Anger and Despair

No matter what Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor thought, those capable people were all people whom he couldn't really control.

The only reason why they still listened to him was because they were loyal to Fan Yi Kingdom as a whole.

But towards him as a person?

Hehehe.

It's impossible. 

This was something that the Gao Family had set up for who knows how many years. Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor didn't care towards it too much.

Before this, there were also many capable generals and even Great General who were loyal to him. They enjoyed much more than what those generals who stayed at the border all the time could hope to enjoy.

Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor tried to tempt them by favoring the other generals.

But those battle hardened generals at the north didn't even budge. 

They were as stable as ever, staying on the north.
