It made Shuang Xi feel that if she did not let her in to see her Consort, she would kneel here and never leave.
The little bit of friendliness he had towards her previously had completely disappeared with her current lack of propriety. He looked at her coldly, "You clearly know that my Lady Consort is seriously injured, yet you still let her care about your trivial matters. Since Wu Zhaoyi wants to kneel, then continue to kneel!"
"You stay here and take a good look! If she barges in, I will hold you responsible! "
She glared at the palace maid beside her, only to see the palace maid nodding in fright, "Sister Shuang Xi, don't worry, this servant will definitely watch over Wu Zhaoyi."
With her guarantee, Shuang Xi entered the hall without looking back.
He told Shen Yueji everything that had happened outside.
Actually, she was sitting in the main hall and was not far from it. Shen Yueji could roughly hear the arguments outside.
"What is this Wu Zhaoyi's background?"
"She is the daughter of a third-ranked official in the imperial court. Her family is in the capital and is loved by the common people. After entering the palace, this Wu Zhaoyi did not spoil and did not take the initiative to curry favor with any of the consorts. After being in the palace for so many days, this servant has not seen her getting close to any of the consorts in the inner palace."
"I just don't understand why she suddenly came to see you today. Moreover, this servant saw that her words were flustered and her expression revealed fear, as if something had happened. Your Highness, do you want to see her? If Your Highness does not intend to see her, this servant will find an excuse to reject her. "
She was just a third-ranked Zhaoyi. With her Consort's status, it would not be difficult to chase her away.
Shen Yueji hesitated for a moment. The crying outside was still going on. It did not seem to be an act, but the crying of a person who had really reached that point of despair. The voice was hoarse and the crying was sorrowful, like a person who had nowhere to go.
She pondered for a moment, "Let her in first."
"Yes, Your Highness."
With Shen Yueji's permission, Shuang Xi went outside to let her in.
Wu Zhaoyi's face lit up when she heard that Shuang Xi was willing to let her in. She quickly got up from the ground and followed Shuang Xi carefully into the main hall.
After taking off her graceful and gorgeous attire, Shen Yueji was only wearing a thin coat at this moment. Her beautiful face didn't have any makeup on, but it was still elegant, refined, and beautiful.
Wu Zhaoyi didn't dare to look at it for too long. She only took one look before she lowered her head and bowed respectfully, "Your servant greets the Imperial Consort."
"Wu Zhaoyi?"
Shen Yueji looked at her indifferently.
The woman in front of him couldn't be said to be extremely alluring, but she was still a pretty girl from a humble family. She was dressed in plain clothes, and her face didn't have the domineering aura of a superior.
"I'm here …"
Wu Zhaoyi lowered her head humbly. Her pretty face still had traces of tears that had yet to dry, and she looked pitiful.
"This consort has never had any dealings with you before. You took advantage of this consort's severe injuries to run over to this consort's Phoenix Perch Palace and throw a tantrum. Those who don't know would think that this consort has bullied you. What? What happened that made you give up what is near at hand and seek for what is far away? You didn't go to see the Emperor and the Empress, but ran over to see this consort? Do you have to tell this to this consort? "
Wu Zhaoyi trembled and knelt on the ground. Without Shen Yueji's permission, she didn't dare to get up. She just lowered her head, "Before this consort entered the palace, I had heard some rumors about the harem."
