Two days later, Su Rong set off for the border.
The elderly Duke stood outside the military camp, watching her leave. His expression was no different from the day he sent off his own grandson, appearing extremely reluctant.
A close soldier whispered, "Old Duke, will Lady Su Qi never return to the Capital City?"
"No." The old Duke shook his head, "I regret not paying enough attention to her when she was in the Capital City."
He sighed, "Even if she comes back, her stay will be fleeting. She won't stay for a few months like she used to."
The soldier understood, thinking he loved talent and regretted not teaching more. He knew that when the fourth prince was very young, the old Duke taught him personally and wanted to keep him by his side every day. After suffering, the fourth prince had to cry to his elder sister who later influenced the duke to limit the lessons to half a day.
He comforted the old Duke, "You still have the Crown Prince and the other two princes."
