The next day, the army set out on their campaign. Even though they did not leave through the city gates of the capital, one could still see the endless procession of troops from high ground.
Zhulan greatly regretted not being able to personally witness the army's departure. It wasn't a special effect from a TV drama, nor was it acted out by extras. The troops had left before dawn, and today the city gates leading to Dongbei were tightly shut, accessible only to officials.
Zhou Shuren missed it too, as he was extremely busy.
Ming Hui from the Zhou family wanted to see it, and his interest was piqued knowing that Ming Teng could leave the city.
Unfortunately, Ming Teng was known for being fair and unyielding when it came to duties, despite his generally approachable demeanor with his younger brothers. Ming Hui's hopes were thus crushed, and he had to obediently head to the Academy.
