Si Jun glanced at Bai Lu, then at Zhan Xuerou.
In his heart, it didn't matter who was responsible for this matter; what he cared about was weighing the value of the two women.
All the evidence in this matter pointed to Bai Lu.
Si Jun looked at Bai Lu and said, "This matter cannot be completely separated from the Princess, but it's just an ignorant maid who died—dead is dead. However, as the family's Madam, if this incident were to spread, it would damage the reputation of the royal mansion. A minor punishment for now: ten days of confinement to reflect on your mistake."
Bai Lu wanted to plead her innocence, but upon thinking that her morning sickness might occur during these ten days and that she wouldn't have to see Si Jun, it seemed like less trouble anyway, so she could only swallow her grievances.
Si Jun resolved the matter and departed, leaving Bai Lu and Zhan Xuerou alone.
Bai Lu glared fiercely at Zhan Xuerou, but Zhan Xuerou lowered her gaze, avoiding her stare.
