Song Jialun's POV
I was surprised because of what Cai Lin stated. I know what she feels? What did she mean by that?
"Have you heard a rumor around the city, my lord? A rumor that a woman was rejected on the day of her wedding and the groom summons some soldiers to stop the bride's envoy. Have you heard of that?" she asks bitterly.
I frowned and tried to control my reaction. Cai Lin was trying to see my reaction after she said her statement.
"I haven't heard. My father and I were busy with military and security issues for our empire. We have no time to listen to rumors or murmurs from the folks," I simply replied.
The truth is, I've heard of that, but I am truly uninterested in such gossip. She laughs and shakes her head.
She continues to drink her wine. We did that in silence for a moment. I start to get dizzy and drunk when Cai Lin starts to tell me her story.
