SLAP!

You were quite surprised to see two palace consorts arguing just outside the Rear Palace. Lady Lihua and Lady Gyokuyou, both the primary consorts of the Emperor, making such a scene. It seemed like Lady Lihua was fuming, blaming Lady Gyokuyou for the reason of her unborn son's sudden passing—believing that she had cursed her due to jealousy that she couldn't give birth to a son.

For a simple servant girl like you, every part of this was amusing. However, it didn't take you a while to realize that the true cause of Lady Lihua's miscarriage was probably because of her prolonged exposure to a poisonous face-whitening powder, which also caused her to have a severe illness—and not some curse put on by anyone, especially a fellow consort.

Geez, were all palace women like this? Always so scandalous.

Whatsoever, you needed to think of a discreet way on how to notify the higher ups about the possible danger.

Michikatsu, the well-known Moon Prince, was also there; carefully examining the situation between the two consorts. He was there mainly to stop the both of them as he was the palace's eunuch manager—but he seemed to be analyzing the scenario rather than actually taking action.
