"What do you think about this, Your Majesty," asked Lê Quốc Thuyết, muttering as he leans his head towards the Emperor.
"Quite surprising. Especially at how a rebellion has risen at this time," the Emperor replied.
"Should we deploy troops to help them quell it," asked Major General Kiều Dũng Hiền.
"Seems like a good idea, but I don't have the slightest conviction that it is the right path to take. We have other matters to take care of back home, anyways."
"Good answer. However, I feel like we should let Major General Hiền and his attaché, Captain Đắc, to stay behind to observe how it unfolds, and possibly, how the Vionnans handle the situation. Could be a sign of good will to our Vionnan friends," Thuyết replies.
The Emperor takes a deep breath through the nose."
"Major General, what do you think?"
"I think it's an idea that I'm willing to take. We may as well get some ideas for a future conflict with Aichi, if that ever escalates. If we are to be dragged into this, then we'll do whatever we can to defend ourselves."
"Well then, that's settled. Mr. Thuyết, you and I will talk to them about what we have suggested whenever they give us a chance to talk."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The Amabassador and the Emperor turn their heads towards the King and Forsworth while the General and the Engineering Officer conversed silently with each other about the future motive.
