Chapter 440: Chapter 440: The Death of Hou Wei (2)

Ming Shang paced back and forth in the Crown Prince Palace, circling around, while several aides carefully stayed to one side, diminishing their presence as much as they could before the Crown Prince.

"What do you think we should do now?" Ming Shang walked up to one of the aides, grabbed his collar, and asked fiercely.

Yao Shun wiped the sweat from his forehead and cautiously said, "Crown Prince, the only way now is to quell Xueyan Country's anger, hand over Hou Wei, and then submit a petition, claiming that we were instigated by others and acted impulsively when we sent troops to attack Xueyan Country."

Ming Shang released his collar, turned his gaze toward the others, saw them nodding furiously, thought for a moment, and then got up to head for the Imperial Palace.
