After the Emperor's words, Ye froze momentarily, but quickly regained his composure: "Your Majesty, I am merely a country man. Though I have shown merit in capturing Qin Kun, there is a vast difference between capturing a man and attacking a city. I believe there are far better warriors among our generals, and the gap is simply too large. I fear I am not fit for this heavy responsibility."
Hearing this, a wave of complex emotions swept over Nan Feng.
However, the Emperor was looking at her as he continued: "Madam Xia, I value your husband's ability to lead and fight in battle greatly, and equally, his sincerity. If I wished for him to lead our troops into combat, what would be your opinion?"
The Emperor suspected that Ye was hesitant due to concerns about Nan Feng's approval.
Nan Feng gave it a careful thought.
