Chapter 44 Banquet

This banquet was held to welcome these martial arts prodigies who had come to participate in the martial arts contest, something Shi Hao had attended the previous year.

He had a tiny bit of understanding about the Prince's Mansion.

The current Commandery Prince was named Chu Wei, who had two sons; the eldest, Chu Bing, was born of a concubine. However, his mother was the beloved daughter of a high-ranking general, a status not to be underestimated.

The younger son was named Chu Fei, born of the principal wife, who was a noble daughter from the affluent Han Family of the County Town.

Chu Wei had long delayed appointing an heir, causing Chu Bing and Chu Fei to compete covertly and overtly for the position.

Chu Bing's support base was in the military, bolstered by his maternal grandfather's connections, earning him the backing of many military leaders, while Chu Fei took the elite family route, supported by the influential families of the city.
