The Late Emperor passed away, and the news was announced to the world.
The Xia Country Imperial Court made an official announcement, addressing two issues.
The first one explained that the cause of the Late Emperor's death was "illness". The Previous Emperor had worked hard, possessed abundant martial virtue, founded the country, recovered territory, and truly achieved great things. However, his old illness relapsed, and despite the efforts of skilled doctors, he still sadly passed away. He was posthumously named the Martial Emperor, his temple title was Tai Zu, and a state funeral would be held in a month.
As for the second issue, it explained the assassination attempt on the two princes in the capital. King Qin and King Yan came to the capital to mourn, but encountered assassins. King Qin was injured and died on the spot, while thankfully, King Yan survived.
With the matter settled, King Yan ascended the throne.
And he pointed all the accusation towards the Raven Sect.
