Upon hearing these words, Xia Xinghe's eyes narrowed as he stared deeply at Kong Dashan. He softly asked, ”You are the head of a small clan in Dingguo City. How do you know of the Grand Princess?”

Kong Shan didn't dare move an inch as he knelt in front of Xia Xingchen. He seemed very nervous, but at the same time very cautious. ”This is how things are. Young Master Xia …”
