Ivita said indifferently, "Only the chief offenders need to be executed, the fate of the servants can be determined based on the situation."
The four Imperial Guard Knights showed surprise and delight on their faces.
Ivita glanced at them. "However, the Imperial Guard will be shown no mercy."
"I will join you in the execution of the five thousand Imperial Guard within the city, and you are destined to win this battle."
The Imperial Guard Knights suddenly looked alarmed and all said to Ivita, "Your Majesty, we have heard that you are extremely merciful. You have tolerated those corrupt nobles in the Hall of Discussion, so why can you not tolerate us, the Imperial Guard?"
"The Imperial Guard are only fulfilling our duties and not truly your enemies at heart."
"Yes, you should treat us, the Imperial Guard, without discrimination. At worst, we can help you kill Jalen and stand by your side," they suggested.
