"Your Highness! You have no idea, the entire Capital City is abuzz with rumors, saying that Ji Suisui is a jinx, said to bring disasters wherever she appears!"
"Nonsense! What kind of rubbish is this?
Who dares to spread such rumors?
Once I find out, I will surely punish them for spreading malicious lies!"
The Empress Dowager was furious upon hearing this, slamming the table with authority, her regal aura exploding forth, her anger commanding respect!
"Your Highness, spare me, forgive my sin, this wasn't said by my humble self! Please pardon me!"
Seeing the Empress Dowager's rage, the Duchess of Zhenguo knew her tactic worked, though it seemed the Empress Dowager didn't believe Ji Suisui was truly a jinx!
But if she added fuel to the fire, the Empress Dowager would surely believe it!
"It wasn't you who said it, but such rumors must have a source, right?
Why don't you tell me, what else have they said about Xiaosui's case?"
