Cloud Zhen did not like to hear or speak about others' private matters, especially those of the emperor.

Talking too much about the emperor's private affairs could bring bad luck.The previous emperor had only six sons, and Guan Jia was the youngest.

Five out of the six died young, leaving Xìn Wang as a miracle.

A serious illness made Xìn Wang rarely able to get up from his bed, but now he had recovered enough to lead troops into battle, which was astonishing.It seemed strange that Guan Jia was the emperor's youngest son;Cuando nació, la Emperatriz Dowager Zhangxiang Ming, Liu E, ya era demasiado vieja para concebir hijos.

Por lo tanto, este hijo con las peores calificaciones terminó siendo el emperador.Cloud Zhen pondered in his heart, though the sons of the previous emperor were all born into riches, timing mattered.

Even with the protection of Six Deities and Six Juniors, being born with a golden rod might not last long if the timing was wrong;but if it was right, even if your mother was just cleaning toilets in the palace, you could still rise to power.A founding emperor rose through battles, while an era-emperor ascended by birth.

The timing of birth could not be wrong—such as Guan Jia, who would have been bedridden and speechless in his youth had he been born five years earlier, leaving no chance for him to use the method of selecting generals through raising insects.People from the royal family were different from those outside;when they fell ill, they could die suddenly without warning.

If the external environment changed, regardless of whether it was a contagious disease or brain issues, if they seemed like they had given up their last breath, they would recover in an instant and ride off to hunt tigers in the Southern Mountains with a meaty meal.Xìn Wang was undoubtedly among the best examples;he never received visitors for decades, and everyone thought he was suffering through hard times.

Who knew that he secretly had eight daughters, all as beautiful as flowers.

Based on their appearance, Cloud Zhen inferred that Xìn Wang's wife could not be too unattractive to compensate for his own looks.As for sons, it was an old tradition of the Zhao family: they rarely survived after birth, especially the sons of Xìn Wang compared to Emperor Zhao Zhen’s predecessors.Xìn Wang had never stepped out of Dongjing but now, like a dragon finally emerging from the sea, Cloud Zhen could easily imagine how pleased he would be with the mountains and rivers in Shu Province.Cloud Zhen scratched his head.

He couldn't figure out how such a king could control warriors like Zhao Yifan and Zhao Yan, who were known for their fierce temper.He realized that he no longer had control over these two brutes.
