Chapter 922 - 430: Ascending to the Throne! Situation Reversed!_3
But justice comes at a great cost, and that cost must be considered.
Thus, these officials were desperately calling for Duke Zhi Ting to come out, hoping someone would take the lead and shield them from the executioner’s blade in crucial moments.
Previously, Duke Zhi Ting was considered by them as an incompetent dandy, a piece of trash of the kingdom. Now he has become the pillar of the kingdom, its towering jade column!
In just over an hour, officials kneeling outside of Duke Zhi Ting’s mansion have fainted from tears ten or more times, and three have vomited blood.
Hundreds of people, their cries shaking the heavens!
Finally, the mansion gates were opened, and Duke Zhi Ting, after countless calls, finally appeared before them.
Instantly, everyone rushed forward to kneel and weepingly said, "Your Grace, the Rage Wave Kingdom has reached its most dangerous moment. With Princess Zhi Yan missing and Lord Suo Lun not present, you must rescue the kingdom from collapsing."
Duke Zhi Ting asked, "How should I save it?"
The leading noble said, "Lead us to stop the calamities caused by the evil beings."
"Calamities caused by evil beings?" Duke Zhi Ting said, "What do you mean by calamities? Can you clarify?"
If you don’t even dare to speak the name Zhi Li, how can you expect to push me forward to lead you in opposing Zhi Li?
