In the court, the emperor was all smiles.
Luo Shenyuan stood up and accepted the reward, and the emperor praised him highly. Luo Shenyuan glanced at Wei Ling, and neither of them said anything.
Lu Jiaxue stood in the first position among the military officers, without looking back, with a blank expression on his face.
Luo Shenyuan was no newborn calf; he was a young tiger, already possessing strength. If given the opportunity, he would be poised to strike back. Wei Ling, to his surprise, was willing to surrender his military achievements.
Given time, no one will be able to suppress him.

"Deal with you?" Lu Jiaxue snorted coldly.
"I have something to talk to you about. Come here." After saying that, he put on his cloak and walked to the front first.
Cheng Lang gritted his teeth and followed him. He didn't dare disobey Lu Jiaxue. What did he want from him?
