Hearing Consort Lu's words, Song Yunzhao thought, 'Just as I expected.' She knew the minor incident in the Imperial Kitchen wasn't enough to warrant Consort Lu humbling herself with a visit. Her smile faded slightly as she looked at Consort Lu and sighed. "Lady Lu, I'm afraid I really can't help you with this matter. My cousin studied diligently for many years, only to end up with this result. If he doesn't seek justice, how can his heart be at peace?"
Consort Lu said patiently, "My father is already investigating this and will certainly ensure justice is done. But your cousin is causing such a scene. The bigger this gets, the harder it will be to clean up. If he offends too many people, it won't be good for his future career as an official."
