This roar was truly like a thunderclap. Not only were the foreigners trembling with shock, but even the people on the other side of the execution ground were deeply shaken.

Initially, they were merely opposing the court's pandering to foreigners, but they were later incited by the Red Tide Alliance hidden among the crowd, and thus decided to storm the execution ground in an attempt to stop today's execution.

However, upon seeing so many warships arriving from the sea, they were all bewildered and confused, having no idea who these people were or how their arrival would affect today's execution.

But in everyone's heart, there is one thought that has never changed from beginning to end.

That is to safeguard the great cause and never allow foreigners to act arrogantly and domineeringly here, like some kind of emperor.

The court's actions were not only disappointing but also worthy of condemnation. For the sake of these foreigners, they even set aside land and ordered ordinary people to relocate so that these "foreign masters" could live there.

This is truly infuriating and heartbreaking.

Throughout history, how could such a powerful and influential nation have become a lackey of foreigners?

At this moment, when everyone saw Dian Wei shouting at these high-ranking foreigners to kowtow, the heartfelt joy he felt made them even forget that this was the Yan Kingdom's army, which was known as the "rebel army".

Beckett was thrown into the crowd by Dian Wei, and several people fell down with him.

Before they could even get up from the ground, they heard the thunderous shout, "You may now worship!" This thunderous roar froze all the foreigners, their faces turning pale and their bodies stiffening.

They looked at Qin Ze with shock or anger, their eyes filled with uncertainty.

Mai Lirui's face was grim, his hand gripping his cane clenched tightly, a surge of anger rising within him. Suppressing his rage, he tried to keep his tone calm as he spoke:

"We have never had the custom of kowtowing!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ze slightly raised his chin, his sharp gaze fixed on Mai Lirui:

"Yeah?"

"However, now that you have come to my Yan Kingdom, you must learn to adapt to local customs."

Do I need to teach you this principle?

Mai Lirui frowned and said in a deep voice, "We have previously paid our respects to the Emperor of the Great Gan Dynasty, but we have never kowtowed to him!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ze shook his head and laughed: "You mean that cowardly, weak, and incompetent stupid woman?"

"Her so-called 'Emperor' is nothing but a nobody."

At this point, Qin Ze's expression gradually became solemn, and then he said in a deep voice:

"Here, there is only my Yan Kingdom, and only me as its ruler. Once you're here, you must obey my orders."

Qin Ze stepped forward and roared at Mai Lirui:

"My rules are the only rules!"

"Now, do you understand?!"

boom!

As soon as these words were spoken, all the Yan soldiers drew their weapons, their eyes filled with murderous intent. They were just waiting for the order to immediately transform into butchers and slaughter all these arrogant foreigners!

"Understood."

Filled with boundless rage, Ma Lirui spat out a few words through clenched teeth before kneeling on the ground in humiliation.

The foreigners behind him looked surprised, but only hesitated for a moment before kneeling down with Marilyn.

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of kneeling sounds rang out, and all the foreigners knelt on the ground with resentment.

The next moment, a wolf-like howl came from afar.

"good!"

"Great! Great!"

"Great! That's how it should be!"

The people in the square saw the foreigners kneeling on the ground, which instantly ignited their emotions.

These high and mighty foreigners were forced to kneel today, which made them so excited that they howled.

During the time the foreigners were in Nangang, they were used to acting arrogantly and domineeringly. Even people in the imperial court had to lower their heads when they saw them and dared not say a word to them, let alone ordinary people like them.

Today, the former Prince of Zhenbei, whom the court called a "traitor who stole the country," is here, and the foreigners have to put down their arrogant attitude and kneel on the ground.

How can this not be met with applause!

At that moment, a voice rang out from among the people: "Gentlemen, did you all see that?!"

"Jin Fengluan treated these foreigners with such obsequiousness, just like an old prostitute selling herself in a brothel!"

"But the one we see now can command the obedience of foreigners and demonstrate the power of our nation!"

"Everyone says that a country cannot have two rulers, but in my opinion, only this one can be called His Majesty! That Jin Fengluan is nothing but a fake emperor who usurped the throne!"

Without a doubt, these words are extremely persuasive in the current situation.

After all, justice resides in the hearts of the people, and concrete actions are more convincing than any high-sounding rhetoric.

"That's right!"

"Those who defy the imperial court will only become slaves to foreigners. It is our Emperor who can treat foreigners as slaves!"

"Everyone, we should be His Majesty's subjects, not worship that Golden Phoenix as our ruler!"

"She's not worthy! She's not capable! She can't handle foreigners!"

More and more voices of agreement followed, and in this context, inflammatory remarks can take hold in the blink of an eye. Once someone starts, it spreads like wildfire.

Immediately afterward, some people knelt down before Qin Ze, shouting:

"I pay my respects to Your Majesty. I was unaware of Your Majesty's arrival and have failed to greet you properly. I beg Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

One after another, in groups, the people knelt on the ground, and then cried out:

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"
