Sipping her tea lightly, Consort Shu's eyes flickered with a sinister, ghostly glow. She slowed her speech and said softly, "It's nothing, just that this palace was inadvertently scratched by a wild cat before, and I felt quite displeased in my heart. However, I couldn't lower myself to quarrel with a beast. Today, I heard that the little beast was skinned and had its tendons pulled out before being thrown into the pool, its death was extremely miserable. It's as if the pent-up breath in my chest has been released, and I feel extraordinarily carefree."
Noble Lady Liu was completely confused; her mind wasn't very sharp, and she didn't realize the deeper meaning behind these words.
However, Consort Shu's eerie description made her hair stand on end subconsciously, and even her smile appeared somewhat forced. After searching for words for a long time, she hesitantly said, "Perhaps... this is retribution, right? It's the wild cat's fault for being blind and offending Your Highness!"
