Chapter 350 - 349: Expelling the Disloyal
The soldiers twisted their necks, remaining silent, but their demeanor clearly approved of Shi Jing’s speculation.
Another cold laugh followed as Shi Jing continued, "If we were on the battlefield now, and the enemy had already attacked. The Princess gives you an order, yet you harbor doubts about her. Would you rebel?"
The crowd again fell silent.
After a long while, a subordinate of Deputy General Zheng spoke up, "General Shi, there’s no need to test us. Since we’ve become soldiers, we know we must obey. If we were actually on the battlefield now, and the Princess gave us any order, we would follow it."
The others seemed suddenly enlightened.
They began nodding one after another.
"Exactly, we would follow the Princess’s orders."
"Really?" The scorn in Shi Jing’s eyes only intensified.
"Truly! Although we don’t agree with the Princess pretending to have superior medical skills, disregarding the lives of us soldiers, if it were on the battlefield, we would definitely unite against the enemy," they responded with unwavering certainty.
But this answer didn’t satisfy Shi Jing at all.
