The critical point was that the East State Inspection Department had overturned the previous judgment, retracting the warrants for Chu Xisheng and Tie Xiaosheng, leaving them with grievances they could not vent.
After the numerous masters of the State Army had cleaned up the battlefield, Wei Lai casually tossed the bloody head of Sikong Chan in front of Tie Xiaosheng.
"The governor commands that the head of Sikong Chan be temporarily lent to you. However, after three days, it must be returned to the Tianping Army without damage," he said.
The Governor of East State clearly intended this act as a gesture to win over Chu Xisheng.
Wei Lai disapproved of the governor's actions but had no choice but to obey his orders.
Moreover, if Tie Xiaosheng hadn't intercepted today, Governor Sikong Chan might have escaped.
And after Wei Lai and the many other State Army masters had left, three chief catchers from Six Gates still remained, their eyes coldly fixed on Tie Xiaosheng.
