Chapter 132: The Making of the Warlord
In the next few days Xing went to the library at nights and the rumours about the Ghost of Empress Shu got more wide spread and made Xing pouty.
How dare they call me a ghost!
But Xing went and tried to find out more about the Tianshi Emperor but everything she found was about his achievements in war or the economic reforms he did after he stopped being a Warlord. The nation was in a pitiful state after his war campaign for ten years and these economic reforms brought the country back on it’s feet.
It’s all good and informative but Who writes his journals about how to save a nation from economic crisis? Xing sighed.
Xing knew the Tianshi Emperor was a Warlord who repented his ways after falling in love with Empress Shu and later saved the nation from the crisis he brought on them by his wars.
But before all that it is a well known fact that the fourteen year old him massacred everyone in the inner palace, male, female and eunuchs and some officials too. Xing never could understand why he did that two years after his mother died, suddenly.
Xing tried to find more journals about the Tianshi Emperor to find why he did what he did or the romantic details about his love with his wife but she could not find them.
Xing was disheartened,but her mood got better when she suddenly remembered that this guy liked to hide stuff in the rafters like her and she then started searching the rafters and as expected there was a journal hidden there.
Xing sat and read about it and it was what she wanted, the childhood life of the Tianshi Emperor.
His mother was an ordinary orphan from the Fanzhou Village - The village Xing lived before. His mother was a stunning beauty and the then Emperor, that is the father of Tianshi Emperor found her one day and took her to the inner palace of the Imperial Palace which was in Caijing back then. She was a heaven defying beauty but was later called ’the beauty who caused the fall of a nation’.
