So, while she was still in the bedroom removing her hairpins, she heard heavy footsteps approaching from outside.
The sound was not something that a servant could make.
And there was a faint sound of armor.
Ruomei, beside Princess Hui Xian, reassured her.
"Princess, please wait here, I'll go and see what's happening."
"Alright."
As soon as Ruomei finished speaking, she lifted her steps and went outside.
She saw a line of individuals dressed as Imperial Guards entering the princess's courtyard.
Ruomei was startled and immediately shouted.
"What's the meaning of this? Who are you? How dare you intrude upon the Princess Mansion!"
Before she could finish speaking, they advanced to seize her.
She knew some martial arts, but they were only effective against small-time thugs.
Against Imperial Guards, it wasn't enough.
In less than ten moves.
She was easily captured.
Just like the steward, she was tied up and had her mouth gagged.
Struggling was futile.
