Chapter 367 Reluctant Farewell_1

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Duke Liang, who had been waiting anxiously, finally received the Emperor's decree. He was appointed as the provisional Admiral of the Navy. Although the rank was not as high as that of his son, he was still very satisfied. After all, one must eat one bite at a time, and this was a step forward; everything would get better. Duke Liang, reinstated to a position of trust, was filled with boundless enthusiasm and determination to accomplish great deeds and regain imperial favor.

This development made some uncomfortable. Despite his flawed integrity, Duke Liang was essentially promoted under the guise of demotion, still trusted by the Emperor. Being sent to build the Navy on the coast would entail hardships for a while, but once accomplished, it would be a great achievement, and promotion would be imminent.

Upon receiving news, relatives and friends brought congratulatory gifts, including the Qian family.
