As he spoke, Lord Chu half-knelt down.
Emperor Lingdi's face twitched! "Did you get injured while out?" Who knows if that's just an excuse? And you didn't say it earlier or later, but only after I mentioned the four spots! You're clearly doing this on purpose!
There was a cold glint of anger in Emperor Ling's eyes!
However, what Emperor Lingdi didn't expect was that Lord Lin also stepped forward to decline, even copying Lord Chu's excuse: "My second brother and the second master of the Chu family went to Jiaruo Forest together and were injured together... Alas, such a great opportunity was missed in vain. It really is... Alas."
Oh, you head!
Excuses! All of them are excuses!
Emperor Ling was so angry that he almost went crazy, because between him and the Dragon and Phoenix Clan, the Lin and Chu families chose the Dragon and Phoenix Clan without hesitation, which made him, the emperor, lose face!
At this moment, Nangong Moyuan asked him, "Your Majesty, do you think it's better to choose Nangong Mochi or Nangong Mojiang?"
The problem is back to square one.
Was Emperor Ling going to say that neither of these two options was acceptable? He had clearly just said in front of everyone that he had to choose one of the four options.
Emperor Ling was furious. He wanted to delay: "This matter is of great importance. It won't be resolved in a short time..."
"Your Majesty! This is a matter of great magnitude, threatening the annihilation of our clan. How can we delay any longer? Your Majesty, please prioritize the people!"
"Your Majesty, please put the people first!"
"Your Majesty, please put the people first!"
…
The civil and military officials below all knelt down!
"You...you...you..." Emperor Ling was so angry that he almost fainted!
He didn't know it before, until this moment, Emperor Ling suddenly discovered that so many people from the Dragon and Phoenix Clan had fallen!
The Leng clan leader had calmed down by now. He glanced at Nangong Moyuan with hatred, sneered, and then said to Emperor Ling: "Your Majesty, I second the motion!"
Emperor Ling suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Chief Leng. Chief Leng was the one who had most strongly refused, but he actually agreed?
However, Emperor Ling saw a different look in Patriarch Leng's eyes.
Emperor Lingdi suddenly thought of this!
Yes!
If any general who is not from the Dragon and Phoenix faction were to take over the patrol camp at this time, the consequence... would be the same as Leng Handong's, dying silently!
Why make this meaningless sacrifice?
But if the patrol camp falls into the hands of the Dragon and Phoenix Clan, then they will have something to do!
Thinking of this, Emperor Ling sneered: "Alright, let Nangong Mochi take over the position of general of the patrol camp!"
"Then Nangong Mohe has to go to the Eastern Army. Thank you, Your Majesty." Nangong Moyuan said bluntly.
Emperor Ling was choked!
Who said that the general of the Eastern Army was Nangong Mohe's? He hasn't agreed yet!
However, before Emperor Ling could raise his objection, Nangong Moyuan didn't even give him a chance to speak. He said, "Your Majesty, you just saw it. If the Dragon and Phoenix Clan hadn't used the Amethyst Cannon in this clan defense battle, the consequences would have been disastrous!"
Emperor Ling snorted coldly, what do you want to do, you old fox?
Nangong Moyuan said: "Your Majesty, although we won the battle last night, the Dragon and Phoenix Clan sacrificed so many people and consumed so many purple crystal cannons. The Dragon and Phoenix Clan is poor..."
Emperor Ling: "..." Your purple crystal cannons only blew up my people, okay? So now you're planning on asking me to pay for those purple crystal cannons? You're dreaming!!!
Nangong Moyuan said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, those people cannot die in vain——"
