Consort Zhou truly did not expect that, despite her constant vigilance day and night, the one she least guarded against would be her own daughter. Yet today, it was her daughter who caused such a scandal.
"Mother, please calm down. Besides, mother did not say anything untrue. Even Mrs. Dong said, with many Madams listening, that Lin Youning was being disrespectful. It's only right for mother to reprimand her, as mother is the Empress of the nation. Now she claims her pregnancy is disturbed, but I believe it's clearly an act, just to tarnish mother's reputation. Such a person is ill-intentioned, and mother should be angry with her. I am mother's own daughter, yet mother is not supporting me and is siding with outsiders." Princess Yuanhua said, feeling aggrieved.
