Now, due to his relationship with the Crown Princess, Prince Rong has become involved with the Eastern Palace, and because of her son, the Empress is showing more care towards the Eastern Palace...
The Crown Princess is quite a unique character.
Which maiden would dare to strike a prince or lord? The Crown Princess did so even before she was the Crown Princess. After she struck someone, the Empress even had to send someone to apologize. Later on, the Crown Princess saved Prince Rong's life twice...
Gradually, what was originally a feud between the stepmother and stepson has, because of the Crown Princess, become a relationship of mutual affection between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and one of maternal love and filial piety, with brotherly harmony to boot.
It's truly bizarre, yet that's exactly what has happened.
Consort Ruan and Consort Qi exchanged glances, each seeing an echo of their own thoughts in the other.
The Crown Princess is poisonous.
