Chapter 0748: Riddled Like a Sieve
Emperor Jianwu's grandfather and father both had poor luck; after entering the Imperial Family Secret Territory, they perished one after another due to various reasons, failing to leave behind anything of significant value. As a result, Emperor Jianwu struggled when he entered the Imperial Family Secret Territory, as he had to fight for everything himself. This was the primary reason Emperor Jianwu insisted on consuming large amounts of elixirs, despite knowing it was a short-sighted approach that could leave severe consequences.
Emperor Jianwu's case was not unique in the Imperial Family Secret Territory. The scenario was similar for the princes of the Eastern Capital City, including Emperor Chaoyang; none of them had direct descendants to rely on, and they all had to struggle on their own.
