Chapter 1206: 1206: The End of An Era

In order to stabilize his position as king, Di Jingchen shamelessly asked the Lee family for money.

It had to be noted that these noble families couldn't stand on their own.

Once one got destroyed, the rest would follow as well.

When the Lee family had gone bankrupt, there were many more that followed—one of them being the Li family whom Di Zhong wanted to be in-laws with.
