Because of the Shu family's incident, the Empress lost face in front of His Majesty, feeling guilty and short of breath; she was not willing to appear in front of His Majesty recently, thinking to wait for some time before His Majesty's anger subsided.
But now the matter concerned her son, she hesitated whether to go see His Majesty or not.
When the Empress thought of her brother and nephew, she trembled with anger, and at these moments, she envied Noble Consort Li.
Although Li Ji from the Li family suffered misfortune, Empress Dowager Li was still there to support them.
As long as Empress Dowager Li was present, Noble Consort Li would always feel secure; even if His Majesty did not like Prince Xiang, he was still more valued in the eyes of the courtiers compared to their children.
The more the Empress thought about it, the angrier she became, and her face could not look good.
