Great Xia Imperial City, Taiji Palace.
Inside the main hall, Xia Xuanmin, with half-white hair, sat stern-faced behind the Dragon Bookcase.
Kneeling and bowing before him was none other than the Seventh Princess of Great Xia, Xia Yunzhao.
"Rise, we are family, there's no need for so many formalities."
A commanding voice called Xia Yunzhao to her feet.
"Yes, Grandpa Emperor."
Xia Yunzhao obediently stood up, her head bowed, standing quietly in the center of the grand hall.
The Seventh Princess revered and feared the family member before her.
From childhood, she had grown up listening to the legendary tales of her Grandpa Emperor, how he had revitalized the once-insignificant Xia Dynasty to its powerful ascent.
He'd ultimately defeated the Shang and Jin Dynasties, becoming the most glorious empire within the Nine Provinces Realm.
