Aunt Su knelt on the ground, "Yes, yes—"
"Just the day before I was given to you, a nanny came to me and said that I would be bestowed upon the Heir of the Duke of England tomorrow."
"She asked me to find ways to disrupt the relationship between you and your wife and win your favor."
"She also told me not to fear, just to do it boldly, as there would be nobility from the palace backing me."
Jiang Zhongxing squinted, "Nobility?"
"Which nobility?"
Aunt Su shook her head, "I don't know, but I dared not disobey the nanny."
Jiang Zhongxing thought for a moment and knew this matter couldn't have been directly ordered by the Emperor himself. The Emperor always proclaimed his benevolence, claiming to rule the nation with compassion. He must have just mentioned his troubles to someone, who then took action on his behalf.
Ultimately, it matters little who this person is; they are just tools in the Emperor's hands.
