After Censor Chen finished his generous speech, he looked at Xia Zhengqi provocatively.
"Your Majesty, please revoke your order!" Censor Su, who was also known for his pedantry, said loudly.
"I second the motion!" Several censors echoed.
[Pooh, pooh, pooh! A woman shouldn't serve two husbands! How dare you say that.]
[As I recall, your father died young, and your mother remarried twice. Your last name is Chen. Isn't that your stepfather's last name?]
