In the western province of the Empire of Nanla, close to the border town of the Dorne Empire, within the Lord's Mansion, the portly City Lord was embracing a scantily-clad woman, drinking heavily with a few members of the Nobility, savoring the fine wine smuggled from the Great Tang Empire.
Being able to taste the fine wine from the Great Tang Empire in a place like this was certainly not an easy feat; this required thanking Prince Mo Kangsen for his well-known "friendship" with the Great Tang Empire.
Mo Kangsen could cover the sky with one hand in the Empire of Nanla, naturally because of the support from the Great Tang Empire behind him. And the Empire of Nanla always maintained a neutral stance toward the Great Tang Empire, all because the corpulent Mo Kangsen swayed the judgment of the Nanla Emperor.
Though the Empire of Nanla always seemed like a marginal player, in reality, their economy has done quite well over the years, building a substantial Military force.
