"I don't understand?" The Empress tried to pretend to be clueless, but the Emperor interrupted her, "don't understand?! What is that Empress' Edict that's hanging on their door then? Who was the one who told them to stay in their courtyard until the wedding?"

The more he thought about it, the more enraged he became.

"I just thought that she would be a good match for our son," the Empress tried changing her tune when she realized that she could not pretend to be unknowing about it, but the Emperor was not satisfied.
