Eunuch Ming hesitated for a moment before turning his head to look at Yuwen Di.
Yuwen Di hurriedly nodded, and said anxiously to the Eunuch Ming: "Wu Shan is here, hurry and call him in."
Eunuch Ming hurriedly replied as he walked towards the palace.
Actually, it was nothing urgent, it was just that Wu Shan had been out fighting for a long time. According to the rules, the Emperor had to summon him to the palace to express his condolences.
As soon as Yuwen Di saw Wu Shan, a gratified smile involuntarily surfaced on his face. He quickly stood up and said to him: "Wu Shan, this journey has been filled with dust, and we have traveled far, far away to war at the border for several months. You didn't even accompany your family members on New Year's Eve, and this has truly made you suffer."
Hearing Yuwen Di's words, Wu Shan hurriedly crouched down, and said to Yuwen Di with a righteous look in his eyes, "Your majesty, you flatter me. Many thanks to your majesty for showing compassion to the soldiers on the battlefield.
"Alright!" Hearing Wu Shan's words, a happy and gratified expression emerged on Yuwen Di's face. He looked at Wu Shan with a face full of love and affection, then continued to speak to him. It is truly shocking to everyone in the court. "
Yuwen Di spoke, and then paused for a moment, before continuing to speak towards Wu Shan: "My Jin Country's etiquette system always requires a clear reward, and now that you have done such a great deed, if we do not reward you, not only will we be criticized by the world, we will also be disheartened by the people. "So, quickly think about what rewards you might want to give me."
After hearing Yuwen Di's words, Duan Yunfei also quickly knelt to the side and said to Yuwen Di in a spoiled manner: "Father, you promised me before. "You are the son of heaven, you can't go back on your word."
Yuwen Di laughed, and nodded slightly towards the few young men standing in front of His Highness, then said while smiling: "Of course, we will not go back on our words since we have promised to bestow Wu Shan a reward."
Seeing that, Wu Shan became a little anxious, he immediately walked up to Yuwen Di and said: "Your majesty, this lowly general leads his soldiers to kill the enemy, and in the end, we have achieved complete victory. We relied on your authority and the bravery of our soldiers, this lowly general truly does not dare to claim credit, and does not dare to ask for any rewards, your majesty, please retract your orders."
Before Wu Shan even finished speaking, Yuwen Di waved his hand at him, "If you still haven't thought of what you want as a reward, you can go back and think about it.
Since Yuwen Di was so adamant, Wu Shan could not refuse anymore and could only thank the emperor for his grace.
After he finished talking about the rewards, Yuwen Di smiled faintly and told Wu Shan about the war scene. Wu Shan, although you were also fighting alongside the soldiers in the army camp, but in the end, you had never truly led your troops to war. But I didn't expect that you would be able to achieve a complete victory in just four months.
Hearing Yuwen Di's words, Wu Shan couldn't help but laugh for a bit. Then, he saluted Yuwen Di and continued to speak to him: "Reporting to your majesty, although the southwestern region's roads are rugged and difficult to traverse, and is located in the basin, it has a lot of cloudy weather. However, it is precisely because of this that we use this special geographical location as a base that we can win this war so quickly. "
Wu Shan explained his battle plan to Yuwen Di in detail, and upon hearing it, Yuwen Di couldn't help but nod his head, and repeatedly praised. It was true. Even though Wu Shan is young, I'm afraid not many people would be able to come up with such a basic strategy for battle. "
"Your Majesty's praise is too much, this lowly general does not dare to accept it." Seeing that, Wu Shan quickly bent down and bowed towards Yuwen Di.
After Yuwen Di spoke with Wu Shan for a while, he couldn't help but stretch his waist, and waved his hand at Wu Shan: "Alright, it's getting late, you guys probably have a lot of things to say, so you guys can leave first."
After they left the main hall, they let out a long sigh of relief.
The three of them chatted as they walked out of the palace.
Today, when Wu Shan returned to the capital, he was elated. She talked a lot more, continuously telling Wu Shan the things that happened in the palace city during this period of time, afraid that he would miss out any important details.
Wu Shan was not interested in what Duan Yunfei was saying, he only smiled as he listened to what Duan Yunfei was saying. After he finished speaking, Wu Shan seriously raised his head, looked at Duan Yunfei, reached out her hand to pat her shoulder, and asked Duan Yunfei in a low voice: "Elder sister, have you been well since I was not in the palace? Has the empress ever troubled you? "
The empress had always disliked Duan Yunfei, which was something the entire palace knew. It was precisely because of this that the empress's actions became even more unrestrained. If Duan Yunfei's personality was too unyielding, it would be very easy for him to fall into the empress's trap. Thus, after Wu Shan left the capital, the thing he was most worried about was the Empress secretly plotting against him.
Wu Shan had been staying in the southwest for the past few months, because he had been in contact with Mu Chuyang on official business. At the very end of the letter, Wu Shan would remind Mu Chuyang to be careful of the Empress, so as to prevent Duan Yunfei from falling into her trap.
These were all things that Duan Yunfei did not know. She did not know in the slightest that in every single ordinary day, there had been other people that had earnestly loved her.
Hearing Wu Shan's words, Duan Yunfei couldn't help but curl her lips, and then said to Wu Shan, "Don't worry, although the empress doesn't like me, she isn't the one at fault, and I'm not her meat either. Therefore, she can't do anything to me either."
Seeing Duan Yunfei's complacent look, Wu Shan could not help but smile, but he did not reply, and only nodded at Duan Yunfei.
Duan Yunfei glanced at Wu Shan, as if she suddenly thought of something, and quickly said to Wu Shan: "Wu Shan, I went to visit Grandfather a few days ago, and he really misses you. It's not easy for you to return now, so quickly go home and accompany him."
After hearing Duan Yunfei's words, Wu Shan nodded, and raised his head to look at Duan Yunfei, he then continued to speak to her after a long while: "Elder sister, I was not in the capital for this period of time, thank you for taking care of Wu Mansion, and also thank you for taking care of Grandfather. "Now that I have returned to the capital, I will definitely be at home filial piety to grandfather and his family. You don't have to worry about me."
As Wu Shan spoke, he slightly nodded towards him.
