Ji Yunlai looked at the scene with pity and glanced at Steward Li, signaling his trusted aide to go towards Steward Li to apprehend him.
Before he could reach Steward Li, the steward had already started to leave, ranting out loud as he went that Consort De was being unfair, ignorant of the palace rules, showing partiality, and he would seek justice from the Noble Consort.
Upon hearing the words "Noble Consort," he faltered, hesitant to advance.
But in his moment of hesitation, he saw Consort De grab three flying darts from nearby and casually throw them toward Steward Li, frightening him so severely that he went pale with shock.
Steward Li turned ashen, frozen with fear, momentarily forgetting how to react, and the words he had been saying halted mid-sentence.
The others in the room were shocked by what they saw, having heard rumors that Consort Xu De would take up a whip and lash out at people on a whim, but today they witnessed that it wasn't just lashing out—this was lethal!
