"Don't you think the Emperor is acting recklessly?" The Empress seemed different today; on a typical day, she would definitely find the sudden promotion of Yingpin to Princess Consort Ying inappropriate.
"You still don't know? The Emperor elevating Yingpin to Princess Consort Ying is a slap in the face to Noble Princess Consort Rong," Empress Xie said with a full smile. "Noble Princess Consort Rong sent an assassin to kill Yingpin, and as a result, the Emperor immediately promoted Yingpin to Princess Consort Ying. Isn't that a slap in the face to Noble Princess Consort Rong?"
Jiang Chuan finally understood. His face showed a look of realization: "So, the Emperor has already discovered that the mastermind behind the assassination of Consort Ying is Noble Princess Consort Rong."
