Princess Anning's seat was right below that of Prince Fuku.
Not far diagonally opposite from her was Fuku Princess, the former Emperor's half-sister from the same father, and her son, Prince Qing of Qing Mansion, whom the former Emperor had particularly graced with an early title.
When Emperor Yue had just ascended the throne, the situation in Yue Country was not very stable.
The Wang Family from Qinghe had always been reluctant to accept Emperor Yue's rule, until the sixteen-year-old Fuku Princess volunteered, marrying the Wang Family's legitimate eldest son.
