Thanks to overseas trade, the empire is now growing ever stronger. But the Lieyun Empire fears being overtaken and plans to strike first.
If the Ocean Empire surpasses it in strength, being swallowed up will only be a matter of time. So the Lieyun Empire plans to make its move during the succession of the crown prince.
Certain factions within the Ocean Empire have already sensed the coming war, and they are beginning to prepare for what will happen after the crown prince’s death.
If he dies, they are ready to install a puppet emperor at any moment.
