Emperor Xia's gaze swept across the royal family members who chose not to accompany Prince Yi.
Yet, no one responded.
Even Emperor Xia's own sons remained silent at this moment.
"None of you wish to go west with me?"
Emperor Xia's expression changed.
He had always believed himself to be a successful ruler, with Daxia flourishing under his leadership, seemingly on the verge of uniting the entire realm.
But now, he suddenly realized he hadn't truly understood even his own sons.
"Father, I wish to stay!"
Fourth Prince Tang Yun emerged from the crowd, "As Prince Yi, our imperial uncle, stated, the empire our Grand Ancestor Emperor built should not be so easily handed over to others by us, the descendants."
"Daxia can fall!"
"But as long as the royal family of Daxia remains, Daxia hasn't truly fallen!"
These words from Fourth Prince Tang Yun finally brought some relief to Emperor Xia's expression.
He had thought he was utterly unpopular.
