Consort Hui was speechless upon hearing this.
He secretly wondered, "She's just a palace maid, why is it so serious?"
Many palace maids have died in the palace over the years, and no one has investigated them. Why is it that the maids in the Imperial Noble Consort's palace...
A palace maid, once dead, is dead!
Consort Hui's heart immediately opened another door, and she respectfully said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will follow Your Highness's teachings. Your Highness's servant, Xu'er..."
