“After you left, the prince built a new house for our family and gave us several acres of fertile land.”

"The county magistrate is still in the county. He built a shrine for you so that everyone in the county would know that you killed more than twenty Japanese pirates and avenged the elders and folks who were killed by the Japanese pirates."

"The village also erected a monument for you, with your birth date and time and your deeds written on it."

“Often, some old scholars would bring some students to worship you. They said you were a hero, a hero who protected the country.”

“Now officials come to our house every month to see if they’ve been bullying us.”

“A few thugs who were passing by our house raised their voices a little, and they were arrested.”

"Now even the village chief doesn't dare to speak loudly when he comes into our house, for fear of being arrested by the authorities."

“You are better than your father. You left behind so many things to protect Dongniang and the child. Your father died, leaving us, mother and child, to depend on each other and suffer all kinds of bullying from others.”

"Now that you're gone, your mother will never see you again."

Thinking of her child lying in this box, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

"My son, my son, what will I do without you? My heart aches for you, my heart aches for you."

Those people dressed in white couldn't help but tear up when they heard the old woman's words.

Throughout history, what battle has never ended without casualties? But this is the first time they've seen someone truly care for the fallen soldiers.

The child of a fallen soldier touched the coffin and said, "Dad, I want to join the army when I grow up. I want to protect my country and become a hero like you."

The child's mother hugged him tightly and said, "My son, you must remember to serve in the Prince's army, because in this world, only the Prince cares about us common people."
