?Chapter 424: Chapter 424 Your Majesty, Keep Calm Chapter 424: Chapter 424 Your Majesty, Keep Calm “Su Jin, bring me that peach-red robe,” ordered Consort Jing as she was dressing, frowning at the dark gray garment before her.

Su Jin did not move immediately but instead advised, “Your Majesty, didn’t His Majesty mention yesterday that he does not favor you in bright-colored clothes? Perhaps you could change into something else today?”

“I have worn dark colors all my life; what is wrong with wanting to wear something bright for a few days? Su Jin, are you truly my servant, or do you belong to someone else? If even you do not consider matters from my perspective, whom can I rely on?” Consort Jing’s voice was stern, and Su Jin, surprised by her strong reaction, quickly knelt down.

Consort Jing’s gaze snapped towards Su Jin, scrutinizing her intently.

“Your Majesty! I have never had such thoughts! I have always been loyally devoted to you!” Su Jin knelt down again, earnestly recounting her years of loyalty.

Consort Jing gave a soft smile, her fingers elegantly poised as her voice softened.
