Noble Consort Fu's servant had reported the rumors that she heard from the chamber of Shi Yuyi.
"What did you say? Her baby was safe?! How come?! We all drink the same poison! Her baby should've been sacrificed too!"
"But my lady... you and noble concubine Hao are the only ones who lost your babies. But..." She looks around and leans closer.
"Isn't this good for you and noble concubine Hao? Noble concubine Shi had fooled the two of you. Now that the evidence is gone, maybe..."
She looks at me intently. I finally understand what she means. My jaw clenched. "She fooled me, huh? Let's see what she will do if the empress finds out that she's carrying a child even if the emperor has already been dead for three years," I mumble.
I look at my servant. "Grab some paper. I'll write a letter to noble concubine Hao and tell her how that woman had fooled us," I assert.
"Understood, my lady," she answered.
