The other eight people were not fools either. If they continued to dwell on this issue, they would only delay today's business. So they all agreed with Wang Tu and asked Shangguan Ning to punish Wu Yajun.
Although Wu Yajun understood rationally that everyone's choice was correct, he had not felt the pain of being held accountable by everyone in unison for a long time, and his face looked extremely ugly.
He looked up at Shangguan Ning, who was looking at him with a faint smile. His face turned dark blue, and he finally nodded in acknowledgment: "I admit my mistake and am willing to accept the punishment!"
Hearing this, Shangguan Ning's smile became more genuine, but his tone remained unchanged, still as gentle as before:
"Since that's the case, I will punish you with a small punishment and a severe warning. I will fine Commander Wu ten years of his salary. What do you think, Commander Wu?"
Wu Yajun felt a pang of pain upon hearing this, but he dared not act presumptuously anymore and lowered his head and said:
"I accept the punishment!"
The position of commander is second only to the emperor and above ten thousand people. The salary for ten years is so generous. There are millions of fairy stones alone, and the value of the elixir for cultivation is even more inestimable.
He must get these resources back from the young master!
Wu Yajun secretly made up his mind and sat down again. He glanced at the faces of others, but found that everyone avoided his gaze, even Wang Tu was no exception.
He was angry and cursed inwardly.
These old foxes!
Seeing that Yuesheng was not easy to deal with, everyone kept silent. Did they want him to continue to be the first to take action?
But as the most capable general under the young master, others can avoid it, but he cannot.
Otherwise, if the matter is brought to the attention of the young master, he will lose face and it will be difficult to get back the cultivation resources he just lost.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, turned to look at Xiang Sheng who was already sitting at the last seat, and said in a cold voice:
"Commander Yue Sheng, do you admit your guilt?"
Xiang Sheng raised his eyebrows and said casually, "I really don't know. May I ask Commander Wu, what crime have I committed?"
Wu Yajun snorted coldly, "The name of the Moon Camp was abolished long ago after the last mutiny, and the Shangguan family head personally issued a gag order on what happened back then!
Now, not only are you promoting the Moon Camp's deeds, you're even daring to revive its name, and you refuse to admit your guilt?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Chuxue's heart instantly tensed up.
Here we come!
When she heard Ling Ying say that Yue Sheng openly revealed the name of Yueying, she had already anticipated the situation today.
Her eyes were fixed on Xiang Sheng's profile.
How will she respond this time?
"So that's why I was summoned here. Commander Wu really misunderstood."
Xiang Sheng sighed helplessly, "When I was in Huacheng, I only mentioned the name Yueying, but never talked about Yueying's past."
"Even the name won't do!"
Wu Yajun sneered, "Commander Yue, are you illiterate? The gag order bans everything related to the Moon Camp, including your name! Do you admit your guilt?!"
Ye Chuxue pursed her lips, her mind racing as she thought about how to refute.
Xiang Sheng's smile remained undimmed, and he calmly asked, "Commander Wu, if I remember correctly, the scope of the gag order is within the Red and Green Army, right?"
When Wu Yajun heard this, his expression changed immediately, "You..."
Xiang Sheng curled his lips and smiled: "When I was in Huacheng, I was just a casual cultivator who wanted to join the Red and Green Army, but I was not yet a member of the Red and Green Army."
"What nonsense!"
Wang Tu suddenly spoke up, his eyes fixed on Xiang Sheng, "When I was in Huacheng, you were clearly blatantly claiming to be the leader of the Moon Camp!"
Xiang Sheng spread his hands, a look of helplessness on his face: "If I don't do this, how can I recruit so many female fairies as a token of my loyalty, so that Lord Shangguan will favor me and grant me the position of commander?"
Wang Tu's eyes widened. "Impossible! You..."
"Commanders all have tokens. Has Commander Wang ever seen me show one?"
Wang Tu was stunned when he recalled what happened that day.
This woman really didn't show any token, but he actually believed it!
No, she can't be allowed to escape the blame like this.
He gritted his teeth secretly and was about to tell a lie, but Xiang Sheng got ahead of him and said meaningfully:
"There are many eyes and ears at the Dan Pin Conference. Aside from the female immortal I brought back, there are hundreds of witnesses from the Red and Green Armies alone. Commander Wang, please think carefully before you speak."
Wang Tu's breath was suddenly stuck in his throat, his face looked ugly, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Xiang Sheng's eyes suddenly sharpened. "Commander Wang, what do you mean by leaving your words unsaid? You said you wanted to clear it up. Did I actually show the token that day?"
Wang Tu's lips trembled as he uttered two words with great difficulty: "No."
When Wu Yajun heard these two words, his face turned ashen.
Wang Tu is such a loser! Instead of supporting the other party, he gave them a leg up. How can he still bring charges?
Xiang Sheng seemed not to notice Wu Yajun's expression. He smiled and gave a light fist to everyone:
"When I was in Huacheng, I hadn't yet joined the Red and Green Army, so I didn't know the rules and regulations, and I was indeed a bit arrogant.
After entering the camp today, I have already obtained a token from the Lord. As the commander of the Moon Camp, I will set an example and strictly abide by military discipline, so that my colleagues will have fewer misunderstandings about me."
"Leader of the Moon Camp?"
To Wu Yajun's right, a middle-aged man with a mustache suddenly spoke up: "Commander Yue just said he wanted to lead by example, so why is he violating the gag order by sitting here?"
Xiang Sheng's eyes turned and fell on the mustache man's face. Instead of answering, he asked, "May I ask your name, colleague?"
The middle-aged man stroked his beard and replied with a forced smile, "I am the commander of the Second Battalion, Fang Benqi."
Xiang Sheng smiled and asked, "Then the Second Battalion is also called the Square Battalion, right?"
Fang Benqi frowned slightly, "So what?"
Xiang Sheng didn't respond. He turned to look at Wu Yajun and Wang Tu again, "So Commander Wu's camp is the Wu Camp? And Commander Wang's Wang Camp?"
Fang Benqi's eyes turned cold. "What on earth do you want to say?"
"Commander Fang couldn't even guess this?"
Xiang Sheng's face showed surprise, and then he sighed softly, "I just wanted to say that the names of all the Red and Green Army camps, big and small, are all based on the commander's surname. Why is it that when it comes to our Moon Camp, we have to treat it specially and not treat everyone equally?"
"Yuesheng, don't you understand what people are saying?!"
Fang Benqi sneered, "I just said it, the word 'Moon Camp' has been banned..."
"That seal was for the former Yueying. What does it have to do with my Yuesheng's Yueying?"
Xiang Sheng glared at her, "Don't you, the commanders of the Sun Camp, hate it when the Moon Camp does something special? Why are you so eager to do something special now?"
It's said that the Red and Green Army has strict discipline and is averse to injustice. You're openly forcing me to change the name of my battalion. Who will still know my name, Yue Sheng, in the future?
Don't go too far!"
"That's just nonsense!"
Fang Benqi was furious and shouted coldly, "You clearly changed your name to Yuesheng on purpose to preserve the name Yueying..."
"It only takes one mouth to spread rumors."
Xiang Sheng spread out his hands and looked at him with a smile, "You say I changed my name on purpose? Commander Fang, please provide evidence. What is my original name? What is my origin?"
Fang Benqi was suddenly speechless and his face turned red.
