After all, Consort Ning had been her follower for so long.
Besides, women always preferred to befriend those more foolish, stout, and plain than themselves.
In Consort Ning's presence, she felt an absolute sense of superiority.
If the entire Harem were filled with women like Consort Ning, she would be deliriously happy.
Therefore, she was undeniably biased in her heart.
She had no intention of getting involved in this matter. Without even asking, she planned to muddle through it ambiguously.
To her surprise, the Emperor had sent someone over.
Little Zhuzi said respectfully, "Empress, the Emperor has decreed that he will have lunch in Jiaofang Hall and requests that the Empress prepare!"
The Empress was simply over the moon!
"Is it really true?"
Little Zhuzi immediately became even more deferential.
"Of course, it's true, Empress. Please prepare well!"
Upon receiving confirmation, the Empress was utterly delighted.
