Lady Northern Feng didn't look intimidating at all in front of the empress dowager. Crouching down, she gently took the empress dowager's hand with a bright smile.
The empress dowager snorted, then pointed at Concubine Oriole and said in an unfriendly tone, "Even Concubine Oriole says that Feng Wu of yours is a bully!"
Lady Northern Feng was displeased. "That's not true."
The empress dowager frowned. "What do you mean? I heard that she was behind all the dirty things Xuanyuan did! "
Lady Northern Feng chuckled. "Your Majesty, don't tell me you're talking about what happened between Lady Cai and Zuo Qingliu?"
The empress dowager snorted.
Lady Northern Feng chuckled. "That's strange. How does Lady Cai and Zuo Qingliu's affair have anything to do with Xiao Wu? Do you think Xiao Wu could've kept them together? "
The empress dowager agreed with her.
Empress Dugu gave Concubine Oriole a look.
Empress Dugu had learned her lesson. She wanted to maintain her dignity as the mother of the nation, while Concubine Oriole fought for her.
Covering her mouth with her handkerchief, Concubine Oriole said, "Lady Northern Feng, isn't everyone saying that Feng Wu set Lady Cai and Young Master Zuo up on purpose?"
That's the truth, but do you have any proof? Keep your mouth shut if you don't!
Lady Northern Feng couldn't be more displeased with this Concubine Oriole.
However —
She wasn't going to behave so violently in front of the empress dowager. Taking the empress dowager's hand, Lady Northern Feng said in a gentle voice, "I don't understand. Why would Xiao Wu set Lady Cai and Zuo Qingliu up? There has to be a motive, right? "
The empress dowager nodded. That was right. There had to be a motive.
Hence, the empress dowager looked at Concubine Oriole in bewilderment.
Would Concubine Oriole dare say that Xuanyuan Ying had set Feng Wu up? Did she dare?!
Before Concubine Oriole could say anything, Lady Northern Feng launched her second salvo.
"Moreover, as you said, Xiao Wu is stupid and has a low cultivation level. How could she set up a woman of the Xuanyuan family in their territory? Concubine Oriole, do you think that's possible? "
Concubine Tan laughed dryly and was about to speak —
Lady Northern Feng went on to ask, "Her Ladyship said that Xiao Wu is abusing her power. Who do you think she's using? Me? Concubine Oriole, do you think that I, who was present at that time, am indulging her? "
Concubine Oriole was about to explain, when Lady Northern Feng took the empress dowager's hand and cried, "Your Majesty, that's what Concubine Oriole thinks of me. I – I don't want to live anymore …"
Concubine Oriole and Empress Dugu looked at each other in silence.
Empress Dugu was used to it. Lady Northern Feng hadn't been the empress dowager's favorite all these years for nothing.
Patting Lady Northern Feng's hand, the empress dowager didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You silly girl. The north wind blows, and it rains.
Lady Northern Feng said, "Your Majesty, I feel so wronged."
The empress dowager patted her hand and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm not talking about you. Why are you so upset?"
"I feel sorry for Xiao Wu. She didn't do anything, but when other people get into trouble, they just want to drag her down with them. What does it have to do with her?" The more Lady Northern Feng spoke, the more aggrieved she became. "Moreover, you made her Princess Feng Wu yourself. Are you just going to let her be slandered like this?"
