"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Consort Huo's sorrow momentarily subsided as she looked up with reddened eyes and asked.
The old palace maid replied, "I cannot say for certain whether it's true or not, but someone did overhear this outside the Empress' Bedchamber when Princess Zhao Yang's nanny was urging the princess not to be angry with Miss Mu. She said, 'The Empress Dowager has already made up her mind to send that slut to Liaodan for a marriage alliance. The princess needn't be irritated with her anymore. The prince of Liaodan is as savage as a bull, I'm afraid that the slut may not even make it to Liaodan but instead be killed by him on the journey.' Therefore, I infer that the Empress Dowager must have such an intention, otherwise, the nanny of Princess Zhao Yang wouldn't have spoken carelessly of this."
