章 60: Chapter 60 Meng Chong Understands the Golden Bell Shield Great Sun_1

Emperor Qi, upon returning to his royal study, sunk into deep thought. When did he, the monarch of Qi Country, the supreme emperor, fall into such distress?

It started with the struggle for the throne. His third son lost a precious jade, and was defeated in the contest of succession. His eldest son, victorious in the strife for the crown, commenced actions in Donghe Jurisdiction to deal with Guo Rongshan.

It was his ministers who supported his eldest son, clearing the way for his son by eliminating the Tienmu Sect in Donghe Jurisdiction, preparing him for the position of the Crown Prince.

The root of all this started with the plundering Xu Yan's household...

At this thought, Emperor Qi seethed with anger and felt wronged. After all, Xu Yan's household has not been plundered yet, and he was the emperor! A mere merchant, why would he care?

He wasn't even aware of this matter.

And yet, he ended up carrying the burden of the acts he didn't commit.
