Jiang Yue wasn't surprised.
"He has a really prominent family background."
"However," Xue Yan continued, "The Crown Prince had disappeared a long time ago, and by the time he was found, he had already been cut into pieces. When the Second Prince ascended the throne, the Shao family refused to accept it, thinking that it was all the Second Prince's mother, consort, and maternal grandfather's family's doing. They refused to submit and occupied the South, but they were unwilling to betray Da Ling and become the Emperor. In the end, six hundred thousand troops from other countries invaded from the South, but in order to protect Da Ling and the people, none of them survived."
Why were they all so miserable?
"Is the Crown Prince dead?" Jiang Yue asked after a moment of silence.
"No, he will only be found next year."
