The ladies immediately made their choice, retreating in droves. Some even went back to feed the fish, gradually escaping this chaotic scene.
On the left are Princess Rouqing and the Fourth Princess Consort, and on the right are Princess Mingle and Princess Handan. No matter which side you help, you'll only get yourself into trouble.
We can't afford to mess with them.
