Su Liang returned to Han Xiangyuan, carrying the Imperial Matrimonial Decree with her. Upon entering, Ren Dong immediately asked, "Mistress, do you think Emperor Liang might have ulterior motives?"
If Su Liang and Gu Ling, as servants of Qian Country, accepted the conferment by the Emperor of Liang Country, that would make them citizens of Liang Country in some sense.
Gu Ling's mother's lineage is the Royal Family of Liang Country, but Su Liang had no original connection with Liang Country whatsoever.
Su Liang put the Imperial Decree on the table, her eyes slightly cold, "Lord Gu should refuse."
"Then, Mistress, you should refuse this decree. If our emperor finds out, who knows what he might think?" Ren Dong was worried about the possible troubles Su Liang could face when she returned to Qian Country.
