Chapter 632
"What Lord Hou said makes sense, but Song Bokang falsely accuses us of colluding with the Rong Clan. Even if we die here, we still have to bear the eternal infamy."
"We know what we are doing, I'm a soldier of the Empire. All I can do now is to have a clear conscience. If we can break this situation, we'll go to Chang'an, plead for justice from the court."
Baili Sheng did not really care about his loyalty to the court. If possible, he too wished to seize his own interests amidst this war-torn era, to compete for the world. Even if he had no chance of reaching the supreme throne, he could still aspire to rule a kingdom. The fact was that over the years, the Li royal family had completely lost the hearts of the people.
However, disloyalty to the court did not necessarily mean disloyalty to the Empire. He refused to side with the Rong Clan and help them fight against the Empire.
