As soon as Prefect Yin finished speaking, the room fell silent.
After a while, someone let out a cold laugh.
Prefect Yin raised his head to meet the gaze.
Commander Xue Chen of the Imperial Guard Cavalry Department said indifferently, "Prefect Yin has several students at the Northern Border, and I've heard they have been faring well under Song Xian. Have you recently corresponded with them and spoken highly of Song Xian?"
Xue Chen had always been discontent with Li You, but he did not wish to pledge allegiance to Empress Xu. If he had to choose, he would choose the Heir of Prince Qi.
Prefect Yin looked at Xue Chen with a calm expression.
Xue Chen continued, "We still have troops at our disposal; we cannot just defect to the Song Thief."
Upon hearing the word "Song Thief," everyone understood Xue Chen's intent.
Prefect Yin asked, "Does Commander Xue intend to lead the troops to confront Song Xian?"
