There was a eunuch, who was so intimidated by Yan Hengyin's words and his stern, righteous expression, that he went ahead and spoke.
"Actually, it was Princess Consort Rong who pushed Noble Princess Consort Xu. She couldn't stop herself and fell into the lake."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xianghua, who was beside Pei Lingling, slapped his face.
"Bold servant, do you know the serious crime of defaming your master?"
The eunuch gritted his teeth, "I know, but I was taught from a young age not to lie or frame others."
Hearing this, Pei Lingling was infuriated.
Clearly, it was that Noble Princess Consort Xu causing trouble, yet she somehow ended up as the villain.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
But she also remembered that the person in front of her, the Emperor, held her fate in his hands, so she suppressed her anger and acted coyly.
