"Quick, stop her!" After a while, the Empress finally calmed down and instructed urgently.
Treasure Bead, confused, asked, "Princess, who do you want to stop? Princess Qi?"
The Empress suddenly choked in her throat and could no longer utter a word.
Indeed, whom did she want to stop?
To stop Qi Yu, or that maid?
This is the Imperial Palace, what could she do to them in full view of everyone?
Clearly, Qi Yu knew this as well, which was why she had brazenly come to Jingyang Palace to threaten her, and even deliberately let her see that face.
Treasure Bead waited for quite some time but did not hear the Empress speak again, so she asked once more, "Princess?"
The Empress, exhausted, closed her eyes and waved her hand, "You may leave now, I am tired and need to rest."
Treasure Bead bowed her head and left, taking care to close the door behind her.
In the room, the Empress could no longer sit still. She clenched her fingers tightly, grasping the thin brocade quilt on her body.
