After asking Eunuch Ding to take back the tiger talisman, An Jingzhi asked, "Have you seen your elder brother before you came?"
An Shaolin said respectfully, "Yes."
“That’s thoughtful.”
An Jingzhi looked at the heroic An Shaolin, a young man in his thirties, with a dignified appearance and a reserved temperament. He didn't look like a general who could go into battle and kill the enemy.

He Shengda's heart skipped a beat. "Does His Majesty have any instructions?"
"Ms. He married the Crown Prince two years ago, and now she has no children. If Master He wishes, I can order them to divorce, and Ms. He can marry someone else."
