She really knew how to feel heartache.
If Qianyun really didn't make it through this time…
How was she supposed to go on living?!
"What I have promised, once said, cannot be taken back!" Xiao Luming enunciated each word.
Seeing that the Emperor had already spoken to this extent, Xie Ruotong no longer put up resistance.
She also knew resistance was futile.
"I will take the Great General's place and personally lead the troops to attack the Tatars," Xiao Luming decided.
"Your Majesty!" Xie Ruotong was clearly opposed.
"After this battle, I have gained some experience in war. Moreover, on this expedition, the Daxuan Army holds an absolute advantage; in sheer numbers and geographical position we completely crush them. With such favorable timing, terrain, and unity, it will not be hard to fight. I just said, for the hatred I bear toward the Tatars, I must personally see that their blood pays for blood!" Xiao Luming was resolute.
Xie Ruotong did not dare say more.
