"You have a point. Consort Zhuang will just have to get over it. With such a troublesome younger sister—her own flesh and blood—it's not like she can just beat her to death, can she?" Consort Shu tried her best to suppress the excitement in her voice, though she didn't seem to be succeeding.
'Oh well. Not everyone can be as thick-skinned as Song Yunzhao.'
Song Yunzhao fell silent for a moment when she heard Consort Shu say "beat her to death." 'This consort is as brazen as ever,' she thought.
'Considering Wang Xuanfan and the Right Minister have always been rivals, it's perfectly normal for Consort Shu to be this happy.'
"Indeed, she wouldn't have the heart to kill her and be done with it," Song Yunzhao replied. "However, even though the marriage alliance between the Wang and Ji Families fell through, the Left Minister might not necessarily stand by and do nothing to help Lord Wang."
