The news of the Grand Empress Dowager falling off the cliff spread throughout the capital, and everyone in the palace knew.
The Grand Empress Dowager rarely interacted with Emperor Jing Xuan's concubines in the harem and did not like to show her face during festive seasons.
However, when something suddenly happened to her, everyone could not help but gossip.
For example, with her aloof personality, why would she go to the Water-Moon Nunnery to pray for the soldiers?
Was she forced away by the Empress Dowager?
It was no wonder that the consorts had such speculations. Although the Empress Dowager had real power, who would feel comfortable with the Grand Empress Dowager suppressing above?
His Majesty was prideful and had always treated her with respect, but didn't His Majesty have a stroke now?
The Empress Dowager had the final say in the harem.
