When Ye Zhen directly stated that the first troop to be reallocated was the Tiger Vanguard Army, Chu River was stunned.
It was not until this moment that Chu River began to realize the most fundamental reason why Ye Zhen had suddenly stopped being a Special Envoy and, after issuing a Talisman Communication, underwent a grand transformation, ascending to the rank of an independent Deputy Marshal: It was because of him!
It was to deal with him, Chu River. As for the conflict with Grand Marshal Gu Zhaoge, it was merely an excuse.
Endless regret welled up in Chu River's heart.
If only he had been a bit more agreeable, if only he had spoken with a softer tone, then perhaps he would not have provoked such a perverse reaction from Ye Zhen.
But even with his rich imagination, he could not conceive how an out-of-favor Duke Wusan could wield such immense power, to the point of directly pressuring the current Emperor.
Along with his endless regret, fear also rose within Chu River.
