"Sit down and talk, Ninth Sister; how could I blame you? There is still time before the auspicious hour, you are not late." Su Xinyi spoke with a smile, waiting for You Xiangrui to take her seat before continuing, "Speaking of which, I also have some acquaintance with Aunt Fu. I heard she made a mistake earlier and was punished; is she doing well now?"
You Xiangrui's eyes flickered upon hearing this, and before she could speak, the Princess Consort Wu was the first to speak.
"The Crown Princess is sisters-in-law with Ninth Sister. Why bother so much about a concubine? Unnecessarily, it gives her face, and isn't this just embarrassing Ninth Sister?"
Su Xinyi then remembered that Consort Ming had also sent a Beauty to Prince Wu, regardless of whether Ji Yun liked Prince Wu or not. By doing so, Consort Ming was, in effect, slapping her across the face—it was no wonder she was feeling out of sorts.
