Chapter 80: Seizing Power_2

But the third youngest, except for the very top power, which is the position of the fortress lord, would compete for everything else. Therefore, the third youngest, who should have been the most low-key, ended up not seeming very low-key at all.

The fourth son had been a hot contender for the lordship, offering wine as his gift, something quite common. But the fourth son's child was too young, only eleven years old, and it was impossible for him to be the lord now, especially since his eldest son had died in the conflict on the Yuepela Plains.

The fifth son, similarly, was not competing, but this was merely a façade. He controlled many of the Song Family's business resources, and these enterprises were now starting to cooperate with the household of Song Wei.

This time, the fifth son was the most "sincere" one—he brought no gift. He simply arrived at the Song residence with his useless son, Song Ankang.
