2045 Internal Conflicts
"Yes, Your Majesty." Heavenly General Sang cupped his fist. "I would like to request to handle the deployment of the soldiers to face General Xing and the other generals from Fei Yang Kingdom."
This request was not out of the blue for Heavenly General Sang. After listening to the report of the loss of the battle, Heavenly General Sang understood very well that these people who were facing Long Qian Xing and the others were really incompetent. The war that should have been in their favor could be overturned.
It was really frustrating to read and as the one from Shi Long Kingdom and also their sides, Heavenly General Sang really wanted to go straight to the south and gave these people some beatings.
Unfortunately, his old age had already made it impossible.
Now, all Heavenly General Sang could do was to take over the arrangement of the soldiers in the capital city as much as possible before Long Qian Xing came here. At the same time, he had to prepare a lot of defense on the way to prevent those people from Fei Yang Kingdom from reaching Shi Long Kingdom's Capital City so easily. For this, he had prepared a lot of things.
But things wouldn't be so easy if he didn't have the power.
He had to race against time because he was not sure that Long Qian Xing would be able to reach the place sooner than he expected.
If that was the case, the traps would be useless as it hadn't been set up properly.
So in order to ensure that Shi Long Kingdom would not lose, Heavenly General Sang decided to come forward to Emperor Shi Wang to propose handing the power to him and let him be the one in charge.
Emperor Shi Wang frowned and looked at the two prime ministers.
To be honest, even if he was nothing more than a puppet emperor, which he himself also knew, he still tried his best to limit the power of these ministers when it was possible. After all, he knew very well that it was not easy for him to survive if these ministers were too powerful.
Heavenly General Sang was already famous on the battlefield.
After that, Emperor Shi Wang had given him enough honor and Heavenly General Sang himself was not a person who coveted power.
In this way, they were able to get along harmoniously for several years without any conflicts whatsoever.
But now... Heavenly General Sang wanted more power?
Emperor Shi Wang was hesitant.
"I think Heavenly General Sang should have his reasons for this." Prime Minister Zhi took a deep breath. "If Heavenly General Sang could help us win in this perilous war against Fei Yang Kingdom, it would be for the best."
Prince Wu, who was in the room, also wanted to raise his opinion. But he also knew that his power was not stable yet and if he were to stand up so suddenly, he might end up being targeted.
For the sake of his little life, Prince Wu could only hold back and lowered his head. But his fingers were all clenched.
He wanted to participate in this discussion too.
If only it was possible, he wanted to be the one to replace his father and become the emperor of Shi Long Kingdom.
