I am happy with ending. Did the ML lost his all assets? Why didn't the king declared him with a clean sheet?
I guess that's because of the previous public humiliation of his. Maybe the public would revolt because he was declared a corrupt official. The subtitles were terrible but I guess San Lang asked him if he would want to work again but Jiang Chang Yang denied by saying that he would travel with his wife and help him indirectly by spying or something instead of working directly before.
