Chapter 2155: Chapter 2155: Made a Mistake in the Beginning
“You—”
State Scholar Qing almost died of anger because of the Emperor of Beikun.
“How can Your Majesty think that those people are not from Wulong Mountain? What if they really are? What would Your Majesty do then?” He gritted his teeth as he asked.
“I…”
The Emperor of Beikun was momentarily left speechless, unable to utter a single word.
Indeed, what if those people really were from Wulong Mountain, really were from Demon Heart Hall, really were led by High Priest Demon Heart?
He was scared in his heart, frightened that their identities were genuine, that they truly came from Wulong Mountain, aiming to support the Yiinn Family, and to confront his Beikun Kingdom.
Therefore, he vehemently denied it, constantly telling himself that those people were not from Wulong Mountain.
Only if those people were impostors would he be safe; otherwise, merely by colluding with Gui Sihu and others to expel Yiinn Wanli from Gui Ting Manor and letting him fend for himself, the people of Wulong Mountain would not easily let him off.
“I am aware that those people are impostors. High Priest Demon Heart governs such an extensive Wulong Mountain; how could he possibly care about the trivial matters of the Yiinn Family? It must be the Yiinn Family who intentionally found someone to impersonate them!”
He loudly said to State Scholar Qing.
“Heh.”
State Scholar Qing let out a cold laugh.
This world, it is not that whoever speaks louder is in possession of the truth!
The Emperor of Beikun is speaking so loudly precisely because he lacks confidence, and he’s not really informing them, but rather convincing himself that those people are not from Wulong Mountain.
And in fact, the Emperor of Beikun was already scared deep down.
That’s why he aimed his ideas at these state scholars, trying to coax them into confronting High Priest Demon Heart. If they could both sustain losses, he would be able to benefit as the fisherman.
He really is taking their lives for granted!
“Since Your Majesty thinks that those people are not from Wulong Mountain, we won’t say much more. They are merely some lower minions from the planes; Your Majesty could simply dispatch some guards over, and they would easily be eliminated.”
“Exactly, Your Majesty, Beikun Kingdom maintains quite a few soldiers, right? Hundreds of thousands of them, they are not just to sit idle, please dispatch them to handle it.”
“Your Majesty, regardless of whether they are from Wulong Mountain or not, when you initially proposed to deal with the Yiinn Family, we disagreed. Today, we naturally will not interfere in the affairs of the Yiinn Family either.”
The other State Knights, in succession, spoke up.
If there were troubles or disasters anywhere in Beikun Kingdom, these State Knights would indeed take action, undoubtedly they could not let the common people suffer hardship.
However, the affairs of the Yiinn Family, they would absolutely not intervene, as it was initially a mistake made by Your Majesty himself.
“You… you all…”
The Emperor of Beikun, listening to their words one after another, showing no desire to meddle in the matters of the Yiinn Family, flushed red with anger.
“You are the State Knights of Beikun Kingdom. Now that Beikun Kingdom is in trouble, how can you ignore it?” he questioned loudly.
“Where is the trouble in Beikun Kingdom?”
A State Knight countered the Emperor of Beikun; not dealing with the Yiinn Family meant Beikun Kingdom was in trouble?
“Not true, there indeed is trouble in Beikun Kingdom. Your Majesty, we had just left seclusion when we heard of a matter. I wonder if it’s true?”
He recalled the incident he had heard about previously outside and also thought of the desolate scenes on the streets of the capital.
“What matter?”
The Emperor of Beikun asked impatiently.
What he needed the most right now was for these State Knights to deal with the people from the Yiinn Family. Other matters, he did not want to bother about.
