Tang and Geng were stunned. How could they have imagined that what Zong Shidao said was actually true? They had leaked military secrets, and yet they had come to the emperor to die. Thinking of this, the two of them turned pale and trembled all over.
In reality, Tang and Geng had just arrived in Bianjing. They hadn't even bothered to return home, wanting to show the emperor how dusty they were, fresh from the front lines. They had even gone straight to the palace, deliberately not changing their clothes or even their official tablets, to seek reward.
