ed a spark of hope in him, but judging from how things had turned out today, it was apparent that the Emperor did not harbor that sort of interest in Tong’er.

Madam Li was exasperated at his cowardice.

“Why should we surrender to fate? How do you know it’ll be fruitless if we don’t even try? If the Emperor really had no feelings for Tong’er, why didn’t he punish her after all that shame she’d inflicted on him back then? He only put up a front today because the Empress was there.”

Madam Li was smug to see that she had successfully convinced him.

All men cared about their future, and very few, if any, could give up their ambition.

Li Wei looked troubled.
“The Emperor’s always in the palace and barely comes out.
Unless he summons Tong’er, how will she find a chance to meet him?”
