"Concubine has sinned. Xiaohong grew up with me, and I treat her dearly. Although I know she is overbearing, considering our years of fellowship, I could not bear to be too harsh, leading to a grave mistake!"
"It's all because of my poor supervision. Please, Empress, punish me!"
Su Luo nodded and turned to Guo Chun: "And you, what is your opinion?"
Guo Chun bit her lip: "My sister surely did not intentionally allow the maid to insult me. Ultimately, it was Xiaohong's arrogance that caused all this. Please, Empress, forgive my sister this time!"
Su Luo chuckled lightly: "You are indeed magnanimous!"
Her gaze was stern as she glanced at the two sisters kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice: "According to me, you both are at fault!"
"Guo Yin, your mistake lies in not restraining your maid. Knowing her nature, you still let her associate with Guo Chun! As a Concubine, a legitimate Lady of the Minister Residence, yet you can't even control your maid!"
