Although I don't care what others think of my appearance, I feel that if I don't show up again, the rumors will only spread more and more. What do you think, Concubine Shu?"
The queen suddenly changed the subject and brought the topic to Shen Wangshu.
For a moment, the atmosphere became a little subtle.
Everyone looked at the two most powerful women in the harem, secretly speculating about the struggle between them, but did not dare to speak rashly.
Shen Wangshu's expression remained calm. She met the queen's gaze and smiled slightly.
"I agree with the Empress's thoughts. Indeed, if these rumors are not dealt with, they may become more and more excessive and detrimental to the stability of the harem."

In this case, her ugliness will be exposed to everyone, and it must not be a pleasant feeling to be laughed at by others.
Shen Wangshu nodded slightly, the smile on his lips deepened a little, and his eyes flashed with a hint of meaning.
