"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. I was only born a few years later than Your Majesty Rong."
"...Beauty Heng is quite good at talking."
"Thank you, Empress Rongfei, for the compliment."
Seeing that Bai Yuzhi was about to anger Concubine Rong to death, the Queen was naturally happy to see it happen. However, Concubine Rong's years of being the most favored in the six palaces were not in vain, and immediately some vassals began to build up momentum for her.
