"Has everyone gone to kneel and ask for forgiveness?"
The shrewd man nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty, starting with Lu Kang of the Lu Family, as long as they are alive, all the aristocratic young masters who participated in the Sword Hunting have gone to Zheng Ming's residence to ask for forgiveness."
"Hmph, how disappointing, these noble families have no sense of shame." Sikong Zifu's palm slammed heavily onto the table, and his voice was filled with unmasked anger.
The shrewd man said nothing, but his heart was full of criticism towards Sikong Zifu. As the monarch of the dynasty, if you, Sikong Zifu, are helpless against that kid named Zheng Ming, how do you expect the other families to act?
