My name is Wei Jiu, of the Ji clan, belonging to the royal family of the State of Wei. I have not yet reached adulthood, and few people know me, but everyone in the world knows my father. My father is Wei Wuqi, the universally acknowledged nobleman, Lord Xinling.
The moment I was born, my father led a great army off to campaign, leaving my mother and me to guard the estate at Xinling alone. Then... my father never dared to come back.
By the time my father finally returned, I could already run around. I held no resentment toward this, because when my father returned, the entire city of Daliang was in an uproar. The common people lined the streets to welcome him, and the illustrious noble families who had previously paid me no mind now scrambled over each other to marry their daughters to me. They practically formed a queue stretching all the way from Xinling to Daliang just for me to pick from.
