Wall, despite his royal background.
At the Great Wall, Guo was amazed by the history and the work it has done for the Chinese. The Great
Wall was made as a defense line, stretching from the plain in central china to the deserts in Mongolia. As the
captain of soldiers, Guo did his very best to fend off invaders, he fought, injured, healed and got back up. Being
a great captain is a boost of morale for the soldiers, without Guo, the Tang dynasty might have ended after some
eighty years, Guo presence had extended this to two hundred years. Guo himself had become a general in
commanding and continued to contribute to the Tang dynasty. After some twenty years, Guo returned to the
capital as a general, and revealed his royal identity in front of the emperor and all the important Tang dynasty
officials. His reveal of identity was confirmed by the old and most respected officials, it has also caused a lot of
rumors that the present emperor will soon fall into the hands of Guo because of hat he contributed to the country
for twenty years. But Guo didn’t want anything, he just wanted closure about his background and to bring the
sorrows and worries of the peasants to the emperor. There was something that Guo wanted to do back in the
capital. He travelled all the way to the inn, trying to thank the old lady for her inspiration, but the building was
gone and the old lady was never found. Guo was somehow sorry about not able to thank the old lady, that
became one of the things that Guo regretted for his remaining life.
