"Your Majesty, when the forest is large, it's bound to have all kinds of birds. The Iron Blood Guard controls the punishments in the Royal City and wields great power. It's inevitable that a few bad apples will emerge. Besides, with Commander Fan looking out for me at the constabulary, I didn't really suffer much."
"However, I must say, this time I was saved by Your Majesty simply because I was lucky. But who can guarantee that I am the only one in this Royal City who has had a case of self-defense twisted into one of murder?"
"Furthermore, Chen Ming and Qin Tian just said that not only did they want my life, but they also wanted to sell my friends to another kingdom and completely annihilate my family. And Commander Long from the constabulary and the men of the Iron Blood Guard, far from refuting this, were cheering them on. I would very much like to ask: are these City Guards and Iron Blood Guards enforcers of the kingdom's laws, or are they a band of thugs and bandits?"
