The investigation by the Clan House revealed that the main cause of the incident was Hao Commandery Prince's overconfidence and Meng Lang's impetuousness, with no relation to Xiao Limo. However, even so, it implicated the futures of many people.
And Xiao Limo also took responsibility by resigning and returned to Return to Dragon City in a semi-retired state.
Yet, the Emperor trusted Xiao Limo extremely and could not bear to see his abilities and lifelong reputation buried, so he still appointed him to the honorary post of Grand Marshal, tasked exclusively with various construction and training missions for the army.
In such a situation, with Xiao Limo's restraint, Emperor Zi'an could not completely have his way in commanding the corps. If Xiao Limo found any military operation too dangerous, he had the authority to hold it back and propose better suggestions.
But this time, the whole army was brimming with confidence.
