But this place is not as spacious as the courtyard at home. The earthen houses are very close to each other. In addition, the air in the underground palace is not circulated, so diseases such as colds are very easy to spread.
You have to know that there are no vaccines now, and the child mortality rate in this dynasty is very high. Wenkang is the only bloodline left in his second uncle's family.
