"Noble Lady Jin heard it right," Bai Fen joined in. "The sound of the wheels was so loud that no one would not hear it passing by."
Hui Na followed suit by saying, "Last night, the emperor did not turn over the sign, so who was actually picked up by the Imperial Favor Carriage?"
(*The Imperial Favor Carriage: It is a special carriage used by the emperor to take the concubine to the emperor's bedroom when he summons the concubine to attend the bed.)
"Could it be the noble consort?" Bai Fen asked aloud, then gave out a sarcastic sigh. "The emperor has always doted on the noble concubine, after all."
These people's words were simply saying that Yue Ran's domination over the emperor was over and that it was time for the emperor to favor another. The sound of the Imperial Favor Carriage last night must have been to fetch the emperor's new lover over to attend to the bed and not Yue Ran.
