Duoji and Gongbu performed a touching drama of father-son recognition in front of a crowd of officials in Qianyuan Hall.
It was only then that Gongbu realized that Jiang Qu, whom he regarded as the hope of the Royal Court, was the one who almost killed Duoji.
As the Eldest Prince, Duoji was proficient in both literature and martial arts from a young age, valued emotions and righteousness, and was deeply loved by his people. Everyone in the Royal Court knew how he treated Jiang Qu, his mixed-blood brother from Central Plains.
However, even such a brother as Jiang Qu could betray him at any moment, so how could he possibly care for a father who had never valued him?
Gongbu looked at the young man with red hair in front of him; he was so strong and mighty. This was the child he once valued the most, the heir he desired.
Yes, Jiang Qu fled back to the Snowfield and even proclaimed himself as the Chanyu. Perhaps, he could indeed restore the glory of the Royal Court.
