With a dark expression, Xu Lejin coldly rebuked, "Shut up, Consort Xitala! This concerns the Emperor's reputation. The matter of Consort Xitala's disrespect before the Emperor must not be spread even slightly throughout the palace."
Consort Nara looked indignant and opened her mouth to retort, but swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Consort Zhao belatedly realized what was happening.
With a gloomy look, Consort Zhao glanced at Xu Lejin and said in a deep voice, "What Consort Yu said is very true. This concerns the Emperor. After you all return to the palace, order the palace servants not to discuss it in private."
"Yes, we will follow Consort Zhao's instructions."
An hour later, Xu Lejin returned to Yikun Palace.
After dismissing the palace maids serving her, Xu Lejin covered herself with the blanket and laughed so hard she trembled.
What happened at the Qianqing Palace last night was truly shocking.
Concubine Xitala had diarrhea when she was serving the emperor.
Was it a coincidence, or was it a setup?
If someone was plotting against her, then who was it that was scheming against Consort Xitala?
It seems that any concubine in the palace could scheme against Consort Xitala.
After all, after Consort Xitala gained favor, she became the target of everyone's hatred. The other concubines in the harem all hated her to the core. However, Consort Xitala was arrogant because of the favor she received and did not know how to restrain herself.
After laughing, Xu Lejin sat on the bed and muttered to herself, "Consort Xitala has lost so much face in front of the Emperor. From now on, she will never receive his favor again."
"Even Consort Xitala was too ashamed to show her face in the palace!"

"Hahaha, that's hilarious!"
Consort Zhao laughed so hard she was shaking, feeling a surge of pleasure.
That little vile woman, Xitala, used to be favored and acted arrogantly. I've long disliked her. Now she's suffered such a humiliating defeat in front of the emperor. Let's see how she'll ever face anyone again.
How could she then boast to others that she was favored by the Emperor?
Caiyue and Lianxing looked on with schadenfreude and said in a fawning tone, "Your Majesty, we heard that after Consort Xitala was sent back to Yongshou Palace, she had diarrhea all night and was completely exhausted. She is now lying in bed half-dead."
Hahahahaha.
Upon hearing this, Consort Zhao burst into laughter, clutching her handkerchief.
As she laughed, suddenly, Consort Zhao's expression turned strange. She felt a lump in her throat, unable to breathe, and with her eyes closed, she gracefully turned her body to the side and fell straight down.
Caiyue and Lianxing were taken aback.
Inside Chuxiu Palace, everything immediately sprang into action, with people scrambling about in a flurry of activity.
