When the commoners heard Gong Jue’s words, they were shocked!
They still did not know what had happened. They only knew that Lord Jue did not die three years ago and that it was Lord Jue who led the Han bei Ling to a great victory. This made them very grateful. Hence, when they learned that Gong Jue had returned to the country, word spread like wildfire, they came to welcome him on their own accord.
But... the engineer who won was guilty instead? Lord Jue was going to be arrested instead. What was going on?
In the crowd, when the engineers saw Gong Jue stepping forward to speak up for them, they were all touched. Everyone could not help but start to explain to the crowd.
After they returned to the capital, the 20,000 of them were dismissed from their jobs. They were dismissed on the spot one by one. Not only did they not have any merit, they even had to be convicted.
