”This humble subject doesn't dare speak bluntly. I'm deeply afraid that His Majesty will face the consequences.”

He knew that the Emperor could not afford to lose even more than he could.

”If you say so, I will not blame you.”

Seeing the tone of the Fire Reversal Scales, Yong Lianyun knew that he could say something important to remind the Emperor.

”Time waits for no man, time does not wait, time does not return. This subject didn't dare speak up for His Majesty's decision. All I wanted to say was that His Majesty couldn't afford to lose. Your subject lost, but lost one life. Your Majesty lost the entire world! ”

These words were already extremely disrespectful. An Lingyun turned pale with fright as she looked at the Prime Minister, who never said much and never offended anyone with his glib words.

”Master, you …”

Huo Ni Lin waved his hand and stopped An Ling and Qinglan from talking anymore. His cold eyes were fixed on Yi Yuan, who calmly looked back at him.

After a long while, he narrowed his eyes into a dangerous curve, looked at Shi Yan and asked, ”How confident are you?”

”Then we'll have to see how His Majesty plans things out after so many years. This subject has also grasped a certain amount of power. Right now, His Majesty's determination is the key to determining the outcome.” ”Of course, there's also the attitude of a marquis sweeping the north.”

”Gong Jiu Tian will not trust him.”

”According to this subject's knowledge, the Dukedom of the North has gained the trust, but I don't know who the target of the Dukedom's loyalty is!”

He was reminding the Fire Lin Clan that Shang Qiuyuan's attitude was very critical. After all, he held the military power and he was a man of his word in Fengyuan. If he stood on the side of the Fire Lin Clan, it would be one of the keys to determining the outcome of the battle.

With a solemn face, Huo Ni Lin stared at the imperial report on the table and handed it to Yong Qian, ”This is the imperial report that was delivered by the King during the last few days. Take a look at it.”

”Your Majesty, it's best if you make a decision as soon as possible.” After taking the imperial edict and sweeping through it, he put it back on the dragon table.

An Lingyun took a step forward and bowed. ”May Your Majesty make your decision long ago.”

Her sword-like brows deeply knitted, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes as she looked at the two of them, ”She is just a woman without any background, why must she be like this?”

”Sigh …”

”Your Majesty has never treated women like this before. Why can't you read them properly this time?” His Majesty also understood who it was that had spread the children's Prophecy, and what it meant. ”Besides, since His Majesty hasn't doted on esteemed mistress, he definitely doesn't like her from the bottom of his heart. Why can't he let her go?”

”But, she already has my flesh and blood.”

He didn't know what to say. All along, there had been many rumours about the people in the imperial harem. No one knew whether or not the reverse scale had favored Ji Tian Ning.

Although An Lingyun was the commander of the imperial guards, she wasn't very clear about it. However, a few days ago in the hot spring, Huo Ni Lin favored Ji Tian Ning and many people knew about this. However, he had never heard that Ji Tian Ning had a dragon seed.

”His Majesty already has a descendant. For this matter, please reconsider. This humble subject won't say much.” However, there are people who cannot wait for me. I heard that the King has secretly returned from Fengyuan. ”

Huo Ni Lin was shocked. He raised his eyes and stared at Yong Xian Yun, ”You said he's back?” How do you know? Is the information accurate? ”

The corner of his mouth contained an indescribable smile. His sparkling eyes flickered as he said, ”I just heard some news. It's not for no reason.”

”Reporting to Your Majesty, Fengyuan has a secret military report for submission.”

”Whose memorial is it?”

”To sweep the North Marquis' secret report.”

”Hand it over quickly.”

”Your Majesty, someone has come to request an audience with Your Majesty.”

”Pass.”

A person strode in, his gloomy gaze sweeping over the side chamber. With just a glance, the side chamber was filled with an aura of death. They couldn't see any signs of life from those gray eyes. It was as if this person was also lifeless.

This person was quite tall. On his large skeleton, there seemed to be no muscles under the soft armor, only bones. His body was full of bones, sharp and lofty. His high cheekbones were raised, and his eye sockets were sunken. There was no flesh on his cheeks, and his beard was covered with his chin, making him look quite terrifying.

”Subordinate's golden armor, greetings, Your Majesty.”

”Rise, I'll remember you.”

”Thank you, Your Majesty.”

The gold armor was presented to the military newspaper. As soon as the reverse scale of fire was opened, it contained information on the military, as well as plans for the next step. However, there was no mention of the nine heavens of the palace.

”Golden Armor, let me introduce him to you. This is the Prime Minister of the Southern Champion, you have met him before.”

Golden Armor bowed, ”This general greets the Lord Prime Minister.”

”General, you don't have to be so polite. Come here and work hard. Thank you for your hard work, General.”

An Lingyun and the others also went up to greet the golden armor. After looking at it for a while, they realized that they couldn't be satisfied with the military news. At this moment, what he wanted to know the most was whether or not the Nine Heavens Palace had truly secretly returned to the Southern Champion City.

”Is it good to be side by side with you, King? ”Now that Shang Qiuyuan is the young prince, he needs to take care of the side by side king.”

His dull eyes were like the faint glow that came from a skeleton. They swept past the Fiery Inverted Scales and he lowered his eyes slightly, not replying to Fiery Inverted Scales' words. After a while, he replied hoarsely, ”Your Majesty's blessing, this subject will definitely bring back to report to the marshal.”

The Golden Armor still addressed Shang Qiuyuan as marshal, not as young prince. The expression on his face softened a little. Was this to show him that Shang Qiuyuan did not boast of himself as the noble young prince of the Southern Champion Country to his subordinates?

”Golden General, This Prime Minister remembers that the Great General has already kowtowed to the Shoulder King. We should address him as Young Prince. It's not logical to call him General, is it? ”
