Early the next morning, Prince Yan left the Glazed Pavilion in high spirits. He went to the morning court and then assisted the crown prince in handling government affairs.
Prince Yan and a group of his trusted ministers were discussing the border war in the Surveillance Office.
Prince Yan was looking through the battle reports sent from the border. His face lit up with joy. "General Shen Xingxiu has made numerous outstanding achievements in battle, killed countless enemies, and has excellent virtues. He has the demeanor of a great general," he said.
The ministers echoed his words and praised Shen Xingxiu one after another.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Prince Yan's mind. He picked up a writing brush and quickly wrote the character "De" on a piece of rice paper.
"De" means having excellent virtues and being of high moral character. If Shen Wei gave birth to a boy in the future, he could be named "Li Chengde".
