After speaking, he eventually turned his head to glance at Shang Ruyi, then looked at her obviously swollen belly, and said, "Well, since the army has already departed, I must return to the palace to report these matters to Father Emperor, so I shall leave first."
Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi both cupped their hands in salute to him. He also cupped his hands and then turned to leave.
