Princess Consort nodded slowly, acknowledging the possibility. It made sense to her that the leak might have come from within Madam Shao's household.
With a sneer, she commented, "Ms. Qiao is so incompetent that she can't even manage her maids!"
Auntie Fu sighed internally, wondering why Princess Consort was fixating on this matter.
"Princess Consort, if it's a misunderstanding, why not ask them to leave?" Auntie Fu suggested.
"Leave!" Princess Consort commanded, prompting everyone to express their thanks and hastily depart, relieved to escape the situation.
As the room cleared, Auntie Fu hesitated before speaking, "Princess Consort, the sudden spread of this news is unusual. I didn't dare hide it from you, and the rumors aren't favorable… This doesn't seem normal."
