"Count Yaxun, you really did have the ability to foresee things in advance."
Count Goren's bedraggled voice rang out, and Count Yaxun's expression darkened.
How hadn't he died in there?
Count Yaxun felt the urge to kill him and silence him forever, but upon seeing the guards beside Count Goren, he immediately changed his tune.
"I only noticed something was wrong while inspecting the provisions. By the time I wanted to notify you, it was already too late. When marching to war, miscalculations are unavoidable. I could only offer suggestions; you, as the commander-in-chief, were the one who truly made the decisions.
"Although I bear responsibility for this miscalculation, the one who truly needs to take responsibility is you, the commander-in-chief."
"You..."
Count Goren was furious enough to want to kill Count Yaxun on the spot, but the guards beside him stopped him in time.
"My lord, if you kill Count Yaxun, then once we return to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, we truly won't be able to explain ourselves."
Count Goren forcibly suppressed the rage in his heart. He intended to return to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace and report the entire matter. Since he could not uncover Count Yaxun's motives himself, he would leave it to His Majesty to handle.
For Count Goren to serve as the Goren Family's representative at court, he was certainly not some useless fool.
Though he was extremely enraged at the moment, keeping Count Yaxun alive would clearly be more useful.
"Why kill them all?" Lei Zhen could not help asking when he saw that Kui Xin had deliberately held back.
"I'm not certain whether my judgment is correct, so I need to test it again and again. For now, it seems to differ little from what I suspected."
