And the source of all this was Count Suo Long's paralysis.
If he were still alive and commanding the Dragon Guard Legion with his formidable reputation, Duke Turing Tuo would not dare to defect.
With Count Suo Long and Duke Turing Tuo, these two military leaders standing firm, no one in the entire military would dare shift their allegiance to Zhi Li, despite their dissatisfaction with King Quo Bian. His rise to the throne had cut off most of their financial avenues.
Given the relationship between Yuwen Gai and Count Suo Long, it wouldn't be too much for him to kneel before Suo Lun and call him 'young master'.
When Suo Lun took control of the Royal City, having utterly no manpower, he once considered giving Yuwen Gai a chance, waiting for his audience.
After all, if he could reuse Chu Ye and Jian Yong, why not Yuwen Gai, who was once so close to his father, Suo Long?
However, he was disappointed.
Even when Zhi Li was defeated, Yuwen Gai did not come to pay him a visit.
