"Your Highness is truly righteous!"
"Your Highness has great foresight!"
"We will all obey Your Highness!"
"..."
Amid cheers, Lu Yanzheng left.
As Xiao Rui watched his retreating figure, his heart was filled with excitement.
His decision was definitely right!
Lu Yanzheng is putting into practice what he once told Grandpa Lu.
“Grandpa, now that I have accepted what the Seventh Prince left behind, I will do everything in my power to fulfill his wishes.”
These were the words Lu Yanzheng said when he accepted the gift from the Lu family. At that time, he and An Shiqi were watching from the shadows.
After Lu Yanzheng left, Xiao Rui and the other new recruits were taken to do basic training. At noon, everyone lined up to get their meals from the mess hall.
Xiao Rui was walking in the middle when he heard people talking behind him.

"How fast could it be? And where did you get this information?"
"Hehe, my uncle is a blacksmith. He was conscripted to build ships. He's the one who told me about the warships. I heard they can reach speeds of eighty kilometers per hour even against the wind!"
"What? Eighty kilometers? That's one hundred and sixty li! So fast? And against the wind?!"
"My uncle was involved in the construction, so it shouldn't be wrong..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Rui felt as if the whole world had fallen silent.
A ship traveling 160 li per hour against the wind? Even the imperial warships, with the wind at their fastest, only manage 40 li per hour! "Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! May all my darlings have smooth sailing and all your wishes fulfilled in the new year! Also, this book might be ending soon; the data isn't great, which is a bit of a shame. Darlings, please reply here with anything you'd like to see, and I'll arrange the plot accordingly. Thank you all again, love you all~"
