Chu Pingfeng bowed solemnly and said, "Thank you for your encouragement, Your Highness. I will do my best to live up to your expectations. I will take my leave now."
The Crown Prince nodded. "Very well, Lord Chu. The affairs in the North are arduous. I hope you will take care of your health and not overwork yourself."
"Your Highness is too kind. I will take care of my health and serve the North in better condition," Chu Pingfeng bowed again, his tone full of determination and gratitude.
