The Emperor and Empress were undoubtedly taken aback to hear that Ji Xiaosong's request was for a breakup letter.
They were, of course, well aware of Ji Xiaosong's family background.
They had assumed she would hesitate due to Prime Minister Ji's official position. After all, for a Crown Princess Consort, the backing of her maiden family would grant her a certain standing among the court's elite.
Between being the daughter of the Grand Secretary and being an orphan, anyone would choose the former.
The Emperor and Empress exchanged a glance. The Emperor's voice was grave as he asked, "Have you thought this through? I am aware the Ji family has neglected you, but the status of being the Grand Secretary's eldest legitimate daughter is a significant advantage for you."
