Upon hearing Dongfang Lianhua speak back to Noble Princess Consort Xiao, Dongfang Li spoke with dissatisfaction.
"Dongfang Lianhua, how dare you be so disrespectful to my Queen Mother."
"Seventh Prince, Noble Princess Consort Xiao was conferred by the Emperor, and I was personally granted the title of Princess by the late Emperor. She is your Queen Mother, but I am also your aunt. Considering our status and seniority, you have no place to lecture me."
Dongfang Lianhua stood there, her gaze cold and unafraid as she looked at Noble Princess Consort Xiao and her son.
Dongfang Li was at a loss for words for a moment.
"Seventh, you are not entitled to speak here."
Emperor Yongye's brow was tightly furrowed, his majestic eye filled with worry as he stared at the quarters.
Feng Bailing stepped out, attracting the gazes of many, some filled with concern and others with schadenfreude.
"Ah Ling, how is the Empress Dowager's illness?"
Dongfang Lianhua quickly asked.
