(MC POV)
So… Remember how Feng Xian wanted to betray the king?
Well obviously he doesn't have that idea anymore but… It seemed like his attempted coup inspired several others to rise up against the crown as well.
Although from what I heard, the civil war had already been going on for a while, it was just that quite a number had been on the fence about it.
The news about Feng Xian rebelling was enough to convince them to rebel as well, even though they did not know the real reason behind his rebellion.
"Reporting to your Majesty! The entire southern and eastern territories have risen up in rebellion against us!" The soldier reported.
"What?! How dare they?! On what basis are they rebelling against me?!!"
"It… It seems like they are men who no longer wish to be blessed by the pleasure of being dominated anymore…"
"Preposterous! Have they all lost their minds?!! How can anyone deny such pleasures?!"
