Pei Zixian saw that everyone's expressions had turned hostile, and she immediately began to cry and apologize.
"I'm sorry, Jingyi, I... didn't mean it earlier."
Pei Shu'er coldly said, "Oh? So you're saying that a concubine's daughter bullying a legitimate daughter was intentional? Tut tut tut, what a well-taught daughter by the concubine mother."
Pei Zixian's face changed when Pei Shu'er involved her concubine mother. Gone was her earlier arrogance, and she kept apologizing.
Her demeanor became increasingly humble, and this time she was genuinely crying.
A feeling of fear.
Tang Zan's voice was cold: "I feel that this matter is still a family affair of the Pei household. Princess Consort should not interfere too much. I'll just mention it to Father-in-law later."
At these words, the hearts of the concubine-born sons and daughters of the Pei household leaped.
It was as if their lives were being claimed.
These people repeatedly apologized.
