How could Duan Yunfei not understand Yuwen Di's painstaking efforts? But compared to her blissful life, Duan Yunfei was more concerned about the lives of millions and thousands of citizens.
"Father, your daughter knows that you are doing this for her good. On the battlefield, the men of millions of Jin Country are fighting for our country. Although Yun Fei is a woman, he still has the heart to repay the nation, and I hope that royal father can fulfill that wish. "
Duan Yunfei said as she kowtowed to Yuwen Di. Unlike the kowtowing she received in respect in the past, Duan Yunfei's kowtow this time was extremely serious, even more so than when she was in the Growing Age Ceremony.
"Royal father, you can only accomplish this because you are willing to part with your family. If the borders were to fall, not only would the people at the borders suffer from the war, the entire Jin Country would also be left in a state of panic. If we get to that point, how can we talk about our daughter's safety and happiness? "
What Duan Yunfei said was not unreasonable, but Duan Yunfei did not know how terrifying the fighting on the battlefield was. Even though Duan Yunfei had heard of the cruelty of war, she had never seen it with her own eyes.
Even though the General Wei Yuan was taking care of him, Yuwen Di was still worried. However, from Duan Yunfei's performance today, it seemed that she had no choice but to agree.
"Yun Fei, Royal Father knows that you have always yearned for a military life and wishes to do something for the citizens. But right now, with General Wei Yuan on the battlefield, I believe that he will not be able to obtain the upper hand. You don't have to worry, you can trust your uncle with his strength."
General Wei Yuan had been in the army for dozens of years, and had become famous even when he was still young. These years, the moment the enemy had heard of General Wei Yuan's name, they had all been terrified. Duan Yunfei didn't doubt General Wei Yuan's strength at all, but she didn't want to think that she could only sit still and do nothing else. The feeling of being unable to do anything was simply too unbearable.
"Father, please follow my daughter's wishes."
Since ancient times, which parent could be more difficult than a child? Yuwen Di was the same, his persistence had moved Yuwen Di, and in the end, Yuwen Di had decided to allow him to head to the front lines.
"Forget it, Royal Father cannot force you. Since you really want to go, then go." But it's still not enough. If the next time we get news from the front, when the situation isn't good, you can go with the other generals. During this time, you can stay in the Red Luan Palace and continue your confinement. "
Yuwen Di said that he had promised Duan Yunfei, but he still showed an attitude of "delaying one day is one day", and he didn't forget about this matter either, so he agreed.
"Have you discussed this with Chu Yang?"
Duan Yunfei and Mu Chuyang's marriage had just been set. If Duan Yunfei were to head to the front line at this time, who knew if Prince Mu's Mansion would be happy about it, Yuwen Di would ask.
"No, I only found out about it this morning, so I didn't have the time to tell Chu Yang about it yet. Father, your son still hopes that only you know about this. "
Duan Yunfei did not do the same thing that she and Mu Chuyang were doing during the cold war. Yuwen Di was already upset, but Duan Yunfei did not want to add to his unnecessary trouble.
"But Chu Yang can be considered your fiance now, for such a big thing like this, you should still discuss it with Chu Yang."
"Father still wants to say it, didn't you help Wu Shan hide it from your son?"
This made Yuwen Di speechless. Indeed, before Wu Shan left, he had asked Yuwen Di to not let him know about the matter of him going to the battlefield. Wu Shan had never been on the battlefield before, if Duan Yunfei knew about this, who knew how worried she would be.
She would probably be the same as the current General Wei Yuan. Ever since the General Wei Yuan and Wu Shan had gone to the battlefield, the General Wei Yuan Mistress had never thought of eating nor drinking. Every day, she would pray in front of the Buddha, praying for the father and son duo to return safely. When warriors went on the expedition, they were most worried about their loved ones who had been left at home. If they couldn't receive any news, then they would be even more worried.
Although General Wei Yuan and Wu Shan would send a letter to the General Wei Yuan Mistress every three days, even if they had to ride fast, it would still take them seven days to receive it. In the days when they could not receive the letter, the only thing the General Wei Yuan Mistress could do was to hold back and wait for the news that would come from the front lines.
"Father, I have grown up. I know what I am doing, and I know what the consequences will be. Think about it, your son begged you for so long before you agreed to allow your son to go to the battlefield. If Chu Yang knew that, he would definitely stop your son like you do, and then your son would have to earnestly say a lot to persuade him to allow your son to do this. If he agrees, I'm afraid that he will still go with me, and when that happens, the ones who oppose me will have the Prince Mu and the Prince's Wife Mo. "
Duan Yunfei did not need to think too much into it. In the Prince Mu, he was the only son, so if Mu Chuyang were to go to the border, he would have to think about it many times.
"Forget it, Royal Father can't beat you. Alright, you should hurry back and finish the rest of your confinement. When your confinement is over, you will be free to go. At that time, if you are needed up ahead, you can go. Father will tell General Wei Yuan about this matter. " Yuwen Di put on a serious expression, "Remember, nothing is more important than your safety."
Duan Yunfei fiercely nodded her head. She promised Yuwen Di that if she were to go onto the battlefield, he would definitely take care of him and not let him get injured even a little bit. He would definitely return safely.
"Then I'll take my leave."
When Duan Yunfei stood up, due to kneeling for a long time, her legs had become numb, and she almost did not stand.
"Creak — —" The sound of a door opening could be heard, and Eunuch Li looked towards Duan Yunfei who was walking out of the imperial study.
Duan Yunfei and Yuwen Di's conversation continued for a long time. Eunuch Li had long been waiting outside the house with worry in her heart.
"How is Thirteenth Princess? Your Majesty didn't punish you, right? " Eunuch Li stepped forward and asked with concern.
Duan Yunfei smiled at Eunuch Li, "Eunuch Li, don't worry. Father did not punish me for my crimes, so you don't need to worry. Eunuch Li, it's cold outside, you are old, don't stay here and guard it, there are still other young eunuchs here.
"Thank you Thirteenth Princess for your concern, these little brats do things, this old servant will not be at ease, it's better to just watch from here." On the other hand, Thirteenth Princess, since you have finished talking with His Majesty, you should head back earlier.
Eunuch Li felt that the Sage Tang in Duan Yunfei's hands should be cold by now, so he wanted to give his the item to protect his from the cold, but was rejected by Duan Yunfei.
"This is a gift from Xiao Gui, right? Eunuch Li should keep it for himself."
