The Rumors That Became The Truth For People

In the yellow robes, Emperor Zhao Wang Lei entered the banquet hall while holding Empress Qin Wenya who looked much younger than her age in a very beautiful designed yellow dress.

The prince and princess stood up from their seats and bowed their heads. The ministers kneeled down on the floor to pay respects.

Li Rui who had just got up and about to kneel was stopped by Xi Ying. Still, in a bent position, she looked at him with confusion.

He merely shook his head and made her stand up straight then bowed his head indicating her to do the same.

All the while his hand held her hand as he whispered firmly

"You don't need to kneel down. If you don't want to bow then you don't need to do that also."

The Emperor had himself exempted him from paying respects. Bowing his head was his own choice as he knew that as a subject to the Emperor he should do that.

If he doesn't want to do it, then he could stop also.
