C322 parting admonition

Wu Shan was the eldest son of the Wu Family. Even though the old general was usually extremely strict with him, going to the southwest was a long and arduous journey.

He knelt in front of Old General Wu and cupped his fists and said. Grandfather, your grandson is now an adult. It's time to build a family, so Grandfather doesn't need to worry about me. If I go to the southwest, I will definitely win this battle and bring honor to the clan. "

Even his eyes flashed with the light of what Wu Shan had said. But Old General Wu did not answer, he only furrowed his brows and stroked his beard.

"Grandfather, Wu Shan will be the commander in chief in the battle and will receive orders from the Emperor. He has great martial arts skills, and you have even personally taught him the military strategy and tactics. Therefore, you do not need to worry about him. " Seeing that, Duan Yunfei quickly walked to the front of Old General Wu, tightly hugged onto her arm, and spoke to him in a spoiled manner.

Seeing the two children begging for mercy in front of him, Old General Wu's heart softened.

"Come, my good child, get up and sit by my grandfather's side." Old General Wu walked down and helped Wu Shan up before sitting down beside him. Although Old General Wu was old, he had trained in martial arts for many years, but his body was strong and healthy.

"Old General Wu glanced at them and he couldn't help but shake his head as he laughed. You kids, I'm already this old, but I still have to follow you guys and worry for who knows how long. "

"Grandfather is our pillar of support, of course we have to worry about us all the time. How can we let you rest?" Hearing Old General Wu's words, Duan Yunfei nestled against her arm and said to him in a tender voice.

"Girl, you're no longer young, but you're always like a child. What should we do in the future?" Old General Wu stretched out his hand and lightly poked Duan Yunfei on the forehead, but the corner of his mouth couldn't help but reveal a joyous smile.

Every time Duan Yunfei appeared in front of Old General Wu, she would always act like an unreasonable child, and tightly pull on Old General Wu's sleeves, "Even if I grow up a little more, in front of Grandfather, I should still be a child. I'll be Grandfather's child in the future."

While Duan Yunfei was speaking, Old General Wu started laughing, the wrinkles on his face also relaxed and he laughed heartily.

It was already winter, and the moon was in full. The wind outside was biting cold, but the house was very warm.

Old General Wu sighed, lowered his eyes and said to Wu Shan: "Good child, now that you are an adult, you can make decisions for your own matters. Since you have received the imperial edict, you must know how to wage war on behalf of your country. The battlefield is extremely dangerous, and you must be careful of everything.

"Many thanks for grandfather's concern. Your grandson will definitely bear that in mind." Wu Shan bowed towards the Old General Wu, and said those words to him word by word.

"Southwest is the land of the miasma. You must take care of your body and not let your parents worry about you." Old General Wu sighed, extended his hand out and patted Wu Shan's shoulder. No matter what happens, in the eyes of the Old General Wu, Wu Shan will forever be a child.

Seeing the tears in the corners of Old General Wu's eyes, Wu Shan also started to sob. He heavily kowtowed to Old General Wu and said in a low voice, "Please be at ease grandfather, your grandson will definitely take good care of himself."

Old General Wu nodded his head, but he could not say a single word. He choked with sobs, and could only pat Wu Shan's shoulder.

Because of the matters of the Imperial Consort Duanshuo, the Old General Wu felt heartache, and was unwilling to continue to establish himself in the imperial court, and also forbid his brothers from joining them. In order to cherish his favorite daughter, and also to protect his own child will not be restricted by the court.

But ten years of drinking ice was not enough to cool one's blood. After all, the Old General Wu was a warrior that fought on the battlefield, so he truly hoped that someone from the future generations of the Wu Family could fight on the battlefield to report back to her clan.

But Old General Wu knew very well that Wu Shan's father did not have the temperament that allowed him to stand in the imperial court, and so he gave him some poems and songs.

However, Wu Shan was different from his father. He had been intelligent since young, and knew how to weigh the pros and cons, but his intelligence was pure. He was the most suitable child in his family to stand on top of the imperial court. Now that Yuwen Di gave him this chance, and allowed him to lead his troops out to the battlefield, the Old General Wu was very pleased.

"Kind child, when did the emperor order you to go out to battle?" Old General Wu hesitated for a moment before asking Wu Shan.

"We will set off tomorrow." Wu Shan raised his head and looked at Old General Wu.

Old General Wu's lips slightly moved, as though he wanted to say something to Wu Shan, but in the end, he only said "Alright."

"Grandfather, it all happened so suddenly. No one knows about the death of General Liu Feng yet, but paper cannot contain the fire. How long can you keep this a secret? Once the soldiers in the army find out about the death of General Liu, it will definitely cause an uproar in the army. That's why royal father was in such a hurry to send Wu Shan to the southwest to stabilize the situation. " Duan Yunfei explained to the Old General Wu from the side and kept comforting him, "Grandfather, royal father will order some people to escort Wu Shan all the way to the southwest tomorrow. Therefore, you don't have to worry. "

Old General Wu slightly nodded his head, but his fingers continued to rub, as though he was thinking about something important.

After a while, Old General Wu took a light sip of the tea on the table, and then, said to Wu Shan and Duan Yunfei: "I'm tired. I want to go and rest for a while. "Let's take advantage of this time to chat a bit more. I don't know when Wu Shan will be able to return from this trip to the southwest."

Only those who had experienced the battlefield would know how cruel and dangerous it was.

Therefore, Duan Yunfei and Wu Shan did not reply, and only indifferently nodded.

"Wu Shan, after leaving this palace city, your sister will be beyond my reach, and I will not be able to protect you anymore. You must take care of yourself." At this time, Duan Yunfei and Wu Shan had already walked out of the Old General Wu's study room. Duan Yunfei lightly patted Wu Shan's shoulders and said to him with a smile.

Wu Shan also laughed along. Although he was experienced and knowledgeable, he was still a weak crowned youth. He looked at Duan Yunfei, her eyes filled with stars.

The two talked for a while. It was getting late and Duan Yunfei still had to rush back before the palace gates could open.

"Since that's the case, big sister will leave first. We'll take care of each other and meet again later. " Duan Yunfei cupped her fists and said to Wu Shan.

Wu Shan nodded as he watched Duan Yunfei disappear into the twilight.
