The emperor knew he was asking for an audience and frowned: "It's already dark, isn't he tired?"
Fu Qi knew that the emperor was just complaining, but he still had to see him.
Soon, Shen Shoufu was brought in and was glared at by the emperor: “You’d better have something big to say.”
Shen Shoufu nodded: “Yan Bao was kidnapped!”
The emperor almost bit his tongue: "Who is so audacious as to kidnap my precious daughter..." When Prime Minister Shen raised his eyebrows, the emperor confidently changed his words: "My daughter-in-law."
