In the coldest months of winter, the weather is freezing and the ground is frozen. It is the coldest time of the year, but it is also the time when families reunite.
"It should be soon. The eldest princess will be back after she finishes dealing with things in the northwest. I don't know about the second princess." The third princess continued.
The northwest region of the Great Saint suffers from natural disasters every year. Last year there was a drought, and this year there was a flood. Farmers had no harvest, which caused a large number of refugees. Countless people were displaced and moved far away.
The imperial court distributed disaster relief food, thinking it would help the northwest region. However, half a year later, someone in the court reported that the disaster relief food had been embezzled, causing a large number of refugees to eat tree bark, and complaints and public resentment arose.
The empress was furious and executed several officials. She ordered the eldest princess to investigate the matter thoroughly and provide disaster relief food to the people in the northwest.
The Fourth Prince had heard of this, but didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he asked, "Third Sister, I heard there will be a Three Kingdoms Martial Arts Competition next year, which is held once every ten years."
"Well, the last time I saw it was when I was four years old. It was so lively..." The third princess recounted the story of the Three Kingdoms martial arts competition.
There are three countries in this world, Great Sage, Daluo and Taiyin. There has been no war among them for hundreds of years. Every ten years, the three countries will have a competition, and each competition will take place in the Great Sage Kyoto.
There are three major sects in the Great Sage Sect: the Holy Maiden Sect, the Rakshasa Sect, and the Netherworld Temple, and there are countless other small sects.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the door, and several palace maids came in with desserts. They brought a small table and placed it next to the two of them, placing desserts and hot tea on it.
The third princess glanced at the desserts, picked up one happily and started eating it, then talked while eating, completely disregarding her ladylike image.
Anyway, we are all in the house, and the Fourth Prince is not an outsider.
The Fourth Prince smiled and picked up a dessert to eat. In his eyes, the Third Princess was named Situ Yue, who was 14 years old this year. She had a naive and carefree personality. Perhaps because of her young age, she did not have the sophistication of an adult, did not hide herself, and was very kind to her younger brother.
but....
Born in the royal family, the Fourth Prince has watched countless palace fighting dramas. People will change when they grow up, no matter how good they are, they will become terrible.
"I hope my sisters won't be like those in palace dramas..."
The fourth prince mourned in silence.
