The Second Lady of the Chu Family nodded in understanding.
She knew all of this.
When the Crown Prince Consort needed something, she would always ask her maid to pass it on to her at the mansion. Although the maid never gave the message explicitly, the Second Lady of the Chu Family knew pretty well what she meant. Born by a concubine, the Second Lady of the Chu Family grew up, at the mansion, after all, and she had witnessed those tricks. The Second Lady of the Chu Family was definitely going to make the conflict happen.
The moment she received the message, she had spoken with the noble ladies from different mansions, telling them what they should do. Apart from herself, all the other ladies understood the current situation - they were going to do what the Crown Prince Consort asked them to.
The Court and their homes were in the same situation.
