章 579: Chapter 559: Agreement (First Update)

Since hearing of the death of Princess Zhenmin years ago, the Nanchu King had traveled to Dawei to confirm personally. However, he fainted due to blood loss and returned to Nanchu in sorrow, never to step out of the Royal Capital again.

In the following ten years, he lived in bewilderment and grief, neglecting governmental affairs, letting Nangong Yin and Ye Xiang grow their influences unchecked, and allowing the royal family, headed by Liu'an Prince, to fight for power and profit, resulting in a tripartite balance of power.

The triangular scenario had actually rendered the political situation in the Nanchu Dynasty strangely stable and robust.

Five years ago, when he learned that Princess Zhenmin had not died and that she had given birth to a daughter, he wept for joy. He could not contain himself and wanted to go to Daliang to find her, but he came to his senses at the city gate when he saw a member of the Nangong Family beating someone. He dared not take another step.
