Upon hearing this, Qingchen threw his head back and roared with laughter. "HAHAHA... Treason? Rebellion? I am the legitimate heir of Daqian! You are the rebels! You are the traitors!
"You keep prattling on about rebels and traitors. Do you even remember your great ancestor, Emperor Chu Tian? He had been on the throne for a mere half-year when that traitor, Chu Ping, usurped his power! Now, who do you think are the rebels? Who are the traitors? Hmm?"
Qingchen scanned the ministers in the hall, who were all struck dumb with astonishment.
Some exchanged bewildered glances. So, this King of Qing is actually a descendant of Emperor Zhao He.
That period of history was rarely discussed in Daqian; Emperor Zhao He had been on the throne for only half a year before Emperor Zhao Ren usurped him.
Emperor Zhao Ren, the great ancestor of Daqian, was Chu Xiong's great-grandfather.
