Back then, he was able to beco the Zhanling Emperor because of the support of Zhan Beiye’s maternal family. It was also because he had Zhan Beiye as his son that he could beco the Emperor of the Zhanling Empire.
There were also rumors that he beca the Emperor because he promised to make Zhan Beiye the new Emperor after 100 years.
But how could he admit that?
Was he not the Zhanling Emperor because he was outstanding?
In the end, everyone felt that all the benefits were because of Zhan Beiye and his b*tch mother. How could he allow them to be so arrogant in the Zhanling Empire?
Hence, he did many things over the years. Zhan Beiye’s mother had also died, and her family had fallen.
He only spared Zhan Beiye because he was his son, but he did not expect a loner like Zhan Beiye to force him into this corner.
He and the Yueming Emperor were in the sa boat now. They had lost 10 cities each, and the tributes from these cities each year were the highest in Zhanling Empire.
“Why aren’t you talking? Aren’t you usually talkative? Are you mute now that I need you?”
He was furious as he looked at the generals and marquises who had shrunk back in fear.
But what could they say? Besides the ministers who supported Zhan Beixiao, everyone present knew that Zhan Beiye was the most outstanding among all the princes.
It was only natural for him to beco the next Zhanling Emperor. However, the Zhanling Emperor did not fancy him. What else could they do?
They had lost their cities, military morale, and the hearts of the people. Why would they have to exhaust manpower and resources to send troops to recover the lost land? They felt that they would only suffer greater losses in the end.
A minister stood up and suggested, “Your Majesty, I think we should gather the dicine refiners to refine the Cloud-Breaking Pill. I heard that Prince Zhan has a lot of Cloud-Breaking Pills. That’s how he won the battle against Prince Xiao.
“If we also have the Cloud-Breaking Pills, the Prince Zhan will definitely be afraid and we can reclaim the lost cities.”
The generals pursed their lips and stayed silent.
Cloud-Breaking Pills were very useful on the battlefield and were more effective than firearms.
However, were Cloud-Breaking Pills that easy to refine? Everyone knew that refining the Cloud-Breaking Pill would very certainly result in death. Moreover, many people would die if it exploded.
The Zhanling Emperor was rendered speechless.
Refining the Cloud-Breaking Pill? If he had a dicine refiner who could do that, he would have no worries. He could refine a large number of Cloud-Breaking Pills. He could even take down the Yueming Empire, let alone Zhan Beiye.
But was that possible?
Who had ever refined a pill as powerful as Zhan Beiye’s Cloud -Breaking Pills?
The royal court fell silent. No one spoke. The Zhanling Emperor’s gaze was fixed on the minister who had suggested it.
He was really rubbing things in his face! He was angry at Zhan Beiye for having such a powerful dicine refiner. Yet they started comparing his dicine refiners to Zhan Beiye’s?
“Your Majesty, I think the most important thing now is to bring Prince Xiao back,” a minister reminded the Zhanling Emperor. Prince Xiao was the most important.. They could not let a prince suffer outside, right?
