After the Eastern Barbarian soldiers retreated, the news of the people being content quickly spread throughout the land like a kick in the leg.
Before the army had even returned to the Yucai City, news had already spread back here.
Although the withdrawal of troops was a great humiliation to the imperial government, it was a relief to the commoners.
Anyone with a suitable age within their family was called to be a soldier, charging into battle for the Eastern Barbarian. As parents, who wouldn't care about their own children on the battlefield? Who wouldn't hope for the war to come to an end, and for their children to return safely?
As a result, when Chu Yixuan was in Yucai City, he found out that the Eastern Barbarian soldiers were retreating.
Lu Ming was surprised and happy at the same time. "Your highness was right, they really retreated!"
