At this moment, everyone held their breath, fearing they would disturb the concubine inside. Even Mao Xingcai and the others, who couldn't enter the room, waited outside in silence. Thus, Hao Baishuang's wailing seemed particularly jarring.
"Shut up, this is not a place for you to cry and make noise!" Mao Xingcai gritted his teeth and spoke in a lowered voice. He really didn't want to deal with Hao Baishuang, but he was helpless as she bore the name of his disciple, which could potentially implicate him.
At this point, Mao Xingcai truly regretted it. Even if it meant offending Grand Princess Huilan, he should have rejected Hao Baishuang as his disciple.
Hao Baishuang was crying weakly, sobbing and saying in distress, "Bai Ruozhu holds a grudge against me, fearing that I will overshadow her. She disregarded Concubine Yue's safety and even attacked me. Is there no law left?"
