Answer- The emperor said that his wife was beautiful.
- Indirect speech is used when we want to report what a person said without necessarily repeating their exact words.
- In changing direct speech to indirect speech, one should remove the quotation marks and change the tense of the words in the quotation to match the tense of the words outside
- Since the words "The emperor said" are in the simple past tense, we should change the tense of the words in the quotation to go one step back- from simple present to simple past.
