At the bustling and lively scene of Hong Fu Restaurant's opening.
A military report was delivered onto Emperor Zhao Ji's desk.
Along with the report, memorials, like snowflakes, kept arriving.
The Nanyang rebellion.
Local officials covered up the report.
Military measures delayed.
Celestial River City fell.
Beijiang City fell.
...
Urgent situation in Nanyang County.
After reading each memorial, Zhao Ji was almost angered to the point of spitting blood.
He immediately summoned the civil and military officials for a meeting.
In the court, Zhao Ji, naturally unable to contain his rage, vented his anger at the officials, then turned his gaze toward Xiao Yunqi, and said:
"Grand Commandant, if I order you to die, will you die?"
As the words fell, the entire court fell silent.
No one expected the fire to spread to Xiao Yunqi.
Xiao Yunqi frowned slightly, then said, "If the emperor commands his subject to die, and the subject does not, it is disloyal."
