Ji Ruyan smiled bitterly and recounted everything that happened at the palace banquet tonight, word for word.
Luo Shunchen pulled her into his embrace and comforted her gently, "No matter how Mother Consort sees you, the days to come, it's me and you together. I know who you truly are better than she does. Steward Gao was not wrong, back then because of Mother Consort's excessive weakness..."
"I..."
Ji Ruyan didn't know how to describe her feelings, though Luo Shunchen stood on her side, making her feel at ease.
However, she wanted to be frank and open with Noble Consort Bing.
Her own mother passed away when she was six years old.
After marrying Luo Shunchen, knowing he had a Mother Consort deep within the palace, she sincerely wanted to serve her loyally.
But...
Maybe, in interactions between people, there are always regrets.
"Alright, don't think too much, I'm here with you."
Luo Shunchen held her hand and then told her about Bai Wuhou already being imprisoned.
