“Your Highness, I’m back!”
At the Prince of Qi’s manor in Qingzhou, civil and military officials had gathered.
In the center of the grand hall, Yue Yun and the surviving sailors dropped to their knees, crying uncontrollably.
Even Niu Ben and Lu Fei were moved. Of the more than seven hundred men who had set out, only two hundred and thirty-one returned. Two-thirds of the navy had perished in the vast sea.
Xiao Ming stepped forward and helped the soldiers up one by one. His eyes were hot with emotion. He had known from the start that the journey would be dangerous, but these men still went without hesitation.
It was because of brave, selfless soldiers like them that his territory stood strong and unshaken.
Xiao Ming believed in weapons—but more than anything, he believed in his men. Without their courage and sacrifice, how could he sit safely in this hall?
“Soldiers, it is I who should salute you.”
A thousand words in his heart condensed into a single deep bow.
Yue Yun and the others had red eyes, but their expressions remained firm. Together they shouted, “Our honor lies in our loyalty! For Your Highness, we fear neither death nor sacrifice! All so that one day, Your Highness will ensure that the people of the six prefectures are never humiliated by foreign invaders again!”
