"Has anyone ever told you that you're not a virtuous woman? Perhaps I should suggest to the Emperor to send Lord Shao some beauties from Jiangnan when I return home. The beauties there are known for their grace and charm. No man can resist them."
The more Consort Su pondered her idea, the more pleased she felt with herself. She couldn't help but smile proudly, casting a pointed glance at Qiao Xuan. "That settles it then. I'll bring it up to the Emperor when I return!"
Qiao Xuan smiled calmly. "Very well, thank you, Consort Su."
She didn't see the need to argue. Whether Consort Su's words held any truth was inconsequential.
If it was a bluff, there was no point in challenging it. If it was genuine, it made little difference. Should such women be sent, Qiao Xuan would never allow them to marry Lord Shao's subordinates. Who knew if they were spies sent to sow discord?
