This Empress, truly enjoys mocking others with her words.
Clearly, she saw her sister facing trouble earlier and deliberately took this path to help her out.
"Crazy."
Xiao Lingqiu spat out two words.
But just as she was turning away, her hip was suddenly smacked hard. A woman's laughter followed: "It's not nice to curse people behind their backs. If not for the fact that we're both women, I would have torn your mouth apart long ago."
Xiao Lingqiu turned abruptly, but the other woman had already walked far away.
Feeling the burning pain behind her, Xiao Lingqiu clenched her delicate fists tightly, her gaze icy as she stared at the woman's departing figure.
"You'll regret this!"
And so, the feud between the two Empress Dowagers was born.

Xiao Lingqiu returned to her chamber, sulking.
