After returning, Lion reported this matter to Vera.
"After going through our efforts and convincing arguments, with the addition of silver to pave the way, the Empress finally loosened her lips and willingly allowed the Prince to leave! Upon returning, inform the Northland ruler and let him settle the remaining payment!"
Vera was extremely delighted, saying, "Thank you, sir!"
Overjoyed, Vera returned and wrote a letter to report this matter.
Not long after, in a distant place, Northland Ruler received a letter sent by Vera, and at the same time, received a response from the court.
He was informed that the Prince had been released and he was to send someone to escort him back.
The ruler was ecstatic, saying, "It's truly wise to let Lion handle it! According to Vera, once he receives the money, he will ascend to the throne and immediately resolve the situation. He is truly a talented individual!"
