The guards dared not make a decision because they had already received instructions; a guest was already at the Ye Residence, causing a commotion inside.
If they accepted another visitor now, with so many onlookers outside, it would surely trouble their masters!
Some of the guards had met Meng Zhaojun, as the ladies had made few friends during their months in the Capital City.
Even if they weren't very smart, they knew that noble ladies in the Capital looked down on their ladies' origins, openly or secretly mocking them as country bumpkins from the countryside!
At this moment, the guards were also inclined to protect their own. Most of the spectators or visitors now were likely of ill intent, so it was their duty as guards not to let anyone in!
One guard, his face cold, said, "Lady, without a visiting card, it's inappropriate to enter recklessly. Allow me to report this, but as for whether the masters will see you, that depends on whether you truly are a friend of our ladies."
