Ji Nanjue nodded lightly as Lin Jinyu stood beside him, dressed in a bright red robe embroidered with a phoenix.
"So this is the legendary Eastern Emperor!"
"HISS, the Eastern Emperor who doesn't take concubines! It's said his affection for the Empress is immeasurable!"
"The Eastern Emperor is too handsome, like a woman."

Su Bei wore a strange expression. Queen Lin looking at me... I don't really mind. As for Ji Nanjue, I've only met him once... and the way he's looking at me is oddly unsettling.
"The Emperor of South Wind Ancient Country, the South Emperor!"
"And the Chief Guard of South Wind Ancient Country's royal guard, Mo Liu!"
The South Emperor did indeed match the image Su Bei had in mind: a middle-aged man with a scholarly appearance.
