The matter of the West Leung Mission entering the capital was more or less settled, Duan Yunfei had always been bold as a feather, her heart as fine as a feather. Yuwen Di was always satisfied with the matters that were arranged by her.
Duan Yunfei accompanied Yuwen Di by her side. After thinking for a while, she asked Yuwen Di: "Father, this son has been busy these past few days with handling the matters of the diplomatic mission entering the capital. I have not asked you anything, how is the battle in the southwest right now?"
Duan Yunfei hesitated but she did not continue. She wanted to know what the battle in the southwest was like, and she also wanted to know how Wu Shan was doing right now.
A daughter cannot be a father. "Even if Duan Yunfei did not say anything, Yuwen Di would still understand the meaning behind this. General Liu Feng had just been buried, the situation in the southwest was still unclear. However, after the barbarians from the southwest learned that the General Liu Feng had passed away, they didn't even want to relax their pace of attack. Right now, the enemy was eyeing them covetously.
"Although Wu Shan is smart and heroic, he is still only a child after all. To face such a trial now, this son really doesn't feel at ease." Hearing Yuwen Di's words, Duan Yunfei became a little anxious and kept rubbing his fingers.
Seeing Duan Yunfei's worried expression, Yuwen Di reached out her hand and patted Duan Yunfei's shoulder, consoling her, "The situation in the southwest is complicated, it is not something that can be dealt with in a day and a night. The reason I ordered Wu Shan to head to the southwest is because I hope to temper his will. You don't have to worry too much. "
"Duan Yunfei nodded, sighed and continued to answer Yuwen Di's words. It's just that Wu Shan is Wu Family's hope. Grandfather is already old, if something really happens to Wu Shan, what should I do? "
"Yuwen Di hesitated for a moment, before waving his hand at Duan Yunfei. You don't have to worry too much about him. I will have someone take good care of his safety. Furthermore, Wu Shan is smart and wise, and is an expert in martial arts.
Hearing Yuwen Di's words, Duan Yunfei didn't know what to say. She nodded and helped Yuwen Di gently hammer his leg.
"Imperial Father, it has been about half a month since the Fifth Prince arrived in Jiangnan, right?" Duan Yunfei suddenly thought of the Fifth Prince's matter and asked Yuwen Di with his head raised.
"Yeah." As Yuwen Di answered his question, he could not help but sigh, "This child has never left the capital before. This time, when he left Jiangnan City, I can't help but worry."
"The matter of the passing of salt is related to the very foundation of the country. Since royal father handed this matter over to the Fifth Prince, it is natural that I can see how much royal father valued the Fifth Prince. Although Imperial Father was worried about the Fifth Prince, the Empress was still too happy to wait. "I heard that she is trying to rope in ministers from all over the country so that she can have the Fifth Prince's power in the imperial court." Duan Yunfei pretended to say unintentionally to the Emperor, with a tone filled with disgust.
"How did you know?" As the saying goes, the hearer means nothing. Right after Duan Yunfei finished speaking, Yuwen Di's expression became ugly. He gently held Duan Yunfei's hand and asked Duan Yunfei with an expressionless face.
Seeing Yuwen Di's serious expression, Duan Yunfei hurriedly walked forward and knelt on the ground. He crouched down and said to Yuwen Di: "This son spoke wrongly today.
Yuwen Di actually waved his hand, and continued to ask while looking at Duan Yunfei: "We know that this matter has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to do with it. You only need to tell me, where did you get this information from? "
Seeing that Yuwen Di was insisting on asking, Duan Yunfei slowly stood up and slowly said to Yuwen Di: "Father, this matter has long been spread throughout the palace, regardless of whether it is the imperial palace or the imperial palace, everyone already knows about it, it is just that no one dares to tell Father about it."
Right after Duan Yunfei finished speaking, Yuwen Di sat down on the chair and panted non-stop.
"Father, what exactly happened to you? It's because my daughter is unfilial, you don't have to worry. " Seeing that, Duan Yunfei was shocked, and quickly walked over to ask about Yuwen Di's situation.
Yuwen Di rested for a while, before his complexion became slightly better. "He clenched his fists tightly and heavily hammered the table, filled with hatred." We were still wondering why so many officials had all written a letter recently urging us to make the crown prince soon and even making the fifth prince the crown prince. I think that the ministers saw that I had asked the Fifth Prince to be in charge of the matter of salt transportation, so they had an idea. "I never imagined that there would actually be someone who would continuously run behind the Fifth Prince's back, and that's why this current situation has occurred."
"Imperial Father, actually, things weren't as you imagined. It's true that the Empress ran off for the Fifth Prince, but it's true that the Fifth Prince has both talent and literary talent. If it wasn't for this, royal father wouldn't have allowed the Fifth Prince to take charge of this matter. " Duan Yunfei consoled Yuwen Di at the side.
Yuwen Di shook his head and sighed heavily. He kept saying, "This is all my fault!"
"Father, you worry too much." Duan Yunfei held Yuwen Di's hands tightly, and her eyebrows were tightly knitted. Imperial Father toiled all day for the country, exhausting himself to the utmost. All of this was for the's Great Land of the Mountains and Seas. Where did royal father come up with these words? "
Yuwen Di did not listen to Duan Yunfei's words, her tone was full of self-blame. He let out a heavy sigh, and then said to Duan Yunfei: "The Fifth Prince is indeed talented, but talented. Prince Mu is already old, and it's not suitable for us to continue running around and overwork ourselves. Thus, we listened to Mu Chuyang's suggestion to let the Fifth Prince take over this matter, but we didn't expect that it would actually cause them to have so much presumptuous thoughts. "
Hearing Yuwen Di's words, Duan Yunfei couldn't help but sigh as well. Father, born in this royal family, no one can escape from the fate of facing the battle for the throne. Even as a noble empress, she could not avoid it. Moreover, the Fifth Prince is the son of the Empress, and he has the status of the eldest son.
Duan Yunfei stood at the side and said emotionally. Her lips slightly trembled, and in the end, couldn't help but nod her head. Yuwen Di could not be clearer about the dangers of the fight to obtain the direct line of descent. However, the temptation of the position of supreme expert was too great. Back then, he had never given up. And now, his sons naturally would not give up either.
"Little Thirteen, sometimes royal father is glad that you are a princess, there is no need to participate in so many scheming and scheming battles. Seeing that you are safe and sound, royal father can be at ease. " Yuwen Di hesitated for a while before he smiled bitterly at Duan Yunfei.
Duan Yunfei did not reply, and only nodded heavily.
