Chapter 515: Zhang San's karma must be repaid by Zhang San himself!

Above the imperial court, the atmosphere was solemn.

Emperor Kaihuang set down the memorial he was holding and asked the assembly below, "Ministers and generals of the full court, why do you remain silent?"

Many furrowed their brows and clenched their teeth, unsure of what to say.

For the matter Emperor Kaihuang wished to discuss concerned the incident at Longyun Path where General Ningyuan, Zhang San of the Lingwu Army, shot and killed Maxim, the Second Khan of Tujue.

Everyone knew that a general of Great Sui, having killed the Second Khan of Tujue, had indeed achieved a great feat worthy of reward and recognition.

Yet, all were aware that the death of this Second Khan would likely lead Tujue to declare war on Great Sui.

It was as though Zhang San, despite earning merit, had also brought a disaster upon Great Sui.

Therefore, at this moment, many were uncertain whether they should praise Zhang San or accuse him of guilt.
