Chapter 42, Soothing *** policy_1

In the Mountain Domain, a wave of cheers erupts among the people as news of their new lord spreads. This marked the maturity of the domain's power, and if not for the timing, they would've immediately held a grand celebration.

The public festivities were cancelled, but unofficial celebrations were nonetheless plentiful.

This was not the Capital, so no one paid attention to the little matter of unladylike rejoicing.

After seeing his son safely born, Hudson immediately took off on a dragon's back, heading straight for the Capital.

The situation in the capital was tense, and Hudson knew that he couldn't afford to be absent. Yet, taking one day off was manageable.
