The system completely ignored her complaints.

Gu Jiangli exhaled a breath of stale air.
Consort Shu looked at Gu Jiangli, who had suddenly stopped talking, with even more doubts.
Before she could even ask, Gu Jiangli seemed to be possessed by someone; his elegant demeanor vanished instantly!
Her body went limp, and she knelt down so quietly that not a sound could be heard, as if she had been kneeling there for a long time.
And in Gu Jiangli's eyes, there was a misty haze!
So much so that when she opened her mouth, her voice was choked with emotion, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
"Your Majesty, when have I ever said such treasonous words? His Majesty's favor is nothing short of a blessing from heaven for the concubines in the harem. How could I not like it?"

How come I barely said a few words and Gu Jiangli said them all?
Seeing her pretentious expression, Consort Shu was even more furious.
"You, Gu Jiangli! What are you pretending for! You were just saying..."
A sudden roar from outside the door interrupted her from what she was about to say.
