Consort Shu watched the Empress Dowager's expression, feeling utterly gratified. It was a pity she wasn't the Empress. If she held that title today, she would have certainly exchanged a few more barbs with the Empress Dowager to fully vent her resentment.
"This concubine takes her leave." Consort Shu performed a curtsy and walked out slowly, a placid smile on her face.
Princess Consort Wan glanced at Consort Shu, hesitated for a moment, then followed her out.
Feng Yunjin and the other two could barely contain their excitement, their eyes practically shooting sparks. 'What an unexpected and delightful turn of events! Tsk, tsk, what a grand show we witnessed today.'
To think that the Empress Dowager, after hearing what Consort Shu said, didn't humiliate her on the spot and just swallowed the insult.
Seeing that the show was over, Lu Zhixue turned to follow Princess Consort Wan. Feng Yunjin and Han Jinyi quickly fell in step behind her.
