"Uncle, I'm really amazing," Yangyang went forward and tugged at Baili Yan, "Anyway, I want to go to Liao City with you. My dad wouldn't let me, so I snuck out on my own. I want to follow Granduncle to witness the battlefield clashes. When I grow up, I'll join the army, protect the Great Zhou, and drive away all those invaders."
For some reason, hearing this childish talk made Baili Yan inexplicably feel his eyes moistening.
Looking at the immature yet stubborn little face, he seemed to see a spirited young general many years later.
"You have such ambition, Uncle is very pleased, but you're too young now." He patted the little head gently and warmly said, "Uncle will arrange for someone to send you back to the Capital City. When you've grown up, I promise you that I'll definitely let you join the army."
