The Princess Consort Min knelt, leaving Empress Dowager Wang completely bewildered.
"Look at you, we were just talking nicely, why did you kneel? Stand up, Lian Qiao, help the Princess Consort up."
Lian Qiao, upon hearing this, bent down to assist the Princess Consort Min, advising, "Lady Princess, if there's anything to discuss, let's do it seated, there's no need to kneel, the ground is cold."
The Princess Consort Min sat down again, looking at Empress Dowager Wang, and said apologetically, "This daughter-in-law is guilty and does not deserve such kindness from Mother. If it weren't for the insidious nature of the people from the former Xia faction, Mother wouldn't have suffered this misfortune. Thankfully, it was discovered in time...This daughter-in-law truly has no excuse for her mistakes."
