Wang Chong was the first person who had ever dared to say such things

In truth, Consort Taizhen's situation was very poor!

Both the Consort Taizhen incident and the Sage Emperor's favor displayed a Consort Taizhen that shone with boundless radiance, but in reality, whether she was in court or in the palace, Consort Taizhen was under a very heavy pressure

In the Imperial Court, no small number of ministers still objected to her Many people did not outwardly protest, but they still grumbled in private Thus, Consort Taizhen had always endeavored to remove herself from court politics so as to avoid the dissatisfaction of those ministers

And in the palace, Consort Taizhen had been suddenly proe E to oppose all his ministers for her

The concubines and consorts had already reached their breaking point

If not for their fear of the Sage Emperor, the Three Palaces and Six Courts1, the numerous consorts and concubines would have joined hands to assault her long ago

Consort Taizhen knew this, so in the vast confines of the Imperial Palace, she spent her tiardens, and a few other places she sometimes frequented Otherwise, she did her utmost to keep her distance from all the other consorts and concubines

There was no association, and certainly no relationship

The rejection and hostility in the palace were invisible, but Consort Taizhen could clearly feel the en from the palaces and courts This topic was one of her taboos

No one had ever dared to say such things in front of her, not even Yang Zhao But now, Wang Chong had exposed this one too far!"

Wang Chong's pricking of this pain point had caused Consort Taizhen's expression to freeze into a sheet of ice Even Yang Zhao's expression hadlooks

This bastard scoundrel, did he go crazy today?

Not even he dared to bring up this topic, because Consort Taizhen was not only his younger cousin, but also a consort of the palace

Wang Chong's boldness was a little too h I came for the sake of the Fifth Prince, it was also out of consideration for Your Majesty Since Your Majesty believes that this lowly subject is speaking nonsense, Wang Chong will say nobids farewell!"

Surprisingly, Wang Chong se His expression noran to retreat out of the hall

Just when Wang Chong was prepared to leave, a voice ca to stop

"Wait a moment! Halt for this consort!"

In the upper reaches of the palace, Consort Taizhen's eyes were shifting Although her expression was still icy, her attitude was now co, since you said that you were also considering this consort in your thoughts, I will give you one chance Speak—just how are you thinking about ive your reasons, don't bla rude"

These words were utterly unexpected Yang Zhao twisted his head around to glance up at Consort Taizhen, unable to conceal the astonish, who had his back to Consort Taizhen, gave a faint s completely unsurprised Consort Taizhen now had a most esteemed status, and as a consort, she wielded massive authority

But in the end, she was still a woman

Perhaps she had no interest in the Fifth Prince's affairs, but she was certainly interested in her own

"Haha, Your Majesty!"
