Shen Yue didn't need much explanation from others. With his familiarity with human nature, he could roughly deduce the current situation. Zhang Shuye, upon hearing Shen Yue's words, couldn't hide his anger and said, "Geng Nanzhong not only appeases the Jurchens, he wishes to be their lapdog."
Nie Shan glanced around, somewhat indicating for Zhang Shuye to be cautious with his words.
Zhang Shuye said hoarsely, "Lord Nie, Old Zhang is not afraid. Why can they commit treachery, and we cannot speak of it?"
Nie Shan remained silent with bitterness, thinking to himself that such is the way of the world; they commit acts that harm the nation and bring disaster to the people, and even a slight comment from us is deemed a crime.
Zhang Shuye exclaimed indignantly, "They may choose to be dogs, but we choose to be humans, don't we?"
The soldiers around him all showed expressions of rage.
