Commander Xi and Long Zhao Feng practically started their career at the same time. While Long Zhao Feng ended up as one of the military generals who fought at the borders to defend the Hong Kingdom, Commander Xi worked to protect the palace in general and the royal family in specific from any threat. Their work never intersected, but they harbored a deep respect for each other.
Despite the respect that he had for Long Zhao Feng, Commander Xi was still a proud man who insisted on being punished due to his mistakes. He thus shot Long Zhao Feng a glare and spoke coldly.
"Thank you for General Long's kindness. Tonight is clearly a failure on my side. Please do not ask for leniency on my behalf."
Long Zhao Feng responded with a mechanical smile.
"I have great respect for Commander Xi. I will never belittle your contribution on purpose. It's just that this time it is really not your fault."
The King grew impatient.
