Consort Ji's expression changed, and her hands involuntarily clenched.
Taking a deep breath, Consort Ji smiled and said, "Yes, what Consort Hui said is indeed true. Consort Jing, it is Consort Jing's good fortune. Last month, when His Majesty visited my palace, I happened to be unwell, so I asked Consort Jing to serve His Majesty."
