Whether it was her or Consort Fu, it didn't matter at all!
The servants dragged out to take the blame must have been Consort Fu's people. She couldn't bear to part with her own.
In fact, Consort Fu intended for Nanny Ling to bear all the responsibility. If other madams faced such a situation, they would certainly push the responsibility onto high-status servants to show sincerity.
Consort Su, on the other hand, was delusional enough to want to wash her hands clean. She couldn't even bear to have a servant take the blame.
It wasn't about sincerity; she was playing Madam Shao for a fool.
Madam Shao could either swallow her anger and accept the humiliation or ignore her altogether.
Consort Fu glanced at her and nodded in agreement. What else could she do? Reason with Consort Su? Consort Su would definitely not listen and might even scold her instead.
Regardless, if Madam Shao didn't forgive her, it wouldn't be Consort Fu's fault.
