Ning Hongde felt that he had taught countless students, and the one he was most proud of was the Crown Prince of Xia Country. In those years, he pursued the honor of becoming the Emperor's Master wholeheartedly. Alas, fate was unkind, the Xia Country's political scene was corrupt, and most officials were mere merchants of titles and ranks. Some had not even read a book but became County Magistrates, leading to immense public resentment.
How could such a Xia Country not fail?
The past is best not discussed. He had nurtured Xia Houzhe for many years, hoping he could achieve at least half of what the Crown Prince could, but to his surprise...
He had educated a brainless person.
One wrong step leads to another.
Lineage truly cannot be ignored at times. The son of a mere lowly washermaid is indeed difficult to raise. Had he been born of the Crown Princess Consort, would his lineage be like this?
Ning felt heartbroken and couldn't help but cough violently.
