The Emperor suddenly stood up, bypassed the desk, and harshly threw the bamboo slip in front of Bai Qingyan.
"Discuss? You received the military records on this bamboo slip and didn't submit it quickly. The entire population of Dadu City knew about it before I did. Vowing at the spirit tablet, with agitated and angry people blocking the Wude Gate, you almost forced a palace coup. And you still dare to talk about discussion? Do you really think I've grown too old to notice the Bai family's filthy tricks?"
She bent down to pick up the bamboo slip from the floor and wiped it with her plain white sleeve. The last line of the script came into view... "Vice Commander Bai Qishan has been besieged in Fengcheng for five days without food, Nanyan Army captured and humiliated the five sons of the Bai family in front of the troops, attempting to force Bai Qishan to surrender."
