Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

Surprised to see the person coming to visit him, Howard knelt and bowed. "Your Majesty, how can I be of service?" he said in a trembling voice.

"That's enough. You don't have to bow to me now," the emperor said at once. Andy immediately fetched a chair for the emperor to sit. Howard was in the cell while the emperor was on the outside. Then the emperor ordered, "All of you can leave now."
