"Right, I was just about to inform State Preceptor Cheng to consult the Dahong Emperor about this matter. Could it be that there's a rebellion within your Dahong borders that's blocking your path?
Do you need assistance to quell the rebellion?
If needed, we can help for free!" Xu Jin laughed, flashing a set of glaring white teeth, looking all innocent.
But Minister of Rites from the Dahong Ministry, Shi Zhengxia, gasped in shock.
Xu Jin's words were quite daunting.
If this matter gets escalated to the Emperor, those facing the consequences will definitely be them!
The opposite side only needs to maintain that their welcoming party was hindered within Dahong, suspecting that it's due to a rebellion, which would be sufficient to cause the Emperor great embarrassment.
With the Emperor losing face, even if they don't lose their heads, they'll lose their prospects!
