Suspicion

But in this critical moment, Duke White was actually saying that he didn't have any resources needed for the war.

No, he didn't say that.

But these nobles were all acting that way one by one. Otherwise, they would not come to see him here. 

It seemed to say that they were all so stupid and thoughtless that they never thought about preparing for rainy days. 

What in the world they were doing over the years that they didn't have any resources left for the Yellow Kingdom's King?

Now, Duke White was coming here, the suspicion of the Yellow Kingdom's King had reached the peak!

"Your Majesty…" Duke White opened his mouth but he didn't know how to explain. Could he possibly say that he hadn't truly managed his territory well?

If he dared to say that, he was sure that the Yellow Kingdom's King would dare to take back the territory and handed it to someone else!

Duke White couldn't say it.

Not even if he was beaten to death!
