章節 976: Stabbing You

Since ancient times, it was said that officials gave up their lives to maintain justice, and soldiers fought with their lives for victory. However, there were very few people with such boldness.

That old minister's surname was Gu, and he was not famous in the Imperial Court. He had wasted half his life and was already close to the age of compulsory retirement.
