The generals remained silent, but nodded in agreement.
Kim Geon-in waved his hand, his face showing anger, but his voice grew louder:
"Incompetent! How can a woman sit on this throne!"
"The rebels were right there at Zhongnan Pass, but she ignored them and directly withdrew from Jinling, fleeing to Nanze! She even took the Shenji Battalion with her!"
"Such behavior is hardly worthy of the title of a ruler!"
"She lacks responsibility and courage!"
"Yes! The general is right!" Among the generals, Jin Ming was the first to speak. His face was flushed as he looked straight at Jin Jianren.
Then the remaining generals also joined in the shouting.
"The general is right!"
Kim Geon-in waved his hand and continued:
"Although we all share the same blood, it is precisely because of this that we cannot bear to see this great enterprise perish in her hands!"
"How can we simply hand over the empire that our late emperors fought so hard to build!"
"Absolutely not!" the generals shouted.
"In terms of responsibility, when the rebel army was at Zhongnan Pass, the general was still at the front line preparing to defend against the enemy.

"Since she is incompetent, she should abdicate and let the general sit on the throne!" Jin Ming said excitedly among the generals.

"The project is in grave danger. If I don't step up now, it will truly be over!"

Now that Jin Fengluan has decided to flee Jinling, what's wrong with the general raising his arms and occupying Jinling? With his status and bloodline, why shouldn't he declare himself emperor?
Immediately, everyone shouted:
"She doesn't deserve it! Only those who stand up in times of great crisis deserve to be kings!"
Kim Geon-in nodded, then raised his arms and shouted:
"That's right! I've made my decision—"
"With all my troops, I will defeat the rebels and let the world know that I, Kim Geon-in, am the one who will save Dae-gan from this calamity!"
"After defeating the rebels—"
At this point, he took a deep breath, and then shouted:
"After defeating the rebels, come with me on our triumphant return to the capital! It's time for me to sit on this throne!"
"I want to become emperor!!!"
