Consort Rou was quite pleased.
But her face showed a cautious expression: "Jiulang, you aren't really going to depose the Empress, are you? After all, the Empress hasn't done anything wrong. She loves you so much. If you deposed her, she'd surely be heartbroken."
In truth, Consort Rou was inwardly hoping for the Empress's deposition. The Empress only claimed her position thanks to her family's status. If the Gao family fell, she wouldn't be able to act so arrogantly anymore.
Consort Rou had even imagined how she would later go to the Cold Palace to humiliate Anning after the Empress was deposed and sent there.
"No matter how much she loves me, I dislike her. Seeing her makes me feel disgusted. Besides, she's long since been impure. It's only due to the Gao family's power that I have to tolerate her now."
Emperor Kang He was utterly revolted at the thought of Anning.
