"Your Majesty, you can't just listen to what these people say. I watched Chen Bei grow up. I know him best. For so many years, he didn't even have a concubine in his East Palace. How could he hide a girl in Junzhong? This is too unbelievable."

King Li's words made the angry King Wei somewhat hesitant.

"Your Majesty, these soldiers are really pitiful. Those who are fighting in the front are missing a hand. What will they do in the future?"

Concubine Xi, who had been sitting next to them without saying a word, now covered her eyes with her sleeves and pretended to wipe away her tears.

"Please, my king, have mercy and give us brothers a chance to live."

The soldier was very good at taking advantage of the situation and immediately fell to the ground and kowtowed.

"How many of your soldiers are injured? It's really pitiful."

Concubine Xi had a look of pity on her face.

"Your Highness, there are eight of us."

Tsk tsk, the hands of eight people were chopped off. Just thinking about that scene, it was really... Xi Fei pretended that her face changed and she panted slightly.

"The king loves his people the most. I think when these people go back, they will have old mothers to support and delicate wives and weak children to take care of. They are really pitiful."

When Concubine Xi said this, it not only showed that she was kind, but also showed how cruel Prince Chen Bei was. How could such a person be the king of David?

"All injured soldiers will be allowed to return to the capital, disarm and return to their fields, and each will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold."

One hundred taels of gold is not a small sum. With this money, you can buy land and property and become a small landlord. The soldiers kowtowed quickly. They shouted "Long live the king, the king is merciful."

"Go down."

King Wei waved his hand and asked the soldiers to leave.

"When you return, you should be grateful for the imperial court's gift. I don't need to tell you what to do."

King Li's calm voice sounded.

After all, this was in the back hall, the inner hall, and those present were all members of the royal family. If such a thing were to be spread, it would surely ruin the reputation of the crown prince and have a huge impact. King Li certainly wanted to make a big deal out of it.

"The slave understands."

The soldiers thanked him and left. There was an awkward feeling in the air. Although the King of Wei was very angry, the Crown Prince was his son after all, and he would lose face if something like this happened. Naturally, he didn't want the outsiders to know. But as a king, he naturally couldn't say what he had just said directly. He was very satisfied with the way his brother handled it.

In the internal strife of the royal family, in order to ascend the throne, his brothers and sisters all died in his hands in the battle for the succession of the royal family. This King Li was not actually his biological brother, but a distant cousin. Moreover, King Li had polio since childhood, and he was always kind. Moreover, King Li had no sons, only two daughters. Therefore, there was no threat to his throne, and he could often help him, so King Wei trusted this cousin very much.

"Tomorrow morning, my brother, you must submit a memorial to request the replacement of the commander-in-chief."

King Wei said in a heavy tone.

"Brother Wang, this is absolutely not allowed. Changing the commander in chief during a battle is a taboo. Besides, we are currently being besieged by the Qin army."

"We can't believe the story of being surrounded by Qin. Uncle Wang, don't you think about it? If we were really surrounded like the prince said, how could the people from the Imperial Master's Mansion get out? I think the most likely possibility is that our prince kept a concubine in the big tent, which made him lose interest in fighting, resulting in today's situation of either breaking or building."

"My queen, you can't say that. The situation ahead is unclear. We should wait a little longer."
