The Ruler of the Next Era

Lin Yi's voice dragged slightly. He noticed that Lin Yi had addressed him by his title in the Aslan Army, not the affectionate "Uncle" as he had in the past. This was a signal. He considered for a moment before turning to pull their relationship closer. "It's been a long time, Hao Lin. You've grown into a man. You were still hugging my legs, beckoning me for a story last time I saw you."

Hao Lin gave a light smile. He understood what he was pulling and sighed inwardly without betraying any emotions on his face. "I was still young then, General. Is Major General Lin Feng well?"

"He's been demoted to an ordinary soldier. Her Majesty the Queen gave him a chance to reclaim his honor." Lin Yi had a face full of sunshine as well. He wasn't naive to think that their relationship as distant relatives would be of any use since it involved their countries. The prince had given him due respect to meet him alone.
