At this point, Consort Xi didn't need to explain further, so she stood up: "I take my leave."
The four words were spoken with immense humiliation.
A palace maid held an umbrella as the two left the pavilion, walking back the way they came.
The weather was cold, and her heart even colder.
She had been warned, and she knew it. But she also knew that what the Noble Consort said was the truth.
Yes, as long as she was the Noble Consort and favored, it would be easy to deal with her.
The heart of His Majesty was with her, and anything she wanted to do would be easy to achieve.
Consort Xi breathed in the piercing air, feeling as if her limbs and internal organs were frozen, numb with cold.
Noble Consort, Noble Consort Chen! Lady Ye!
She truly knew how to bully people, how to provoke them.
Every word she said was meant to provoke her, to make her lose her temper, to make her lose her composure.
This woman was truly terrifying.
