At midnight, when the nearby people were all deep in slumber, Mu Ying stored the carriage inside the ring and rode the flying carpet toward the Royal Palace.
The flying carpet could shield itself from human sight, so there was no need to worry about being discovered.
After a painstaking search around the Royal Palace Castle, she finally located the Queen's quarters—the most spacious room at the very top of the castle.
Mu Ying changed into an off-white Flowers Skirt, the hem and cuffs embroidered with floral patterns, and her hair returned to its natural color. She wore no shoes or stockings, her feet bare.
Then she switched from the flying carpet to the flying broom, casually side-sitting on the broom while letting it hover a distance away from the balcony.
At last, she took out a seed of the Lamp Vine and quickly spurred its growth, letting it twine around the flying broom, followed by buds forming all over the Lamp Vine.
