Having been Emperor for over 40 years and now at the age of 64, Emperor Xuan had weathered countless storms throughout his reign. He had witnessed all sorts of rumors and scandals.
If the rumor had gained traction, it meant that there was some truth behind it. While spreading rumors about the Primus might not be too scandalous, spreading rumors about the Tian Family's Elder Miss would be a great humiliation for them.
However, the fact that even the Crown Prince was aware of the rumor indicated that it had likely spread throughout the city. The Tian Family's reputation would be greatly tarnished if the rumor persisted.
Emperor Xuan found the whole situation intriguing. After all, he had appointed the Primus of the new cohort, and he knew that the Primus remained loyal to his wife. His decision had been correct.
