Bab 557: Chapter 212: Detective Ji: Your Majesty has been assassinated, ministers are shedding blood, this is all the handwriting of Ten Thousand Demon Country, blood debt must be paid with blood._2

"For the fate of the nation, for the people of the Ying Country, I hope you all can make the right choice. I believe that if we must fight, then we fight, but if there's a chance for peace, then we negotiate. We should be vigilant at all times, and find a way out for the country.

Second, choose to wage war against Ten Thousand Demon Country, and I will kill you here and now."
