367. Mingled Emotions, Urgent Report from Jiangnan
The Black Cloud Cavalry, like a black tempest, swept across the entire battlefield in an instant. The grizzled Veteran General Yuan Pei, still vigorous in old age, personally led his troops on horseback. Seeing Ye Li safe and unharmed, he visibly sighed with relief.
"I greet the Princess Consort!"
Ye Li quickly stepped forward to support Yuan Pei, preventing him from kneeling, and said with a smile, "General, please, there's no need for such formality. We are deeply grateful for your timely assistance."
Yuan Pei rose to his feet, chuckling. "I merely brought my troops as backup. Princess Consort, it is you who have borne the arduous task of defending Lingjiu Mountain all these days. I honor your courage."
Looking at the old general's solemn expression, Ye Li couldn't help but smile. "Let's wait until after this battle is won before we sing each other's praises."
