The Old Emperor reminisces about the past decades. When he was young, he met the Empress, and their feelings were always good. The only thing he let the Empress down with was marrying the daughter of the Tao Family back then, which led to subsequent events.
At that time, Mr. Xie had suddenly passed away, and the news repeatedly came from the border of the defeat of the army led by Xie Yu'an, making the Empress displeased with the Xie Family.
The Second Prince's power was at its zenith. He feared the collapse of the Xie Family and urgently needed to unite with the forces of other courtiers to contend with the Second Prince, who had married a daughter from the Pei Family and was supported by the Dingbei Army's commander.
