The Noble Consort's face turned slightly pale, and she blinked back tears that had already begun to swirl in her eyes.
Seeing her mistress wronged, her palace maid couldn't help but retort indignantly, "Noble Consort Niang Niang, it was clearly you who bumped into my mistress. How can you so blatantly distort the truth and fabricate lies?"
"I bumped into her? Did anyone see that?"
A silent consensus prevailed among the crowd.
The palace maid trembled with anger, "They are all your people, of course, they would take your side."
Noble Consort chuckled, "Then you should ask your mistress if I really bumped into her."
"Niang Niang..." The palace maid looked at the Noble Consort with heartache.
