Chapter 27
"Acts that men would not consider shameful, women should not be ashamed of either. Because these rules were all set by men, for their own benefit."

"......"

"And you! Pei Changying! You betrayed me long ago, and I never want to go back to that place for the rest of my life!"

Gu Sang's heart-wrenching words struck everyone present with stunned silence, their minds going blank.

Even the ministers who had condemned Gu Sang for being shameless were rendered speechless!

Because.

To their astonishment, they could not find words to refute her.

Yes.

Why was it that?

Why were acts permissible for men considered sins for women?

Who made these rules?

On what grounds were they made?

The consorts fell silent, their eyes downcast in a daze, glancing at the cold palace and the open sky, their eyes reddening terribly.

Gu Sang's words.

They were like a flame, igniting the ancient women's suppressed resentment and defiance!

They were also like a splash of icy water, instantly dousing Pei Changying's fury.

And accompanying that, a tinge of guilt towards Gu Sang.

He had once promised to make her the empress, vowing to spend his life with her, only to marry Gu Qingrou in the end.

He had broken his promise.

"Gu Sang, I betrayed you only because you forced my hand."

"You offended me countless times, and if not for the fact that we were once husband and wife, I would have demoted you from a consort long ago, let alone allow you to become an imperial consort!"

"And those words you just spoke were utter nonsense! Women are meant to be subordinate to men, how dare you compare yourself to us?"

Pei Changying's implication was that he did not make Gu Sang the empress because of her own repeated mistakes.

She should be grateful to have retained her position as an imperial consort.

And she should not entertain such foolish ideas anymore.

She should hurry back to his side, for her world views were all wrong - men were the superiors of women.

Foolish woman.

Hopeless.

Gu Sang ignored Pei Changying's raving and shifted her gaze back to the screen, where she saw Lu Mufei approaching with a bottle of mineral water.

"Xiao Sang, have you finished filming your scenes?"

The director came over and responded, "Not yet, there are a few more scenes to go. At Gu Sang's pace, we should be able to wrap up the filming this afternoon."

"Haha Mu Fei, I have to thank you this time. If you hadn't introduced her, I would never have found such a talented actress."

Lu Mufei looked surprised.

The director was notorious for his strict standards when it came to the works he filmed. He had only heard of the director making actors cry, never praising a newcomer.

And to even call Gu Sang an "actress" - if he didn't know the director's character, he would have thought the director was just exaggerating.

"If there are any future short films, please consider Gu Sang."
