If the background of this Number One Handso Man wasn’t impressive, the old emperor would have packed him off to be his daughter’s husband long ago.
His maternal family was one of the founding mbers alongside the founding emperor, hailed as loyal brothers, but when the country was established, this old brother picked up a hoe and went back to farming. His reasoning was quite peculiar; he said he followed in the revolution just to fill his belly, and now that there’s land and fields at ho, how could they be neglected? Of course, he had to return ho to farm; his ancestors were farrs, how could it change in his generation!
The founding emperor was not the kind of person to discard allies after achieving his goals. The old brothers who helped him establish the empire all beca high officials with power and influence, none t a bad end, and the brother held no fear of anything — he simply loved farming!
Most sigh-inducing is this brother was indeed a farming genius!
The newly established country had its people impoverished and hungry after countless wars.
This farming brother surprisingly invented many tools that made farming easier. Later he also developed hybrid grains, discovering many miraculous seeds said to be purchased from green-eyed rchants beyond Border Town.
The food grown from these foreign seeds was astoundingly bountiful!
During the nation’s founding hardships, no one starved to death, supporting Great Xia’s solid foundation, and the national treasury accumulated bit by bit, leading to the current prosperity of Great Xia.
However, it was this wealth that attracted the attention of foreign ambitious wolves.
This brother was not greedy for power, genuinely refusing office and wanting nothing, only thinking about farming. He actually fard well, so people privately called him the farming immortal, believing he was a celestial farming in the sky who ca down to help people escape poverty.
The founding emperor also liked this brother very much. Who wouldn’t appreciate such a brother who didn’t create trouble but always brought fortune? Thus, in his old age, after appointing the crown prince and slowly handing over affairs to the crown prince, he bestowed upon his brother the title of King with a Different Surna, often going to farm together.
After all, before ascending the throne, he was also a lad working in the fields.
This was the only King with a Different Surna in Great Xia’s history.
Later emperors also contemplated acting against the descendants of this King with a Different Surna, as this title wasn’t inherited by demotion but passed down through generations. So narrow-minded emperors couldn’t accept the King with a Different Surna’s existence, attempting to find sothing to falsely accuse.
But whenever the King with a Different Surna was close to downfall, he could always present sothing lifesaving, maybe a pardon gold dal, perhaps the Sword that decapitated the previous dynasty’s emperor.
Once failing to remove this King with a Different Surna, the emperor intent on causing trouble would inevitably be scorned by the royal family, and shortly after, would et their end!
They would die in a rather mysterious fashion, leaving no trace of suspicion, and soon a new emperor would ascend the throne.
In this way, subsequent emperors grew wary, not daring to act against the King with a Different Surna.
The father of this Number One Handso Man hailed from a similarly formidable family, with his father being a Great General with military achievents, his grandfather likewise, and his uncles also...
These were all good sons who made enormous contributions to Great Xia, bled on the battlefield.
And they were very honest, simply put, were oafs, without any cunning.
The old emperor still favored them, not wanting to harm them.
Thus there was even less chance to send this good lad to his daughter.
