Inside the hall.
The ministers all frowned deeply.
Chong Heihu, too, stared into Shen Gongbao's eyes.
He wanted to find some sign that Shen Gongbao was lying.
Unfortunately, Shen Gongbao's expression did not change. He revealed no emotion whatsoever.
"Those demons... are backing Liang Shang against you?"
Chong Heihu frowned. "So this half of the military tally is completely useless now? You can't mobilize those armies?"
"Your Majesty, although this military tally in my possession is incomplete, I have a way to restore it and present the complete item to Your Majesty."
Shen Gongbao smiled calmly and offered up the military tally.
"Bring it here."
At Chong Heihu's command, an attendant hurried down and brought it over.
"A military tally... a military tally..."
Chong Heihu turned the military tally over in his hand.
His gaze was profound.
As the ruler of the New Dynasty, he was shrouded in the Fortune Aura of an entire territory.
Naturally, he could tell whether the military tally was genuine.
This military tally contained dense Fortune Aura and an overwhelming presence. It was no fake!
The object in his hand represented most of the Northern Border's territory. If he could successfully bring it under his control, the Northern Border would be completely under his command.
From then on,
he would no longer stir up trouble.
He could even seek opportunities for his own development by secretly pledging allegiance to West Qi and Great Shang.
Just as Shen Gongbao had said.
For now, he could secretly plot his development. Once his troops were strong and his horses well-fed, after Great Shang and West Qi had both suffered losses, he could contend for supremacy in the Central Plains and sweep aside all before him!!
At that time, the whole world would be in his grasp.
Wouldn't that
