Just before Dingyuan Marquis Mansion was surrounded, an imperial edict arrived from the palace, taking away Rong Miaoyan who was attending the birthday banquet at the Marquis Mansion.
In her haste, Miaoyan left a note for Gu Lan, indicating that something might happen.
Gu Lan immediately realized that only Rong Jing, who wanted to act against Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, would call away Miaoyan in advance to prevent her from getting involved.
Since Rong Jing considered the relationship between Miaoyan and Gu Lan while surrounding the Mansion, how could he not be wary of Miaoyan's subsequent actions?
Therefore, Rong Miaoyan could not possibly sneak into the Imperial Court simply by bribing a guard like Cheng Yu.
The fact that she was able to meet her was a deliberate act by Rong Jing.
By letting Miaoyan meet her, Rong Jing could both probe into her background and test Miaoyan's loyalty to the Emperor.
