There was no enmity between father and daughter, let alone Yuwen Di's most beloved daughter.
Xiao Yang was startled, and at this moment, he finally relaxed. In no time, the Red Luan Courtyard was back to how it was before.
Seeing that, Mu Chuyang also rushed over, and took out the letter in his hand, and told Yuwen Di: "Your majesty, this is a letter Wu Shan sent from the southwest, it said that the first round of the southwest was a victory, and that the soldiers' morale is great, I believe that before long, they will definitely obtain complete victory."
"Although the imperial government's report is a bit slow, they should be arriving soon." Duan Yunfei hurriedly said to Yuwen Di.
Yuwen Di gently nodded his head, after reading through the letter carefully, he revealed a pleased smile.
"As expected of the children of the Wu Family, geniuses that lead troops at such a young age. Let Wu Shan fight on the frontline properly, if he returns victorious this time, we will definitely not mistreat him. " Yuwen Di happily clapped, and then gently sighed. Now that Wu Shan is standing in the temple, I will definitely bestow upon him the title of a high official, and in this way, your matriarch will definitely be comforted by the fact that he is still alive. "
Hearing Yuwen Di's words, Duan Yunfei also nodded her head.
When Imperial Consort Duanshuo suddenly passed away, Yuwen Di fell seriously ill, and his hair turned white overnight. He decided to resign and return to his hometown. From then on, he would not stay in the temple. Until now, when Wu Shan reported his family's services and rushed to the battlefield, only then did the Wu Family slowly appear in the temple once more.
Yuwen Di spoke while sighing, he patted Duan Yunfei's hands and said: "Little Thirteen, now that Wu Shan is not at home, if you are free, you should go and walk around Wu Mansion more. Your grandfather is old, you should go and accompany her more, just treat it as mourning for your mother."
Back then, when the Imperial Consort Duanshuo passed away, Yuwen Di had always felt guilty towards the Wu Family because of this matter, but at the same time, he was afraid of causing the Old General Wu to grieve over such an event.
Duan Yunfei naturally knew what Yuwen Di was thinking. She raised her head to look at Yuwen Di and nodded at him.
In the afternoon, after Yuwen Di left, Duan Yunfei ordered Xiao Yang to prepare some pastries. After exiting the palace city, he walked towards the Wu Family.
"It's been some time since I've seen grandpa. I wonder if that grandpa is doing well." Duan Yunfei laughed as he spoke to Xiao Yang, "These few days, Wu Shan is not in the manor, so there definitely isn't anyone else who can play chess with Grandfather."
"Old General Wu has been on the battlefield for many years, and his body is top-notch. Princess, you don't have to worry too much. " Xiao Yang consoled her from the side as he looked at Duan Yunfei.
As the two of them were talking, the carriage had already reached the entrance of the Wu Mansion.
Duan Yunfei looked outside through the wind curtain on the carriage. Then, she turned around and nodded towards Xiao Yang. Here we are, let's hurry down. "
Xiao Yang supported Duan Yunfei off the carriage and quickly went forward to knock on the Wu Mansion's door.
Seeing that it was Duan Yunfei who had come, the servant who opened the door immediately bowed to Duan Yunfei, then said to Duan Yunfei with a face full of joy: "Thirteenth Princess, the old general was still talking about you in his mansion yesterday. I didn't expect you to come today."
Duan Yunfei nodded as she walked into the house. Didn't I hear grandfather's mutter and hurried over? ""
Just as he walked into the courtyard, he saw Old General Wu sitting in the courtyard, playing chess by himself.
Duan Yunfei stood in place as she looked at Old General Wu, and was in a trance for a moment. Old Madam Wu had passed away prematurely. Old General Wu was a person who was nostalgic for old age. After being unwilling to take in concubines or continue their marriage for so many years, he had always been the only one living. Now that he was old, there was always someone who could take good care of him.
"Grandfather, it's so cold outside, why don't you know to add another set of clothes?" Duan Yunfei walked over and pretended to be talking about the Old General Wu, and quickly ordered some people to take back the jacket and place it on the Old General Wu's shoulders.
"I was just wondering why that magpie is calling out so many times today. So it's because there's an honored guest coming to visit." Seeing Duan Yunfei walking over, Old General Wu's smile was about to overflow.
Duan Yunfei walked over and tugged at Old General Wu's beard, then said mischievously, "Grandfather has always been the best at lying. Where did the magpies come from? It's just making me happy. "
The Old General Wu didn't argue with her and pulled her to the chessboard, saying: "Come, quickly come and play chess with Grandfather for a while. Ever since Good Child left the capital, there has been no one in this house who can play chess with me, an old man. "Since you've come here today, you can just accompany Grandfather to relieve his boredom."
Without saying a word, Duan Yunfei was pulled onto the chess board and played chess with the Old General Wu.
She was always penitent, but she always lost.
"I'm not playing anymore. I'm not playing anymore." At the end of the game, Duan Yunfei decided to move the chess board away and angrily said to Old General Wu: "Grandfather's chess playing skills are unrivalled, even my royal father admits that he can't win against you, yet you are using your age to bully a little girl like me."
Old General Wu was not angry. He reached out his hand to stroke his beard and said: "This old one is indeed taking advantage of my seniority, but Thirteenth Princess's chess skills are truly too lacking. When your mother was your age, she was able to take at least fifty moves from me.
"Mother would naturally achieve something at a young age if you were to personally guide her. "I'm not like them. I only have those stubborn old fogeys in the palace to teach me how to compare their chess skills with my grandfather, so as their disciple, how can my chess skills compare to theirs?" Duan Yunfei sat opposite of the old general and spoke in all seriousness.
The old general did not agree and shook his head at her. Teacher Fu led the way in, practicing his skills alone. You did not do well yourself, so how can you blame Master for not teaching well? "
Duan Yunfei looked at the Old General Wu in a huff, but the old general was still smiling non-stop.
"Grandfather, Cousin Wu Shan sent a letter home, saying that he won the battle." Duan Yunfei took the letter and placed it in Old General Wu's hands, and said happily.
Old General Wu quickly took it and read it word by word, his fingers continuously trembling.
Ten years of drinking ice wouldn't be enough to cool one's blood.
As Old General Wu looked at Wu Shan's vigorous and powerful handwriting, he roughly thought back to those golden days.
