Wang Jin raised his hand to touch the back of his head, feeling at a loss, yet he spoke with a mix of admiration and resolve. "In the beginning, I was moved by what the Princess of Zhen said. The Princess of Zhen declared that the moral code of the Bai family's army is to never abandon any comrade who has shared life and death on the battlefield. She said that even if the person trapped on Huoshen Mountain that day wasn't Commandery Princess Gaoyi, but anyone in the Jin Army willing to sacrifice themselves to save their comrades, she would risk her life to save them. She said this was not about good or evil, nor about whether it was worth it. This is faith. This is morality. I felt deeply shaken and wholeheartedly agreed. That's why I am willing to follow the Princess of Zhen."
Even now, when Wang Jin recalled Bai Qingyan sitting high on her horse, proclaiming those words decisively, his heart burned with fervor and excitement.
