People tend to reminisce about the past as they age, and Yan Huangjiu, a formidable ruler in his time, was no exception.
In his younger years, badly injured by an enemy, he took refuge in a small city where he met Yan Qingxue's mother. He was deeply moved by her tender care.
However, he was no ordinary man, but the City Lord of Mount Shang City. He couldn't abandon the empire he had built single-handedly.
At that time, Mount Shang City was facing a major crisis, and even Yan Huangjiu had been gravely wounded by enemies.
Originally, Yan Huangjiu planned to bring Yan Qingxue's mother and her to Mount Shang city once he had stabilized the situation. However, this plan was delayed for ten years.
By the time Mount Shang City's standing was completely secured in Xiangnan, Yan Qingxue's mother had sadly passed away from a sudden illness.
