The Princess Consort's words were a subtle diversion, and she did not mean to speak up for Wu.
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Madam Wu: "Alright, Madam Wu, you don't need to stand there anymore. You do things properly, and the master often praises you. The capable should do more work, and I trust you to do things. If you still have any questions or don't know how to do something, just come to the main courtyard and ask my maid, Granny Qian."
Very good, it seems that Wu Shi is determined to take on this task.
Wu Shi naturally understood the unspoken meaning of the Fujin's words. She suppressed her emotions, lowered her head and agreed, but the look in her eyes as she glanced at Song Shi sitting opposite her was filled with resentment and venom.
The Fujin (principal wife) had no intention of speaking up for Wu Shi at all; in fact, she was clearly adding fuel to the fire.
