Longteng Country was fraught with such deep internal strife.
People like Wei Qiong had been secretly supporting Prince Xiaoyao, opposing Her Majesty the Empress.
On the surface, Longteng Country still seemed peaceful, but in reality, it had long since become fragmented.
A faction remained loyal to the late Emperor, led by none other than Prince Xiaoyao and Great General Wei Qiong.
Another faction was loyal to the current Empress.
And then there were those who simply went with the flow, taking refuge wherever they could.
Now that the Empress held power, they submitted to her.
If someday Prince Xiaoyao were to ascend to power, they would also be loyal to him.
Whoever was beneficial to Longteng, they would pledge their loyalty to.
This group of people was currently being ardently courted by both Long Tianliu and Long Hongming.
Overall, even though Long Tianliu had been the Empress for over a decade, she still had yet to secure her place firmly on the throne.
