Avina coughed into her fist. "Oh? Is she all better already? I should send my congratulations."

Bai Zhenli smiled. He gave her a meaningful look and said, "My dear Empress, you're focusing on the wrong thing. Your sister, Qin Meirong, was and is not sick."

Avina wasn't willing to let her cover get blown that easily. "My, what malicious slander you heard. Qin Meirong suffered greatly, who would dare spout such a lie?"

'Let me find them and unleash my fury on them!' Avina shouted in her heart. 'He wouldn't have discovered the lie so quickly if not for them.'
