"The capital is currently well-equipped with troops, while Wei and Khotan are weak after the war. My lord, seize this opportunity..."

"Attack the capital first. Once the capital is captured, the states of Tian and Wei will be no threat."

Tian Guang made the final decision; since everyone thought he wouldn't, he was going to catch them off guard.

Unexpectedly, their plan was exposed. The capital was prepared, and the Wei and Tian states took the opportunity to surround them, causing them to lose some of the territory that Jin had originally acquired.

"The Emperor is wise!! The deputy general initially refused to accept it, but when he saw the room full of gold, he couldn't close his eyes."

The new king scoffed, "Just a small slave unit, how shallow indeed."

"Your Majesty, I did accept the Emperor's gold, but I never imagined so many brothers would die! Your Majesty... I've been poor for so long, I've never seen so much money before..."

Tian Guang never expected that his brothers, who would have trusted each other completely, would betray him.

"You didn't expect this?! Look at these accounts, who among us wasn't terrified of poverty and hunger?! Your one sentence, 'You didn't expect this,' has caused all your brothers and sisters, just like you, to die on the battlefield!!! You've been with me since the very beginning!!! Don't you remember how those noble families treated us?! That money is stained with our blood, how can you accept it with a clear conscience and then say, 'You were terrified of poverty!!!'"

Tian Guang drew his sword, but the others in the tent tried to dissuade him.

"Your Majesty, we are still at war. Why not let him atone for his crimes and perform meritorious service, and then deal with him after the autumn harvest?"

"Your Majesty, I believe that after this battle, the deputy general has turned over a new leaf. After all, the deputy general has followed Your Majesty for many years. If he is punished as such, wouldn't that discourage the other generals?"

Tian Guang suddenly burst into loud laughter, glancing at the people inside the tent. Some avoided his gaze, some were afraid, and some tried to persuade him, their eyes clear as if he would definitely agree.

The reason Tian Guang chose this path was because he couldn't stand those people oppressing them. He never imagined that his brother, who was willing to die for him, would one day end up like those people.

So why did he do all this?
