The order came like a bolt from the blue, even Grand Commandant Zhao couldn't help but look at the Regent King.
"Re...Re...Regent King." King Jiaxing's smile vanished in fear, and his round, pea-like eyes couldn't widen any further.
He was so flustered that he couldn't even speak clearly.
Blinking twice, King Jiaxing couldn't understand why the Regent King would demote him after taking on the task that no one else wanted.
Moreover, he would be reduced to a commoner with no distinction from ordinary people!
Ever since he was chased out of the Capital by his father at the age of four, he had lived like a local emperor in his territory, with local officials treating him well.
Coming back to the Capital after much difficulty, he had only enjoyed this luxury for a very short time, and now he was about to be demoted again?
No matter what, he was not willing; he quickly looked towards the little emperor sitting on the throne, crying for help: "Your Majesty!"
