Such a Coincidence

Princess Consort was noticeably displeased when the matter was brought up. She was on the verge of trying to dissuade Princess Shuangfu when the latter happily exclaimed, "That's wonderful! Thank you, Crown Prince and Princess Consort! I would be immensely grateful if Madame Shao could accompany me!"

Princess Consort: "…"

"Have you thoroughly considered this?"

Princess Shuangfu didn't notice Princess Consort's furrowed brow. With her head down and a joyous smile on her face, she fiddled with her hair in front of her chest. It was apparent that her happiness had taken precedence over all other considerations.

Princess Consort grew exasperated, but her decorum and dignified image restrained her from using forceful language. She responded calmly, "If that is your choice, then so be it. Prepare yourself for the wedding, and if you require anything, have someone inform me. I have matters to attend to and will take my leave."
