Su Luxi (29)

All sorts of things were happening all over the Empire and the capital had simply become a place of chaos underneath.  

However, none of the disturbances and undercurrents in the capital stopped the day of the coronation from coming. Time was like a river. No one should assume they could touch the same water there twice. Even though some people who could read fortunes and the skies or had knowledge of how the future would play out hope time could pause, there was no way their wish would come true. The day that Jiang Li, Rome Natividad, and Su Luxi looked forward to gradually neared.

Everything was pretty much set, even that one about the Royal Concubine position. After all, while it was unfortunate, Rumina could not refuse. No, she was not even given the chance to say her opinion because it was the Saintess who appointed her.
