window, and pretended to look at the scenery, but in reality the smell dissipated.

Not long after entering Bei'anmen, the carriage turned right and entered a street. Wang Yifu could only see the back wall of a large courtyard. Turned around in front of the courtyard and stopped.

The eunuch driving the horse grabbed the front curtain of the carriage and threw it to the top, saying, "Girls, get out of the carriage."

The two girls near the door got out of the car one by one, and two eunuchs grabbed their arms and rushed into the courtyard, acting rudely, like a scene of slaughtering sheep and chickens.

Wang Yifu glanced at the people around the carriage. Except for the eunuch driving the carriage, although the rest of them were dressed in the same clothes, they looked like eunuchs, but each had a saber pinned to their waist.

"Get out of the car."

Hearing his urging, Wang Yifu said first, "I'll go first."

She walked to the car entrance with a bowed body, stopped, pulled out a thin silver hairpin from her head, grabbed it in her hand, and stabbed the horse's buttocks.

"Hey~~~~" The horse screamed, and the horse ran forward desperately.

The people in the car fell back violently, and the girls all screamed. Wang Yifu climbed to the door of the car, grabbed the floor of the car with one hand, and opened her other hand to grab the flying rein. After grabbing the hand, he sat and rode the horse in a correct posture, and based on his memory, he made the wildly running horse turn several turns and returned to the main street entering Bei'anmen.

The carriage ran wildly towards Bei'anmen, and Wang Yifu fell backwards, holding the reins with both hands and pulling back vigorously, but the wildly running horse had no intention of stopping at all.

Seeing that the horse was about to rush out of the door, the city guards swung their simple knives from left to right, and cut off the horse's legs. Another guard's knives hacked into the wooden boards on both sides of the carriage, completely stopping the carriage.

Wang Yifu fell off the carriage, and the girls in the carriage rolled to the entrance of the carriage, grabbing where they could, so as to avoid landing in embarrassment.

Although the guard who collected the money just now was surprised that the person driving this crazy horse was actually a little girl, he didn't show much emotion, and said angrily, "Who are you, you dare to act presumptuously in the imperial city?"

Wang Yifu didn't care about the scratches on her hands, got up from the ground, patted the dust off her body, and gave a blessing to the guards.

"Master Jun, we were selected into the palace to serve as female historians in the first palace of the Sixth Bureau. It was originally a father-in-law surnamed He who brought us into the capital from Jiangnan.

The father-in-law just took over to take us this morning, and I don’t know where he took the two of us in the carriage. The two girls who got off the carriage first disappeared, and the lives of the girls in the second carriage are uncertain. The military master asked the people in the inner teaching workshop to send someone to discuss it clearly. "

The guards admired the girl when she saw that she was calm and handled things well, and was about to ask another question, only to see Eunuch Yan and a few people coming late, and when they saw Wang Yifu, they pointed at Wang Yifu and said, "Okay!" You are a bold bitch! How can you be presumptuous in the imperial city."

Just as he showed his angry face, he cupped his hands and said to the guards with a smile: "Master Jun, this little girl is so bold and disobedient, please hand her over to me and play dozens of boards."

The guard guarding the city thought for a while, and realized that something was wrong, and asked: "Just now you said that you are a member of the Internal Affairs Supervisor?"

Eunuch Yan frowned slightly, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes..."

"Which branch of the internal affairs supervisor are you? Are you a long-term follower or a loose official?"

Eunuch Yan hesitated and couldn't answer. The guard guarding the city gate was sure that something was wrong, so he turned around and nodded to one person, "Go to Neijiaofang, please come to the steward." Then he pointed to another person and said : "You go to the Internal Affairs Supervisor and invite the accompanying eunuch."

Those who listened to the order trotted away, looking for their own doors.

Seeing that the situation was not good, eunuch Yan and the others turned around to leave, but were stopped by several officers with plain knives, the guards walked up to him, took out the black money bag at his waist and threw it on the ground, saying: "Don't rush away, six The entry of people from Bureau One Palace into the imperial city should be arranged by the eunuchs in the ceremonial room entrusted by the female officials in the palace, when did a yamen as big as the Internal Affairs Supervisor personally supervise it?"

Eunuch Yan smiled awkwardly: "This time it is the first order from the empress who has just entered the palace. Of course, the internal affairs supervisor must handle the errands safely."

"Take care of the errand? Neijiaofang is on the west side. The car you were driving just now was going east. You can't handle this errand very well."

"Maybe... the little one has been away from the palace for too long, and I can't remember the way."

"Can't remember the way? Then wait here until you remember the way."

Wang Yifu and the girls all packed their bags and stood at the gate of Bei'an waiting for the news. Not long after, two eunuchs hurried over from the street carrying a lilac sedan chair.
