"That is Heng Yi's follower, Bai Cha, Your Highness."
"He used to be a manservant of the Duke's Public House."
Emperor Zhao Qian was stunned.
The High Duke's Public House, the Shen family…
Emperor Zhao Qian's thoughts returned to his childhood.
Empress Shen had been childless for many years and had raised him by her side, recording him under her name. He had gone from an ordinary prince to the Empress' legitimate son.
Naturally, all of the Shen family's forces also gathered to rely on him, practically raising the power of a few families to let him become the Emperor.
He wanted to treat the Shen family well for the rest of his life so when he was a prince, he married the legitimate daughter of the Shen family and had a son and a daughter.
They might not love each other, but they held great respect for one another.
Empress Shen also nurtured him carefully.
