Rose held Hongzhou in her arms and coaxed him hard. The other concubines looked at Sun Miaoqing as if she were a god, not understanding how she dared to touch the tiger's whiskers.
“I’m talking about you, not Hongzhou. Don’t think you can get away with this by making trouble and bringing the child along.”
Sun Miaoqing said aggrievedly, "When I hold a grudge, you say I'm petty, but when I don't, you get upset."

She spoke softer and softer, and only Consort Hua, who was close by, overheard the gist of it, struggling to suppress her laughter.
