It spared her the trouble of worrying.
As expected, Consort Zheng Pin instantly turned red with embarrassment and fell silent.
The Empress secretly sneered, a small smile playing on her lips. After guiding the conversation for a while longer, she dismissed everyone.
Honored Lady Hu walked the slowest.
Seeing that almost everyone had left, she took a small path back.
Inside the inner chamber of Jiaofang Hall, Honored Lady Hu knelt on the ground.
"Empress, please forgive me!"
The Empress looked at her with a sneer.
"What else do you have to say? How can this palace trust you again? You only have a few days left!"
Honored Lady Hu, like a startled bird at the twang of a bowstring, suddenly looked up.
"Empress, please forgive me! I will surely not disappoint you!"
Upon hearing this, the Empress's anger flared once more.
"This palace doesn't know what you are waiting for, but let me tell you! If you fail, this palace will take back everything you currently enjoy!"
