Herman sat behind a table as he waited for an answer from his guests. Following his Advisor's suggestion, Herman immediately put it into motion. He could not bear it anymore because of how the Emperor treated him. He understood why Tang Shaoyang acted that way, but it didn't mean he could tolerate it.
What his Advisor told him was right. He and his nation alone might not be able to contend with the Tang Empire, but if he worked together with the big factions, then they might be able to stand equally against the Tang Empire. He agreed with Frans. The alliance was not to fight the Tang Empire, but it was formed so the Tang Empire acted arbitrarily. He did not want to live under the Tang Empire's mercy, no more of that.
