"Preposterous!"
When Zong Shou said these words, the green-robed Confucian chided.
"You are just the Ruler of a small barbaric country and you dare to threaten the Ruler like that? How rude! Do you want to start a war between both countries?"
He said coldly, "Jin Buhui is a subject of His Majesty, not to mention how he did everything willingly. Even if His Majesty ordered him to, he has to follow. Whether or not he dies is not up to you. Buhui is fighting for the people and serving the country, that is what our Confucianism says. Even if he dies, he will do so in a righteous way and obtain kindness. As his friend, you shouldn't stop him!"
Killing intent rose up in Zong Shou's heart. He took a look at him and then asked Zhongxuan, "Who is this old man?"
"Imperial Hanlin Academy Secretary, Zuoxin!"
