Su Xinyi hadn't expected Noble Consort Li to pull such a move. She handed her child over to the wet nurse and went into the inner hall to change her outfit. After dressing and applying her makeup, she then headed to Yuanhui Palace.
Yuanhui Palace was bustling with activity, not just with Noble Consort Li, but Consort Ruan was also there, with red-rimmed eyes, looking utterly worn out.
Su Xinyi lowered her gaze. Consort Ruan coming to cry to the Empress and yet waiting for her arrival, she couldn't fathom the implication.
"Daughter-in-law pays respects to the Empress Mother," Su Xinyi said as she briskly walked in and kneeled in salutation.
"Rise," the Empress instructed as she looked at Su Xinyi.
After Su Xinyi had paid her respects to Noble Consort Li and Consort Ruan, she sat down to one side.
The Empress looked at Su Xinyi, "Have you heard about Concubine Pei's miscarriage?"
Su Xinyi nodded, "I just received the news."
