Concubine Xu had failed to scheme against Yao Yao. Instead, she had implicated herself and the Third Prince.
Not only did the Xu Residence not think that they were in the wrong, but they also blamed the Yu Residence for making a fuss and causing Consort Xu and the Third Prince to be imprisoned.
The Duke Rong's Residence had been stripped of its title and Yao Yao had been conferred the title of County Lord of Shaoyi. The Xu family naturally thought that the person who had benefited was the Yu Residence.
The Yu Residence shouldn't have been putting on airs. They should have happily accepted the "compensation" from the Xu Residence and resolved their past grudges with them.
Even the Yu Residence did not hold it against them. If the Xu Residence put in more effort, Imperial Concubine Xu and the Third Prince would regain their freedom as soon as possible.
What a good plan.
However, the Yu Residence did not fall for this.
