章 727: An Oath

It wasn't often that a king would allow such an oath to be taken, not to mention taking it himself. This went against all that was considered usual for the royalty and kings. One could count on one hand the number of kings who had ever done this.

There were oaths taken by kings sure, but they were taken among others of equal or higher status. And thus, the court members were left speechless. Only after a minute of silence did someone speak.

"I volunteer too!" one of the generals spoke.

"I do too!" A junior minister spoke.

"I shall take the oath as well!" Another minister joined in.

One by one, hands rose up as more and more people joined. In the end, each and every person was ready to take the oath and this put a smile on the face of the King and even Lin Mu, who had not expected this.
