"Your subjects greet Your Highnesses!"
The chorus of Ping He's soldiers filled the air as Zheng and I entered the courtyard.
General Lin Feng and Lieutenant Yong Shi greeted us with wide grins, looking glad to see us.
"Long time no see," Zheng said to them, taking my hand as I stepped up to his side.
"Sire, Ping He has been well. Please do not worry," Lin Feng said as we crossed the courtyard.
Even though there was a training site for the Gold Squad, it looked like they didn't bother to move. The courtyard remained as training site.
Ping He Fu's halls were all still well-maintained despite no one living in them.
The tall tree in the middle of the porch looked regal in the summer evening. Both Zheng and I stared up at it together for a moment.
"Let's rest. We'll meet Royal Father tomorrow morning. General He, please help me send a messenger to the Palace to inform him." Zheng dismissed the two men, who bowed their way out.
