RETURN WITH GLORY

After awhile, we packed our things, unfold the tents and ready our horses to Return to the main land, Our Kingdom. We lost a few horses and most of my soldiers were injured, I send all of those injured soldiers in the main land first lead by Deputy Chief Xi while Me and the rest will walk after them. "Chief Xi, I'll put my trust unto you, lead the injured soldiers back, use the horses, we'll walk after you" I calmly said. "I won't let you down, My Lord" he replied. They began to ride back to the main land while we were walking. As we walk, My left thigh hurts, I forgot to secure the bandage. Few soldiers noticed that Im being left behind. "Lord Xinfeng, is something bothering you?" A soldier straightly asked me. "Nothing at all" I replied while catching up to them. After a few minutes of walking, we arrived at the Kingdom, All people came to cheer and thank us. I covered my thigh with cloth to hide my wound, It hurts so bad, What the hell is in that silver arrow? I feel like my thigh is biten by a pack of wolves in the wilderness. But for me its priceless, as I see all the people are happy and not bothered about anything. I walked straight until I reached the palace, I need to report to the Emperor about the War we've been through. Injured soldiers are send to the clinic to seek a physician and the others came to see their families. I firmly walk inside the palace, "Praise and Glory to Emperor Xiantu" I calmly greet the Emperor as I kneel to show my respect. "Well done Warlord Xinfeng, I see that you've worked hard to bring Victory for our Kingdom, What reward do you want" The emperor happily replied. "Their is nothing I can wish for, Just a praise from you is enough your Highness" I replied back. Emperor Xiantu smiled and said "How old are you this year?" The Emperor asked me an odd question. "Im turning 20 this year your highness" I replied. "Great then, My daughter Li Minhai is turning 20 this year, you two would be a good couple" the Emperor replied while laughing and smiling, This makes me awkward and confused, Why would he say such things?. "W-what do you m-mean your highness?" I awkwardly replied. "Warlord Xinfeng, What do you think of my daughter? He said while scratching his beard. " Princess Minhai is pretty and elegant, I-m afraid im not a m-match for her, your highness" I replied back, I noticed that my thigh is bleeding, It hurts a lot, Im sweating and I feel so uncomfortable while kneeling. "Warlord Xinfeng is popular in the Kingdom, known for his greatness in War and good looks, Minhai would be happy if you two would know each other" The emperor replied, He noticed I was uncomfortable and he command his soldier to send me back to my manor. I feel relieved when I heard this. "Many thanks, your highness" I show my gratitude again and leave
