Tuoba was a very pitiable child.
Following the "crown prince over the dead mother" tradition of Northern Wei, after he became the Crown Prince, his mother was executed in accordance with the system, and the first stain of blood upon his position of Crown Prince belonged to his mother.
His young father, who was busy with power struggles, initially still sneaked visits to see him occasionally, but as he grew a little older, his father could not even find the time to take a single look at him.
In the beginning of his life, other than the maids and attendants who took care of his diet and daily life, there were only two people who were often by his side, one was called Rong Zhi and the other was named Chu Yu.
Only these two people were not as dull as the other servants, and they were not his servants either. According to seniority, Tuoba should call Rong Zhi "Uncle Grandpa," and as for Chu Yu...
"Grand Aunt!"
