However.
All the concubines seemed to have agreed to stay far away from Ma Liyi.
Even Honored Lady Lu, who usually lived in the side hall of Xihuai Palace and diligently curried favor with Ma Liyi,
was currently sticking closely behind Consort Zheng, pretending not to see anything.
Afraid that getting too close would bring trouble upon themselves!
But Ma Liyi seemed completely unaware of everyone's alienation.
She remained immersed in her unrestrained pride, feeling superior among the crowd.
The concubines were once again speechless:
"This person is beyond help! It's better to stay away in the future!"
Everyone silently moved a little further away.
The procession continued forward.
Ningshou Palace was soon reached.
Sister Ma had already come out to greet them, ceremoniously paying respects.
"Greetings, Empress!"
Xia Ruqing descended from the Phoenix Sedan and said politely.
"Sister Ma, please rise!"
"Thank you, Empress!"
