Bai Shan refused without a second thought, "I won't go, and you mustn't either."
Seeing his determination, Manbao asked, "Why?"
"I want to know why the Emperor suddenly wants us to present a memorial during Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"Didn't the letter say? The reunion festival of Mid-Autumn makes it easier to move the hearts of the people," Manbao said. "He will stand up for us then."
"I don't believe him."
Manbao was stunned, asking doubtfully, "Why?"
"Because he is the Emperor," Bai Shan said. "He ascended to the throne while the Crown Prince was severely ill, and both the late Emperor and the Crown Prince favored the Third Prince. Manbao, not everyone in the world is like us, able to do what they say they will. Even if they have the power to act, they lack the desire to see it through."
Mr. Zhuang nodded slightly on the side.
"I will never entrust our lives to someone I have never met, especially not to an Emperor."
