Upon hearing the peculiar tone in the elder's voice within the grand hall, Pei Wenfu's face instantly darkened.
How could he not discern that this old thing was mocking him?
Pei Wenfu glanced at the elder, then coldly asked, "I wonder what good solutions Minister Pei has?"
Pei Nian, unperturbed, said, "The Great Sum Dynasty is coming with great force, occupying the Biyun Star Domain in such a short time, clearly aiming to annihilate us."
"Even if Your Majesty proposes negotiations, the other side won't agree. We should abandon our illusions, not think of compromising again like we did with the Qingyun Dynasty."
Pei Nian was a follower of Pei Shuhua and also a member of the royal family. When Pei Shuhua's coup failed, Pei Wenfu purged many of Shuhua's associates but left some.
Most of the royal family stood with Pei Shuhua. If Pei Wenfu had purged them all, there would be no one left in the royal family.
