In war between two countries, swords have no eyes, and the second prince was just that unlucky to die.
What could the Yue Kingdom do?
Perhaps we should first explain why the Second Prince wanted to provoke a war between the two countries.
In this way, everything is in a closed loop.
His Majesty is relieved, Lord Murong has received the money, and the Third Princess has gotten what she wanted.
