It was just a groundless accusation, but it was enough for the people of the palace to gossip for a while.
An empress and a noble consort, especially when they had already caused a huge ruckus previously, were like needles against wheat. Now that one of them was dead, the other was naturally the ultimate suspect.
They just wanted to watch the show and gossip. Who cared if there was evidence? The judge just felt that it was natural.
No one took it seriously. They just wanted to talk happily.
However, if this matter was brought to Empress Dowager Pan and even Princess Xuancheng knew about it, it was likely that this matter would spread to more than one or two people.
