"Your Majesty, the enemy has been completely annihilated, and more than 10,000 prisoners have been captured," a general reported.
"Where are the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty?" The Fourth Prince sat on his high seat, his brows revealing an unconcealable weariness and an untouchable nobility.
"Your Majesty, our Great Qing has suffered over seven thousand casualties." The general in charge of clearing the battlefield stepped forward to report, his voice choked with emotion. The soldiers were very close; they ate, drank, and played together most of the time. Yet, their bonds were also fragile, for no one knew who would survive the battle.
"Give them a proper burial, and also, give the order to take good care of the families of the fallen soldiers." The Fourth Prince took a deep breath. There are no winners in war, only losers. In this war against foreign aggression, the Qing Dynasty lost half of its soldiers.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say." Suhar stepped out from the ranks.
Fourth Master nodded.
"Your Majesty, this time, the soldiers of Dayuan suffered heavy losses in order to assist the Qing Dynasty. The people of Dayuan value returning to their roots, and we wish to bring the fallen soldiers back to Dayuan." The soldiers of Dayuan were all brave and always charged ahead in battle. The Fourth Prince had always seen this camaraderie.
He immediately granted Suhar's request, adding, "Do you remember the agreement I made with you before?"
“Of course I remember!” Suhar said.
"Since I have said it, I will definitely keep my word. From now on, this pasture of the Xiongnu will belong to your Dayuan Dynasty." The Fourth Prince had someone bring out the compensation document signed by the Xiongnu and presented it to Suhar.
“On behalf of the Dayuan Dynasty, Suhar thanks Your Majesty for your grace. Long live the Emperor!”
"I'll set off immediately to tell my father the good news!" Suhar was overjoyed, but Ushiha was not. She tugged at Suhar's sleeve and said, "Husband, I miss our child." The journey to Dayuan and back would take several months.
After hearing what she said, Suhar became much more rational, but he had other plans for the ranch and couldn't not go back. So he said to Ushiha, "You go back with Father Emperor first. Once I've resolved the matter in Dayuan, I'll go back to find you immediately."
Ushiha: "But..."
"But what?"
"You have so many beautiful women in Dayuan, what will you do if you forget me?" Wuxiha said deliberately.
Suhar laughed heartily: "You stole my heart long ago. Now there are three people living in my heart: you, me and your child. There is no room for anyone else. Don't worry."
“I like hearing that,” Ushiha chuckled.
Fourth Master: "Ahem."
Ushiha and Suhar immediately separated, almost forgetting that they were now in the royal tent.
Fourth Master and Ushiha personally escorted Suhar and the army of Dayuan back. After watching Suhar leave, the father and daughter strolled around. Fourth Master looked at the yellow sand swirling in the distance and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
“I know what Father Emperor is thinking,” Ushiha said.
"Then tell me, what do you know?" Fourth Master asked.
"Father Emperor is thinking that from now on, the borders of the Great Qing can be peaceful."
Fourth Master laughed loudly, "You're the most clever one."
