"These people from the lower city are a little too arrogant!"
In a large conference room, there was a constant stream of violent and angry curses.
"Our king is willing to talk to him, which is already a concession. But he's still putting on airs and asking the king to go to Luoyue City to meet him in person?!"
"Since when did the cockroaches and rats from downtown dare to talk over our heads?"
"And there's Chen Xin. After Chen Qian fell, neither of the Chen family's two sons could accomplish anything!"
"It's because of that cowardice of Chen Xin that those people in the lower city now think that we in Wangchun City are also fucking useless!"
In this meeting, everyone was still self-respecting and acting a bit arrogant.
But as he spoke, he began to lose all restraint and started cursing.
Just when the cursing was at its loudest, a man about fifty years old slowly walked in from outside.
The moment he came in, the room fell silent.
This man is naturally Zhou Xing.
The king of Wangchun City.
Zhou Xing walked into the room with a gloomy expression, without looking around, and sat directly on the chair that belonged to him.
"What are you arguing about?"
After sitting firmly, Zhou Xing raised his head and swept his sharp eyes over everyone present.
"king!"
The man who had been arguing the most fiercely suddenly stood up, bowed, and then said indignantly, "That man from Lower City named Ning Fan is really too arrogant. He actually wants you to condescend and go to Luoyue City to meet him in person..."
"I already know about this."
Zhou Xing interrupted the man and continued, "So what happened after you quarreled?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then looked at the people around him who shared the same hatred as him.
But these people, without exception, all turned their heads away and avoided his gaze.
The man had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "What we all mean is... to fight to the death! To defend the dignity of Wangchun City!"
"oh."
Zhou Xing nodded thoughtfully, then said to the man slowly, "Okay, then you should lead the charge and stop the troops from the city."
The man froze.
Zhou Xing's expression remained indifferent. "If you have any needs, just ask. As long as you can hold the troops of the people in the lower city, I will give you the official position you choose, not just money!"
Gulp.
The man swallowed hard.
Suddenly, he knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "I also want to share the king's worries! Please..."
"Aren't I giving you the opportunity to share my worries?"
Zhou Xing interrupted him again.
This time, half of the man's body was almost lying on the ground, but he couldn't say anything.
Since he wants to share the burden, he can just follow orders now, and there is no need to prove his loyalty with words.
But……
He doesn't want to go!
The people in the lower city have an army of two million. What can he use to stop them?
Besides, I heard that Ning Fan...
He is also a powerful man in the Eight Desolations.
Although he felt that the rumor was a little exaggerated, even if it was Liu Qihuang, he couldn't afford to try to scam him.
Obviously, he knew what he was thinking, and Zhou Xing also understood.
"If you don't have the guts, don't talk nonsense here!"
Zhou Xing angrily scolded, "There are only a few of you in this room. Who are you putting on this show of iron will for?"
"If you have any guts, come out and tell me now. I will do my best to support you!"
"Even if you are defeated in the end, I will still make you the heroes of Wangchun City! I will treat my descendants well!"
"As long as there is a brave man in Wangchun City, I, the king, will not be a coward!"
"At worst, I'll stay with everyone and keep our dignity!"
Having said that, Zhou Xing narrowed his eyes and glanced at everyone again...
"But……"
"Is there?"
Zhou Xing's eyes were somewhat complicated.
There is banter.
There is disdain.
But, I still have some expectations.
However, after a minute, the anticipation disappeared.
Because the warrior he expected to appear did not exist.
"OK."
Zhou Xing suddenly laughed.
This smile is full of helplessness and disappointment.
"Since we're all wimps, then stop putting on that lame show and start treating ourselves like wimps and considering some practical issues."
This sentence is full of humiliation to everyone.
Even including myself.
Because Zhou Xing, who was on the throne, knew better than anyone that Wangchun City could not withstand the attack from the lower city.
But as a king, he still has at least some pride.
Therefore, he hoped that someone in his family would stand up.
Tell him that for Wangchun City and for the king, I am not afraid of death!
As long as such a person exists, Zhou Xing will never be a coward.
pity.
There was not even anyone around Zhou Xing who could help him lift his knees.
"From now on, we must correct our attitude and cognition."
"We've always treated downtown people like cockroaches and rats, and that's normal."
"But that was before they came up."
"Now that they are here, they are no longer pests that we despise but can crush to death at any time."
"But it's a beast that can really kill us."
"When facing wild beasts, we need to know what they need."
"Is it simply hunting, or do you have other expectations?"
