Chapter 624 - Winning Support

"For the past few decades, the imperial court prohibited us from starting any border conflicts or fights with the Shatu Seven Tribes due to the Writ of Grace. As a result, we had to back down as we were not allowed to send any soldiers out of White Stone Pass. Under such circumstances, the Prefectural Governor's Office didn't want to be held accountable for any of our soldiers' deaths or pay the death gratuity to the affected families either. Not only were the affected families not given any benefits, they even questioned the leading officers. So strictly speaking, the White Stone Pass' soldiers who were sacrificed during the past few decades got nothing from the imperial court!" Tie Yunshan's tone was pained, and the other officers in the room fell silent too.
