After the people had been taken away, the Emperor felt a great sorrow in his heart. He didn't know if what he had done was right, he only wanted her to understand that even in his Harem, there was no absence of strife, just as this time had shown, whether or not it was her doing, she had fallen into the trap.
If she continued to be so naive and stubborn in the future, and he couldn't always be there to watch over her, what would he do if something like this happened again? Especially since, had he not arrived in time this time, he dared not imagine the consequences.
By placing her in the Imperial Prison, with him overseeing, at least she would be safe.
Seeing His Majesty staring motionlessly in the direction of the departed for a long time, Noble Consort's heart was filled with bitterness. If it was her who had been imprisoned, would His Majesty have felt heartache for her?
"Your Majesty~" The Noble Consort called out softly.
