"They are here to destroy us."

"Your Majesty, I think we don't need to fight anymore. Let's abandon the city and run away."

“If we don’t run now, it will be too late. I don’t want 200,000 troops to rush into the city and cause trouble at my residence.”

“My mansion can’t withstand any more damage. These Rakshasa people are a bunch of devils from hell.”

"Your Majesty, I think we can adjourn the court now and go home. Let's pack our things and leave quickly."

This greatly disappointed Jiang Tian.

Surprisingly, over 90% of the civil and military officials present were prepared to abandon the city and flee.

The remaining people remained silent; not one of them wanted to stand up and take the initiative to resist.

"My lord, what is your opinion on this matter?" Murong Feng was also anxious; he didn't want to find a powerful backer only to have his power wane.

"Shut up, all of you!" Jiang Tian roared.

Jiang Tian's thunderous roar echoed throughout the entire palace hall.

Everyone present froze, not daring to utter a single word.

“Look at the ambition of you people,” Jiang Tian said with a look of disdain. “In our Great Xia Dynasty, there is a saying: ‘If you eat the king’s food, you must be loyal to the king.’”

"You officials and civil servants are not thinking of resisting; most of you are just thinking about running away."

Touch your official hats; are you worthy of the official robes you wear?

Jiang Tian's voice echoed throughout every corner of the palace hall.

These people looked at each other.

Although they didn't speak, it was clear that none of them wanted to stay in the capital.
