A burst of light laughter broke the uncomfortable atmosphere in the hall.
Everyone looked toward the laughter and found it came from the Pure Consort, who was seated one seat below the Empress.
The imperial harem was now left with only the Empress and the Pure Consort.
Everyone had nearly forgotten about her as the Pure Consort had been quiet for quite a while. No one had expected her to suddenly break the silence at this moment.
Their gazes turned toward her.
The Pure Consort was holding an exquisite jade-white wine cup. Held against her slender hands, her skin looked especially fair and pretty.
She looked at Wanyan Luosang nonchalantly. "Princess Luosang, can't you see that the Empress is tired and His Majesty is about to see her back? Why not let me have a drink with you instead?"
