"Don't tell me you don't remember anything?" Chu Yunge asked while smiling, she dragged her voice and reminded him with good intentions, "I will remind you, Guan Shan was once your subordinate, and he risked his life for you. And then you executed him after autumn. "

Hearing Chu Yunge's reminder, Baili Lan's face turned cold, and his expression became even more serious. His mind raced as he recalled all the information regarding the two words' Guan Shan '.

It seemed that a few years ago, there was indeed a person called Guan Shan who was the Captain of the Tiger Cavalry Camp. However, because of his anger at the fact that he lost fighting with Chu Yan, he made the entire Tiger Cavalry Camp fall into the category of deserters.

However, before the day of execution had arrived, the prison of the Ministry of Justice had been robbed by a group of criminals and the prisoners had been rescued.

After this incident, he was furious. At one point, he had replaced the letter of the president of the Ministry of Justice and the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice.

As for Guan Shan …

Could it be that this Guan Shan that Chu Yunge was talking about was the person that had been robbed and taken away from the prison in the Ministry of Justice?

"Are you talking about Guan Shan, the criminal who was rescued from the prison of the Ministry of Justice a few years ago?" As Baili Lan thought of this, the space between his eyebrows slightly creased.

"That's right, it's him. Do you know that after Guan Shan was taken away from the prison, he left his Bright Moon Kingdom and took control of the mountain outside of it? If I hadn't met him, he would still be hiding in that little town as his mayor. " Chu Yunge nodded in acknowledgement before continuing, "It was after I met him that I tried my best to persuade him to come to my side and work for me."

"A mere martial general cripple, how dare you set your eyes on him? Fine, since you like trash like that, then take it." Baili Lan's face was already uglier than before, but as an emperor, his Emperor's Qi was still there, his amber eyes shot out a sharp gaze.

"Trash?" When Chu Yunge heard these two words, her eyebrows rose slightly. She raised her head in displeasure, looked at Baili Lan who had seen through her disguise, and said with a stern face, "Guan Shan only killed him because she suffered a defeat that year. But have you ever thought that before this battle, he was also someone who had contributed for your Mountain and River Realm? You don't need to look at the buddhist side. On account of his previous hard work, you should let him live. But you want to kill him just because he did something wrong? Don't you feel that you're being tyrannical? "

When Chu Yunge said this, the palace maids in the corner all raised their heads and sneaked a peek at Chu Yunge.

They hadn't thought that he would dare speak to the Emperor in such a manner under the heavens.

How presumptuous!

"Chu Yunge!"

As expected, after Chu Yunge had just finished speaking, Baili Lan, who was standing in front of her, bellowed angrily. The cold voice came out of his lips and reverberated throughout the whole Town Hall, "You think you're using Great Chu Kingdom? Do you think you're a princess who came here with an envoy to attend the assembly? Don't forget, you are a female thief who swindled the imperial army's salary away. If it wasn't for your father, you wouldn't have stood here and spoken to me, right? "

"I know that it is because of my identity that you are releasing me from the Ministry of Justice's Prison. But I am still a criminal. I have cheated so much of your military pay. You can't lock me up in the palace, can you?" There was not a single trace of fear on Chu Yunge's face. Instead, she laughed disdainfully, "I heard that State Supervisor Temple is a person who had imprisoned a relative of the royal family that committed a heinous crime.

"What are you trying to do by cheating the soldiers?" Baili Lan was not in a hurry to answer Chu Yunge's question. He coldly swept her a glance, and then directly leaped over her towards the Dragon Throne in the main hall.

"I'm not doing anything. It's just a sudden whim, a scam." Chu Yunge was not afraid of death, so she gave such an unreasonable answer.

He turned around and sat down on the Dragon Throne with an extremely domineering attitude, with his back upright. Looking at Chu Yunge who was standing in the middle of the Main Palace, she spat out cold words from her thin lips, "I never thought that you would actually be so relaxed, you actually came to our Bright Moon Kingdom to cheat about pay. That one million silver military salary isn't a small sum. Where did you put that stolen money? "

"Where else? You definitely cannot leave it at the Bright Moon Kingdom, if not, if you discover it, wouldn't it become your property again? " Chu Yunge kept the rogue smile on her mouth, and said seriously, "Of course it's to have sent people to bring back my Great Chu Kingdom long ago."

"You!" Baili Lan was extremely furious, he raised his palm and slammed it onto the rosewood table.

Bang! The rosewood table was shaken by his slap to the ground with a crisp sound.

The court officials standing in the corner trembled in fear before kneeling on the ground. They all said in unison, "Please calm your anger, Your Majesty."

"How dare you, Chu Yunge, do you really think that just by relying on Feng Yi's support, we can't do anything to you?" Baili Lan, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was still fuming. He kept his hand that he had slapped on the table, and raised it to point at Chu Yunge, his fierce eyes shooting out eyes that were as sharp as knives, "A pay of one million silver, you want to transport it away just like that, what do you think our Great Liang City is?"

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger. You're the ruler of a nation. What if your body breaks down from anger?" You don't seem to be the crown prince yet, do you? My sons are still young, they shouldn't have any way to inherit the throne. If you die, then the throne might be taken by one of your brothers. " Chu Yunge stood in the middle of the Main Palace, fearlessly raised her head and met Baili Lan's vicious gaze. His expressionless face gradually revealed a hint of a sinister smile, as if it was a drop of frost on a late autumn morning.

"Chu Yunge, I ask you, is Feng Yi an accomplice and has something to do with this?" Baili Lan suppressed the anger that soared to the heavens in his chest, and continued to sit on the Dragon Throne, tightly holding onto the Dragon Throne's armrest, he gritted his teeth and asked.

"I said, no. At that time, the messenger you sent only caught me. If he had the ability to catch the accomplice, then let them bring the accomplice to confront me. But Feng Yi isn't one of them. Feng Yi is the crown prince of Feng Lai Kingdom, so how could he act so rashly in the martial arts world with a princess like me? It was your former subordinate, Guan Shan, who jointly cheated me of my salary. Other than them, there's no one else. "

"Close down the mountain? It seems that I have made the wrong decision. I should not have executed those people after autumn, but rather killed them on the spot! "Like this, you will have no one to use you today!" Baili Lan raised his eyebrows, his tiger eyes actually filled with viciousness.

Chu Yunge looked at Baili Lan who was sitting on the dragon throne on the platform, and her delicate and pretty eyebrows knitted together into a square. He raised her eyebrows in puzzlement, and her eyes revealed undisguised disdain, and he said with cold anger: "Is Guan Shan a cripple in your eyes? Don't forget, he was once a citizen of Bright Moon Kingdom, he was also someone who had rendered meritorious military service to your army and bled profusely. Don't you think it's too much to deny his previous efforts just because of a single failure? "

Baili Lan narrowed his eyes, and did not answer.

"You naturally wouldn't think that, as the supreme ruler of this country, you would only think of everything in accordance to your own interests and scheme. You simply wouldn't think about the life and death of your brothers. But think about it, if Guan Shan really deserved to be beheaded, why would his comrades risk the extermination of their families to rescue him in the prison of the Ministry of Justice? You really don't think you did anything wrong? "How many soldiers will be disappointed when you kill a soldier who doesn't deserve to die?"

"Alright, you actually spoke of such a great principle to me. If I were to tolerate one failure after another, not only would I not punish him, but I would also reward him. Wouldn't that mean that the three armies in the future would follow suit?" In the future, he wouldn't even need to use his full strength in battle. As long as he could save a dog's life, he could continue to enjoy the salary of an official! "Then wouldn't my mountains and rivers end up in the hands of the three armies?"

A hint of determination appeared on Baili Lan's stern face, and he said with determination, "If there's no rules, it's not within a certain range! There is no rule of law without strict law. Besides, since he was defeated, why didn't he just die? Instead, they had to surrender to Chu Yan? This is the loss of the national might of our Kingdom of Yue! How can you save my face? If he did so, it would be tantamount to sending it to his country for treason. Naturally, he would be punished with treason! As for the severity of the punishment, I only executed him and not the entire family.

"Surrender does not wait for treason. Furthermore, my third brother has a kind heart. As long as I surrender and don't fight, I will not kill them all, much less capture them as prisoners of war. After their profile picture for the day, they rode their warhorses back to their own military camp. They are not considered prisoners of war at all, so how could they be considered traitors? " Chu Yunge stood at the same place with her head held high and her chest puffed up, complaining about the injustice that had happened in Guan Shan, she also asked the question that came from the bottom of her heart, "Just ask, whose life was not given to him by her parents? One life, how precious was that? Since she couldn't win anymore, why did she have to die in battle or commit suicide? Wouldn't staying here to live be the best way to repay the country? If you cannot defeat the enemy, you will commit suicide in battle. This is not called loyalty, this is stupidity! "

"Bullshit, this is a deceit. If it was as you said, once you meet an enemy that you cannot defeat, you would throw away your armor and surrender. I'm afraid that when the day comes when you suddenly raise your arms, wouldn't your Great Chu Kingdom be like a nation that puts down your weapons and loses without fighting?" Baili Lan sat on the dragon throne, lowered his eyes, and looked at Chu Yunge who was standing below the stairs, and revealed a ridiculing smile.

"There are many ways to save a country. He didn't have to be on the battlefield to be able to defeat his opponent. Outside of the battlefield is fine too. " The corner of Chu Yunge's mouth slightly moved, and slowly revealed a faint smile, "However, you will never understand my method. Now that I've finished what I have to say, I wonder if you have anything else to ask? Let's quickly ask, I don't want to continue wasting my breath on you here. "
