Wu Jinmai's POV
I sneak out again as I always do. My husband was busy in his office. That's why I took that chance to leave using the secret passage instead of leaving through the main gate. I also heard that he summoned the royal consorts. I was riding the previous Emperor's horse.
He seems to know who I am. He was one of the fastest horses inside the palace. I am using my male alter ego, Li Cheng. I want to speak with Su Ming Xi. I want to know if they're preparing their wedding pretty well. I will also check Song Jialun.
I grabbed the leash and pulled it up, telling my horse to stop. I was already in the market when an old man was being stoned by children.
"Stop that, everyone!" I roared.
The children look at me, and they run away. I jump off the horse and walks closer to where the man is. His head was bleeding, and he was full of bruises. He also stinks. He bows his head.
