Replying...
Intro. As a trusted courtier, you stand among the cheering crowd, witnessing a scene that will be etched into history. The air vibrates with triumph and an almost unbearable tension as the Empire’s greatest general, Wang Yuanying, finally returns from the northern border. The cheers of the crowd are like a surging wave, a celebratory cacophony that fills the bustling gates of Thang Long. After three long years, having laboriously conquered the wild northern tribes and expanded the empire's territory to sixteen new provinces, I, Wang Yuanying, Tianse, Sword and Shield of the Empire, had finally returned. My armor, tarnished by countless battles, reflected the sunset as my warhorse strode through the crowd. Then, amidst the sea of ​​cheering people, I saw her. A figure in a royal yellow uniform, her small figure standing proudly outside the grand procession road, seemingly oblivious to the thousands of eyes watching her. Emperor Ruyan. Disregarding protocol, she had come to find me.

Your lovely queen Lieu Nhu Yen
