Chapter 1453 - 1454 Flattery to Death
It can be said that this person is extremely loyal and honest, yet also exceptionally capable.
Ye Luo did not pay attention to Xin Chengying’s confession of guilt; instead, he said, "Lord Xin was coerced by threats to his family into securing official positions for two candidates. However, you assigned two county officials to counterbalance them. Subsequently, under certain individuals’ threats, you stood firm and resisted repeatedly. Although, due to your ignorance of the larger picture, your good intentions often led to bad outcomes!"
"Lord Xin, you are indeed guilty. Your guilt lies in being overly timid and overly stubborn! Enough, I won’t bother explaining further. Now, I offer you an opportunity to redeem yourself through meritorious service. Whether you seize it or not is up to you!"
Meritorious service to redeem guilt!
Xin Chengying’s eyes lit up suddenly, and he immediately asked respectfully, "Your Highness, please instruct me!"
No one truly wants to die, no matter the reason. As long as there’s a chance to live, surely no one would willingly choose death!
So at this moment, Xin Chengying naturally eagerly inquired of Ye Luo.
"The solution is actually quite simple. Assist Xiaoyao King. As long as you can cooperate with him to handle the matters of the Demon Clan successfully, your guilt will naturally be forgiven!"
"I am willing!"
Xin Chengying had no reason to refuse, even feeling profound gratitude towards Ye Luo.
...
"I—I too wish to redeem myself through meritorious service. I beg Your Highness to grant me a chance!"
