Chapter 905 - 425: The King has passed away! Fang Qingzhuo’s plot to kill her husband!
Duke Turing Tuo could not accept this!
He was not like Chu Ye; he had never been anyone’s subordinate.
He had always been one of the most powerful nobles in the Rage Wave Kingdom, commanding the wind and summoning the rain, and his influence was sky-high.
When King Quo Bian was sidelined, his authority even surpassed that of Zhi Li. Although Zhi Li was the crown prince, whenever they met in private, Zhi Li had to greet him with a bow, showing utmost respect.
Especially after Turing Mo married Zhi Li, the latter would often say that, having lost his parents at a young age, seeing Duke Turing Tuo was like having his father still alive.
Moreover, Duke Turing Tuo controlled half of the Rage Wave Kingdom’s military forces. Simply in terms of power, he had surpassed everyone else. Even Zhi Li’s fate was in his hands. Whenever he decided to play both sides, Zhi Li would be so frustrated he’d wish for death.
For decades, he had been worshipped at all times.
Now, to have him kneel before someone else, and especially before a man like Suo Lun whom he had never deemed worthy, was impossible!
Suo Lun? What was he two or three years ago? Nothing but a useless second-generation scion. It wasn’t only Duke Turing Tuo who didn’t take him seriously; even his daughter, Turing Duo, looked down on him.
And now, to have Duke Turing Tuo actively kneel before him? It simply couldn’t be done.
Duke Turing Tuo’s knees were stiff; he couldn’t kneel down. His spine was stiff; he couldn’t bend.
