"That's a huge favor! Madam Shao, please tell Lord Shao to go to Jiangning after a while."
Qiao Xuan nodded. "I will tell him."
As for whether her husband would go or not, it was not her business.
Consort Su, however, did not understand what Qiao Xuan was trying to say. She thought that Qiao Xuan was saying yes, so she got even more proud.
She couldn't help but feel smug.
She started to lecture Qiao Xuan non-stop.
Qiao Xuan listened with a smile, nodding occasionally to affirm Consort Su's assertions, which only heightened Consort Su's smug satisfaction.
Meanwhile, Consort Fu, keenly observant, subtly sneered into her tea. She saw through Consort Su's naivety, understanding that Qiao Xuan had deceived her. It amused Consort Fu that despite Qiao Xuan's promises, she would still maintain control once Consort Su departed.
As Consort Su continued speaking, she revisited the events of the previous day.
