Song Jialun's POV
I look at Head Inspector Su Ming Xi. His wife and mine were standing in front of me. "It looks like the emperor was more ruthless than the empress," I commented. Su Ming Xi sighed.
"All of her three husbands," he stated.
I won't disagree with what he said. They went on a trip, but the emperor and the other two royal consorts had secretly met the four of us. We are given a task that we should do while they're on a trip.
"He really wanted to suppress the rebellion on the eastern border secretly. The emperor indeed hides this problem from the empress too well," Cai Min commented.
"Let's leave now. We have to arrive at the east border tomorrow at noon. We can't delay anymore. Our citizens have suffered so much. We must end their sufferings, or else the emperor will snap our necks," I joke. They look at each other.
"Should I tell him your joke, Fu'jin?" Cai Lin jokes.
